Mercury Rising. Yet another action film with Bruce Willis playing himself (as we are familiar with since Moonlighting), at least with some added zest, like a pre-emptive supporting character sketch of a child with a fantastic ability that we will see again soon in M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense (with a congratulatory wink to Rainman and the ambient newfound understanding of the differently-abled (or at least autism)). Alec Baldwin does a pretty good job in support, without going over-the-top too often.

What? Personal opinion in a gaming forum? Thanks for the spoiler!

Right, so it isn't possible to manually override a weaker general's strategy with your own, to help achieve a better result. That is good; one of the "advances" I didn't hold to in the Civ franchise, specifically from Two to Three and Four, was the protracted battle setting and concomitant unit health status (which mercifully could be toggled off).

Cool.

There is a location in the NwN2 campaign that you can use to investigate this ( ).

I wonder if it will be multi-threaded ...

It is a cursed, black day when folks are free to use such puns freely.

Are the battles auto-fought? Can you zoom in and micro-manage the battles, like in Rome: Total War?

Ahhhh, the old drunken monkey-see-monkey-do-with-a-boob-twist trick! /Maxwell Smart

I think it's quite difficult to generalise; after all, it's art: a tattoo may look beautiful on one person in a particular place, and completely wrong on another (all things being equal).

They don't have DVR's outside the States? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Apart from (media) PCs, there is only the Fox Sky+ box.

Spam is not tolerated.

Why do old topics scare you? If it's relevant, then I would rather people resurrect the old topic (as long as it is not too large). The Bioware fora lock topics after a few days, and consequently it is a nightmare to search there.

Depends, really: just because a word processor can be used by everyone doesn't mean everyone can write a bestseller.

Stick it in your eye for ultimate dramatic effect.

It helps them find extra bugs before the public release.

Ah. So it was an implicit warning about the evils of the loose morals of the government of the Netherlands. I see. Good point.

I was making the point that the parenthetical statement was totally non-sequitur. What does euthanasia have to do with body modification?

I assume this has been passed on to the relevant lead developers for the expansions.

Hee hee, I think it's more a case of the actors trying to duplicate the Newfie accent. )

Yeah, Girls > Computers.

I couldn't tell if they were trying to speak with an Irish accent half the time.

Caption contest? "Oh!" said God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly disappeared in a puff of logic.
