That's the past. Death Knights, as you know, start playing open world content at about level 60.
I don't play WOW, but is there an option for Death Knights to start at level 1? For example, a new player might wanna be a Death Knight, but may not want to skip all the early content.
The avatar thing connects with Haldeman's "Forever Peace" very well.
Really? How so? Forever Peace's "avatars" were state-of-the-art war mechs. In this movie, they're genetically engineered alien body. You may as well compare it with One Must Fall.
Yes, the CGI is stunning - for most of the trailer, it's hard to believe it's not live action. They have made a huge leap across the uncanny valley, and successfully.
Wait, are the humans CGI too? If so that's very good, otherwise it's not really relevant to the uncanny valley.
Absolutely it is. Killing a thief on your property, in the act, is morally acceptable. It's a perfectly civilized act in response to the uncivilized act of the thief.
So cutting a thief's hand off is uncivilized, but lynching them is all right?
Feel free to use deadly force if you believe your life, or someone else's life, is being endangered by the intruder, but once they're fleeing (whether with or without stolen property), you have no right to kill them.
Because it's the hotel's fault you can't operate an alarm clock?
Because it's the hotel's fault that they advertise a service that make you think you don't need an alarm clock, and then don't deliver.
Car analogy time: Imagine going to a full service gas station, and telling them which type of gas the car needs. If they fill it up with the wrong type, causing a breakdown, it's not the driver's fault for "not knowing how to fill up their car."
Making an interface that actually works properly on both Mouse+keyboard and gamepad(never mind wii stick) falls into the "squaring the circle with world peace" pile.
Personally, since I bought the Xbox 360 Controller, I don't mind playing ports which skimp on Mouse+keyboard:).
The Prince of Persia: Sands of Times trilogy (haven't played the new PoP game) was awesome with the gamepad on the PC. In fact I'd say that a dual analog stick gamepad is by far the best method of control for these types of games, just like mouse+keyboard is by far the best for first person shooters. So when you port the Halo series games, you better make damn sure they work as well with mouse+keyboard as any PC-only FPS does. But for third person platform/melee combat games, don't worry to much about it. Make sure it's somewhat playable, but it doesn't need to be a transcendent gaming experience (think of a serious flight-sim with mouse+keyboard).
The existence of extra terrestrials, with the technology to travel through the vastness of space, and capable of reaching earth, changes the dynamic considerably. It means that earth needs to build up that capability and defenses fast. The ends don't necessarily justify the means, but when you're facing planetary extinction as a concrete possibility, a lot of rules can bend really far and still be squarely on the "moral" side of things.
Yes, because mistreating a bunch of aliens on the ground could in no result in retribution from their homies up in space.

And yet Niven's Earth has legalized pickpocketing because it's "unenforceable." Always found that strange.
There was that recent case of the judge who was bribed by a private juvenile detention center to send kids there.
I'd be surprised if they don't already have this in Japan.
Why should they make sure? This is a prison, not a mental institution. If a diabetic prisoner does not want to take his insulin, that's his problem.
Wait, where's the black hole?
Angel was an excellent show. Far better than Buffy IMO. I'd equate it with Supernatural.
Yes, I use a VCR. It gets the job done.

Just because it's an illusion, doesn't make it any less real.

After all, they spent all that effort to genetically engineer Maenads.
Wouldn't most people accessing The Pirate Bay, especially for "illegal content" be using TOR or other web proxies anyway?

And cosidering pi is irrational, once we notice such a pattern would there be anyway to prove that the pattern extends forever?
30 days in jail for cutting a person's cheek open? That seems a bit lax....
Just like IDEs have ruined people's ability to write syntactically correct code.
Not everyone who uses computers has email (or a cell phone for that matter.)
This wouldn't have happened in a state/city where the Second Amendment still exists.
Yes, because both parties would've been armed, so nothing bad could've possibly happened.

Warrior wearing all plate and carrying a huge freaggin' sword would make minced meat of a Rogue wearing leather no matter how sneaky he was.
Even plate mail doesn't cover 100% of the body. In various books at least, a dirk to the armpit is often enough to bring the big bad warrior down.

We want a game that doesn't run again, like Crysis did the first time we subjected our poor socket 939 rigs to it.
I think you're pretty much alone on that one.
I'm pretty sure it's the whole nuclear = radioactive = spiderman thing...
As far as the general public is concerned, spiderman was the result of genetic engineering, no radioactivity.
