Governmenta conspiracy!

The terran voices are mostly okay and the music for them has grown on me, even tho I still catch myself humming the old tune:

Each one of the three Terran tunes is a totally catchy tune you will never ever get out of your head Fun times...

*thumbs up*

I was surprised to hear they did not want to work on MW2. If a lot these allegations are true, pretty shitty of Activision.

It just sounds to me like IW is actually populated by intelligent people.

Mankind in medieval times suffered from fear of the relgious oppresion, today's people welcome technological oppresion.

Opression by the Catholic church, please.

His analyses are both fun and kind of true, however the foresight he did is massively exaggerated. Honestly, once stuff like REM-sleep-ads (or whatever) and eye sensors is introduced, humanity will hit rock bottom.

Quote from Minotauro

Im trying to read hitchhikers guide to the galaxy at the moment but I'm having a hard time. The author tries so hard to be funny 98% of the time ... It annoys me very much. I wish I could read the same story without all the unfunny jokes.

Try to read Terry Pratchett then DNA at least has some depth in his jokes (imho).

I don't normally like activist/environmental books but I really enjoyed this one.

Because it's all true Seriously though, I think everyone with some brains left knows that our society is somewhat faulty, Quinn just knows how to phrase that nicely. Well, I might just be too left for the generality, however I'd go as far as saying that Ishmael should be read in school(s).

Quote

But anyway, Jules Verne...

Jules Verne introduced me to Science-Fiction literature.

I second the purpose of this thread!

Quote from Skjalg

Sharks are an endangered species in most parts of the world.

Thats what they want you to believe

I actually wanted to point out that "winners" are per se an endangered species.

Just kidding, hahaha

Quote from Ginger Lord

I don't care either, Company of Heroes is as far as my RTS interest goes.

Insolent peasant, how dare you mock ye brilliance of a franchise such as Starcraft, which happeneth to be one of ye first games I have ever playeth, and thus guideth me to the light of video games!

Quote from skdr

Hexagons. Shit got just real.

Definitely.

Hah, a "next-gen" Civ game, who would've thought of that. I would actually find it awesome if somebody redid Alpha Centauri.

Quote

Gutsy question, you're a shark. Sharks are winners and they don't look back 'cause they don't have necks. Necks are for sheep. I am proud to be the shepherd of this herd of sharks and I am gonna lead you to the top of this industry.

Sharks are an endangered species in most parts of the world.

Hilariously ridiculous movie

Wanna-be Na'vis are the new furries :wink:

I blatantly said to 3 or 4 of them "do you like hip hop, do you like smoking weed" and they gave me this confused "drugs are bad" look

Hip Hop is shit anyways.

But in reality CoD is gonna sell well regardless if individuals that care about games and devs buy their games

Thanks . Also, I'd imagine that the developers don't get as well payed as the publisher's employees do.

Quote from CrazyMac

Agreed...anyone else feel they parted with there cash a little early on the preorder

I guess you're the type of gamer who'd rather buy another installment of COD: Modern Warfare than support a more decent cause and a bunch of decent developers...

Quote from skdr

An annoying delay that shouldn't be in multiplayer games

No, not that. It's purely visual thing. Source engine games have this. When you look right the weapon kind of "sways" to the position after the mouse movement.

I actually like that phenomenon. The more it looks and feels like a weapon, and by weapon I mean a 7 kg heavy, unhandy, shitty thing that you have to wield 24/7 in a war scenario, the better.

Quote

or it's a monastery and monks want some peace and quiet surroundings

Bingo.

For fuck's sake Sentura, think a little bit. Seriously though, the monasteries of Meteora are a pretty nice sight.

I'm going to be a little more realistic here
