It is a very complicated conspiracy, that includes the freemasons, Opus Dei, Muslims, the Bush family, the mafia AND Sony, that seeks to sell more games due to lower prices!
-My girlfriend: She plays the Sims and Need for Speed Underground 1 and Minesweeper, along with some other things. Also, she plays Burnout, Mario Kart and Super Monkey Ball 2 along with me.
-My sister: Plays The Sims and Animal Crossing a lot. Also, played the heck out of Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine, and is a fan of Wario Ware.
-My mother: She is not into videogames, with the exception of Tetris and Solitaire.
-Super Nes. After the Turbo Graf 16 and Genesis had been released. -Nintendo 64. Much delayed, released after Saturn and Playstation. -Gamecube. Released after PS2 and almost at the same time than Xbox
So, when Iwata originally announced that Revolution would be released at least at the same time than PS3, I was happy. Now I see that nothing has changed at Nintendo since the change of CEOs.
Yeah, I just dug that game up last week. I already lost several weeknights to it, and much sleepy-time. That game is so addicting! I actually do like MOO better than all the Civ's. I kinda wonder if its maybe because I played it first.
No, it's just that it is a better game. I played Civ first, and then, years after, MOO. Master of Orion it is way funnier, and has almost nothing of micromanagement. I have tried playing Civ 1 again, but just moving those settlers around is SLOW compared to MOO. Also, every race is way different in MOO, unlike Civ.
My last game that I start yesterday, I got a big fertile planet as my neighbor(70 max) and a huge 120 world next to that! It was amazing. Then two artifact planets that both gave me tech's, I couldn't believe it!
I suppose that Galaxy is subjugated by now?
One of the things that I LOVE to do, is vote myself as emperor of the universe, and then, NOT accept the position.
Starflight is a great game, even today, but it is too hard. I have been killed by asshole aliens uncountable times, and have gone bankrupt many many times. It is still cool to play it from time to time, but I wish I didn't suck as much as I do in it.
The one thing Civilization had going for it that was lost in Civ 2 and 3 was the "conquer the world before lunch" aspect we would always go for
At what time did you lunch? I never could conquer the world before several hours into the game. I realize that Civ2 and 3 are even slower, but that doesn't mean that Civ was actually a short game.
That's why I play Master of Orion 1 now that I don't have much free time. I can play a small galaxy in 2 or 3 hours. Although is soon evident if I will get crushed in the first hour, or if I have any chance.
In my country (Chile), when the government seizes property, it pays the declared value, the value at which the property is taxed. Since this is normally lower than the real market value, people are even more screwed.
But then, it is not for the sake of private companies...
All right slashdoters. It's time to be honest.

I think they choosed the 10 million figure, because on the E3 before the launch of the Gamecube and Xbox (the PS2 was already in the market), Sony just announced that the console war was over, because there were already 10 millions of PS2 sold.

The perfect way of starting a simple game.
One based on Paradise Lost, by John Milton.
An all out war between heaven and hell, and the adventures of Satan to tempt humankind.
The main character is Satan, of course!
Religious!
I do not know, but since a couple of old dev kits have surfaced on ebay, I guess not all of them are returned to Nintendo/Sony/Sega/Whatever.

Maybe more pedestrians should play Crazy Taxi.
Good thing you don't play Burnout, where the game objective is to crash other cars!

Yes, I guess that you can conquer all withjust charriots.
Because, when you said Cavalry, you meant charriots!

They simply don't think too high of their consumers:
A) When faced with the problem of the failing square button, Kutaragi just said that it didn't matter, because the PSP was "the most beautiful thing".
B) Sony just refused to fix PSPs with dead pixels. They said it was just natural with that kind of screens.
They know their customers can be trated like shit. So, why it is so that they expect you to pay more for a movie in UMD than the same movie in DVD?
STOP. BUYING. SONY.
No mention of the fantastic Wario Ware?!
That games includes a lot of minigames controlled only with one button. Not even directions AND one button. Just the button.
Well, sorry. Some hospitals around here (Chile) are public.
Lets say...schools!
Thanks for the clarification.
What if those offices were the ones creating Skynet and thus dooming human kind forever?
That kind of arguments are just silly.
Why they have to sell? Even if they were offered BIG money, they have no obligation to sell.
Now, if this was to build some hospital, yes, it's right to just force them to sell.
But they just want to build some offices for a private company. The people should have all the right in the world to say NO.
Are you sure they have to be paid market value?
In my country (Chile), when the government seizes property, it pays the declared value, the value at which the property is taxed. Since this is normally lower than the real market value, people are even more screwed.

Who is buying these things! Because I am not.
you call them cheaters?
I call that bad map design.
This is good, because, if you read the "article", you can see that more than 1 million goes to the "alter ego", which is all about the girls.
The AvgGeek would be cutting expenses fast!

IIRC.
Thanks for the info.
What exactly does mean the appropiate map? One that makes sure there is never too many people on the same room? One that is not just a huge arena?
