The worst part is, he's not just missing the point, he's missing the point of making the point, which is to ask why Piracy is bad. Because, well, it's NOT theft, because you're not phsyically REMOVING a copy of the game. So why is it bad? Well, it's a "lost sale" - they're obtaining your product and you don't receive

@Firrous: If your gauge for effectiveness of a martial art is "They can land a kick" that's a pretty low bar.

It only works with the first shot. I mean, you actually get an M60 in the original Magicka at one point XD

I agree. He played an awesome Delta Force operator in BlackHawk Down.

So THAT'S why being an astronaut is dehumanizing.

@kagekiri But this is sort of like saying you prefer movies where someone tells you the story instead of shows it to you.

@samwise227 Characters and narrative really are distinct. Think of it in terms of episodic content - if you have an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that utterly fails to tell a convincing story, is it because the characters are bad? No. The dialogue? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe it's just that the events were

I don't think he's saying that you can't tell a story with a video game. I think he's saying that Metal Gear Solid 4 is the wrong way to go about building narrative and story into games. And if that's true, I agree with him.

Man can I make some suggestions for the next couple of these? Spore, and Half-Life 2. Spore is obvious, everyone knows that one. Half-Life 2 ... because if you go back and look at what they promised in Half-Life 2 - super smart AI, threat-based AI, epic battles with NPCs all around, fully destructible environments,

When you have a show that's HUGELY popular for the first season, loses half its audience for its second season, half again for its third season, I didn't even know they HAD a fourth season, and then gets cancelled - yes.

@ConfederateRokr: Look, I wouldn't be a dick if you were capable of admitting you are wrong.

@AlphaJarmel: I know, this guy is amazing. I've never seen rose-tinted glasses so dark you can't see through them any more, so it's a first for me.

@ConfederateRokr: Lead Writer for TOR Daniel Erickson's response to this question was to specifically say that BioWare is delivering not just Kotor 3, but Kotor 3, 4, 5 & 6.

@Katamoran: This app is "essentially" Minecraft the same way that Minecraft on peaceful mode is "essentially" Infiniminer.

Yeah, I don't do this either. I'm not the type to believe that being able to, or not being able to beat a video game makes me a better or worse person.

@slim934: You do know the vast majority of them hate foreigners right? And that, if able, they'd kill you for being American?

@t3knomanser: You do realize PIs are licensed right? And that their license is not unlimited?
