  1. So why is "God" a proper noun, when referring to the Judeo-Christian-Islamic deity, but a common noun when referring to all other deities?
  2. I propose an experiment for people who don't know what Vegemite is: Take a slice of bread and place it on a plate. Next, open a can of beer. Pour it all over the bread. Now save the concoction it until morning. When morning comes, eat the bread. Tasty? Vegemite is kind of like that, only worse.
  3. Don't forget that Australians have Vegemite, which negates any positive factors in the Human Development Index.
  4. Audiosurf. Damage Inc. and Shout were great.
  5. Audiosurf. Anyone want to be my friend?
  6. Brunettes, although if a pretty blonde comes knocking at my door, I definitely ain't going to complain.
  7. And it doesn't really serve any purpose either. It's just uninspired filler.
  8. Assassin's Creed is pretty repetitive... :sad:
  9. I don't know if AA affects performance too much, but your PC should be able to handle that and then some.
  10. Assassin's Creed. I've just completed my first assassination in Damascus, and I'm having loads of fun. Sticking a knife in the back of my target, and then running away was quite awesome. I went into this tunnel thingy, climbed up to the wooden beams, and then jumped from beam to beam until I reached the end of the tunnel, grabbed onto a metal bar, and stylishly leaped into a haystack below me, where I remained hidden for a while until all the soldiers dispersed. The escape sequences are kind of like that awesome Tangiers chase scene in Bourne Ultimatum.
  11. After checking your system in the specs thread, I have to say that unless you require a monstrously large screen resolution you should do fine. I bought the game today, and it runs fine with everything maxed at 1024*768, on my puny PC with a 7600GT and a P4.
  12. Kagain was the dwarf with a shop who only cared about monies.
  13. I don't know how your regular life goes, but in my regular life, I've never managed to maintain 6 different sexual relationships, including a marriage, concurrently without all the utterly dedicated lovers ever finding out about it, even if I'm having sex upstairs with one of them, while the wife is downstairs playing chess with another lover of mine. The role playing options in the Sims 2 are awesome.
  14. Isn't that what gaming is all about?
  15. Nope.
  16. Redlynx Trials 2. I really, really suck at it, and yet I can't stop playing. Anyone here plays it as well? We could start an Obsidian team.
  17. I got a job today, translating National Geographic documentaries. Woohoo!
  18. I'd like to see Battlechess again.
  19. RedLynx Trials 2. It's awesomely hard.
  20. Also, Caesar III.
  21. It's a kind of street cred factor. Like how Bioshock's image was improved by being associated with System Shock 2, even if the majority of gamers have never touched SS2.
  22. Because I feel like it: Final Fantasy Tactics was a dumbed down Tactics Ogre. Xenogears had no proper gameplay to speak of. Suikoden II was an awful game, only considered good because it's usually to compared to the mind bogglingly bad Suikoden I. Phoenix Wright is an Hentai game without sex scenes, and a similar standard of writing. Final Fantasy VII had awful writing, a crap plot, crap characters, and crap gameplay, Also, like every other FF game, FF7 was hopelessly dull, repetitive and constantly threw superficial narrative drivel, deeply infused with a healthy dose of horrifying pretentiousness at the player's face. F.E.A.R. spent the whole time trying to be scary and failing miserably. Feel free to do something similar with my picks for best games.
  23. I can see you are a man who enjoys variety in his life.
  24. Stephen King - angry mothers of America: 1-0 Here's the link to the Reuters story: http://www.reuters.com/article/technologyN...D30911520080409 He no longer has freakishly large glasses.
