just a question for the 'older' ones on this board .. has there ever been a "show you picture" thread?? where people posted photos of themselves? so there would be no confusion of gender!

uuh I don't know .. play non-stop until I finish it!? and then do it all over again .. until satisfied .. I will probably look like Gollum when I'm done with it ..

^ lol .. yeah first you hear this awful noise .. then a 2 meter tall and wide red giant leaps out of the dark with a huge axe in his hands .. no wonder the English fled in terror each time they saw our ships .. muhahaha

No, but it's definitely on my top 20 list .. Mostly because I was so suprised! I had not heard anything of it when I borrowed it from a friend .. and all other SW games are relatively so-so imo .. So I was pleasantly suprised to find a rather good game once playing! my top ten is reserved for nostalgic games of old ..

Only in the "winter war"? Do you forget 1941-1944? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> there was more hack'n'slash over the winter war! kudos to Finland for that .. fighting, not only outnumbered, but also outgunned and against better equipment .. sure they got alot from Sweden (and Germany I think?) and others, but still .. maybe they just used megafones and yelled at the Russians .. I couldn't imagine anything more frightning than 10000+ ultra-loud finnish men ..

lol .. "no actually ... only 1 in 50 people qualify to be in Mensa" .. ROFL!

yeah you guys showed that in "the winter war" ..

Which is why I can understand Dutch .. yeah I made a contribution to the forum! (w00t)

^ I think we can all agree that such a law is simply stupid .. My problem with violence in VG is like 213374U also stated earlier in this thread.. that if people become addicted to the games, they will lower their 'reality barriers' because they are exposed to it again and again .. it's like how we become immune to violence on TV .. it may not result in more crimes .. but it will result in more apathy!

Sure, it looks more normal, and you don't have strange symbols .. and I can understand just fine thank you! but it's just one big mix of French, English some German and a dash of Danish! and I saw you posting, so I edited my own ..

hey it's better than that hack-fest called Suomi! sounds more like a guy choking that talking .. I mean "Ugric" that just tells you a bit about the culture there! " And Mkreku if you had asked; "why do all danes, from west jutland, talk as if they have their mouths full of porridge" we could begin to agree .. besides swedish has it's share of obscure dialects too!! and what about Dutch now that we are talking about difficult .. huh Ludozee?? hehe

^ no flaming .. but I absolutely adored that game (still play it regularly) .. Shogun was the best strategy game of it's time imo .. simple because the level of control! but I know what you mean, it had to play on easy for a long time before I could even survive for more than 20 minutes! :D and I remember Bg3 was quite a blow as well .. but Freespace .. I can still feel sad when I think back ..

hvad fanden snakker du om?? finsk er da det v

I hope that lady get's totally shunned by the entire society she lives in! I mean for ***** sake .. that just ****** me off!

^ you get a much higher score if it's spread 24 .. which most old tests use! and I've had my results go from 111 to 153 (on same spread tests).. so it really depends on alot of circumstances!

no it's still a childrens story .. but since it was written in 1837 you can imagine it's a little heavy on Christian morale! in all honesty, it's fundamentally the same story as the Disney version .. her saving the Prince, wanting to be human because she loves him, and giving her voice to get a pair of legs (although in this story each time she walks it is like stepping on a thousands razors) .. but where it differs is that the prince does not love her back, but marries a princess from another kingdom (one he believed saved him instead of the mermaid).. and this in turn kills the mermaid, because if he married another she would die .. she is then transformed into a spirit of the wind, which can earn a soul by doing good for humanity in 300 years .. so it's all about how you get to heaven, how you must put all personal desires aside to do good .. and how one should not desire for things that is far away from your heart .. at least in my interpretation! http://hca.gilead.org.il/li_merma.html - English version ..

hmm I remember playing Freespace 1 .. then 2 came out and it was the best game I ever played (back then), ended in a TOTAL cliffhanger .. but a third was never made .. that was the darkest day in gaming for me .. I still have scars on my soul .. the story was so great, but it was like Star Wars without "Return of the Jedi" to finish the saga .. even if it had been crappy it should still be there!

haha as long as the word Gothic is used you are a fan! but true however .. the digger looks very gothic indeed! so the 'feel' of the picture is right on the mark, but it's looks a little too unfinished for me ..

^ sure Metalboy .. try decaf next time! okay? .. and Percival, good point .. still my (slightly exaggerated) point was, that if they need to make 10+ patches they are doing something wrong and not fixing it properly ..

ouch ..

The strange thing is that I know more about European and American monuments (and probably history) than Danish! + anyone with a rudimentary grasp of American history knows the "founding fathers"! and Mount Rushmore is a pretty well known monument! and the statue in Copenhagen is originally enough called "The Little Mermaid" .. after the famous story of the danish author Hans Christian Andersen .. (and no it's nothing like the Disney version)

the very first and the last one are the only ones I like .. shadows and general shapes are great in the frontal face and same goes for the Wizard, + good colouring!

as I wrote: unbalanced/buggy Patches is a sign that a game is unbalanced or buggy (or missing some vital pieces), there's no disputing that .. So, if a game recieves - say 10 patches, it could be a sign that the developers aren't exaclty the best at creating the needed balance/removing bugs etc .. but all due respect for them wanting to correct it! of course .. Now I'm not saying patches are a completly bad thing! it's great that the developers are actually taking an interest in the players needs!! but I would rather just have a perfect game to begin with than patching it 40+ times, because the games was rushed/undone .. whatever ..

I didn't mean that addiction is worse than violence in general .. but worse than violence in games! a dependence, on games, implies that you don't have time to (or won't spend time on) do(ing) anything else, that you use most of your time playing, and thereby miss out on your actual life .. just playing from time to time and still being able to live a perfectly normal life hardly categorizes you as an addicted gamer! It's a serious affliction imo .. and one that should recieve the same attention as any other addiction! since any obsession leads to a greater need, which in turn leads to far worse ramifications ..
