  1. While I've never seen Metalocalypse, I am quite familiar with Tenacious D.
  2. You should lie down and die now Sand. Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, Day of the Tentacle, Psychonauts, Monkey ISland. What kind of freaking gamer are you? Also, no PC?? Men, fy fan!!!
  3. http://gamevideos.com/video/id/15547 Absolutely forking unflappably, humongously awesome! I don't recall the last time I've been so impressed by a video. I have to see if I can get this with higher resolution.
  4. Oerwinde still hasn't taken a shot at this, and Tale was wanting to go to war.
  5. I think it may be like she has good movement memory. She just memorizes complex movements. She could learn how to play a guitar by watching someone playing, but wouldn't be able to learn by reading a book describing it. This is me guessing, of course.
  6. Micah's cousin has got an awesome power! Claire really needs to lay off the makeup.
  7. He said hipocritical, meta, which I guess means he was talking about someone who judges horses too harshly.
  8. Why are all New York traffic cops, fat black women?
  9. I just checked your saved game, and again, well done. Also, if you were going to convert to a religion you should have chosen Confucianism, seeing as we have three cities with it, and only one with Christianity.
  10. All is well apparently, although things get a bit cryptic without any screenshots. The only thing I don't really condone is the converting to Christianity, but it's nothing too serious.
  11. If Tale ever gets to wage war in this game, I promise I'll say "Sic 'em up, lil' buddy."
  12. Yay! If you decide to start the war, get those catapults out to the field of battle before going after Hammurabi. And remember that our military is mostly stationed near Peragus. Also, there's one axeman up north with a couple of extra exp. points, that might come in handy. I'm thinking you should take out the capital first, to cripple their unit production capability, but that city with the flood plains might also be a good first target. The bugger will start whipping like crazy, as soon as you attack, so those two cities should be taken out as quickly as possible. Don't forget to raze the two cities closer to our empire. Of course, if you feel you shouldn't attack during your 20 turns, don't.
  13. I don't know, it sounds like your average Bioware RPG, with much better and more detailed animations, plus a new combat system which is the thing that interests me the most in the game. But, even this review that is obviously filled with hype, didn't have much good to say about the combat.
  14. You don't suck at spelling. Your spelling is actually awesomely entertaining.
  15. I'll be quite amazed if those assertions about the game's story turn out to be even remotely true.
  16. Rosie? Is there something going on between you two that we don't know about?
  17. Starbuck's coffee couldn't keep a hyperactive flea awake.
  18. Propagandhi - I want you to vant me Awesome cover.
  19. The pseudodog isn't one of those regular dogs, but a larger one that is much rarer. One place you can find one of those is near the cave where you go to pick up an armor for the guy you saved in that first assault mission. Note that the icon for the tail in the inventory is actually quite dark, so you might not notice it's there.
  20. It's not just that there's a big prestige factor associated with the big cars. I have here a book filled with fifties American magazine ads, and one of the things the ads used as a major selling point was simply the size of the car. The bigger the better seemed to be the mantra.
  21. Ha ha! I remember that. Regarding fuel efficiency, if someone needs a bigger car, they should buy one, no problem there. What annoys me are the people who have no need for bigger cars and still drive around in the city in their big SUVs. Incidentally, if you disregard hybrids, European and Japanese car models are still more economic than American models. This seems to be mostly a cultural difference between the US and the rest of the developed world. A diesel Golf TDI, for example is a durable, and relatively fuel efficient car. It's more expensive, but its gas usage mitigates that. Check this out: http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/noframes/16708.shtml http://www.dailyfueleconomytip.com/?p=186 It's just silly.
  22. I'm not so sure about that one. I'm thinking the ones who do follow the Gore mantra get more press because by and large the press wants it to be true because it fits their political agenda. By and large that is. The press of the world is not solely left leaning but the majority of it is. As far a cutting carbon emissions, thats easy, replace coal burning electric plants with Nuclear plants. Easy, and much much more enviormentally friendly. But no the envoirmentalist leftists don't want to hear that either. Science and politics make as poor a mix as religion and politics. The Gore mantra? It's not like Gore invented global warming. A long time before Gore ever picked up the issue, everybody and their mothers were already talking about it, at least here in Europe. As for carbon emissions, one thing that could also be done, would be for Americans to stop making and using cars so incredibly uneconomical, compared to European and Japanese cars. The average mpg of American cars is ridiculous and pointless.
