I played the original DS about 95% through and then something came up and I never got back to it. I thought the graphics were great and everything but the game didn't really have anything in the way of a decent storyline. It was too linear.
The only Ultima I've ever played was Ultima Online, but I think I'm going to set this one up tonight.
It can't, which makes this a SCIENCE FICTION FILM you dumbass.
Hey Flamey McFlamebait. I think you're confusing Science Fiction with Fantasy. Good Science Fiction should have some grounding in reality, some semblence of real world physics. Once you start doing magical things it's a fantasy.
I wish I hadn't exploited some of the holes in the rules. Besides getting easy/free money using the HIDE skill, I got lots of uber equipment early but using the fact that potions stack. Grind yourself about 30-40 strength potions and you can pretty much one hit anything in the game.
Maybe if I had played the game the way it was intended instead of the way it was actually coded it would have lasted a little longer.
It could have used a more compelling story too.
I am just starting Morrowind - Great game, lots of content. I will be going back to this one for years, I just love it...
Don't be so sure. For a lot of people, myself included, Morrowind started really great but fell apart in the middle. It's gets too easy, pretty quickly.
First of all it's not what people want to pay, it's what people are willing to pay. Secondly, you aren't people. You are just one person. Just because you aren't willing to pay doesn't mean that they won't find a market.
because the wife of one of the contestants arranged for the local phone company to pay for everyone in their home town to call and evict her husband's biggest rival
This isn't true. George's wife had nothing to do with that promotion. A local radio station arranged a big "call in" the first time George was up for nomination. CBS aired a segment that was edited to look like she had arranged everything and it convinced some of the already evicted houseguests that George was cheating. THEN BB broke the rules by allowing the expelled houseguests to talk to the ones still in the house for 1 minute each and one of those people "warned" the hamsters that George was cheating and he was toast.
It was pretty interesting.
George was the older guy who dressed up in stupid costumes for the live eviction episodes. One week he put on camo and made a cardboard gun to look like a soldier and he drew a tattoo on his arm with a magic marker that said "MA", unforunately he was using a mirror and he ended up drawing "AM".... damn I laughed.
I know lots of people who are into reality shows that say BB is one of the worst ones. But I always say it's not a bad reality show it a GREAT game show. Best ever.
There is no wondering about it, Microsoft paid it's $20m in fees without question. I thought it's been obvious from the beginning Gates was funding this whole thing.
that's pretty close. usually commands are composed of 3, 3-letter parts. (i.e. WRKACTJOB = WoRK ACTive JOBs), but not always. But there is never an asterick in front of the parameter name, sometimes the value has one, if it's a system default.

If my math is right, and there is a good chance that it isn't...
Milwaukee's Best Ice Light: 5.1% alcohol, $3.99 = $6.52/oz alcohol
Natural Light Ice: 5.4% alcohol, $4.29 = $6.62/oz alcohol
You should have checked out the fortified wine.
I think PCs are like cars. They both require basic maintenance to run efficiently. You don't have to know every nuance of your car to drive it to work, but you should know enough to get your oil changed on a regular basis.
People need to be trained on the basics, update your virus protection, defrag your hard drive, don't open unsolicited attachments. And like that.
If you are one of those people who refuse to learn anything about how to keep a computer running properly then you forfeit the right to bitch when it starts to fuck up.

You know, it's not really obligatory. It was funny the first time, and amusing the next 100 times, but now it's just kind of annoying.

95% of AS/400 programming is in RPG so you're still obsolete.

I remember making money hand-over-fist making old RPGII programs y2k compatible.
