Guild Wars is much more akin to a Diablo 3 than an MMO, by the way. GW2 though, seems to be going with the persistent world model of an MMO.

It seems like if they had made the beautiful open world more than just a backdrop, it would have been a better game. I noticed that playing the demo. At first I was in awe, and then I started to notice that my exploration was rather fruitless. I can definitely see the AP comparison. Both have great stories and are going to get a nice cult following, but they have trouble matching up to other games in their genre. Mafia is marketed as an open-world game but doesn't do what GTA and others have done, and AP isn't as sharp as other stealth shooters.

Opinions are fun!

The Duggars' are amazingly self sufficient. Kate Gosselin and the Octomom seem like better targets for our ire.

I prefer BG1 to BG2.

I used to work the night shift at an Egyptian museum. I would carry my maglight on my shoulder so I could swing it easily in case I was attacked by thieves or mummies.

Mission accomplished!

It's a bit of a gray area, you have the Arabian Peninsula, Asia Minor, India, and just a lot of other subcontinents or regions in the area. Heck, Europe isn't technically a continent either.

Seconded, I hear they are working on Risen 2. I'm not sure if these financial problems will affect that.

I'm really into Risen, it is shaping up to be one of the best games I have played in a long while. The voice acting may be the biggest surprise, wasn't it developed in Eastern Europe? Those are usually terrible with the voice work. I'm working my way through the Monastery right now, it is quite fun.

Again, this was one guy at THQ telling off people who whine about missing out on online content when they buy second hand. People seem to continue to blow this out of proportion.

That sounds like me. Did I recite verses from MC Hammer while I worked? "We've got to pray to Tempus just to make it today!"

I have no desire to pander to your whimsy, but if you don't include me in the party I will swim across the Atlantic Ocean and glare disapprovingly at you for an entire week. Hurlshot should be a Cleric of Tempus with a big red axe, by the way.

Picked up Risen today. It is actually really great so far, beautiful game, easy to play, fun to explore. It also runs perfect on my machine, but I did install a gigantic patch.

I'm kinda disappointed in GTA: TLC on the PC. It just doesn't run right. It isn't my PC, I can run it fine with high settings, but there are just a lot of little graphical glitches that didn't happen on the 360.

What about property taxes?

Personally I've never been a fan of the government in the marriage business period. They should stick to civil unions. Legally I believe a civil union should be limited to two people, as the risk of fraud and other problems is much greater when you get multiple parties involved. The taxes alone would be a nightmare. Churches can handle the polygamy question, and every major church has strongly opposed them for a long while now.

One solution might be that publishers work a deal with Gamestop basically saying it will not sell used games during the first week of release. That would eliminate the pretty shady practice of selling one game multiple times in quick succession.

Bring another girl home, that's super clever.

I listed a couple societal reasons why polygamy is outdated, and you brought up the Constitution. Color me confused.

I bought GTA:TfLC which has two games, The Lost and the Damned and Ballad of Gay Tony. I really wanted the original GTA4, but Best Buy didn't have any copies. I bought it for the PC. It runs decently, but I am getting some odd graphical glitches. I applied the most recent patch, but I can see why the console version is considered better. I played the original GTA4 on my 360 back in the day.

I never understood why you would buy a used game for $50 when a new one is $60. It seems like a terrible deal to me. I'd rather get a nice clean new game for a tad more. Now if I could get it for $35 instead of $60, that might be a bit more tempting.

What are you talking about?

I would call it a completely outdated practice. All the potential positive aspects are no longer relevant. Examples of outdated positives: - One man can impregnate multiple woman, which is good because the population is low and there is a high infant mortality rate. - Wealthy men are the only ones who can handle feeding a family, and if they can afford to feed more mouths, then they should for the betterment of the community.

Historians make a serious and systematic study of the past and attempt to use the knowledge they gain to help explain human nature and contemporary affairs. Philosophers offer views and theories on profound questions. There is a large difference between the two. For one thing, as a philosopher it is acceptable that you have already formed your theory before weighing evidence. It is also acceptable that you are answering a question as vague as "What is the root of equality?"
