  1. Both are friggin idiot bastard grindfeasts. But atleasth the guys who did TQ went bancrupt so they cant do it again
  2. Today I "played" X3 for two hours. That consisted of me leaving the game running while I did other things, because the game is so f'cking slow that it might aswell have been an MMO. It had to crunch all afternoon just so that I could afford ONE damn ship. Flying that ship to where I want it to go will most likely take all night, because they move so painfully slow that I could run 20km into town and back before my ship has gone from uranus to the moon. I have no other plausible explanation for the horrible design of this game other than that its some sort of passive-aggressive getback for losing "ze war".
  3. you're all disgusting and I bring you a list of quality characters: Jack Donaghue - Alec Baldwin - 30 Rock ...mm, nope, that's all Ive got. And yes, he does sort of play himself.
  4. It also depends largely on the hardware, if you have reasonanly new stuff with new drivers then it shouldnt be a problem. If you're sitting on an old ATI and a windows that hasnt been reinstalled for years.. then you're in trouble. And although GTA4 might be less buggy(consoles have bugs too, jerks) on the PS360... it looks like crap. The only way I could stand it was if I played it on my old 640x480 LCD tv so the ugliness got smeared out.
  5. Its one of the best FPS games of 2008, if not THE best. (GoW2 is TPS so it doesn count)
  6. Its an awesome game, and completely nuts that they havent released it for PC yet. If they had, it might have become more than the infignificant dot in FPS history that it is now.
  7. I read the 8-part central miniseries, and I have to agree that it was slightly anticlimatic. There was some suspense in the beginning but then it levelled out midway and didnt really recover. I did giggle hystericly at Marvels events are of very mixed quality, "Civil War" was awesome, "World war hulk" was complete rubbish and the older ones like "House of M" were quite uninteresting. The first crossovers were unreadable since they split essential story fragments over several titles instead of having a core miniseries were all the important stuff took place. DC's events are as mind-boggling as always, Ive been trying to get a grip on "Final Crisis" but its so strange thats its silly. I mean, you have cosmic rifts being guarded by nuclear-powered medieval knights riding giant dalmatians!?
  8. Mayonaise on fish si good, on salad good, on certain cold meat good also. But you dont put it on cake, darnit!
  9. You actually play it? When does it get fun? I have a big phat M6 ship and I can blast most enemies to smithereens but everything is so clunky and outright inconvenient that its more furstrating than amusing.
  10. A fundamental rule of Swedish society says that is there is alcohol, you have to drink it. It doesnt matter how foul the smell or how damaging it may be to your internal organs, it shall be drunk.
  11. I would recommend petroleumbased incendiaries over alcohols, as the energy/weight ratio is much higher, thus giving a more spectacular flame. Another reason is that any alcoholic liquid should be consumed by humans and animals attending the party, and not be wasted on setting near-edible material on fire.
  12. Truly delicious swedish christmas ham: The secret to getting a ham cooked just right with the perfect saltiness and juicyness is to cook it at low temperature for a very long time. You take a salted ham, and put it in the oven at 100C with a steak thermometer. Then you just wait(usually 12+ hours) until the core of the ham reaches exaclty 72C at which its optimal, and then you take it out and put it in the fridge. Slices should be 6-7mm thick and served with gourmet mustard. The proper way to eat english christmas pudding: one box of readymade christmas pudding 0.5 litres of petrol 1-2 matches with box Gently take the christmas pudding out of the box and place the pudding on the ground. Be careful not to inhale the fumes as they are toxic to normal humans. Then carefully pour petrol over the pudding allowing it to properly soak up the flammable liquid. When this is done, place yourself at a proper distance and light your match. Flick the match towards the pudding to light the petrol. Allow it to burn until all traces of pudding are thoroughly charred and you're done. This same recipe can also be applied to those boxed christmas cakes that are sold in ethnic foodshops.
