It's still got all the same menus, they are just hidden away under a lot of over designed new menus that look kinda IOSy or like they belong on a phone where you can't have more than 4 or 5 entries in the same heading. Most of the things you remember from 7 like the device manager, services.msc and so on can still be called from the search console. Just avoid using the settings app whenever possible.

Well if the difference is the same as between Fallout 3 and 4 It's going to be thematically safe and as full of bugs as it is boring as hell.

How is James Earl Jones still alive. He was old in the first Comming to America.

How the hell could you piss away 40 million and spend so little on polish. I mean turd polishing clearly indicates the need for polish. That's what they did with DOI. I can only conclude that it must have been very down to the wire and the schedule pushed back several times. Or perhaps just the opposite, the EA treatment, just push out whatever is there when time runs out. That's a lot of toilet metaphors I know.- AMD Ryzen

Aaaand it just failed to come back from power saving mode, had to reboot. Seriously, never get one.- Politics 2017 part 4
Lol, Bilderberg, and that scumbag Bill Gates with a malaria vaccine. How dare he.- Need a new phone
Well for starters it has a search button that can only be used to launch Bing. Why would I want that. Proper browsers, Firefox, Chrome etc are not available.- Need a new phone
I have regrets. Windows mobile is ****.- I never finished Pillars of Eternity.
Gorgon replied to JFSOCC's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Do you want ants, I mean do you want the thread closed, because that's how you get threads closed. It's a lot easier than figuring out who's right or wrong and it's the go to solution when people start to get too personal.- Nerdgasm: Movies and Shows for Geeks and Nerds
The more vertices and effects the more money spent on CGI. These movies are wearing their complex skeleton rigs and 5 different reflection and refraction maps like gold chains.- What you did today

I loved it. The premise is silly, but its so gorgeous and I don't need my space opera to be award worthy. I don't know. While I agree that entertainment doesn't need to be award-worthy (far from it, actually) I'm rapidly approaching a point where gorgeous visuals can no longer polish a turd, for both movies and games. Even low budget schlock like Iron Sky looks visually impressive these days (not that I don't like low budged schlock, I loved every moment of Iron Sky). Point in case, well, Avatar. When it came out I went to an IMAX cinema and the movie gave me vertigo in certain scenes (I hate heights, really, standing on a chair is enough to make me queasy) and I thorogouly enjoyed the three hours of special effects porn. I caught a rerun on TV recently and... boy is that one dumb film that has loads of distracting obvious CGI stuff, most prominent obviously being Saldana's blue space elf brigade. On the flipside Volo's much disliked Avengers (the first one, that is) is almost as dumb in its story premise but at least it has a roster of decent actors and some really funny dialogue. Jupiter Ascending has Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum and a Sean Bean character that actually survives. That's just wrong. Umm. A space werewolf who got his wings cut of (he had wings - a space werewolf, think about that for a minute) because he ate a guy, so now he jumps around using rocket boots and apparently he can hold on to a spaceship and hitch a ride to another planet (as in on the outside of the spaceship like a train surfer or something) if the need arises. Terrible movie but not unentertaining.- Horizon: Zero Dawn Is the Best WRPG Ever. The Best.

Totally accurate- UK Terror Attack
Why are you all doing this song and dance, of course it's going to be a radical islamist. I mean 99% of that. Doesn't make you a racist you know.- UK Terror Attack
Ah. Volo was right. Linking is useless because source will always be questioned. The Mirror is a joke though.- UK Terror Attack
Could have been worse, when you remember the truck attack in France. I guess they have started putting up countermeasures in public places. They look kinda like anti tank barricades.- Politics 2017 part 4
In fact, the insurance industry is the overriding factor why the US cannot shift to efficient universal health care. They are the middle man no one wants. If you want to maximize efficiency and really run health care like the army, as in the government hires and maybe even pays for the training of doctors in return for x amount of years on comparatively crappy pay, you can't have any parasites in the process. The logistics of supplying the entire US population simply do not allow for it.- Mass Effect Andromeda
Strong shooter mechanics could make me overcome most things. A weak makeaface in the character generator and the terrible animations. Maybe not though, and there is not going to be be as much glorious ME shlock either iif it's going to be so combat intensive. I want to have my cake and eat it too. Also there's no cover button. Fluid cover... nahh I've never seen that done well, but it's good that they have at least moved out of the cover based shooter trope. - What's on the idiot box?
