  1. Turn based combat is dead, if follows that the faster the game moves the harder it is to have any great number of tactical elements. Personally I would rather have more arcade to replace it than the button-pushing of the Kotor series. If i'm gonna shoot at something I should be able to aim, if i'm dueling with a lightsaber I want to be able to block. Fortunately Kotor had other charms than the combat to keep it alive.
  2. Too bad he lost his voice to coke and booze. Anyway wasen't he 90 or something, thats more time than most people can expect to get.
  3. Homeworld, Homeword Cataclysm, and Homeworld 2. :D Too bad Dawn of war was such a slam dunk, not because I don't like it, I do, but now Relic will be stuck doing warhammer games forever. Incidentially, can anyone suggest similar full 3d RTS games that you liked, (PC only) no MMOGs.
  4. We all wither and die sooner or later, if you want to then go ahead and check out, just be sure its not for the wrong reasons; attention, a cry for help, an angry stab at someone you are emotionally involved with etc. If you can't muster the will to do it yourself you aren't serious though. I know of someone who rented a hotel room and brougth what they use in a slaugtherhouse; an electic gun that drives a metal splint through the forhead. Just before impact though, he held back sligthly, now he has a silly looking depression in his skull. If I wanted to off myself i'd sign up for skydiving lessons and sabotage the auto release on my chute.
  5. mmm, and when you discover that they aren't religous after they start eating your face ?
  6. A houseboat stocked with canned supplies and plenty of water purification tablets and a distiller to extract fresh water from brine. For added early warning, just in case, a sonar and a top mounted radar. For defence, a Barret .50 sniper rifle and a Glock 17. For close combat, a fireman's axe.
  7. I though it was just a cinematic.
  8. You avatar looks like a squished daddly long legs.
  9. When the zombie hordes come I wanna be at Aram's house.
  10. I bow to your greater macho heroics. I too have gotten beaten up out on town, sadly there was no damsel involved. Just too much beer and a misplaced sense of invoulnerablily. My friends, observing an incounter involving a spilled drink and some unkind words, proceded to beat a hasty retreat and left me to deal with the violent repercussions of my actions.
  11. Migth makes right, fight fight fight.
  12. All you people who feign ignorance at why men go to prostitutes, come on, it's not hard; They are horney and they can't score. But of course that notion is so alien to you that you would never have though of it.
  13. Its an easy way to make money. I find myself hard pressed to condemn anyone for it. If someone I knew decided to do that for a living I would be disapointed though.
  14. Screw You Tube. So what if all the trend and marketing reserchers are up in arms about it. What the hell is it ever going to change other than how advertisers target their audience.
  15. What am I supposed to comment on. Either three positions are i'm sure correct. Making it illegal seems to have worked well in Sweeden, now they all come over here for booze and hookers instead. Copenhagen is the Sodom and Gomora of Scandinavia, which is not saying a whole lot actually.
  16. is your keyboard English, if it's not the tilde key is not where you would think it is. Or 'accent' for that matter.
  17. You don't use single cases to argue for or against the death penalty. It's about the bigger picture, and the bigger picture is that it's morally reprehensible. It's not so hard to find some Hanibal Lector that everyone thinks deserves to die, but they are not very representative of how and to whom the death penalty is actually applied.
  18. http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=585&hl= On the topic of the choice of graphics
  19. This man should be donated to much needed medical reserch into the Ebola virus, How do you 'snap' and punch a baby in the face. It doesen't matter what level of spaptitude you are on, you don't do that. The implication that the video game had anythig to do with his actions is a disgusting exploitation of a tragedy.
  20. It's a careful balance, the more you pay the less you get, and at the same time the whole setup needs to last 4 years or more to justify the expense. Unless you don't mind paying in which case you can do whatever you want.
  21. I remember watching a BBC show a year or so ago where they did an experiment to prove a point about vulnerability. They installed fresh OS, windows XP, and connected to the internet using no antivirus or network protection software. Within 30 seconds the machine had been recognised as an easy mark and been infected by a worm.
