Driving Manual/Stick
Here in Portugal, the question doesn't even come up. Everybody drives manual. Everybody. Even my Mum thinks auto is for wusses.

Anyone seen these shows?
I just saw a couple of clips of that on Youtube, and it was mostly awful.

What mythical beast are you?
Does "Dragon" mean boring, or something?

What mythical beast are you?
You're a hydra. You have many different outlooks on life, and know how to utilize each one to make the best of any situation. Others may mistake this for hypocrisy or even insanity, but you know yourself better than that. Indecision is your greatest flaw. Your alignment tends slightly towards *evil*. Not totally inaccurate, actually.

World stock markets plummet in tandem
It's just SUVs, all the different types of cars sold in America consume more than cars sold in Europe and Japan. USA UK Note that the figures in the UK page are in imperial MPG so the difference isn't quite as large as the figures might indicate at first. There's still quite a difference, of course.

Just got Gothic 3...
I found Gothic 2 to be great, just not very accessible, and it took quite a while to get going with the fun.

World stock markets plummet in tandem
An American car spends much more than an equivalently sized European or Japanese car. It's a question of market demands.

Which would you choose
I choose Raccoon City. It's known for being populated by very stupid and slow people, which makes surviving a lot easier. As long as a powerful, invisible grand designer doesn't hold your legs while you attack them, of course.

The Witcher has one of the best special editions ever.

Bioshock
The System Shocks had resurrection chambers similar to the ones in Bioshock, with a few gameplay balance differences that made a proper alternative to the quick save and load schtick. The differences were that they had to be activated, had a usage cost, and only restored a minimal amount of your health meaning was a free ride, and thus compensating for the advantages a simple resurrection brought. I'd say that the Vita Chambers in Bioshock are basically a broken version of the QBRMs.

Bioshock
They've already done that. In SS1 and SS2.

Movies you have seen lately
Is that just a joke referencing your silly book thing or is it actually true? I saw The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford the other day. I found it a bit uneven, but still worth watching. When the director is trying to ape Terrence Malick, everything kind of falls apart. However, he pulls off the pivotal scenes quite awesomely. Also the acting is generally top notch by all the cast members.

Finished FF Vs TTR, today after having it lying around on my hard drive for the longest time. Great fun even if Tombstone is way too overpowered.

Tactical, realistic FPS
That's from the guys who did Flashpoint, right? I prefer urban settings, though.

Sega and GPG announce Space Siege
Everyone talks about how SS2 with coop is awesome, so I'm not sure that's true.

Tactical, realistic FPS
Better AI used to be the point of waiting for new Tactical FPS titles for me. I kept hoping for some tactical game to show with properly good AI. Never happened, unfortunately.

Tactical, realistic FPS
Could you elaborate? Also, Google came up with Ground Branch.

Tactical, realistic FPS
That's still a rumor, though, and X-Com is usually a strategy game. Also R6 now has health regeneration among other things which make it a game to avoid for me.

Tactical, realistic FPS
Yeah, but that came out 2 or 3 years ago. What's new? Ghost Recon was quite realistic, but I heard that when they added the AW, the realism bit was axed. Isn't this true?
-
Tactical, realistic FPS
Now that the Rainbow Six threw the tactical planning map and the realism out the window, are there any FPSs out there, or in development, that follow the original Rainbow Six formula? For those that don't know, this means having the aforementioned tactical map, and an heavy emphasis on realism with accurately modeled weapons, proper damage models, and no healing during missions.
