Oy, that's who he was. Thanks. Egads, Willow.... Childhood memories.

I am the Uninstall Option.

I think it should be "just because he made some great movies doesn't mean he is, by default, a great director". A good director can have his flaws and even be a lousy director in some of his own movies. Unless all his movies have been directed flawlessly, which I don't think they were. Does it matter if one's preference puts him in a minority? Is it even worth mentioning this? It feels like people just say this expecting it to automatically prove the other side wrong, or to render their argument invalid.

Or the ultimate whiners.

Unfortunately, while that is true, if you replace 'PC' with 'Console' you'll get a valid description as well. I've seen enough fanboy rants and rabid assaults on both sides to last me a lifetime. Console fanboys seem to be more rabid, though PC gamers seem to carry that distinct 'holier than thou' halo.

RTSs And emulation,baby <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And modding. And electronic support, if required.

If only the PC version didn't had the problems that apparently exist in the console version.

Thanks for the recommendations

I believe he was thinking of something in the lines of Full Spectrum Warrior.

Life keeps amazing me. For some reason I cannot fathom, nor do I wish to, my father, out of all people in the world, decided to get himself a console. While he is aware of the next-gen wave of consoles coming out, he's interested in getting a PS2 instead, as he believes the pricedrop makes it worth buying now. It's his money, anyway. The thing is, he's only interested in racing games and military strategy games for the PS2. At least for time being. Now, given several of you have consoles and know more about their software library than I know or care about, I'd like to know if anyone has recomendations on PS2 titles that fit that genre. Thanks in advance.

Hopefully this only happens in some instances of combat, and is not gradually happening with every hit that the character takes, otherwise it's going to make combat a really frustrating exercise.

None of them.

I would rather live in the completely deleted thread system. I hear it's fun there. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've already taken residence in the Obsidian Moderation boards. Come join the fun!

Maybe I'm not understanding where you're coming from, but the only problem I see when this idea is applied on computer RPGs is that imagination is not what a computer RPG should be about. I can imagine whatever situation I want when I play a CRPG, but this is pointless, as the game can't react to it. It can only react to what it has been programmed to react. And that is something where the Sims fails, establishing a relationship of that kind. I can imagine multiple situations, moments, lines of dialogue and every detail of their lives, hundreds of entire biographies for every character imagined and gradually updated mentally as their life cycle passes by - but it simply doesn't matter. It doesn't contribute to the game, nor does it register. In the end, you're still left with the only tangible thing that existed before, gameplay. If a game is trying to have me establish imagined relationships between players and NPCs (or anything else strongly established by means of imagination), then I feel it's failing as a game, specially as an interactive game. I could just as well imagine things on my own.

2DA files aren't supposed to be saved as text files. Is it possible you have determined all 2DA files should be open with Notepad? If that is the case, then you should eliminate the extension recognition.

Hell no. Hell yes.

They aren't forcing you... You don't have to play their console games.

That's really too bad Gorth. I feel for you... Something, though I'm not sure what.

If you haven't gotten one, then the forum system screwed up. PM Feargus with the PM subject being "SLAM DUNK", and no text. You'll get your ring.

You need to equip the ring to know what they mean.

The first of the two to be redundant?

Thanks Baley

My short tenure in this game has been fun. Not exactly the cream of the crop yet, though, as can be seen in my profile. If anyone's planning on joining... Help the goblins of the world run for presidency.
