Humodour

I just finished reading Consider Phlebas by Ian M. Banks and it was pointless, boring, and unmotivating. I am not inclined to read any more of his works.

You'll run as fast as KENYANS.

But its got ELECTROLYTES! I often drink powerade. Can I recommend an energy drink for you then?

I found poo in the sandbox.

We don't go to Ravenholm.

Yeah. In other words: it was realistic. I think some people are used to FPS aiming where high energy particle scientists can pick up rocket launchers gauss guns and immediately know how to fire them 100% accuracy at small, fast moving headcrabs. It's been awhile since I played Deus Ex but didn't weapon skill only affect aiming when you were actually aiming and not shooting from the hip? It's been a while since I played Deus Ex as well but I believe it actually reduced the size of the targetting reticle permanently when you increased the skill level, thereby giving you a better base to start from when moving, and taking a shorter time to hit maximum accuracy when still.

For reference, the GDP of Norway is $250 billion.

Why the **** is this case being administered by a military court? Though I guess that's not the most absurd aspect of this idiocy. Africa has some ****ed up states in it.

Yeah. In other words: it was realistic. I think some people are used to FPS aiming where high energy particle scientists can pick up rocket launchers gauss guns and immediately know how to fire them 100% accuracy at small, fast moving headcrabs. The Deus Ex system is the best thing available when you want to introduce RPG stat elements into the game because it's still based on your skill. Bloodlines's system was atrocious (auto-aim, and your chance to hit randomly decided) - you could shoot point blank and still miss.

I don't have that problem.

Your loss. It's one of the best around.

*fap fap fap*

Ours just passed a bill placing something like a 100% tax on 'alcopops' (soft drinks with alcohol in them) because "think of the children". Apparently this will stop binge drinking, because teens aren't smart enough to buy a far less expensive bottle of boubon or vodka + lemonade or coke.

What is communism? Seriously, answer it.

Yeah the black guy looks freaky.

My GF is not a fat guy in a thong.

Not a lie. There has never been a good MMO. Those that had a shred of worthiness (and at this particular moment in tim I'm basing this off of the E3 trailer of TOR) all brutally murdered good franchises, thusly failing. MMO's are some of the most successful computer games of all time. If I was, say, Blizzard, I'd be pretty happy with my 'failure'. You don't need an MMO to brutally murder a franchise. Franchises are overrated anyway. If something has been round long enough to become a franchise it has probably already been brutally murdered and looted for spare organs.

It's not an online check - there's simply no LAN capability. If you want MP play, you need to go through B.net.

I just calculated it. You can fit 374.713724 Israels inside Australia.

You're right, it's probably more like 1000 Israels.

Best solution is to throw it out and buy a PC.

t Aristes, they specifically said they are removing LAN to "combat piracy". Look up Bashiok's post on it.

Did you know 64-bit Vista is Identical to 32-bit Vista? They just turned off some features in 32-bit so they could sell them as seperate products for license reasons. Typical Microsoft. http://www.geoffchappell.com/viewer.htm?do...ense/memory.htm

I love Europeans.
