I just bought the Samsung HW-E550 bar and subwoofer after reading this. Somebody tell me I did the right thing please and validate my impulse purchase.

"You're drinking tea."

Unexpectedly erotic.

Okay, thanks. I just need a trimmer that can mow down a bear with minimal fuss, and feels solid in my manhands. The beard buzzers manufacturers often package with hair buzzers can get bogged down in a thicket or overheat, and I'm hoping a dedicated beard trimmer from a reliable manufacturer will do the trick.

Thanks for the tip. Model MS2-390? http://www.amazon.com/Remington-MS2-390-Microscreen-Rechargeable-Corded/dp/B000H6A02A/ref=sr_1_17?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1351104853&sr=1-17

No means no, and sometimes it means don't walk.

How come you didn't put on your biggest smile, tell her how fascinated you were and ask what she was doing?

On the bright side, at least Linn's not in Gitmo. Yet.

And it looks like she was cropping out those magnificent ornate frames out her the photo, too!

Don't be a dick, especially now that we know you have an appreciation for larger women. Rejoice.

I've done some of my best writing in the mile-high club.

No, I'm conflating the two and making the point that graphics will not make my draw drop in amazement if the design is poorly implemented. Art style is not irrelevant to graphical quality. Obviously, tasteful choice in color palette will not beget revolutionary new dynamic-specular-isotropic filtering blablabla, but…

I won't disagree with that statement. The game's influence is unquestionable.

Same page. Doom3 was important in terms of what it allowed its successors to accomplish, I just enjoy playing its successors more.

I appreciate the team's focus on developing that tech. Doom 3 comes off as a study in lighting, which was great for the industry. It was also great for the many fans who appreciate the game more than I. That's awesome. But I don't have as much time as I'd like to play, so I when I invest my time in a single-player…

because i'm getting tired replying to the same questions i'm just going to quote from a previous reply thanks:

Okay, I can definitely appreciate that view. That's what I was trying to communicate, and it just came out as frustration.

High end. I think it boils down to art design. There were many other great games with great graphics that came out that year alone, and they were more visually appealing to me. (I offer up a list in my other reply.) Maybe it's because id was trying to do one technical thing really well and just jumped the shark…

See my reply to the other guy. Thanks for the tip.

What does that say about your view of other similar games from that era? Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory; Battlefield 2; Call of Duty 2; Resident Evil 4; F.E.A.R.; even Quake 4. Those all looked pretty great (RE4 maybe not so much), and they had good art design.
