As compared to the on time and budget F/A-18E Super Hornet, Sidewinder missiles, and several other CVNs? Sure, there have been complete and udder disasters, but there have been many more successes.

And what NATO needs.

Interestingly enough, It is because of their old nuclear reactors. The Navy would love to put the new linear drive catapults on the current carriers, but they can't. The ship's reactors simply cannot produce enough electricity to run such a system. Imagine, too, all the other devices that might come along which the…

Nimitz has been in use for almost 40 years, and USS Enterprise has been in service since 1961 and will retire next year (52 years of service). This ship will be used for 50 years. Now the design may change, as they are always building new ones as the old ships are decommissioned.

I liked the first 45 minutes. Of course, It was all I could play as the game KEPT ON CRASHING BEYOND THAT POINT NO MATTER WHAT I DID!!!! /rant.

Yes, so we can get rid of LOAD TIMES!!!!!

This I never got. Can you really think of no way to use more power? More RAM and you could cut some load screens. Better GPU's and you could have more objects and people on screen. A Faster CPU would let those people have good AI, rather than just standing around. Heck, with more power you could just not optimize as…

It's what they told us in Motorcycle training in California. 70% of all fatal accidents, the rider had been drinking or was under the influence of some drug. 25% the rider was not wearing appropriate safety gear (read: helmet).

Protip: if a country's name includes "Peoples Republic" in the title, its a lie.

Heck, Propaganda is most effective when it can be proven true.

I agree with you. And in a way, we already have such in America: in an emergency it is illegal to deny a person necessary care. The difference is, that they will be billed for their treatment. I am a little torn on this. You had an accident, and received free treatment for it. That is fine. It's the people who do the…

@ GOU

True enough, that is going to happen. But I think the advantage here is making a test so convenient that people don't wait until they think they have AIDS to get tested. Rather, they will test themselves say, once a week or month. That way, it can be caught before symptoms appear and before AIDS has more chances to…

Can't argue with that.

"He represented what America SHOULD BE,"(caps added for emphasis) not to say that America has ever fulfilled that role.

Captain America never really represented America. Rather, he represented what America should be: he is tolerant, hard working, never gives up, and punches Nazis. And I wouldn't call Captain America jingoistic, since the movie is more about punching Nazis than how great America is. Heck, half the people in his elite…

I'm calling shenanigans. The fact that they even said this means that the critical databases are being changed and made even more secure as we speak. They should know this, which means advertising it is just a grab for attention.

Cultural differences. Japanese games are usually made for Japan, and then exported to other countries. And apparently, they like some of the stuff we can't stand over here in the west and vice-versa. In all honesty, it can be pretty amazing how well Japanese games sell in the states. It would be like the Avengers…

OR it could be because El Shaddai was a one trick pony and its only innovation was being base on Judaism instead of Greek polytheism. Which is a shame, it seemed like it had so much potential.

I cannot think of a single franchise I would kill. There are tons that I would drastically change: CoD for example could use a shakeup, Madden should skip a year to come back more powerful, and Sonic needs to be worked on. But I would not kill any of these franchises.
