  1. It sounds brilliant, and I can't see why anyone would complain about the graphics! This is likely to be a standard for many years ... perhaps it will even be possible to upgrade the graphics engine at a later date and still use the same scripts, too ...
  2. Do you have a protractor?
  3. It's a Zom-Rom-Com. :D It's bloody Mamet, you come to expect greatness, and that's what you often get. A company of fakes, talking, and sometimes living, bollocks, get an ultimatum from a downtown company man, they gotta make mo' money, finalize contracts and fast. Some of the greatest actors of their generations delivering some of the most delicious, silvery lies. Very entertaining, machismo-filled flick. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Simply spectacular film. If you've ever worked in sales, this will strike a chord.
  4. Thanks for duplicating.
  5. I guess as long as the blood was solid (powder form) it would be consistent ... magic blood? Like the San Gennaro (Blood Miracle) of St. Januarius in Naples?
  6. I figured everyone does. meta = wacko <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That would require reading the documentation. (I'm sure any subsequent plays will be with a custom character, but I have no idea what characterists to meta-game ...) Boy, there are a lot of controls in this thing. I really like the setting and intro video. And what's wrong with Natalia: she's great! You're all anti-soviet racists.
  7. In other words, this will allow people to make low-res graphics platform games that no-one has wanted to play for decades. Now we see the real business model revealed: bolt-on developer modules (for extra cost) for a longer M$ revenue cycle. WTF does that mean? Mods are sent to M$ Big Brother for certification? So there is no free dissemination of the mods? Talk about opening a can of worms, making M$ accountable for all the content on their network ...
  8. Now all you need is a silent fan and you'll have a half-decent GPU ... "
  9. The more things change, the more they stay the same, then.
  10. United are still going strong, we're the most successful club in the history of the premier league, it will take a lot more than 660million debt thanks to some American muppet to kill us. Walsingham you don't need to hide from your mate either, if he's like any other Villa fan he's going to be in a great mood for the next few days. This is exactly what they've been praying for for the last couple of seasons now. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> LOLLERSCATES "we"
  11. You aren't helping with his rehabilitation.
  12. I wish there was a Japan like that.
  13. Just sounds like honest capitalism, to me. We need to attack the problem at the root cause: kill all Nigerians. No, hang on ... kill all the poor? No, that's not right, either ... make the poor rich! That's it!
  14. I replayed that after about a two year gap. I'd forgotten how short it was (relatively speaking) in comparison to how I remembered it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> First time. Verily so. I am playing Natalia, of course. :D
  15. Coke has ALWAYS been cooler than Pepsi. Well, apart from when they tried to foist that new crap on everyone, then relaunched the original and removed the horrid new one. But us people outside the US didn't suffer none.
  16. I like to fold mine up in the EXACT folds that it came in ... in a dust-proof enclosure ... no-one is allowed to damage it with the photons bouncing off their features onto it ... it must be kept pristine ...
  17. I think the key word is "natively".
  18. Um, Thompson is building a reputation that he can bank on. I doubt very much if he actually believes the crap he is peddling: he is just making sure that if anyone wants to bring a class action against the video game industry, he is the first name they think of.
  19. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Trailer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snakes_on_a_Train Move with the times, boys. The Future is awaiting. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wow, that is really, really bad.
  20. Even if the universe were infinite, our technology only allows us to see back in time about 15 billion years at this stage. However, there are a number of supporting observations to suggest that the universe is only about 15 billion years old, and seems to have expanded from a point (hence the Hubble observation of the Doppler effect and his constant, etc). I do remember seeing a model of the expanding universe and it was a bunch of concentric "shells" of galaxies, clusters and cosmological elements, seperated by large voids. We just can't see beyond the last layer, fifteen billion light years away. (And even then we need a super-bright source called a Pulsar, which gives off the equivalent of the Sun's energy in a second, or something similar.) So, as far as we can tell, the universe is not infinite. Although there is no reason why it couldn't be. The latest theory I read the other day was that black holes contained entire universes. I'll dig it up after breakfast if you like.
  21. I have trouble taking some people seriously.
