  1. "Interesting"? "Shocking" is more appropriate here!
  2. It is apparent now: mod bias.
  3. Stolen from DeviantArt.
  4. Use uTorrent. It doesn't even have an installer, just one executable.
  5. Random fact: BitLord contains adware.
  6. Someone is missing a funny bone.
  7. ... Haw haw haw. Yeah, that's nothing compared to Tinfoil Hat.
  8. Well, BSOD is a driver problem. Tried downgrading or getting different drivers?
  9. Why not? If it was cheap to produce, it will require much less sales to recoup the costs. And a smaller sum of money is at risk.
  10. Owing money: you get money now (when you need it), not in some distant future, when the business opportunity has slipped away. Being owed money: interest rate, essentially, you are investing your money and get a return on it. Any more questions?
  11. There is a fine line between bias and preference. And preference does not always has to have a reason.
  12. Weird? Absolutely not. Western news sites are supposed to be the first ones to be blocked, as they usually present an alternative viewpoint to Chinese media. On the other hand, torrents do not pose any political threat, it is mostly entertainment. Also, remember the attitude to intellectual property in China, so who would care about it?
  13. I promised myself to go to sleep on time and went to bed at 4:30am. I hate myself.
  14. I didn't mean physical violence. What I meant is that if the game is over too soon, the whole "Battle Royale" concept turns into a fairly standard plot: a confrontation between two parties. How is that different to every other CRPG out there?
  15. But that degenerates to a very basic idea of killing bad guys, which is featured in every single CRPG in the universe. No emotional tension, no intrigue. *yawn*
  16. Believe it or not, I really wanted to like it. Really. But I just can't. Meh, 24 hours is too little time for any meaningful character interaction.
  17. Looks like Avellone's doodles. Coincidence?
  18. In the movie, all participants had the collars with mini-explosives (that's how game masters ensured noone escapes the island and that only one survivor lives). It is a brilliant idea, but sadly, the movie was bad beyond comprehension, because Japanese school kids make crap actors and the whole movie felt like anime, but with real people.
  19. With all that ambient life, it is bound to eat up all your RAM.
  20. Actually in the novel that STALKER was vaguely based on ("Roadside Picnic"), The Zone is speculated to be of extra-terrestrial origin (and has nothing to do with Chernobyl). And yes, nobody understood the artifacts, stalkers just hunted them for cash.
  21. Her hair is not affected by the wind. And strangely, she is not wearing snowboarding goggles.
  22. No, absolutely not. I'm not disappointed. I liked NWN2 and it was pretty much what I expected. Keep in mind that I have only played NWN2 and not KOTOR2, as I hate Star Wars.
  23. Only in Russia. Oh bummer, that's the one I'm getting... Anyway, it is already reportedly cracked.
