    I can't see any future in this topic, except for a fatal dosage of spam.
  2. *pruned* Don't spam this thread. Or else. This thread is for the Team Gizka. You may post serious questions. (And not those already asked: read the thread. READ IT. Then ask, if it hasn't been asked and answered previously.)
  3. I bought a toilet and freshwater. :happy:
  4. ... With nano-augmented strength, speed and munition-resistance?
  5. ... You need a dictionary?
  6. I have never had the urge to play a Bard, so I can't answer your question, except to say that (when I've had one in my CRPG party) they always seem to have a positive effect. Don't forget Arcane spellcasters are notoriously feeble at lower levels.
  7. So ... *nix. :happy:
  8. Kotor: http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/games/view.mhtml?game_id=3154 Kotor2: http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/games/view.mhtml?game_id=3664 Easy to forget that the name is actually Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Hmmm, strangely, I have an urge to replay KotOR, now ... "
  9. 240W? I can barely step that fast on a stepper in the gym! If they manage to migrate the GPU to a smaller die then it will draw less power ...
  10. -- READING COMPREHENSION -1 --
  11. A confession is only needed for a professional police state. :happy:
  12. ... And a coffee-stained trenchcoat.
  13. So you advocate the purchase to go ahead, then.
  14. Was that the one where you could smash the backboard? What's your opinion of M2:TW?
  15. What game is that Meta? :confused: Space Rangers 2
  16. That goes for alot of places as far as I am aware. ... And also for a lot of industries, such as creative types in the film industry, too.
  17. Let's keep the ad hominem attacks away from the discussion, lest observers think that we are uncultured barbarians. Please direct all energies towards an unemotional dissection of the facts, not towards emotional attacks of the proponents. It just looks ugly.
  18. I notice you added zero to the discussion. The Big Kahuna. Spacey and DeVito are brilliant and the script is pretty sharp (so far).
  19. Gorth, you must gather your greymatter before venturing an opinion.
  20. I'm not sure if I understand the database correctly, but Neverwinter Nights 2 is there and KotOR isn't (yet).
  21. This makes me think of something like Alyx 2.0 (upgraded Alyx from Half-Life 2), which is a very good thing. To me this reads "forced parties" in which I'm stuck with characters who disagree with my actions and constantly hound me about it, ala Neeshka and Bishop. How aggravating. Sigh. Perhaps Bioware can make it less irritating than Obsidian did, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Even if the rest of the game was perfect, I'd give it an 8 just because of this. But I may be overreacting, so I'll wait and see, and give it a chance. If you listen to the developers' commentary on Half-Life 2: Episode One they did a lot of play-testing around Alyx's character. If she tried to hurry Gordon, then the players very quickly got annoyed. They decided the best attitude for Alyx was to have her trust the player (and by implication, the pace that Gordon set through the game). As for the "third level" of communication, I'd be surprised if that means more than "mood fidgets" (my terminology), like angry = menacing pacing up and down, etc. I must say I'm a little skeptical about the net benefit that this "third layer" will provide, though I would be more than pleased to be surprised.
  22. Wow, that's a lot of assumptions there. For the record, the British Constabulary had a high-level political review a couple of decades ago (Thatcher's government) and the executive summary was that the force was institutionally racist. Not a surprising conclusion, you might think, but it certainly was a bold assessment, and calculated to help the society to improve. And not too many other police forces (read: none) have ever even dared to have such an explosive commentary made about them, let alone published by the government. I think you are over-egging the pudding by calling the police force institutionally racist now, though. That's just not supportable with the evidence.
  23. The USA don't use the French spelling of the word and neither should the Brits. But thanks for playing. The British use the BRITISH spelling, but thanks for trying to play.