  13. No, I feel exactly the same. If you dont love the gameplay so much that its all you care about, its hard to find a reason why you should go on playing it. ..which is exactly what I feel about X3: terran conflict. Its extremely monotomous, and those parts that are somewhat fun to play are ruined by the complete lack of user-friendliness and clunky interface. Its like Im back in 1993 when game devs thought it was all part of the experience to guess what button did what, instead of writing a coherent manual. Im really beginning to regret having wasted 40$ on it.
  14. Its a totally real language, especially to you anglicans who built your language on top of old nordic. But yes, i misspelled it "Barlast" instead of "Ballast" because i like R
  15. Kaftan = A kind of comfortable garment worn by both women and men. Barlast = Weight you put in the bottom of a ship to keep it more stable Combined, they're a boy from sweden.
  16. It follows the Bioware-formula of RPG design, with better combat, but not so elaborate characters. It's an overall good game, definitely kept me entertained till the end. Just don't expect too much, and you'll have a good time. Since you're a jerry, I will forgive your for your blasphemous statement. But does it have story and cool stuff or is it just hack n slash?
  17. Its a scientific fact that watching more than a few minutes of Angel at one time will make you permanently gay. The CIA wanted to use it to torture prisoners at Abu Ghraib but even Cheney deemed it to vile an act to allow it. Also, in 2002, an entire canadian village commited collective suicide after being accidentally exposed to the audio of a Firefly episode that was broadcasted locally over AM radio by Al-qaeda terrorists. The horrendously bad themesong was actually written and recorded by Whedon as part of a satanic ritual performed in the Manson family ranch. Listening to the song will cause bleeding from the ears and nose, aswellas as severe cases of haemorroids and the comming of armageddon.
  18. Can you use a gamepad on the PC version? If you can then theres no point in shelling out for an inferior console version that doesnt render above 1280x720
  19. Those of you who listed any Joss Whedon related characters will be shot immediately.
  20. The thing is that everyone knows Jean-Luc Picard/Patrick Stewart is the ultimate captain, but people like to argue so some people pretend they like someone else better. Edward James Olmos as William Adama in BSG is an awesome captain aswell but he doesnt have the same charm and character as Picard.
  21. THIS IS IMPORTANT! Its very important, yes, but I want scripted ingame interactive sex scenes, darnit. And you should be able to mate with any object in the game.
  22. German game design is so much more than that, it can only really be defined through examples Like how the Gothic series lacks character creation because the developers wanted pre-rendered sex scenes How in Gothic 2 pre-patch, the game was "balanced" so that you had to kill EVERY single critter(from orcs to flies) in the first area to get enough xp to level and proceed to the next area Like how in X3, the mission guide doesnt actually contain any information about your mission, just a vague hint about what they want you to do. Like in X3, they tell you to place a satellite precisely in the middle of a sector, but they dont tell you where the middle is, leaving you to play intergalactic "pin the tail on the donkey" until you randomly stumble over the right place Like in Kult, the "intro" is the short text on the back of the box the game comes in. The actual game doesnt contain any information whatsoever who you are, where you are and what the hell you're supposed to be doing. In Sacred 2 they spend perhaps a day lining out the story of the game and 8 months working on a cloth simulation system. Thats german prioritizing. ...add to that the general below-the-bar quality and unplayability of most gerry games (which is caused by the fact that theyre made for german players and german players are completely nuts)
  23. But will it have german game design
  24. I wonder if words taste the same to all Synaesthesiacs or if its individual. It would be cool if someone compiled a dictionary of wordtastes
  25. No, people who complain about those not liking comics is trolling, not people who tell trolls to get a life. I only said your trolling skillz were bad. Its like your not even trying. The key to good trolling is producing a lengthy but completely ludicrous argument to support your baitpost. That way you will both attract potential victims, and be able to laugh at the fact that people are seriously trying to refute your silly arguments. Its like with the flying spaghetti monster, its so silly that even the slightest attempt from the enemy to counter-debate it will result in an immediate fail.
