  1. The late October release allows for the prime Christmas season release ... and if the game isn't very long that will not affect the inital large sales ...
  2. Check out my FAQ: there is a differnt connection for analogue and digital speakers ...
  3. I was going to make a comment about pole dancing, but I wanted to direct the comment towards the character with her back to the viewers ...
  4. How can you not hear with ears like that? It is not logical!
  5. Don't cross the portals ... It would be bad ... Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light ... Total protonic reversal.
  6. No. Or rather, they do, but they are ignoring it. Edit: Damn you Jimmy!
  7. that's what I thought, too.
  8. But you're Finnish ...
  9. Actually, I think anthropomorphizing inanimates should be left to the sky pilots, Volo. Strickly speaking, Nature is amoral.
  10. It won the award for the BBC's Film of 2005, too.
  11. As long as there aren't any elves and orcs ...
  12. *Stop Americanizing the language, there's enough of them doing without you. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My fixation for lingo-rape hasn't stuck on yet, unless you can't find "Americanizing" in the Merriam-Webster. " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Poetry and linguistic innovation are the enemies of clich
  13. Reassure me that you don't live in Helsinki ...
  14. Um, it was an hour ago ... any further jumping will result in unpredictable results!
  15. How do I explain "cool"?
  16. I think I played that one in the arcade: one guy on the front of the engine, and one on the ladder. Silly game.
  17. Well, the latest ATi drivers are optimised for OpenGL, so it's just a matter of some weirdo Finnish person like Torvalds translating it to Linux ...
  18. Thanks for playing, you have not won this round. Please feel free to play again.
  19. Ditto. And I only watched Firefly after Serenity. Same for my non-geek friend, who thought the film was terrific and still hasn't watched the series (though he bought it). I think Serenity gave the SF film a fillip, much as the orginal Star Wars changed the general public's opinion of SF in general (oh, it can be just Space Opera! with the "technology" just magic bits to impel the plot); so too the whole re-focusing of extra-solar exploration paradigmatically with previous forays by individuals into uncivilized and dangerous wilds / badlands (the US after the civil war, for example, but also many others) gives new purpose and (more importantly) new meaning to the old tales of space travel. It is easy to die in the middle of the ocean from a lack of water, after all. Now SF doesn't have to be robots and lasers doing the deus ex machina denoument, it can be regular fiction with regular characters dealing with an unfamiliar (to us) reality: "You live on a space ship, dear."
  20. Donny and Marie?! *Stop Americanizing the language, there's enough of them doing without you.
  21. Yeah, nice that you made it magical Volo, but I would be a little more humble with Nature ... she is more powerful than we puny humans.
  22. Dualboot?
  23. Yeah, but you have to admit to everyone that you have a cleric character ...
