I would be more worried about being extradited by the British. Gary McKinnon & Richard O'Dwyer face possible jail time in US prisons and they are British subjects.
I hear that Bhumibol Adulyadej is an avid rusty trombone performer and eagerly felching sailors at any given opportunity. True story!... this isn't my best trolling but it should be enough to make it advisable to stay away from Thailand. Also, if you don't recognize those terms, don't look them up on wikipedia or urbandictionary. Save your rosy-cheeked innocence and run!
Hell, imagine a game where you play a Wermacht soldier in WW2. Sure would be interesting to see many of the battles from the other side. With a good unapologetic storyline it could be very thought-provoking and engaging. Sadly the topic is so toxic that nobody in the business dares to go against the inevitable media shitstorm that would follow. So they come up with the shitty, but safe storylines we see in BF3 & MW instead
Almost. It's nice to buy games on steam, but unless there is a sale you pay a premium for games. Take MW3 for example, it costs 59,99€ on Steam and I just ordered it for 43€ with shipping included from a brick and mortar store and that is ass backwards.
One would assume that digital distribution would have the potential to be so much cheaper than a physical product, but in Gabe's magical lala land prices are higher and they hardly ever drop at all. While I'm already mentioning MW3, lets look at Black Ops, it still costs 59.99€ on Steam but at the same B&M store I can buy it for 27€ with shipping.
There are few real perks for buying the games on Steam, unless you have lots of money to burn and you really want a 'genuine' TF2 item.
Haught held a sermon, Coyne had researched his opponent to the bone and tackled his usual arsenal of talking points aggressively. You call it an "attack", I prefer to think of Coyne as the goddamned Batman.
Will the system be able to determine if someone acts guilty on purpose by following a laundry list of nervous behaviours. I'd love to subjected to a controlled test and take it for a ride.
The pirate copy will likely not require Internet at all, so only legitimate users will hurt from this.
It is quite possible that loot distribution is handled by Blizzard servers, rendering any off-line pirate copy useless anyway.
This is of course baseless speculation, but I suspect this because they emphasise the player driven economy with in-game auctions/store and such. They can't just let people receive valuable loot without some control. Especially when there is real money involved.
But the Bible didn't say nothin' bout no metorites!
There are plenty of descriptions of meteorite type objects in the bible. From Genesis to Book of Revelation.
Sure, they're described and fire and brimstone or stars falling from the sky. But it's the best a bunch of stupid goat herders could come up with.
Just think of it. If drops can be so rare and valuable that they may become monetized within the game, you can't leave drop rate to random chance. So I'm assuming that such drops will be controlled by a weekly budget. If not regulated in such a manner it's just a matter of time until the economy comes crashing down.
This leaves me worried that the gaming experience will be suffering. Shit drops? Gee whiz, you'll have to wait till Wednesday night for reset!:P

Make it so! There's no reason why not. Unless... They want to cripple players in the name of PVP fairness. /meh
You don't agree with!
We meet again!
There goes my Atheism!
If anyone actually wonders, it tastes like beef with a heavy hint of liver. Nothing you eat for the taste imho.
If any of my friends cheated in BF or COD, well... Lets just say that I know where they live.

But I'm still hurting inside since Diehard Gamefan disappeared.

Not to mention that he got modded +5 *informative* despite loaded language. Sites such as slashdot & tvtropes remain the realm of theists.

"life, uh... finds a way."
Modelled after Somalia no doubt!
For a long time the only planets we found were 'hot Jupiters'. Jupiter sized planets very close to their star (inside Mercury's orbit).
Why weren't these planets stripped of their atmosphere?
Because those are young planetary systems? Just like ours was some 4.5 billion (give or take) years ago. Sounds like a reasonable guess.

This method is also compatible with lawyers.

Noscript is the #1 feature why I'm using Firefox. I suspect a lot of medium to advanced users desire its functionality.

An "object in the seabed between Sweden and Finland" could hardly be classified as a flying object, unidentified or otherwise.
USO if you have to be pedantic.
