  1. There are only two things I hate in this world; People who are disrespectful of other peoples' cultures... and the Dutch
  2. Ok, but the cameras were not mounted on the drones.
  3. The fancy manouvering is all done in GPS though. The drones know where everything is in d3 space updated 100 times a second. That can't be replicated outside the lab, it would take too much onboard computing.
  4. Amiga upgraded to 1 mb ram. First PC 300 mhz genuine pentium. 256 mb ram. 30 megabyte HDD. One of the first ever vodoo cards If memory serves.
  5. Dark Knight returns with Jeff Bridges, maybe Kris Kristofferson fingers crossed. Getting tired of Bale by now. He did a good job though. Miles better than the previous bunch. Don't care enough about Iron man to get involved. Robert Downey is awesome as Stark though.
  6. Does it really matter If the titles are all available. I know it's customary to get philosophical about book burning, but if collected human knowledge and dispersal thereof is not affected.
  7. I just stopped caring about stuff I can't do anything about. That's what usually get's people depressed. Our lives aren't that long, no need to spend so much of it miserable. Probably not the right guy to give you advice on scoring, but you need to get out there and seek it out, like Giftd said.
  8. I swear there wis a guy on staff whose only job was to find attractive german girls in the crowd.
  9. Man that was brutal. I think we had two chances in the whole affair.
  10. Naked bodies is about as far as you can take it anyway. There is a reason it's usually done in a fade to black. Showing everything would just be too stupid. Erect willies... just, no. There aren't many games that go beyond showing a little extra skin. Doesn't really qualify as sex in my book. As far as stereotyping goes, absolutely, there aren't many characters who resemble real people.
  11. Nothing wrong with a little sex and violence.
  12. Good game, lots of drama. England finally breaks the spell. We're still in it, up against Germany though. Going to be epic.
  13. The point is how much of that frantic imput goes to respond to the tactical situation and how much is just filler. There is fair ammount of filler in series like SC and Warhammer at least.
  14. I bet the old geezers who were forced to survive with puny PS1s will be saying the same thing. The load times were awful, it used an optical drive, the disks that would scratch and eventually be unreadable. we had to walk down to the store and buy a physical copy. Kids now a days have no appreciation.
  15. If you have to be all over the place with the mouse all the time it just means the controls and shortcuts are bad. There is no option to queue up construction & research, you can't set a unit to auto use its ability, that kind og thing. Maybe they made them that way so we could be dutifully impressed with people who are good at being hyper, it's still just bad controls though.
  16. This brings a question to mind. Here in the US, to drive a car you need to have a Drivers License. This document certifies that you have passed the test to drive but more importantly has your picture, name and address on it. This effectively serves as most peoples primary form of identification not only for driving but proving your age (for alcohol) or writing/cashing a check...basically everything. In your case you most likely do not have a drivers license (if your country even has such a thing) so what do you guys use for identification? Like when he "pulled you over" what did you show him to prove your identity? Does your country simply use a National identification card that serves a similar purpose as our drivers licences? The law says you are not required to produce identification on demand, of course if you are stopped in a car not having one on you is a very expensive prospect. If you don't produce identification they ask for your social securit number, which you have to give, and check it against your adress and whatever else they have in their database. This is actually better protection against identity theft than a simple plastic card with your name on it.
  17. Staying safe on a bike when you would be mashed potatoes in a head on collision is about situational awareness, red ligths, green ligths, I tend not to get bogged down in these things. Ohh and while they probably won't kill you, the most dagerous thing out there is without a doubt other cyclists.

    Full circle and now as retro cool as a taperecorder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s7pNmhnBTw
  19. That's really showcasing faults in the game more than anything else. Frantic mouse clicking should not be much of an RTS asset. Decisionmaking should be.
