It doesn't work with STEAM, only the regular version. EDIT : I can't install the regular version because the disks are ****ed.

Before you download this new full mod version be aware that this installer may not work for steam users. I am sorry about this but there is not much I can do to support Steam versions of Kingdoms I actually have the non steam version, but the disks are scratched. It won't install.

There might well be people who deserve to die for their crimes, but government shouldn't exercise that power. We should insist on being better than them, for our own sake. There are all kinds of problems with using the death penalty, it can become politicized so death penalty cases are fast tracked through the appeal process and politicians and politicians to be can appear to be tough on crime, or it can simply be used in totalitarian regimes to remove undesirables. It's not a direction one would want to go in, and besides we can manage without.

Maybe so, but if you had to make a difficult climb to save your life, your survival instance would trump the phobia and you would just get on with it, like throwing someone into a pool who doesn't know how to swim, you learn because your brain doesn't leave you any choice. I suppose skydiving lessons as a cure would only work if someone kicked you out of the plane.

The thing about planes, if it does go wrong there is nothing you can do to rectify the situation. If it's just a tall drop you can take a minute and try to come to terms with the vertigo and fear.

The charge he is wanted on is 'being a grabass'. That is to say other types of lude and unwanted behavior than rape. Obviously he should return and face the music, but this is just not like drugging and then raping a minor. I have no doubt Polanski is guilty, but I think it's possible that some of the many enemies Assange has made set him up. It doesn't seem so fantastical a notion to me. Also, why are we still talking about an extradition to the US. There has been no request, and there isn't going to be one, or am I missing something.

I'd say that getting a look at how governments interact at a high diplomatic level serves a useful educational role. It's not often we get to see what they really get up to before hearing the polished version, and why are we crying about the US' wounded pride, who cares about that. They made a website and said 'come to us with your leaks', and lo and behold some people did, and once in a while it created a stir. Why has this become about blaming the messenger. It would have been someone else if not Wikileaks.

umm. He uses his shotgun to frighten off animal carcasses ??? Were you trying to be funny ?

Medieval total war : Kingdoms. It's the best of all the Total War series by far, the Crusades campaign in particular.

No, this is, simply put, bull****. If you eat fewer calories than you burn, you lose weight. More than that, we simply don't understand. The biochemistry is too complicated and has not been studied well enough. Carbohydrates and fats are ultimately calorie sources. Your body burns them. In the short-term, the only two things that matter for "health" are protein and calories. In the long term, there are certain trace amounts of various vitamins you need. Past that, we simply don't know - why do you think the status quo for "healthy eating" changes so often? Human nutrition is really ****ing complicated, and we don't fully understand it. This is about converting less of what you eat into fat on your body after you have lost weight. Meat is tasty and you eat less of it to get full than you do pasta and bread, and it's something that people can stick to, trying to stick to 'boring' meals after a diet usually doesn't last.

Why would he be extradited to the US, as I understand it no one there is bringing charges. It's beside the point that assorted pundits and lunatics have called for his execution, that's just the colour of political discourse right now, it represents no official stance. I suppose it's entirely possible that some one set him up. One can't really know.

Well duhh, it's a children's book.

They like to cook things in oil, Thai is more about the wok.

Eat meat and stay off the carbs, that's what will make the weight stay off. Starving yourself won't work, and it will also decrease your energy levels.

You see, here's the thing - we don't know why trans fat is "bad," or even if it is "bad." We don't understand the biochemistry. Current nutrition is based on some very shoddy science with large, poorly-controlled correlative studies. I'm quite sure that someone can get their daily limit of calories from McDonalds (let's say, 2000 kcal/day), and with a bit of vitamin supplements, be completely fine. The only real problem might be sodium. You know they couldn't technically prove that asbestos was bad for you for several years after the connection with cancer and respiratory illnesses was made, a lot more people died as a result. Do I want to chance it ? Not particularly. Trans fat is linked with heart disease according to Wikipedia (that's not scientific, I know) but it does say that most governments recommend a cap just for that reason. I'll take their word for it.

Yeah, didn't seem like a big scoop to me. The doctor warned him in the beginning, but I guess there would have been no movie if he had done the sensible thing.

Plus the US has no limit on trans fat content, best described as tasty man made food industry industrial waste, personal choice and all that. It's bad for you, and it's worse for you in the states.

It's not all retarded, just most of it. Could be worse I suppose. Anyway I got tired of all the micromanagement that is apparently a big part of the appeal for most people. Don't get me wrong, the more ways you can interact with the environment the better, these all add to the game, but can I just have a button to press instead of going into the inventory and eating 20 sausages - one at a time - to recuperate from my last encounter. Logic dictates that there is a skill trainer out there somewhere who can teach you to take a dump and another harder to find one who can teach you to wipe your arse.

I can't stand people who chew gum and smoke at the same time. Choose one dammit, both.... it's just unnatural.

Yes, because damn those graphics sucked. And the physics. And the world design. And the voice acting. Blah blah blah. Sometimes this board makes me so tired. Are you all idiots? No the graphics were good as well, that makes two things. It's all for nothing if it can't hold your interest though. You don't seem to be very demanding in the various elements that make up a good RPG, more power to you. Some kids play the best with an empty cardboard box. Just don't go around calling people 'idiots' who need at least a small smidgen of things like characterization, plot, atmosphere etc. to get going. It's not fair. For me, in 99% of Two worlds two encounters my first sentiment was 'I don't care whether you live or die, get to the point or I'm pressing escape'.

Blade of Darkness was indeed awesome, and this time it's not just nostalgia talking. Too bad it can only run on win98 virtual machine, doesn't work in compatibility mode, and it's also very prone to driver related crashes. I wish GoG would give it a workover. Two worlds 2 has the best melee system I have seen in a long while, unfortunately it was the only good thing about the game.

Steam has this ATI driver wizard where you just press a button and it does everything itself, including restarts. I love it.

I got Risen, it's garbage. I just can't get over the bad voice acting. Everyone talks very slowly, like they were hit on the head, or maybe a result of island in-breeding ?. They sure spend a lot of time going on about the bleedin' obvious. I have taken to pressing escape instantly and then trying to reverse engineer the conversation from my list of replies, then checking the journal if it was a quest. I guess I can gift it. (j/k)

I'm eating carrots. To lose weight. It doesn't work if you eat them by the bag though, also they contain a vitamin you can overload on, or so I hear.

Unfortunately you are such a positive and 'glass half full' kinda guy that you like everything, which is a good thing of course, just not when it comes to game recommendations.
