  1. I would go 'Only i America' but I can't really, after Brevik. All of that for 15 minuites of fame. What an ****.
  2. Disturbing to say the least, but it raises an interesting question. What happens when you will be able to buy more life with money. In a general health sense we are already there, but when the very rich become immortal. Will it be time to reimagine the monetary system, will a revolution succeed, or will they divide and conquer like they always have.
  3. Well alrigth if they came to me begging for an eight-some I might not turn them down, if it was a slow day that is.
  4. As bad as windows is my experience of MacOs is that everything has large shiny buttons, there is no context menu on the right click button and you can't do anything if you are not signed into Itunes. Can you even still install from disk or is it all Appstore now.
  5. The strength of the series is in the feel, the level design and the exploration but appart from that its a shooter and it gets quite challenging at times.
  6. It all comes back to being absurdly obsessed with he superiority of the Russian race though. Maybe he got picked on in school.
  7. No wonder they went raiding whenever they had the chance.
  8. I'm enjoying it on the whole. I like that you can kill almost anything with one well placed shot and that you die when caught flat footed. That is to say, when you have run out of win button, or bullet time as it were. There are still a few griefs about it that keep me from loving it. The weapon shifting is wonky. Mouse wheel would be preferable to the mini menu. Why does the game take away your carefully collected guns in every single cut sceene. It get's a bit irritating. The golden guns minigame is lame. Why would you want to complete that and make all your gun textures ugly. The mouse speed gets borked when you are prone or in some of the scripted slo mo events. The rail shooter sequences are boring, there is no spatial awareness, no tactical movement. The story isn't great, I could live with that but most of the 15 hours of gameplay is interspaced with unskippable cutscenes every five minuites.
  9. Surely it's Ich verstehen dich nicht. Subject, Verb, Object. Declarative sentence standard order.
  10. Anyone played Day Z ?. Zombie survival mod for Arma II, collegue was raving about it today.
  11. You know what they say about Korean girls, if you want them you have to beat their father at StarCraft. Swoon
  12. PS: I played Ultima 8 once for 5 minuites, don't care how hard Bio is going to bend it over the kitchen sink.
  13. A game can blow though. That counts. Games rape me all the time as of late. It's simply another connotation of a word, it's not incorrect in any sense. Grammar usually has a right and a wrong answer for you, language usage, however, is its own arbiter. We make these changes long before they ever make it into a dictionary, and by then they are usually last year's meme.
  14. Yeah I remember those That's genuniely scary. As is the hair on the hobbits' feet. Moving around with a will of its own.
  15. I tried it but got annoyed with the puzzles.
  16. Spec ops : The Line. Thanks for turning me onto this forum. Got Max Payne 3 for some more adrenaline fix.
  17. It only works as long as these educations are marketable. For the top 10 maybe they still are, but people who have to pay their own way might choose another school. So you wind up with schools full of people with rich parents rather than talented individuals and eventually they erode their own brand. It's been a suggested consequence of the economic crisis anyway.

  19. It's pretty good, although they kinda cheated by pretending the game has melee. You just stand close to an enemy and press a power button which leads to a cutscene. That's not really melee.. it's a cutscene. Anyway stealth with an updraded silenced pistol is a very satisfying way to play. It's got great atmosphere too.
  20. You're shooting US soldiers. Not sure how often that has been done before in military themed FPS'. You are chasing a colonel 'John Konrad' who has gone native and disobeyed orders to complete the evacuation of Dubai, nice to know the devs are putting their college educations to use, and my AK47 doesn't have a single fire mode because apparently you are not allowed more than two per weapon. It's pretty good (albeit cover based) gameplay, except when you die because you tried to duck behind a chair that that didn't have the cover property. It would be better if your squad wasn't immortal, but I manage to forget about them most of the time and they seem to know not to not ruin the game for me by being better at dispatching the enemy than me.
  21. That's Matt Damon ? He looks badass.
  22. Not really a Civ guy. I like SINs, especially Rebellion, but would infinitely prefer something more Homeworldy I think that's what they call a contradiction in terms.
  23. Careful, or you're gonna get "heat" like that other Canadian, too. Peter Dinklage's identical twin is in it, or they forgot to credit him for it on IMDB.
