There is a school of thought that says the scientists operating particle accelerators are taking an unconscionable risk with our civilisation because, so the reasoning goes, they may create a singularity as a by-product of an experiment ... causing the immediate and total destruction of the planet and solar system.

Stuff that broke.

I saw that in the bargain bin yesterday. I did not buy it.

Afros are a great idea!

The respawning monsters ate them.

I'm sure you'll be able to reset the dialogue, to read it all again, if necessary. (Well, I hope so ... even the old text adventures do that.) Water Physics means refractions (vertex shading) and reflections (pixel shading) for water-covered surfaces. Also it might include slowing movement through a river. Horsies will be there, just as Ornks.

I have heard that Europa Universalis was a reat game, too: like Civ, only realistic. I am tempted ...

Has anyone played this yet?

He was pretty creepy, too.

Don't try to understand, Darque ... you may succeed :ph34r:

I dunno, reverse cowboy has always been a favourite of mine. Edit: damn keyboard.

Your player shoots bad guys, who hide and stuff. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Shoot to kill baby shoot to kill! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So, it's like Unreal Tournament 19 pages for that... people must be bored while waiting for something. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Don't be so lazy. Go and read the thread. I have just bought the game and am installing it now.

You don't see to many giant rabbit ninja battle mages these days ... Diablo was PURE CRPG goodness. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quiet you.

I think the problem you would run into is capturing the "epic feel" of Star Wars. now, maybe that isn't really a problem going forward but it would represent a departure. I think a story based on a merchant (smuggler) who spends 3 movies stuck on a remote planet having to deal with a heretofore unknown race and even help them find a solution to their civil war would be interesting. more localized stories.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Of course it needs to depart fromthe children's tone of talking down to the audience about big stuff.

As long as I don't get the Repubrik Front!

OH NOES ITZ TEH B

Thanks for that! (w00t) Listen, mush, they are televising the Sandhurst 1974 re-creation of Hitler's invasion plan of Britain (using some of the surviving German and British officers). Just like the Normandy landings of our timestream, 8000 German paratroopers, landed behind the defences whilst the stukas divebombed strategic military targets, rather than London. The coastal defences provided the planned delay of about 3hrs. Then came 7000 men and support. 90,000 German troops on British soil on first day. At this time, the Royal Navy arrives from its Orknay safe harbour (away from the pre-invasion stuka raids). No tanks meant that the Blitzkreig strategy was unbalanced. Critical moments: a third of German troops lost, just 60,000 left and the British forces had massed in front of them (with the Navy behind) meant that the week long invasion was (conveniently) defeated. And that's with old generals and Hitler's invasion plan. Just imagine how they would have done on their own merits!

There is no way that the drugged ravings of Hunter S Thompson comes close to being better than Brazil (complete with Robert DeNiro!). Your tastebuds are officially located in your posterior.

It's not brilliant like Brazil, but it's interesting in a the-Napoleonic-French-were-worse-than-Nazis-in-their-own-way kind of way.

Just watched Blade Trinity. I'm confused. Jessica Biel was worth watching, but the plot was very strange. Almost like half of it was cut out.
