If we decide to ignore poll options completely, my Best so Far list goes something like C64, A4000, PC in about that order. I remember hating PC's when developer moved from the Amiga to the PC because of the primitive OS, inferior hardware and constant dumbing down of games Still, none of them are a match for the C64 when it comes to entertainment value.

I wish I could have polymorphed Jan Jansen into a spider... One where I could tear off his legs, one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one. That might have made him shut up about turnips Finished playing Master of Orion 2, going back to complete my game of NWN2. Getting close to the endgame, having entered the bad guys lair. Just need to kill a pair of Shadow Reavers.

To show that the xbox360 is not only superior to one other console, but many other consoles? No idea. Generally these threads (like the previous 41 incarnations or so) tends to be short lived.

Voice of Atton: I have a bad feeling about this... Let's see how it turns out. Nothing to add, since I've never had one of those (besides a PC, so I can't compare). ...and your version number is a bit off. I think this is more like V1.42 or so

Nice ones I moved it to the general Star Wars section. If you check the date of the original post, it predates the time where the Star Wars (and Kotor2) sections existed.

MCA is the lead designer on OEI's unannounced Unreal 3 project
Gorth replied to funcroc's topic in Computer and Console
Nobody has yet been able to verify the alledged anti-static properties of saliva, so licking monitors is usually only good for trapping flies and other bugs on your screen, not as a dust repellant And a welcome and a Hi to Annie C. VanderMeer too So, you guys got anything juicy to tell about the upcoming games? -

Maybe I should take a screenshot of his greeting and glue the printout to my VMBL box? Edit: Forgot to be polite Hi -
FIFE - a next generation Fallout-like engine
Gorth replied to mvBarracuda's topic in Computer and Console
Man, I so hope somebody picks up this engine some day for the purpose of a Syndicate Wars remake :sad: It's looking better and better btw. -
Is that the one where you are doomed if you select an option that goes something along the lines of dropping your weapons immediately? It is in the very first Q&A in the sticky thread in this forum section Edit: Oops, just noticed Steve's comment about the fix section being gone from Team Gizka. Well, time to prepare for some Kotor2 with the big mod hopefully

a rover with built in laser blaster coming next year
Gorth replied to Eddo36's topic in Way Off-Topic
It's a choice of strategy The long term future of humanity isn't/shouldn't be limited to Earth. Too many eggs in one basket so to speak (which Is why I prefer the above option that features some redundancy) -
I have gotten into a bad habit the last couple weeks, of being too tired in the evenings, falling asleep before I make it all the way into my bed Spending a lot of grey cells at work these days, working out some new designs for a variation to project in progress. It gives me (even) more grey hairs

Sorry, couldn't resist I wonder why they think "Bigger is better" when it comes to vehicles? If I were NASA, I would rain a dozen or two of smaller vehicles onto the planets surface for wider coverage. Also, I would be surprised if they manage to keep the cost of the project at or below the budget (1.8$ Billion). That sounds like a bargain in the context of space travel and exploration. There must be a catch somewhere. -
That's a staggering number of people *starts counting fingers* I interact with 15 people on a regular basis if I stretch it a bit :sad: (Aieee! the forum is mutating while I am previewing this)

Look at the bright side, the less he tells you, the less promises he is going to break, should he win A more serious question about his lack of experience, how much of the decision making is done by the president (current, past and future) and how much is the country run by the group of people backing him/her?

Another interesting 'what if' scenario comes forth if the Germans had won and left the North Sea and Channel dominated by the Kriegsmarine (since airforces was of no consequences for navies yet) Sadly, it became a war of attrition to see who could kill off the other sides generation of young men first. The US impact was mostly the moral boost, which convinced friend and foe that only one outcome was possible now. Having bled France, Belgium, UK, Austria-Hungary & Germany dry, a new player with an untapped source of not yet dead young men was a major shift in the balance of resources.

So, what did you guys do to take out the opposing teams players before the matches? In war and football... nevermind, congratulations

Closed on request. Let's see if a fresh start, if Walkerguy is interested in creating a new thread, will have a more constructive and civil life cycle.

I don't think he 'go around' the filters, but I would probably suggest a little less profanity anyway. Oh, and try and keep the personal bits out of it (goes for everybody). It *is* possible, I've done it myself before.

My favourite german song (as in sung in german), would be Der Steuersong. Still gives me a good chuckle when I think of it Last listened to: Mike Oldfield - Shadow on the Wall

Perhaps it was the cancelled KOTOR 3? Nah, I think the cancelled KOTOR 3 was started (and ended) as an in-house LA production. -
I am trying very hard to remember *ever* having seen blood in either Kotor... There is action and violence allright, but blood? I think this game would even be allowed "as is" in Germany, and they have some funny rules regarding blood in video games (Carmageddon anyone?).

As a rule of thumb, my concern priorities goes something like: ME > Few > Many However, there could be all kinds of imaginable exceptions, are there people you care about or feel able to associate yourself with in the other two groups? Would we negotiate with a hostage taker to save the hostages? It might save a few hostages, but it would make hostage taking a viable profession and endanger many more people. Just a hypothetical example. I wouldn't be able to make a blanket statement and stand by it, it would depend on the context.

We never found out what Project New Jersey was about :sad: -
I think once we get outside our "comfort zone", which often is a cultural thing, we start squirming and feel reluctant to even talk about it. Heck, I remember once seeing something from South America (I think) where natives of the Amazon were eating some awfully big, living and wriggling grubs. I felt rather uncomfortable. The same thing applies at the thought of eating something with human, bodily fluids in it
