Not exactly a movie, but I bought Rome season one. I saw the pilot episode quite a while ago and wanted to see more of the series. I just need to find the time to watch it

Interesting topic... I don't have any "family of my own", as in no wife and no kids (to the best of my knowledge). My parents are a fun couple. My dad spend some years in jail when I was kid, for printing his own american 20 dollar bills. My mom was the one who turned him in, yet today, 30 years later they are still happily married. It has to be love. I never had much to do with uncles, aunts, cousins and so, which means my parents and my brothers are the family I know and care about. My parents tried their hands at being guardians/foster parents for three distant relatives during my teenage years, but it didn't turn out well. Being already damaged goods (growing up in a place, that when later investigated by police, turned out to be no better than a concentration camp for children), they ended up hardened criminals (robbing convenience stores, money transports etc.) and in one case, a heroin addict, introducing me to the less positive sides of society. They sure were handy to have around, beating people up who bothered me though If anything, I learned the possible consequences of not having a loving family when growing up, which makes me somewhat more "forgiving" towards people with tough upbringings and more condemning towards people who doesn't appreciate how privileged they may be. Having absolutely atrocious social skills, I never really got into this feeling comfortable around people thing, so I often feel more relaxed and generally happier when finding secluded places with no people around. As much as I love my brothers and their families, no way could I imagine myself having what it takes to raise a family (some would say, I am a coward).

I don't think it's a problem for people to accept, that the price is lowered somewhat in low income countries. It doesn't explain though, why the price sometimes appears artificially high in some areas (e.g. Pidescos Portugal), especially if you desire an original language (often English) version.

Took me 624 attempts to figure out what the box was for I first thought it was some kind of Hellraiser reference.

Yeah, a very bad thing with the price policy. Is localisation really such a large expense that it justifies such a price increase, or is it because somebody controls the gaming market? I have had similar issues with some gfx applications (being a hobby of mine), which costs the same in Euro and US Dollars. Is the significantly higher European price caused by localisation cost, especially in english speaking countries? Even more suspicous that these programs were developed in Europe and exported to the US (at a lower sales price than what europeans could buy them for). On a related note, I never understood how the movie industry could get away with region encoding from a legislation point of view. It is nothing but market control and price fixing I can't be the only one who noticed that some movies and video games have the text "not to be sold outside xyz country" on them. So much for free market economy... Somebody start pestering local law makers please?

And if you get it, the Malleate Spirit feat can supposedly work wonders. Well, sort of. It is to Mold Spirit what Great Cleave is to Cleave. I don't know if you can create +10 stuff with it, but you can always try.

Heh, I completed the game without using the crafting system much... maybe because I was a "Good" guy, not eating my fellow (tree)man, or other natural and/or supernatural beings for that matter. Next time, I think it is going to be Dinner Time!

Lets get one thing straight: This thread is living on the edge as it is. A couple of posters are behaving in ways that is generally not tolerated on a game developers forums (you know who you are). Any further attempts to encourage piracy, brag about piracy committed or similar will have unfortunate consequences. It should be possible to do price comparisons and suggest countermeasures to price gouging without joining (dis)organised crime Edit: Thread pruned, edited, cleaned up, made... well. Lets see if it was worth the effort.

*Bangs head against wall* Of course, if it moves, shoot it. When it lies still, shoot it again just to make sure. It has been too long since I played FPS type games (Painkiller being the last I think) Thanks Pop, I'll give that a try tonight >_

What did you think that web crawler pretending to be google.com was doing here? Umm... not listening to anything at the moment. Will probably go and find some Sisters of Mercy.

Ok, somebody is holding the door for and I can't get it up I made it to the lower levels of X18 and got the documents. When trying to get back up, not only is the door being held closed by a nasty burning "field", the otherwise docile anomalies suddenly shows a very ananomolious homing behaviour and started pursuing me. I run around for a while trying to figure out what to do and one lapse of concentration, "Whoosh!", Gorth Brulee... :sad: Any tips to get the door up (I tried a generous serving of handgrenades but that didn't help either)?

Had some colleagues visiting last night from West Australia, New South Wales and Queensland. We went out and had some nice dinner at an Indian place (I am a sucker for a good Vindaloo) Then we had some beer... And some beer... And some beer... Etc.

You can Unfortunately, it doesn't work when fighting Atris' handmaides... I am sure I made it work there once, but I can't do it anymore, not sure why.

Good idea. Works in the Mandalorian duelling ring too

Favourite place: Nar Shadaa (Dxun a close second) Favority character: Hanharr (T3 a close second)

Happy birthday indeed! Could have fooled me for a moment there

Call me old fashioned, but I stand by my opinion that it is wrong for an adult male to pretend to be a 13 year old male and date a 13 old girl on the net, whatever the excuse

Sounds a bit... boring. Did they mention mudcrabs? Putting MotB on hold for a short while (thinking about what character to play next) and picking up on my game of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. again

Always wondered where your allegiances were... the Emperor has a special place set aside for you

Awesome trip by the sound of it Rosbjerg Took me a moment to realise that there was a '/' in the marriage sign

Maybe it just checked your location? England is wet and rainy most of the time and with raising average temperatures, it is going to be the new paradise for malaria mosquitoes. Never leave home without your malaria diagnostic machine!
