The Grey - I love Liam Neeson, and the acting was decent in this film, but in the end it didn't seem to know what it wanted to be and turned out as a crappy horror flick. Kind of a shame, really. Get the Gringo - Mel Gibson in a role similar to Payback, but set in a Mexican prison. It had some real good parts, but also really lame parts. Worth a rental if you liked Payback, I suppose.

Awesome! Other than PE, this was the other big Kickstarter I was waiting on.

Yeah I plan on just keeping my subscription at this point. Even though I'm only playing a few days a month or so, I'd like to see them keep updating and adding to the game, and that seems to be the best way.

This summer I visited Tillamook, Oregon and toured their very large cheese factory. We also had some great french cheeses at the Blue Heron Cheese Company nearby.

There are clear civil rights differences between the two candidates though, one is progressive and one is conservative. I get that it comes more from them serving a certain voting base, but if I'm a woman, or I'm gay, or really if I'm any minority, I don't know how I can justify voting for Romney. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Romney show he is willing to support civil rights. It would allow me to take him seriously as a candidate.

Alien spawning? I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.

It really depends on how the coupon was written, but it sounds like it was clearly being exploited contrary to what the intent was. It is perfectly legal for a business to protect their assets from this kind of thing.

I did enjoy Silent Storm, but even that was a long time ago. For snipers, I have one with the ability to hit anything the squad can see, and one with the ability to move and still shoot. I'm leaning towards the squad sight being a better choice, she just gets some great long distance kills whereas my other one has to get too close to the action. But it's nice having one of each too.

I'm really hoping this was simply an attempt at humor that fell flat.

I was shocked earlier that my fairly heavily armored medic got one shotted critically by a muton and died outright. Luckily I had another highly ranked medic, because I am now heading off to the big final battle.

It's odd, but I enjoyed Xcom 3 a lot when it originally, but when I've tried to go back to it over the years I haven't been able to get going. It was definitely a very different experience from the original.

In a lot of ways I'd say Origin is better than Steam, it seems to run smoother at least. But you can't beat those Steam sales

That's the thing, if he's clearly a conspiracy nut, no jury is going to send him away for 20 years.

Choosing some ammo types would be cool, just research it in the foundry or something. Although I'm really not missing having to make ammo clips and grenades. That little piece of simplification is fine by me Edit: I would love TFTD DLC. Fighting through the cruise ships was always a blast.

I just can't believe how long it took for us to get a good squad level tactical combat game. It isn't magic! Seriously, it was a long barren stretch between JA2 and here.

Okay thanks, but 28% is still a huge difference for the same job. Is this something that is known about and accepted or is this behavior that is actually illegal? It isn't something that is easy to enforce legally. You aren't just dealing with one company that pays men more than women. It gets even messier when dealing with bonuses and such, so a base salary may be equal, but many executives pull in more on bonuses than anything else.

Chris Roberts is back! Wing Commander legacy continue

Yeah, I love how kickstarter manages all my pledges in one easy location. I'm uncomfortable pledging this project simply for that reason. -
Last night I had brought a berserker down to one health and was going to move my assault guy in for a stun, but the berserker did some rage move and one of my other guys fired off a reaction shot that killed him. First time I've ever screamed NOOOO! at a dead on interrupt shot.

Anyone who thinks the terrorism charges would stick to this guy hasn't watched enough Law & Order.

Which tier did you choose?
Hurlshort replied to Althernai's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
It sounds like I'm not the only one who had to have an awkward conversation with my wife about how much money they put down. I now have to match my pledge in jewelry costs -
It's still pretty solid of EA to allow people to keep the games. Obviously it would be bad PR to take them away, but they would have every justification to do so.

Americans don't watch the debates silly. We just trust or news source about how it went down, either Fox News, MSNBC, or Jon Stewart.

I feel naked without 2 assaults, I find they work best as a team anyways. I like having two snipers too, so usually I roll with one support and one heavy.

If you can make the latter more like the former, I'll be very happy

Norway appoints Muslim woman Minister of Culture
Hurlshort replied to obyknven's topic in Way Off-Topic
I don't think anyone is content with the acid and poison attacks. The reason this one attacks getting more exposure and attention is because she was a very popular figure for her willingness to speak out about education. She had received a major award from the government and there are interviews of her that are now circulating the web. Now you could take the cynical approach and go "she's getting the attention because she's a celebrity" or you can see her as a very good symbol for all the girls that have been attacked by perverse groups like the Taliban. I would hope the outpouring of attention her attack is receiving will help change Pakistani society. Well, that's hardly cynical, it is the reason - I doubt the authorities would have done squat without all this outrage and condemnation, happens everywhere and does make some sense I suppose as if you're just some plebe no one cares unless you die in droves or something. As for changing Pakistani society, heh that's one long shot. http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/16/world/asia/pakistan-activist-reaction/index.html?eref=igoogledmn_topstories It might not be as far fetched as it initially sounds.
