  1. 35 gigs is a lot. That would take whole days to get for the average internet connection. It's keeping me from getting it on steam anyway.
  2. Aside from the fact that they probably can't make the engine work, think WW1. It's still got massed infantry and cavalry, the Uhlans were expressly banned from being reformed in the treaty of versaille. Early tanks wouldn't be a problem, biplanes and zeppelins would. The air would be the new combat theater, not a bad selling point. It's an incredibly rich environment.
  3. I don't know if the new engine justifies a new game. Shogun Total war was the first in the series and it's very dated now. Rome 2 will look similar, high resolutions and impressive looking campaign map, but similar.
  4. So, any guesses on what the next Total War game will be. American civil war probably. It's still got line infantry and cavalry, would not be that difficult to adapt the engine. There's already been two Japanese titles so I don't think we will be seeing China or Korea as a setting. Everything else has pretty much been done once before.
  5. I don't want to sound like your respective dads but I think the term 'get a life' applies.
  6. Wasn't that great to begin with, hard to get worked up over.
  7. Looks good, but a trailer is often a completely different animal.
  8. Democracy; dictation by majority. Not that I think becoming a properly governed country with health care for everybody, not just the rich, is that terrible. Give it a generation or two and you won't be looking back. Progress is often painful.
  9. I think "Frightened" has just taken over He's dressed as a powder ganger and running straigth at you. How could you not put one in his head. Didnt everyone do that.
  10. Well it can't have Max Von Sydow, he must be a hundred years old now, on the other hand it doesn't have Stallone either, which is a plus all things considered.
  11. yep. Alien 3 is kinda boring though. They are all trapped in that prison planet dump so it's a bit predictable and doesn't change pace untill the last half hour or so. Alien 4 overcompensated, everything is cartoony dual wielding action. Totally ruins the atmosphere.
  12. England out on penalties. Some things never change.
  13. It really pisses me off that I'm required to pay for the upkeep of our state owned TV. If it was ONLY public service then fine, but it's bloody danish X factor and overpriced new offices for everyone. All the journalists and anchorpeople are effectively enployed by the population. Now if only we could fire all their asses as well.
  14. Don't be a pu.ssy about it. Makes you look distinguished, unless you are blonde in which case it just looks kinda lame.
  15. Valhalla rising is very low budget and has practically no dialouge. For what it is it's a pretty awesome achievement. The people who voted it into the worst ever Danish film category are nincompoops. What you don't get is production value, what you do get is atmosphere and inspired acting by Mads Mikkelsen.
  16. There are only two things I hate in this world; People who are disrespectful of other peoples' cultures... and the Dutch
  17. The HUD looks like Max Payne.
  18. Ok, but the cameras were not mounted on the drones.
  19. meh. I'm done with this game.
  20. 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.
  21. Very cool
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. 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.
