Gorgon

Sounds like the game is so piss poor the greatest worry is that people will have a chance to play it before they buy it. Remember back when every self respecting game had a demo.

I think I had my fill of farming during my stint as a MMOGpheger.

They make a lot of money though

So, I would need 4 HDs for raid 1+0. I think I'll just buy another HD of the same make and put raid off for now. Money is kinda tight.

I played through Thief 2 Deadly Shadows on Gametap, no complaints, it seemed to work fine, it has a limited free mode where they tease you with related games you would have to pay for. The cost is negligible though.

Well if your files aren't at least two places at the same time you aren't really protected. Drives fail all the time. Well not all the time, but all those horror stories of lost work exist for a reason.

So do you lose all the extra storage space you get with multiple HDDs with arrays, how about partitioning does that work. adding a slice of each of your HDDs to give to for instance, the windows paging file.

Can someone explain to me what the great wonder of a raid array is. Does it take several HDDs and treat them as one, scattering file segments all over the place. I have heard some reports of a critical error meaning data loss on all of the drives in an array. Part of the reason I have more than one drive is to have some protection against mechanical failure. Is there any real gain, considering that HDDs are hopelessly slow no matter what.

I was expecting something better than oblivion as regards feel and immersion. I dunno, maybe I should give the game a chance, but clunky 3d is not my thing.

Yes, but wasn't it supposed to be impressive as far as the world and graphics and physics and such, it looks pretty bland, combat animations are boring, the stock guy you play as looks like a dork, etc.

I just bought this game, played it for all of 10 minutes, mostly walking around robbing people's chests. This game is not up to par, why was I not warned. I blame you all. I distincly remember a few positive remarks. Are you all on drugs or something. The physics and animations are mid 90s. Is there a gothic 4. Did I get the old version ..

Well the serial stardock gave me for online play doesn't work, but I don't really care, Sins is more of a strategy game than the kind of RTS you would enjoy playing online. On the other hand, the game doesn't require me to have the CD in the drive, big plus. I welcome this kind of move from an industry that is ripe with really poor conditions for buying games through downloads. Instead of just getting a contract between you and the company that says you payed for the game, they make all kinds of restrictions on how many computers you can use it on, and how many times you can install and activate it. Battling online piracy requires that it is easier, not a lot harder, to get a game the legit way.

That's a question of resources, like when doctors triage patients, not of being philosophically disinclined to do your damn job.

Nonsense, doctors are public servants, we don't allow other branches the right to pick and chose how they treat people. If you have a private clinic and suck fat out of the wealthy you can do as you like, but a public hospital...

I don't know, but I have an irrational hatred for anything that keeps my boot time a nanosecond higher.

Install without an admin password and you won't have that worry.

What does this mean, that there are doctors who won't perform abortions. I don't see this as a problem unless they would actually refuse to save a woman's life and perform an emergency abortion. That would be criminal.

I called in sick and I'm finishing up a pile of DVDs Latest one is transformers. I was surprised it was not garbage, lord knows it should be on paper and I'm completely indifferent about cool cars, but it was actually both funny and exciting. On golden compass, I liked certain elements of it but to be honest it got pretty stock fantasy once they started battling it out in the arctic.

Wanted. It's quite possibly the most retarded action film ever, but the exploding rats won me over.

'How are you' is something you ask of someone you haven't seen in a while, you can wiggle out and say 'fine' or you can actually say something about your life, but it's not just a 'hello stranger' type greeting, in Denmark that is.

What a boring story.

I only played Guildwars for any length of time. I'm sure it doesn't belong in any 'best evar' list.

I think that's what you call a contradiction in terms. Gaming laptop that is.

I just want to say that although Temple of Elemental Evil was a horrible game, the system wasn't the reason, hell it was the only thing that made me finish it.

I don't want to be force fed a plot, I want the experience to be challenging, and I want something more than hack & slash. I don't want so much sandboxing that everything turns generic and every dungeon into 2 scamps jealously guarding a pile of gravedust.
