just a heads up about the lusitania. They fucking sailed that ship into the middle of a war zone. OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BE SUNK. The germans even put a ad in the paper afterwards telling the US military conduct, and that sailing ships into a zone like that will be destroyed without warning.
Provoking without looking like you were the one that started it.....just like pearl harbor.
i kinda like how they have their business model. give employees "virtual shares" without any real power outside of the company to keep them happy as well as keep them, appoint your ritzy executives in a council but give the illusion anyone can be voted in, and lots of performance gauging of the workers. sounds more effective than the u.s. company i work for, honestly.
I don't think that's true, or else there'd be no ice queen wives. And trust me, i've seen some frigid wifeys. Approaching Absolute Zero cold. You could fuck her and call it a eskimo pie cold.
maybe i'm missing something but i'm used to people talking about "turing machines" as a machine that is "turing-complete", not looking like a hypothetical turing machine he described in his paper. Is this aesthetics over the principle he meant it to be taken by? Cool hardhack though btw, love to have one of those on my coffee table.
Honestly, from my experience, nothing will be the same as the original experience, even if it was back to isometric tiles again. Though honestly i don't think that's the producers fault, but more along the lines of growing up a bit, changing individual values (i.e. nowadays we expect something different in a game we buy subconsciously) and other factors which everything said make us just not like a franchise as much as we used to.
I mean, this is all personal experience, don't get me wrong, but i'm 25 now. I was 17'ish when i got into fallout 1 and 2, and i absolutely loved it. Hell, i still play it from time to time. But as far as loading up a game from the beginning, and testing out situations as they occur, simply wandering a map, awestruck in the multitude of options available? Not so much anymore. Maybe i'm old now. Maybe games in general don't mean as much. But trying to find that aqua vitae of gameplay experiences is a red herring, and needs to be approached differently.
Apologies for the rant, btw. Plus, it was really lame not being able to shoot the kids in FO3. Thanks for helping ruin the game, government.
mmmm, tribes 1.... a bit offtopic, here, but remember that mod on T1 when you could have a interceptor pack, and you could go around running into people in your craft? And like, pop out, pop back in, and your ship was at full health? mmmmm good times, good times....now THAT was a mod...
i think you're misunderstanding the posters intent. EVERYONE is scaring people into using their products, using their slogans, using their voting habits. Not just the republicans. Not just the democrats.
i don't mind the adaptability, but at least show the players of the games that have the "auto-adjust" enemies that they're owning them at a much higher than normal difficulty! For example, maybe make the enemies say different things when they die/walk around depending on 'how adjusted they are, or add a special combo meter that increases faster the harder the adjusted difficulty is. That was the players feel rewarded, even if that special combo meter doesn't do much, so much as its there and they're getting ~something~ you know?
1 1/2 feet? Perfect, i see some applications for that. Imagine having a electric car, parking it somewhere, and having the parking spot automatically charge your car. No wires, nothing that can be stolen, because the device is under half a foot of steel enclosure.
I can see the 30 second promo clips of 50 cent playing on cars driving past....ugh. Now there's a valid reason for self-euthanizing if I've ever heard one.
So, lemme get this straight. Someone wanted to do something remotely through amazon , which could have numerous privacy concerns, and they told him to get bent or get a subpeona? Everythings working fine here folks, the risks to privacy and "gifting" a kindle to someone you could later track down outweigh the benefits of disabling and tracking. I applaud amazon, personally.

/yawn no Reductio ad absurdum plz, i just can't really pay attention to anything you say after that.

anti-science elitism, you mean, right?

ahhh, good point. i didn't even think of that. i just assumed the hackers would already have access to their source.
Open source got open'd?

2-3 wpm, depending on how fast you can move your penis and how long/hard you can sustain an erection.
OCD geeks aren't the only type of geek out there, you know.
posting as anon without posting as anonymous coward = epic fail.
