  1. Just because she couldnt remember a father dosnt mean he didnt have one. A jedi mindwiping her makes far more sense than any sort of immaculate conception. Heck I've known people who were just drunk not be able to remember who was the father of their baby
  2. That adds even more limits, since it would have to run in a way as to not conflict with the comic from the looks of that. A comic would be the ideal way to tie up the story without needing another game though. Which would give a KOTOR III that had nothing to do with the comic a much wider appeal. Anyone who is geeky enough to care about what happened to Revan will be geeky enough to buy a comic.
  3. Even if there is a PSP version it wont be the same game. Looks like prices dont drop much in Turkey.
  4. Funny, I see it and even bolded it... And no I didn't say in any way that European/Americans made AK's. Just needed to say a guntype and the AK is often used by the poor and the terrorists... Get yourself a freakin' grip, and stop believing that capitalistic BS. Africa is poor because we abused it, don't start all the "they caused it themselves" crap... because they never got the chance your precious economics got due to their own natural resources (being stolen by us) Yeah, they were at war. But they didn't have guns, tanks and armies to start killing each other with. Also they moved all along. Ever heard of a traveling country? The Tribe leaders had alot less people under them than leaders of the current age, and thus war led to less dead people... They could be, but as said atleast 50% of their valuable land is already used for us. Also a large part for the food. And if they really are so bad why don't your precious US-Army take them down. They cared alot about poor oppressed people, didn't they, despite the oil in a country? Well, tot the one that still likes us. Damn, own point undermind. Bet you hate that... And almost the whole world hates the US, and you still get tourists, so that other point is also invalid... Then take them off...damnit! Your president loves to do that no? And even the countries without currupt government are poor. How do you explain that if the cause of their poorness is currept politici, eh? Ehm, like said, Americ was a colony for colonisation, and not "take over and steal the resources" Wouldn't already wealthy inhabitants like the US-ones could pay that better than the invaded unwealthy ones? Doesn't change that they shouldn't be there in the first place... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are you refering to a specfic incident ? Because police dont go around shooting people 8 times for no reason. Well anything like an AK-47 wouldnt have been around then either. I thought you were refering to something else. But since your just making up stuff that historically didnt exist, not much point countering it. Africa is poor because it's mismanaged. It's not BS it's just that simple. Like a successful company can be mismanaged and driven to bankcrupcy, or like an almost bankcrupt company can become a success. By trying to blame outside agencies, you simply enable Africa to excuse it's mismanagment. Thats technology for you. They got it long after the Europeans left. And since they already had a taste for war before the Europeans arrived you cant blame the Europeans for that either. I'm not American. And you are a hypocrite. More hypocrisy Most of the world dosnt hate America. They may envy America, but they still make US citizens feel welcome most of the time. Americans will get some evil looks if they visit Hiroshima though. But they are very friendly to the British. So was Africa until it turned nasty. People used to love going to Africa. I'm actually glad because it stopped a lot of speices becoming extinct. But you basically realised another reason why these countries are poor. They put of investors with their anti whatever attitudes. Why would I hate that you undermined your own point? It means now you accept that it's not enough to just blame the Europeans for Africa's condition. Taxes are taxes, more people more tax. So America should be changing African regimes according to you. But not one that has slaughtered millions of it's own people was a known aggressor and was stockpiling weapons again..
  5. There is no profit in a nuclear war. The real danger there are the countries with only one or two weapons whether they use them, or they pass them along to others for terrorism . MAD will keep any of the big players in check as long as you dont have a total nutter in power (without the safeguards to keep him under control).
  6. I'm sure there is more stuff you would play if you bought one. Especially now as most of it is cheap to buy used. Resi 4 , if you dont have a GC (GC version is better).
  7. Not going to happen KOTOR is too self limiting. Final Fantasy while a franchise only has one game that directly related to another in the series (FFX to FFX-2) and if you notice thats an addon , not a sequel. I dont think anyone likely to make KOTORIII has the guts to ignore the fans the way Square did (or we would all be playing Sephiroth MK V not FF XII). It's not just the characters and the story that changes either. But the core game system as well. With SWRPG being "retired" KOTOR may as least be able to get away from the PnP ruleset.
  8. Yes it's fantastic. Not as unforgiving as Ninja Gaiden. But similiar in many ways. Kratos is a real "bad dude" character but remarkably still likeable. And the end battle is just awsome.
  9. Security. Irresponsible to leave before the infrastructure is in place to replace your own. And dont give me that "But if the Americans left the terrorists would stop" stuff because it's clear they are just as happy blowing up Iraqi's.
  10. Funny because I dont see the word like anywhere there. Did you read your own post ? Thats just an excuse blaming others for their failure to strike a balance. Countries predate Europe (in case you didnt know). Also tneir tribes were in effect countries anyway. And those tribes warred with each other just like countries did. Their leaders a mismanaging period. And which ones do Dutch people settle and bring wealth too ? Which former colonies to people go to and inject millions in tourist wealth. If your going to hate people, then dont expect people to go live in your country or even visit it. Africa could have emerged , but their leaders are too self serving to allow it to happen. They want things the way they are because it serves their purpose and allows them to skim off the overseas develpment aid and aid in general. The Americans were not just English. They made peace because they were smart enough to realise that holding a grudge would hold them back and put people off going over to America. The king used to heavily tax all the colonies to pay for the constant wars in Europe.
