"primary European languages targeted for rollouts in the first half of 2006 include French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Swedish. Asian localizations into Chinese, Korean and Japanese will also be available this year." - is probably what the submitter of the article meant, although I can see why a release in another country might need some tweaking, they've done it for years in American releases originally from Japan, like changing around the controller button configuration, for instance.
I generally say Good Game whenever I've just finished an online competitive strategy game, I picked it up from an online tcg I used to play. It kinda carried over to other stuff too, I guess. I think I remember doing it after an online game of chess once or twice, too. I think a lot of time people do these things because they pick it up from another place, and the situation seems appropriate.
Huh, I haven't bought a new game in months, and its not just because there haven't been any that caught my eye. I've just started college, and paying for the books ate up all my money. And then there's also the fact that I've not been paying attention to games like I used to, I can live without them. If there's something amazing that comes out, either one of my friends will have it or I'll wait until it hits however many titles sold so that the price is reduced. I remember when I was young and all the best Nintendo games got the neat "Player's Choice" sticker and a price reduction down to $20, which was very reasonable for a game I knew was going to be good.:) Maybe they should start doing that again, to sell more 'new' copies?
I use GIMP for spriting and some other stuff, and I must say, it does have a confusing interface. Once I was trying to isolate the two layers of a.gif and I had to accedentally open up the layers menu and copy them elsewhere to get them apart. GIMP isn't too bad though, if you want an interface to complain about take a look at Blender! http://www.blender.org/
