Did he bribe you guys with Steam games or something? Good luck Tale!

Pilots don't exactly have a say in what they bomb. If you want to hold someone accountable, it is the person who orders the bombing. And I haven't heard of many stories about snipers picking off children, so I'm not sure why they get the death sentence. They are typically given a specific target or group to focus on.

If we are talking Russian writers, everyone should read Master and Margarita by Bulgakov.

Obsidian should make an Alien RPG, that would be awesome!

Bummer about the bike TN, hopefully they can find it.

I guess it is cool that Freedom Fighter has pride in his country, but he seems really hung up on this whole competition thing.

Not anytime soon, I'd imagine. The economy will need to recover first.

Well, Minnesota did the same thing, and they seem to be doing well enough with their franchise.

I love the Harry Potter is grim dark stuff, that was great. It really does get progressively darker. From the end of book 4 on it is really not suited for children.

That really doesn't look that bad mrkreku. You should be fine to run on it.

I'm quite surprised that there hasn't been more of a push to get a FPS with a subscription model. There was that game Planetside back in the day, but the shooter market has skyrocketed since then, and I think blending Call of Duty with an MMO is a pretty decent recipe for success. I'm guessing it's just a matter of implementation, so this is probably a little testing the waters before a full blown MMO shooter.

I thought Far Cry 2 was beautiful, but an entire country of people trying to kill me that also respawn way too quick was not a fun environment. I spent some time hoping for a mod that would get rid of the spawn rate, but it never materialized.

That actually concerns me a bit. Risen was fairly small, but it also meant a tighter and more focused game than Gothic 3. I hope they don't lose that when they expand it.

I got an odd virus today, it pretended to be my Vista Security settings and then whenever I tried to enable the firewall it tried to charge me. I have anti-virus software (AVG) installed, so I was a bit taken aback that I picked it up. I did a system restore and got everything cleaned up, but I'm not sure where I even got it, so that is concerning.

Just in case anyone want the results: Mkreku - I couldn't find your guesses for the last round. Me - 9/14 Kor - 8/14 Volo - 8/14 Krook - 5/10 So we all got one right and one wrong in the last round.

I'm pretty excited that we have two teams in the finals that don't get there very often. Boston has had a very long dry spell, and Vancouver has never won the cup. My pick is Vancouver in 6.

I've been looking at that. It sounds a little like Laser Squad Nemesis, which was a play by email game the Gallop brothers developed.

Blood Money was one of the best games I have played, so I'm sad to hear they are moving away from that at all.

Maybe it's a sign you should buy her inline skates? Not a bad idea! I am rooting for a Boston/Vancouver matchup, but I can't decide who I want to win. I'll probably root for Vancouver, since I have been to that city.

I guess he was skating without an ACL in his knee, which sounds pretty much impossible. My wife can barely walk after tearing hers.

Huh, well that might get me to play it again. It was a pretty solid game.

San Jose didn't look very good for most of the series, but I thought game 5 was their best game. Just the way hockey goes, I suppose. Vancouver was the better team.

It does seem like American Idol is on a downward trend, so it will be interesting to see what happens in the coming seasons. I'm also curious to see how the X-Factor does.

Weird. Are you on the NA servers? That might cause an issue too. I have only had a few crashes in Rift, they seem pretty rare, especially for an MMO.

Ok.
