  1. Our government is considering putting a cap on on the number of new liquor licenses given out because they think we drink too much, and it's bad for our health. Nanny state indeed.
  2. Wow that's a really bad photoshop job.
  3. The Israli soldiers are saying it themselves. Even if they didn't their track record of disregard for civilian casualties is well established. It's a more or less unavoidable result of letting an army loose in one of the most crowded places on earth.
  4. I was not impressed with the gameplay footage.
  5. me too. i think my fever broke, however, as i just started sweating. taks Have they started prepping for the pig flu winter assault in the US ?. My stepmother is a nurse and she is part of the group that's supposed to go out and claim bodies when we all start dropping like flies. I dunno how serious it will be, but they are rolling out the full 'outbreak' countermeasures. disinfectant handspray passed out to all workplaces, big red signs about how to avoid transmission, etc.
  6. Yes, quite. I remember when I came to see my dad after he had died and he looked at peace for the first time in months. It all seemed perfectly natural. Everyone else was crying constantly, I didn't until months later when I started having dreams about him. Funny how these things work.
  7. What would I want with anybody's avatar ?, even this Felicia woman you seem to be smitten with.
  8. Vats is silly, I think most of us agree, only I don't think Obs will be allowed to touch it since it was one of the big selling points for the game. It tries do retain action points and elements of turn based combat, but it doesn't work. It's a free for all, the enemies just stand around and watch their heads explode. I think we can hope that the size of your stimpack stash is not going to be the all overshadowing factor of whether you live or not. Were I king I would replace VATS with a called shot feat. One shot at increased accuracy/crit with a cooldown factor, say 4-5 seconds of actual game time.
  9. I thought it would turn out to be a Geforce card and not some meat thingamajig though.
  10. Nice effort, but I think we all saw that coming from miles and miles.
  11. Homeworld, or Homeworld Cataclysm. The homeworld 2 AI punishes you for playing well and rewards you for being a tard. It's called 'adaptive AI' and it completely ruins the single player experience. On the plus side the fleet management works a little better, squadrons instead of single strike craft, easy selection, etc.
  12. I thought Knowing was a cheesy hack job, but that's just me I guess. Predictable, dramatic high points marred by over acting, no sense of humor about itself. If you like the premise I recommend this instead. Anyway, giant robots > aliens. I don't blame Cage's performance though, I mean he can play a depressed drunk very convincingly. It's more a case of that truism 'never work with kids or animals'. I much prefered trees going apesh.it.
  13. Yeah, but like the man said, it's got nothing at all to do with how the game will look/be like.
  14. It's completely indestructible, and I'd wager there are specimens still out there well over 30 years old. Unfortunately it doesn't have a USB jack, but I think there are still adapters around.
  15. I dunno what dodging bullets and trying to avoid informants and the Chinese authorities, who would deport them back to the death camps automatically, has to do with immigration. These are people risking it all to get out of a hellhole and down to Seoul where the South Koreans accept them automatically as citizens.
  16. "Buh, buh, if the USA is so great, how come people are running away to the Soviet Union??? Riddle me that!!!"- You, circa 1930. You remind me a bit of what the Danish Communists used to say about East Germany, without actually having met any non regime East Germans of course.
  17. Because in practice, all communist regimes have been totalitarian. And to be honest, I think what you're aiming for is socialist democracy which, while not unworkable, teetters far too close to totalitarian for my liking, because the government has so much raw power. In Italy and the former Russian republics municipal government has been run by communists (this is while the country is democratic) as far as I know it worked tolerably well.
  18. If North Korea was so fab I kinda doubt people would risk their lives to get out, and they continually do.
  19. So theres wardogs, what else. Your basic D&D bestiary ?
  20. It's a standard hack/slash, just as Half-Life 2 is a standard FPS, and NWN2 - Mask of the Betrayer is a standard RPG. If you base your opinions on how things look... I've played Halflife 2 and I'd say it was your basic FPS with some puzzles and race stages thrown in for variation.
  21. What's 'dynamic touch', are we talking about an input device. Where does it go on you.
  22. I don't know anything about this game, but it looks like your standard 4 party member hack/slash. I could go for something like that. I guess it will come down to the DRM. I don't want anymore games requiring constant internet connection or only 3 hardware profiles/installs.
