  1. Looking at the guys (and girls (and wookies)) to the right, I would have preferred a slightly humorus " grumpy old men of the republic" movie instead of the episode I-III crap
  2. But, it had Milla Jovovich in it!
  3. Lets see... 2000$ for... how much laptop was it that money got you ? Oh, nothing ? Well, then I would say just about any other vendor might potentially give you more laptop for your money
  4. Yup, Vangelis has made the odd good soundtrack here and there. I loved both his Bladerunner and 1492 soundtracks
  5. You got a hamster named Boo ? :ph34r:
  6. Yes, damn those tight fitting cat suits. I knew there was a sinister purpose for them dressing like that...
  7. Go down to your local library and search for the topics male insecurity, violence, adrenaline and sexual stimulation. There ought to be several shelves of books...
  8. Yes, nice The gaming industri isn't just a walk on roses... "As for designing at EA, let
  9. My little brother has one. Perhaps I should get him a few games for his birthday... :D
  10. I tried RE a long time ago... sorry, but it played (and looked) pretty awful on a PC. I sort of imagine that it would have looked better on a TV and definitely played a lot better with a game pad (not the rather awkward keyboard layout that couldn't be remapped) I haven't given RE2 and RE3 a try, but I "suspect" they would have similar issues. Thats why I think a decent port would be nice
  11. List is now even shorter. Looks very bleak for the up and coming winter season... Buy a console :D Honestly, I'm not really tempted to do that. The games that I do like, seems to end up on PC anyway (and I got a high end system). Of couse, I wouldn't mind if they did a decent PC port of the Resident Evil games...
  12. Perhaps he is not very good at spelling when typing fast ?
  13. List is now even shorter. Looks very bleak for the up and coming winter season...
  14. Animal Planet ? :blink:"
  15. Never tried the GTA games, so it's not much of a comparison. Diablo however is no more a crpg than Unreal Torunament. It just has a slightly odd POV...
  16. I was interested in that game until I was shown the content of the EULA (which I'm pretty sure is not shown on the front side of the box to the poor suckers who actually bought the game) In essence, you sign off all rights to privacy and allow Valve to gather any and all information they see fit, related to their game or not and use as they please. Things like that makes me think only twice about buying software that requires on-line registration (twice = skipping it or a no-activation crack)
  17. A shame they don't make Coca Cola like they used to. I.e. Cocaine and Caffeeine mixed up in a syrup of distilled red wine... or something to that effect
  18. Coke, I like originals...
  19. A very short list VMBL (already released, just need to pick it up in the store after the weekend) KOTOR2 (should be around in February) Nothing else on my shopping list
  20. Translation: Likes the OC Translation: Predictable Translation: Cleavage Translation: Follow sign, grab object, return to cleavage... ehh I mean Aribeth Translation: I don't read many books Translation: Only VMBL had more cleavage... Anyway, voted NWN2, I'm yet to be disappointed by any Obsidian game that I've tried so far.
  21. Busy rearranging local geographics, like moving Sumatra 36 meters to the south-west ?
  22. Worse. It's counter productive. It's main purpose is to cause pain and trouble for legit buyers and reward people who go for "warez". The first thing I do when I buy a new piece of software, whether it be Windows itself or just a (relatively) cheap game is find copy protection/activation removers. Games usually runs more smoothly without it and when I buy it, I want to be able make a backup and work from that one (archiving the original media in a safe place, away from daylight and wear and tear). As for the attempts at quantification of the loss caused by filesharing etc. I "guess" that they are exaggerated to make somebody feel good about feeling sorry for themselves. Most (I'm guessing again) people who use illegal software wouldn't have purchased it in the first place but just continued without it. It's more likely a frustration thing, that developers and publishers can't do much about a bunch of pimple faced brats with attitude problems that steal their things and hides like the cowards they are, therefore using something like cd-drive killing protection schemes to give a false sense of at least doing something. If all the money that went into licensing Safedisc/Laserlock/Securom and all the other garbage went into tracking and elimintating the distribution channels, much would be accomplished. You can't stop people from trying to break a protection mechanism, it's a challenge thing, there will always be somebody who tries and succeeds. You can however go after those who try to make a (fake) name for themselves by distributing it. Assumedly, they are more in it for the "glory by association with the cool cracker thing" than the challenge thing.
  23. Yeah, and Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play is the RPG companion to Warhammer Fantasy Battle. No reason a WH40K RPG wouldn't be possible. Actually they already made one, I believe it's called Inquisitor. Exactly, hence my interest in playing an Inquisitor
