You'll have to define what you mean by "chip-sets" and "processors" for me.

Yeah, it's not really the next-generation, it's just an increment on their current architecture. But don't let me get in the way of the under-dogs marketing.

I'd imagine recording actually really helps with the editing process. I know I can read something many times over many different days, and my brain auto-corrects all my errors. Reading something out finally makes me see the errors.

Wasn't that the first game to use midi composed music?

Monkey Island just barely didn't make mine. I should think about doing an honorable mentions list.

Just realized I left off Crysis. That game still blows me away. Warhead too.

edit: Had a bad upload, this one is better.

I had no idea this song existed. In case anyone was wondering who is in my avatar, it's Amon Tobin. So this is quite the treat for me.

Been a while since I've had a sip, but a gathering of friends always suites a few cups.

It's always "tax the middle class" isn't it?

The lack of Deus Ex in this thread is a tad shameful, no doubt.

I should say, that life increases the rate of entropy by life's actions and present. While life itself decreases entropy, it rapidly increases the entropy of it's surrounding environment.

Although I've heard it argued that life itself actually increases entropy.

MICROCHIP MICROCHIP MICROCHIP BRING ON THE MARK 666 666 666

Might as well dispense with a lot of our systems, seeing as they are easily broken on the time scale of political office. I don't see what giving non-citizen immigrants voting rights would accomplish as a safeguard against the fundamental ebb and flow of politics. They won't offer any greater solid ground under America than what can already be given or taken out from under American citizens.

Doesn't this more have to do with one's citizenry? If your an ex-pat your not getting all the benefits of your new home country, so you rely on your connections to your home country. Long term immigrants should be applying for citizenship, and then you have everything squared away. We just need to better facilitate that process, but I think we still need citizenry as the baseline. Problem with that is that getting a citizenship can be quite expensive; and even if it isn’t, future government could make it expensive, or perhaps only give it to those born in the country. Future governments always either giveth or taketh away, I don't think that is an argument to dispense with the pursuit of a properly laid out system.

Isn't that kind of the trend these days though? Hearing of a project years before it's revealed, then even waiting still after the reveal for a release.

Maybe the government just needs to start putting microchips in everyone when they turn 18.

People who live in the city also live in close proximity to polling locations, have public transportation at their disposal. It seems to me what rural people have to put up with is also voter suppression of it's own kind. I've usually been one to lend an ear to voter suppression issues in the past, but looking back on where this information is sourced I sometimes can't help but feel it's somewhat overblown, and used to blame the other party for a loss instead of rightfully dogging on your own lazy base who you'd be afraid to lose. Clearly the issues manifest in certain districts at certain times, but I don't think there really is a catch all sentiment that really captures the whole voter situation as it is.

I found DA insufficient and even though I played with it quite a bit it never was close to performing the way I wished. I don’t min/max in character creation but I min/max in battle. If I set “during health potion when below 25%” it will work half of a time as I wish, but when I am fighting last two enemies and I know I will survive and I will see my tank take a potion it will annoy me. If I set him to interrupt enemies with knock back and eventually I need him to interrupt someone and I see he depleted his pool, it will bother me (even if controlling him I would find myself in the same situation - but then I would know when and why I used those skills). I am not saying that it’s a bad system or it shouldn’t be used, but I personally, expect it to be more frustrating than useful, though I am looking forward to experimenting with it. I can related to not min-maxing at cc, but instead in battle.

If you're the bad guy, and the people you work for don't even provide life insurance. Then I don't think I have much sympathy.
