Heh, a schizophrenic dog

At $39.99 dollar a piece at Amazon, that would be approx. 698,174,543 Oblivion games (rounding down)

Translation: We made some poor business decisions and are now the laughing stock in the mobile phone industry. Perhaps it's just payback time for ze germans. Didn't they lose astronomical amounts of Euros when BMW tried their hand at taking over english car manufacturers ?

Perhaps Bioware and Atari are no longer best friends ? :lol:"

Reminds me of an incident in highschool way back... our biology teacher had brought some kidney with her into the class and cooked it in some kind of gravy over a bunsen burner and served it for us. Since there were some similarities between her and Ilse, the Shewolf from the SS, nobody dared to object. I've never eaten kidney since that day

Should BG1 and ToTSC become available on a single DVD, then I would definitely buy it. The one game I'm missing in my Infinity Engine collection

Blame it on my european heritage, I'm only superficially familiar with north american sports :">

A group of individuals who share enough hereditary traits to be classified as a group of their own. Two. Man and Woman Indianapolis 500, Silverstone, Le Mans...

Ok, so Kotor is space fantasy, but to call it a D&D title... Infogrames is just following the old tradition of the french buying american publisher names and running those companies into the ground while working on D&D titles "Atari" must have been hurting for a long while, having had a few suspicions since they shelved BG3 after having ripped the license from Interplays cold dead hands.

Even adding that little information, that there is nothing revolutionary or things worth keeping secret is worth keeping secret, as it gives the competition a target they need to beat. I.e. what is the minimum they need to invest of time and money to make their competitive product better, in this case, just a little. No need to pull all the plugs on their wallets then, which can be spend on something else that increases their profit for maximum ROI.

It may not be much of a comfort, but from someone who has had plenty of birthdays, they are much overrated. Still, Happy birthday young one

Amongst all the unrealistic ones, I gave myself two "achievable" goals as a teenager. One of those was to own a Ferrari. Condition of said car is less important.

Perhaps sharks instinctively worry about cholesterol numbers ?

No best turnbased strategy category :'( Railroads! was the only game I recognised on any of those lists Ah well, still got HoMM V and Tombraider Legends on my shopping list. Perhaps I should try Google on some of those best PC game titles

Thanks guys My best birthday present today ? My work permit (w00t) Watch out all Aussies, here I come :D

While it's not exactly state of the art, my old SB Audigy2 with a 5.1 speaker set is sort of nice. But then, I also occasionally use my computer for watching DVD movies, TV, playing CD's besides playing the odd game with good sound/music, so I couldn't really imagine having a computer without at least "good" audio capabilities

...it wasn't even fully paid off yet!...

I wouldn't trust a civilisation that didn't have the number zero (thats like 50% of all binary figures missing)

The Orcs won. Watch this space next year for Eurivision - The Two Towers.

Wasn't Dune II the game that made the "RTS" way of playing popular ?

What did you expect ? It doesn't freeze over that often

So what, ever heard of "The Dead Sea" ? My dad killed it! Now, if they could just combine horse riding with flying, then I could have a pegasus. Flying horses FTW

(w00t) Congratulations Finland

Not to mention a plethora of dedicated dragon slaying weapons in circulation makes for an endangered species. For comparison, try listing the top 5 longswords of centaur slaying ?
