  1. And now they are countries with gun restrictions which are in no danger whatsoever of some sort of armed uprising. This makes the whole observation a complete anachronism. Much like the notion that easily available guns protect US citizens from a military coup d'etat
  2. The only government that bans guns are those who fear being overthrown and only poor governments who are doing horrible jobs (ie. dictators) would truly fear such an uprising. Well that is rather obviously incorrect. There isn't a single government in central Europe that has any fear of being overthrown.
  3. Well I don't think it's a good idea to allow the general populace easy access to guns. Legislation shouldn't be based on single incidents though, there needs to be a debate about this first.
  4. Anything really, even soppy french romance movies.
  5. I don't think there is anything tangible you can do to prevent people from becoming isolated and dangerous to their surroundings. You can't tell what crackpot is the one that will flip and do something like this. That would assume a level of control and attention to detail that just isn't feasible. You can't get inside everyone's heads. As usual the answer to these nature or nurture questions is somewhere in the middle. Suspicious behavior should result in a revocation of gun licenses if it's someone unbalanced, but then we are back to getting inside people's heads again. Better to just make it harder to get guns in the first place. Maybe some required psychological tests, but then again it's hardly an exact science.
  6. The RE ports are all extremely crappy, you don't want to play those games on anything other than consoles. I dunno, it's just tradition with CAPCOM.
  7. Why introduce it by charging full price for something crippled. Doesn't seem like a smart marketing ploy.
  8. Doesn't he play at least two other characters as well. Gay times 10, Racist English teacher. It's not that funny I'd agree.
  9. Atari published unreal tournament. Thats the single most time I've spent on a game, including MMORPhegers. Don't have a spare box for LAN battles now though. Also, you don't need a disk in the drive to play UT, it will also install on 3 computers in LAN no problem. Just recently I bought the game again because I had scratched the disks to death, the serial that was supposed to be in the box was missing. I called the number in the manual and they gave me a new one. No fuss, no international calls.
  10. Yes you can, they can ban you from your account for any number of reasons if it's in the EULA, you know that thing everyone has scrolled all the way past to click 'I accept' since the dawn of time.
  11. George Benson, the man has mad easy listening skills. In fact he's about the only one able to get away with it.
  12. i might get this around christmas when I 葉ヴぇ漏れ地目音myはんds
  13. Apparently the police questioned him the day before, quite the case to get wrong.
  14. It's just that when a first post is plugging something one gets suspicious.
  15. They aren't breaking any laws, but that doesn't mean it's not offensive to forcefully silence legitimate complaints.
  16. I was checking out Mass Effect in the games shop next to the mall on my way home. Is it affected by this DRM crap with 3 installs ?
  17. Ohh, that was the shooter... Well he got his 15 minutes I guess. ****.
  18. I wonder what went through the head of the person who decided to upload it on youtube.
  19. Why do you have to use floppy drives for things like BIOS updates and Raid setups. I mean I know why, it's because some of them don't support NTFS, but really, floppies are hopelessly outdated, can't you get a regular usb stick set up as a floppy.
  20. Mere mortals are not supposed to know what nvidia is faster than the other, this intentional fog of war regarding naming policy keeps prices on older cards up. As people simply give up and think 'ohh well, it's called nvidia, they make the best cards don't they'
  21. Wow he got fat and old. I'm glad that will never happen to me.
  22. Yup. And we could all migrate en-masse to the Mac. It would be like a nest-relocation in creature Spore. Don't you mean migrate to (insert cat family OS), Mac has had PC architecture for a while now, and somehow managed to remain ridiculously pricey. If everyone migrated to Mac OS it wouldn't take long for it to be just as vulnerable.
  23. I don't see how you could not mind paying full price for something you can install three times. I have installed all the games I own 10 times at least, and as far as I know there aren't any Danish call in lines, that would mean calling overseas to beg them to be able to install the game again. This is unacceptable to me, should be to any sane person, but that's just me.
