Interesting, didn't know. Still makes it quite hard to believe, but perhaps it's the same for all instances of shows of extreme skill.

That, honestly, sounds lame as fuck. I never understood why people think it's okay to exploit the system to become better (I saw quickscoping in the vid as well, for instance). That, and some of the kills I saw were quite probably staged, otherwise the reflexes required for the rampage-kills aren't fueled just by

Looks pretty good. Getting better near the end of the trailer too, the voice-acting makes it all quite atmos-
NOPE THANK YOU SIR BUT I SHALL ABSTAIN FROM THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT, NOPE NOPE NOPE

I always wonder what the writer behind a post like this was thinking. I mean, look back, that comparison was made a relative eternity ago, yet your post is smug as can be about 'invalidating the argument kthxbai'. The entire argument has already moved on and your very clever retort was already made multiple times

To be honest, even asking the question "is it doomed?" is technological determinism at its finest. There's no way to know yet, the tech is in its infancy, there's plenty more development to be had. Technological advancement and innovation never goes without struggle, especially when it (potentially!) spurs societal

Interesting, considering I spoke to you as I would any of of my fellow students, professors, friends, debaters or whathaveyou, on a level that is both academically viable and not elitist so anyone can join in. I gave options, openings, questions and opportunity for rejection through debate. I basically made myself

Once again, opinion. That it's a part of cultural hegemony, especially in certain countries / cultures, doesn't change the fact that it's an opinion considered fact by consensus. That is why you classify it according to "proper" definitions and why you call it a mockery of love, but let me ask you: is that because you

I can fire off a huge diatribe about all kinds of things, but I'll keep it with this: it's a really good thing games like this can exist, that there's someone making them, and that it treats important subjects with the integrity it deserves.

Or not. You're aware that different people like different things, right? And that some people just plainly get off on being in vulnerable positions, and that that's not always motivated by some darker reason? I'm a completely ordinary guy, yet I'm into a lot of things you might not expect. Humans are different, don't

Scarred? Severely depends on how the parents handle it. If they immediately pull up the covers and start screaming, then yes, scars will be created because the act that was witnessed just got the context of 'wrong' and 'disgusting'. If the parents handle it in a chilled out, relaxed, honest but still ethical manner,

HungryJack's right though, what you're saying is too deterministic. There are more factors involved, mostimportant being how the parent's handle it and/or how media exposure handles it. When I saw my first porn movie by accident when I was a kid, my parents simply laughed, turned it off, and spoke to me about it.

This worrying phenomenon, namely the Fucking-Insanely-Expensive-Gift-Giving that's disguised as Christmas, has been spreading to my country too in recent years. Today we actually got our first rage-tweets as well! Thank god for hyper-capitalism and greed, which is now ruining a holiday centered on togetherness and

That's actually the logical part, when you consider Flagg's cosmic-level powers exerting a zone of inpenetrable 'darkness' which requires conduits of 'light' to exert the power of God or whatever entity. The non-logical part / King-Ending parts are the Hand of God itself, the anticlimactic ease with which Flagg is

Nah, that's not ignorance at all. Like I said, she looked completely different there, albeit more like the Storm pictured here. I'm not even sure if it really is her break-out role, but it sure was for me. Love that movie!

Boyle and Harris have collaborated before, including Harris' break-out movie 28 Days Later. She looked completely different there though.

I snickered louder than I should have. Sorry, ladies.

The irony of the story, and what I actually consider the strong point of the book, is that Flagg is by all accounts the better person than Abigail. He uses force and chaos to create order for the people under his ward, and though his methods may be brutal they're a hell of a lot more efficient. He's, if anything, the

Because they were a collective conduit for the holy powers, weren't they? Flagg basically turned Vegas into a maelstrom of evil, surrounded himself with people with 'dark souls' to say the least. Glenn And The Gang have travelled far and wide to reach Flagg and experienced many hardships along the way (Bible reference

"But in this case, I really don't think it's an understatement to say that the U.S. was at least as vital, if not more so, than Russia when it comes to winning WWII."
Definitely so, at least it's a much less absolute and deterministic way of saying it than 'US won the war'. US efforts were big, with a war on two fronts
