Hey the government says so, who are we to question it right? You can question the government, and seek to change the Law, but until the Law is changed then you must obey the Law or face the consequences of breaking the Law.

Dead Space is Resident Evil 4 with gameplay that isn't bloody awful and a few System Shock elements. It's worth a playthrough, especially at the current low price. Mirror's Edge can be awesome, though. Get both.

Howw is that not a positive?

I'm just pointing out that generalizations aren't very helpful in individual cases. Obviously, Polansky's actions are more than reproachable; however, they don't reflect a universal rule that sex between an adult and a teen is always terrible. Incidentally, I don't think laws regarding sex with minors distinguish between the genders involved. It would be interesting if such a distinction happened to be proposed.

If some 40 year old woman sexed me up when I was 13, I would have been ecstatic, proud and congratulated by my peers and family.

I fully subscribe the content of numbersman's posts.

This is the Alpha Protocol board, so try stick to AP related threads when posting here. Feel free to this discuss the general subject of game delays in the C&C section of the boards.

Oh, I wasn't aware about the drugging bit. Against the will is always a no-no in my book. And that wiki quote doesn't sound nice at all. The story I'd heard was that the mother wasn't ignorant about the whole deal, and that the kid wasn't all innocent.

Personally I don't advocate the notion that everyone under 16 is a naive baby, so the question is what exactly happened between Polanski and the kid. However, in the eyes of the law he is definitely a criminal, obviously, so he should be punished if caught.

I have, through the selling of my old PC components, mitigated the cost of the new ones by more than 50%.

Don't forget there are two versions of Fifa 10, the 360/PS3 one and the PC/Wii/PS2 one. Only the 360/PS3 version is worth getting.

SoZ had generally awesome music.

Wait, wasn't Battlestar's Apollo an actor to rival Dushku's prowess in acting incompetence?

I have a female friend who's into morphophilia.

Huh, apart from special secret battles like the Weapons in the FFs, JRPGs are usually mindlessly easy, requiring only a rubber band around the attack button.

It's not bad news either. It's just news and fairly meaningless at that. We don't know who Michael Foster is, or what he meant by it. Maybe he means that AP has good combat as opposed to about every other action RPG out there.

I raise the What Are You Playing Now thread. Feel to play around with it, in its zombie unlife. Spelunky is addictive. And awesome.

Well, the 3d map sucked, but other than that the demo was good. I hit the thread over the head with a two handed mace. The thread is closed.

We understand.

All around the world millions are declaring their undying love, singing paeans to someone's beauty, describing a person in wonderful, perfect detail while thinking "I could do worse". People don't just choose the richest or the prettiest partner or the one with best personality. Most(all?) people settle for someone. Someone within their proverbial league, someone they can strive for without too much work/money/selflessness. People are lazy, scared, generally incompetent and unable to face the reasons behind their choices. No one's together with a perfect 10, everyone's married to a 5 and everyone knows it.

Keep your fantasy to every other game released, ever. This is a game set in the real world.

Pretty good? That's like saying that that Beethoven dude wasn't a bad composer. Or that Psycho was kind of an enjoyable movie. Or that the Sistine Chapel was a fairly nice bit of painting. Or that Alpha Centauri was a rather engaging game. I think I got my point across.

1984 To a God Unknown Old Man and The Sea O Anjo Ancorado The Trial The Metamorphosis Crime and Punishment Good Omens Of Mice and Men Foucault's Pendulum A list of books. Or an attempt at giving myself airs of intelligence.
