Aram, is that treatment for Leukaemia?

The US hasn't signed up to the relevant treaty, so much so that its troops are subject to War Crimes trials, by definition.

You're going to ignore Doctor Who: The MMORPG?

Religion is not merely the opiate of the masses, it's the cyanide. Tom Robbins I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world. The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference. Richard Dawkins Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf. George Orwell Death is not the greatest of evils; it is worse to want to die, and not be able to. Sophocles Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.

Jink might be able to eat that 180g block of Camembert with Truffle Butter like the one I ate yesterday.

They could potentially make it into a Freelancer-type MMORPG, with some creative licence.

These guys are known by Valve (Valve had them change the name from "Black Mesa:Source"), from the Planet Half-life interview: And some more info: Building on the strengths of Source (don't forget, multi-threaded, soon): And, the best bit I've read: (w00t)

Maybe they're planning for a TMORPG (Tiny Multiplayer Online RPG)? "

Well, I guess if you didn't like the first one enough to think it's worth replaying, then the updated graphics aren't going to entice you, now, are they?

Sounds interesting, except for the next sentence which reads "If it goes forward, the two hour telefilm will shoot in March during the series hiatus and prior to the commencement of production on the series fourth season in June." Well that's not exactly true to the title, "Galactica Direct-To-Video Movie Set To Launch." It looks like nothing more than a fluffy title meant to prop up a speculative piece with nothing to back it up. It also ignores the fact that there's no guarantee that BSG will even get a fourth season. We've heard rumors like this about the Stargate franchise for years and nothing has ever come of it. Take it with a grain of salt, because that's all this rumor is worth. Speaking of BSG rumors, this comes from 1up.com on a possible Battlestar MMORPG, because you know, the world needs another MMORPG. Vivendi owns NBC and the SciFi channel, which gives them rights to Battlestar. What do you think, more fluff? Did someone say BSGMMORPG? Bitchwhat clickie geekmonthly clickie 1up.com clickie

Just do some exceptional tactical shooting ... like shooting the proprietor's belt off.

I love the detail on this model: look at the id badge. :D

My teeth are apparently surprisingly susceptible to cavities. I have at least a dozen that have needed fixing. One of my my molars (3rd from the back, 2nd not counting the wisdom tooth) is about 1/3rd filling. I haven't had any cavities in a few years now fortunately enough, although apparently it's only because everything that was eating away at my teeth seems to have moved on to eating away at my gums. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've sat through someone else getting a root canal (many times, actually: I could almost do one myself, certainly assist with it: (British teeth). Nasty stuff. My mother took flouride tablets when she was pregnant with my elder brother and me, which is probably why we have much, much better teeth than my eldest siblings.

Yeah, it's the original game with all the assets re-rendered from scratch for the Source engine.

Yeah, it's got to be natural score without bonuses / penalties.

I can only find it for US$20 on Amazon (so far).

So Imperium Galactica 2 is a good game, worth playing for a n00b?

So the refueling (repair you've mentioned), and re-arming of the ships is realistic, then? Have to pick up more boom-balls before shooting off the cannons?

I have no fillings. At all. (I had one, on a baby tooth, for a couple of months before the tooth fell out, naturally.) I have had my wisdom teeth out. As the jaw hardens with age, and specifically after the twenties, I had them out before they were a problem (it was evident on the X-ray that the top two were going to be impacted), and I had them all out (even though the bottom two had a good prognosis; no need to have extra teeth, especially as I have all my originals intact!). I had them out as an in-patient, because I'd heard far too many horror stories about people having their mouth split open as the dentist tried to gain purchase. (My brother woke up with a sore chest: the dentist had put his knee into his chest to help extract the teeth.) The operation was in the morning, I had loads of Pethidine and a jump-start of Nitrous-Oxide for the procedure, then I had loads of other opiates (that were difficult to come off over the next few days), I was discharged in the afternoon and then went out. :D

Ah, that would be the French lingerie add-on, then, with "Rave like Stella when she got her groove back" complement.

Need? I would say that a game WITH emotional experience

I think we shall close this topic before embarassment for pimpees and mental scarring for the witnesses ensues ...

And that isn't a spoiler, because ...?
