Never had a problem with it, just make sure the games you want to play are currently supported and that you have access to live for any updates.

I'd probably kill for a new space sim by the Wing Commander or Freespace guys, but the genre seems pretty dead at the moment. The only straight space combat game i've seen recently is Square's 'Project Sylpeed' for the 360, which was pretty laughable. Come on guys, my joystick is getting rusty.

In many ways they're less so, and the hippies give them no less of a bad name than the extremists from any other sect. However, in this case, threatening to make it rain because Homer Simpson is offencive to a chalk man with a boner is quite funny. Maybe Chalky finds Homer erotic?

Just compare the sales of KotoR vs Jade Empire.

Go go russian coding!

There's loads of these chalk outlines around that part of that countary because a lot of the bedrock is chalk, so it's easy to make pretty pictures. The White horse of Westbury is one of the better known ones, but I don't think it attracts dirty sexually confused hippies to it, due to its lack of obvious phallus. Though on the other hand, maybe it attacts some *very* sexually confused hippies. Or Pegans, or whatever.

That I had a good derisive chuckle at Evanescence the first time their garish, ridiculous single "Bring Me to Life" turned up on the radio. In my mind, it seemed obvious that anyone with half a brain would find the song instantly unbearable due to its melodramatic, quasi-Christian airs. I was horrified and indignant to learn that people had actually found something to like about this band. "Don't worry," said their misguided supporters. "Not all of their songs have that retarded rapping guy." I was furthermore assured that much of their material was less reminiscent of Linkin Park with a female singer and more subtle and piano-driven. Their single, "My Immortal" seems to be an example of this style, although the nasal, crooning vocal sounds not like the work of a credible rock band but more like the self-produced vanity album of the girl who shakily squeezed out "Bridge over Troubled Water" at your high school graduation. Some of the more impressionable male Evanescence apologists even sought to convince me that the lead singer was hot. I suppose she's decent if you like ladies who walk that dangerous, razor-thin line between "obviously used to be fat" and "will probably be fat again very soon." It's also fairly bewildering to me that anything about this band could be misconstrued as "gothic" (as it somtimes is). She certainly doesn't have the advantage of being marginally hilarious like some of the other bands the media has mistakenly labeled as gothic, like Marilyn Manson. There is absolutely nothing mysterious or alluring about her voice; a careful observer would realize that a single such as "My Immortal" is nothing more than a vocally inept version of a dodgy pop ballad worthy of being a Christina Aguilera b-side. To call something so tame, boring and conventional "gothic" is an illustration of just how far our culture's standards have slipped. I'd imagine it takes every ounce of Peter Murphy's willpower just to get out of his coffin at dusk and face such a world.

Does this mean you're going to quit music forever?

If you love it so much why don't you marry it?!

This game is pretty cheap on steam, is it worth picking up? I played and enjoyed the original.

The best part was when he forgot that he was performing a psychology experiment and not, in fact, running a prision.

Yup, nothing like a nice phallic hotdog.

Not far off, my ex is Finnish, so I spent about 9 months there over the course of three years. Despite that, those are about the only 4 words I can actually remember I miss Finland!

And you're a kalkkuna juna vittu sienim

With people like this in the KotoR camp you KNOW it's the right choise.

It's balanced by the fact that I selected none of them. The glass is up my nose. Help.

hahahahahahhahaha, nobody likes you.

Hi Grape, wanna be friends?

Agreed on both counts.

That was witty and contextual. You're right though, Freelancer rocked, but I would have loved several additional features to it, namely, the ability to step outside the 'lone trader' mindset and actually set up your own factories/traderoutes/shipyards and possibly finantial empire. Though this will no doubt change the dynamic of what is, on a mechanical level, a very fun game. On the flip side, this is the mechanic that X3 seems to use, while lacking the 'ease of use' of Freelancers gameplay (for example, don't know about you, but I loved Freelancers autopilot). Of course, I can make many of the same comments about Freelancer vs Eve. This is to say, I would be very interested in a Freelancer 2, depending on what they decide to do with that franchise.

Pork is the meat of the devil.