  11. Because it is only true if you take a sufficiently macroscopic view, which they are not doing. They are dealing with the here and now. One of the interesting things about democracy is that it can always throw a curve ball. When you live in a world with nukes its best to act first simple as that. Police dont wait for a terrorist bomb to go off before they arrest people now do they ? Many countries leaders dont want democracy. Unless everyone in the world is on the democratic route thats just not going to happen. So creating democracies one country at a time is about all you can do. Actually I blame the UN as much if not more than the US for what is going on in Iraq.
  12. Sorry and all but were out of Africa before the AK was invented. So if their fellow Africans didnt give a toss about them anyway you cant blame the Europeans in the way you would obviously like to.Don't know where you got that idea I belive the world is inherently uncaring not that people get what they deserve. Well I did tell you that the people most responsible for screwing up Africa are the leaders. No they still have tons of resources. The people in charge just dont use them effecively. No they actually do like the queen , british rule wasnt that bad apparently. That makes no sense. Rather than trying to warp what spoonfeeding means try another term. Because America recognized that trade was the key to prosperity. They made peace with Britain relatively quickly where as some of the African nations are still playing the blame game. No they just heavily taxed what they did produce which is the same thing.
  13. Yes. Except Africa wasnt safe and it certainly wasnt peaceful. The Africans did that to each other too. Or finding an attractive market and supplying that market. A lot of the former colonies are actually still quite fond of us. There is more support for the monarchy there than there is in Britain. It's not spoonfeeding though is it. Tell that to all the beaver , and the tabaco plants, cotton (it's a long list). America was just as "exploited" as anywhere else.
  14. The official word is there is nothing wrong with sex only attachments. So likely Jedi have a string of illigitamate kids running about the Galaxy. Anakins father was probably a Jedi who then mind wiped his mother so he didnt have to pay child support :D Anakins father could have even been Sidious since it fits with his plan.
  15. Oh I remember those. No Remorse and No Regret. Never could get them to work after changing the system I bought them for.
  16. Other than Star Trek the only one I can think of with a hex grid was Space General.
  17. No they are not. The people who live there, and particularly the people in charge are. No the Africans were happily killing each other before a white bloke even set foot on the place. Your "paradise" vision is just plain wrong. The people most responsible for the killing of Africans has always been other Africans same today. If captialism dosnt work why are there african millionaires that have come from absolutely nothing? If it leaves behind a democratic system then that wont be the case at all. It's unrealistic to not expect growing pains though. Those Iraqi folks who were voting didnt look unhappy about it. If anything they looked the opposite. No one spoonfeeds a capitalist. Despite your attempt at being clever.Your example even if it were true would not be spoonfeeding, rather it would be the exact opposite. Don't forget all these world powers were at one time conquered nations/colonies themselves. And I'm not American. Nor have I ever been.
  18. Way to state the obvious. If you take enough of a macroscopic view of history then change is inevitable. The US used to be a colony so it was in the same boat as any other colony except it had the will to succeed where others did not. Yes , a deal of that success was courting other European powers who were more than happy to give britain " a black eye". But much has been self deterministic and self realised. If you wonder why such a country would need a big army. Ask yourself why rich people have expensive security systems , while poor people dont. If your rich everyone wants a piece of you. Whether it's another country or some armchair jockey looking for someone to blame. Someone has to make the rules and unless you want every tin pot dictator running around with nukes, I cant think of anyone I'd rather have at the helm. Rule by commitee, IE the UN is a joke. France and Russia were taking kickbacks to stall for Iraq so not like they had any less self interest than you claim America has. Saddam broke the rules, no point shedding any tears for him.
  19. Not bad for a former colony
  20. Not unless a GBA micro screen is PG-13.
  21. Fix your quotes The group who is most to blame for the state of Africa is the people in charge of the African countries. Like commisar said no one has an obligation to help you. Capitalism is nothing like racial supperiority. Capitalism is about taking responsibility for your own success (or lack of) and not expecting anyone to spoonfeed you.
  22. Great, dosnt tell you if the fake personality was good or evil though does it. It's highly unlikely a paragon would fall for the greater good. Revan was more than likely a logical thinker who let logic rather than ethics dictate his or her actions. You could claim that made them beyond good and evil, but that not a lot of comfort if your planet just got wiped out.
  23. I don't think aid to the third world has helped in the long term. If anything those who keep giving them aid have made them reliant on it. At the end of the day most of it goes into the pockets of corrupt officials, or into the hands of millitia which just keeps the conflicts going. Should we remove dictators who routinely butcher their own people ? Guess thats something that you would have to ask those being butchered since it's doubtful any of us live under that sort of regime.
  24. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But do you know what it refers too
  25. Sounds a lot like one of the early Star Trek games. Try a gamefaq search. Might help jog your memory.
