Yeah, that's not him.

I'm well aware; was making a counter funny.

Hezbollah is Lebanese.

Distraction by Bruce Sterling, anyone?

Yes, how about everyone named Jolie?

As soon as I saw the headline, I knew it had to be Queen's. Ughhghgh.

" Rainbow Moon also has six playable characters and the ability to customise stuff like weapons and armour."

It's elitist.

Says the guy who thinks Elitist has two e's.

I'm not meaning to blame the American citizen in any way; you're raised on Imperial and largely have no reason to use Metric outside of some professions such as yours so why would you use it? When I speak of the change I speak of the upper strata of power committing to the changecwith the cultural shift…

Well, actually it would be easy and cheap for everyone; switching these systems is a pretty low short term cost considering how efficient total market compatibility would be. And actually no, governments do not do strictly what is best for them and nothing else, otherwise we would not have the United Nations, NATO,…

Except that America does not in any official capacity use the Metric system, meaning it costs Canada (and the rest of the world, but Canada most substantially due to our integrated export economy) a shocking amount of time and money because in dealing with American trade you invariably have to deal with the Imperial…

Perhaps people have finally caught on that while Nineteen Eighty-Four is better written and more traditionally chilling as a dystopia, Brave New World is a far more accurate prediction of where we were and are headed.

Except that the rest of the world apart from you guys and two autocratic African states use the Metric system exclusively because it's more sensibly uniform in every way and is based on the base-10 system that our entire mathematic system in the Western world is founded upon, and quite literally leaves no use for the…

I built a Windows PC (Hexa-core Phenom II X6, 2 GB Radeon 6950, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD— for those who care) this summer and while I enjoy a broad range of Apple products, the support for games has been the thing I've enjoyed most. Beyond the fundamental ability to play pretty well all games, the overall stability and…

I always thought Amber Alerts were international, huh. Snark redacted and now it's funny.

Do you know what an Amber Alert is?

Yeah, that was the kind of shit they were pissed about at Radical, and they handled A+ licenses like the Simpsons Hit and Run as well as the Simpsons clone of Crazy Taxi, as well as the newest Hulk game, and Scarface: The World Is Yours. So maybe they thought PA would be more tolerable but apparently not.

I posted upstream, but my cousin works for Hothead and first as a backstory: Hothead was formed as a splinter from Radical Entertainment (Scarface: The World Is yours, The Hulk, Simpsons Hit and Run), and the experience of licensed games was pretty sour for them there, and apparently it wasn't much better with PA.…

My cousin works for Hothead Games, who made the first two episodes, and apparently once Deathspank took off they didn't feel like dealing with all the royalty issues of licensing characters. It's not surprising since Hothead was formed due to mass dissatisfaction at Radical Entertainment, who produced almost…
