Reddit is just a hivemind that ocassionally has pockets of interesting discussion, but by a large margin is a huge echo box where any dissenting opinion is downvoted into oblivion.
At this point I am not sure if they continue following some ideal or they are just used to it and carry on.
Yeah, I took some time to read on that. Given how the chavista party behaves, everything is possible, but considering they are a minority in the Assembly right now, it's not that strange they would send a guy who had a stroke to speak just to make sure they were there.
"I used Windows for years without any live running AV application"
Yeah, that's called using your common sense, which, ironically, it's pretty uncommon.
Anita once said Shadow of the Collosus was one of the most mysoginist game she had played (not hard, we know), and given it's pretty awesome, it's a safe bet.
I might just be the only person on earth that loved the second part of the game. I thought it was brilliant, fun and exciting. If anything, the parts that dissapointed me were the aircraft level and the final boss.
I play a lot of different games, though most of them are towards the surreal or horror setting. Currently I am playing Cry of Fear, Left 4 Dead 2 and DOTA2, plus a few games I play to kill time, those being The Binding of Isaac and Prisoner of Ice. I also play whatever indie release sounds like fun, the last ones I played were Papers, Please, Sword and Sworcery and Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs.
I thought it would be the case: I would come back to OoT but I just couldn't get into it. I've been trying to play Majora's Mask for years and I just can't find the inspiration. I certainly believe those to be great games, I just can't play them anymore.
You see, I'm not even solid middle class, though I have a degree that took me 8 years to get because I had to work to pay for college. I have a job and I *still don't make as much money* as some leech that's living off welfare. I am angry because despite working my ass off and getting an education I can't get off the ground. Instead, we get laws that protect criminals, leeches and corrupts. Chavistas have been "attempting to do something" for 15 years by now. Obviously, they have no idea what they are doing, and in the process we live in a country which minimun wage is around 50 bucks. An underage girl who gets pregnant by a killer who's in jail and lives with her grandmother makes more money than, say, an engineer. I understand she might need it, but this country is raising a generation of people who don't want to work for a living, because they want to suck off the government, who, fishing for votes, encourages it. TL;DR: I'm not, and you're talking bullcrap you have no idea about.
Prices are so high in Venezuela because of inflation and exchange control. A dollar is worth 6.30 Bs according to the government but it's nearly impossible to get them, so you have to search in the black market where it goes for at least 60 Bs. This store (Daka) though wasn't importing merchandise, so the prices were not just, but since it was allied with the government, it was allowed to sell at whatever prices: something happened, either they screwed up or this is just an election ploy (there are elections next month). Now, the rest of the affected stores ARE importing, and why would they do it now? Since Venezuela's production is nearly zero, this will only lead to broke merchants, and less market fluidity. And these "cheap television sets"? They are being sold at three or four times their price in the black market. As ussual, Chavists are breaking this country apart.
Very well said. I'm pretty sick of people going "I AM SO TALENTED BUT PIRACY DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO LIVE OFF MY ART". Open Source "Art" sounds like a good idea if you do it for free, a buzzword if you don't.

You're one user out of millions though. They wouldn't have rolled it out for free if they didn't know it would be profitable and you know it.
Actually I don't think Quake had that weapon swings when moving.

(He actually had a stroke.)

I agree. I can't really remember many major remakes being released unless backed by a heavyweight (IE Black Mesa)
Sounds like any other post-Pulp Fiction Tarantino film.
He seemed a bit distraught about what had happened earlier, though.
Uh what was Intel doing there then?

You won't likely remember who she is after this all blows over.

Crysis 1's ending was great? :/
What ending?

I've been at that point for the last ten years. Once I grew out of Pokémon and Zelda I haven't had any reason to play a console game.
"Sorry, Venezuela haters" Yeah I can't take that guy seriously.

They will probably end up eating them, since there is a food shortage as well. Also, toilet paper shortage.
Thanks. Fortunately, it is, but at some point this madness will hit everything in the country.

Yes. Source: I live in Venezuela.
