  1. Re:It could be worse on The UK's New Minister For Magic · · Score: 2
    However:
    1.) Medicine = Science

    2.) Religion != Science

    Unfortunately, point 2 is often neglected by most people, on both sides of any religion debate. Even sadder, far too many people actually believe that Science and Religion are the same, or deal with the same things.

    Rouges are red, violets are blue, and rogue is spelled with g before u!

    There. Fixed that for you.

  3. Re:That's awesome but... on 10 Years of Half-Life · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I never bought it or played it. I'm thinking about plunking down the dollar to see what the hype was about.

    I would highly suggest it. I bought it on Steam within the past year and never regretted it.

  4. Re:Lack of demos. on Game Developer Asks To Hear From Pirates · · Score: 2, Informative

    This was one of the large reasons I had held off on playing half life (2) for so long. I really didn't like the idea of having the games tied to an online account which, as you mentioned, would prevent me from reselling them. Personally, I rarely, if ever, sell my old games but I like the idea of actually owning them, not just "borrowing" them from the company.

    I really think this depends on the person. Countering your anecdote with another one, I know that there are a number of games that I've tried this way, then went on to buy a version because I enjoyed them so much. The ones that I didn't enjoy I didn't buy, but didn't really play after that anyways.
