No, they're not evil. They're just doing what any sensible businessman would do. That is, earn all the money he could, and then some. That's perfectly understandable. But still, I don't think a monopoly is good for me.

You can always try and discuss something with Volourn.

No. Where have I stated that I don't like EA? I just don't like monopolies, but you'll be hard pressed to find any comments made by me bashing them directly. I don't hate them and I have had much fun playing some of their games. Try again. Insert coin.

Yes. Don't let your love for EA Sports blind you more than is usual in you. PES owns FIFA in every aspect, except for all the official garbage. And most of that can be edited so it's not important.

Huh? Why would real time SPECIAL be garbage? FOT was exactly that and it was a great tactical action game IMO. The issues I have with that game were more with the interface than the implementation of SPECIAL in an action game.

Did I miss something?

Yeah, I won't deny that. I was very impressed with HL2's engine. However, I can't really enjoy a game which doesn't compel me story-wise. If you can, good for you, that means you haven't wasted $50.

Well, I hear some MMO's are free, so you won't be wasting any money. As for time, however... "

Come now, those mom jokes are like, so last week. If you're going to have a go at me, at least be original, man. In case you're wondering, no. Weird smilies don't count as originality. And, nothing like Yoda, my mom is, no.

Green, short, and talking backwards?

Well, I haven't really watched FOX news so I don't have anything to say about them in particular. This comment drew my attention, though: Heh. I don't know about you, but I don't need analysts to analyze news for me. That's what I got my brains for, you know. If I want to know what some analyst thinks about something in particular, it's not the news I'm going to watch. When commentary and analysts are an integral part of the news... it's not news anymore.

My character is called Search. Search is your friend, you know.

You should get your eyes taken a look at.

True, when i tested my IQ, i got 132 (Am i stupid or smart? ) Only 2 points smarter than Bush? I'd be very worried if I were you, mate. :ph34r:

Nah, he just plays dumb so his enemies will underestimate him. :ph34r:

Doom 3 kind of got boring after lights dim, zombies come, zombies die then the cycle repeats itself. Ofcourse its entertaining because you can go trigger happy and shoot everybody. And HL2 is different how? Oh yeah, I forgot. Locations change and you can maul the poor things to death using the grav gun.

The closest thing you'll find to a 'guide' to the Old Republic are the TotJ comics. Supposedly KotOR was inspired somewhat by that series. AFAIK there are't any 'official' packages to help you set up a game like that. And as for fan-made packages, well, their guess is as good as yours. In PnP, creativity is your friend.

LOL. I won't pretend I know more than magistrates and economists, unlike you do. If MS is declared a monopoly in court, I'll believe it until it's proven otherwise. I agree, however, that pure monopolies may be hard to find, as it happens with all theoretical concepts. MS may not have been a pure monopoly, but it was a practical one, and that's what counts. But none of that really matters. Monopolies are good only for those running the monopoly. For the rest of us lowly mortals, they suck. Monopolies kill competence, which is the most important pillar of a free market. And that's basic economics theory. When I see a monopoly that's good for the average joe, I'll swallow my words. Until then you auto lose. Game over, and all that stuff you keep saying.

Predictable. Instead of coming up with ideas of your own, you just attack mine. But it doesn't matter since MS was legally declared a monopoly due to all that IE business. You auto lose. )

Define 'REAL' proof. You realize that due to the linear character of time it's impossible to prove something that hasn't happened yet, do you? Can you prove the sun will rise tomorrow? No, you can't. However, chances are it will. Now, based on logic and past similar experiences, you can make a prediction with a very high probabilty of it accurately descripting future events. MS is a perfect example of a monopoly. You can't deny that. Now, once a company has swept all competition, they can ask almost what they want for their product, without worrying too much about its quality, because there's nobody out there to dispute their market share. I have provided an example and a reasoning to back my claims. Now it's your turn to do the same. The ball is in your court. If you can't, you will 'auto lose'.

S P A M No, really.

Want proof of how monopolies have product quality decrease while at the same time increasing prices? Microsoft is all the proof you need. If EA is allowed to get a similar monopoly on sports games, the same thing is bound to happen. Monopolies are the dead end of rampant capitalism.

Keep going, you've already proven yourself a worthy spammer. Too bad I ran out of cookies.

One of the funniest things I've read in my time on these forums. S P A M <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pot... Meet Kettle. S P A M
