It's not really the same thing. Religious people can't prove what they believe in, and they claim just to 'know it to be true', because 'faith is a gift'. However, scientific postulates must be proven to be accepted. Until you can prove otherwise, they are true. Granted, science may not have all the answers, and the few answers it does have are perhaps only applicable to the small parcel of reality in which we exist, but within those parameters, science is much more solid than religion. From a pragmatic standpoint, anyway. It all comes down to the old question, what can you believe in, and what is real. You can make up any number of answers for that, and nobody can really prove you wrong, since there isn't an exact definition of reality. However, I for one prefer to believe in what at least seems to be real. That doesn't mean I'm right, even though you need to be able to prove me wrong in order to present an argument. And no, I don't take any drugs.

It seems to me that they are a wee bit biased with all the 'OMG they invented teh PST!!!1' stuff. Nice read while waiting for the game, though.

Yep. What I'm not so sure of is the degree to which that underlying order can be quantified. It isn't very useful if everything can be broken down to a set of factors in an equation, if there are like, an infinite number of them that need to be calculated with um... infinite precision.

Quantum physics and Chaos Theory would disagree, methinks.

A rather unusual combination of conditions that allowed the fragile carbon based life to thrive. In particular, due to some primates' need to grow larger, more complex brains for improved 'hand-eye coordination'. Ironically enough, sentience is a side effect. Biologically speaking, to live long enough to spread your genetic material as much as you can. From a philosophical standpoint, I haven't seen anything yet to convince me that there's such a thing as a 'purpose of life'. Whatever floats your boat. That the entity that is the psyche stops working. It's the default conclusion. Believing random things isn't... logical. When I see something that proves that something different happens, I will believe that. It's easier to accept what others tell you than to think for yourself. Some deep spiritual experience that I'm not bound to have anytime soon.

Oops... :ph34r:

I wouldn't count on that.

Welcome to the realm of high-end graphics. A land forbidden to the weak of faith, to the apostates and recreants, aka Xbox owners. :ph34r:

I don't know about gaming eras but dude, your drawings are good! Are you a pro?

You mean you couldn't? I always thought that was an option judging from the dialogue options you get. But then again, you had dialogue options to have her fall to the dark side again. Suckage.

It sucked that she was totally immune to the lure of the dark side and stuff. But I suppose that isn't her fault. <_<

Yup. There was some post by Akari (or perhaps it was MCA? I don't remember) about some of the things that had been cut from the game due to time constraints. Apart from that, nothing relevant that I can think of.

Obviously you've done your homework.

No chance, I

Nice!

Only in your imagination, baby. :cool:

No.

I told you. Asexual reproduction. Which is not surprising considering the cringe-worthy love confession scenes... "

A message board where only developers/administrators can start polls.

I must object. It's clearly shown that Aleema Keto and Ulic Qel Droma made room for some nookie time in TotJ. :"> But we all know that TotJ and SW are like apples and oranges...

Well, it's not that odd, considering they don't seem to have sex either. Which must mean they reproduce through asexual means, just like amoebas. You should know better than to ask those questions. Lucas' universe takes away all the worst things of Humanity. Such as basic physiological functions, and the RIAA. "

I don't even have a top ten. Too lazy.

Bugs related to how the engine works on the PC (due to porting and different PC configs) are to be expected and acceptable to some extent. Bugs due to design flaws (looping dialogues, broken quests, etc) are not and these should have been fixed for the PC release. If the old Xbox bugs have been fixed, I'll be one happy camper (and wait for the patch).

How do you put a price on someone else creative work? Do you know how much work went into writing it, playing it, getting it published? Music is overpriced. Not because it isn't worth what you pay for it, but because publishers overprice it to increase their revenues as much as they want. If a CD costs say, $20, you can be sure that the original author doesn't get more than $6 for each sold copy. Is it fair that the person who puts in the so vaunted 'creative work' only gets 25-35% of the money it costs? And don't forget that a great deal of downloaded music wouldn't be purchased anyway. People may download an album because "it's nice", but if they couldn't d/l it, they would just not get it. So that part of the filesharing isn't damaging the music industry, because they're assuming it's affecting a market which is actually inexistent. If the music industry goes to hell, I'm not going to drop a tear. I'll be sorry for the people who work in it, but not for the musicians or publisher owners. They had it coming.
