While I appreciate that Africa is a big place, this appears to be nowhere near the size of the Roman Empire. Actually, using the date found here , Mali’s empire was ~1/5 the size of Rome

The first thing to address is that there really isn’t an “Africa,” just as there isn’t a singular European or Asian experience/culture/history.

The second part to address is that influence from the outside well predates European colonization, with areas as far South as Tanzania (and possibly beyond) having been part of…

I’m trying to come up with action (typical action, not comic book) heroes younger than Jason Statham or Daniel Craig (both 47)..... other than Tom Hardy.... I’m drawing all blanks.

I think that’s RDJ who, in the first Avengers, made far more than the salary of all his co-stars put together. Jackson and Johansson made 4-6 mill while Evans, Hemsworth, Renner and Ruffalo made 2-3... so, assuming the big numbers across the board, that’s 24 million. Robert Downey Jr? 50 million before bonuses.

If the Alabama flag were intended to be based on the Confederate battle flag, it would be far less subtle about it. As for Florida, that’s the Burgundy Cross used by the Spanish Empire.

Assigning Confederate iconography to the other states, however, is completely fitting, so far as I am aware.

Could you point out what that “new” thing was? Because it’s basically Dances with Wolves in Space meets Face Off with a dash of white savior for good measure.

The one potentially original concept I can think of was that everything on that world was basically a bio-computer, hence the plug-n-play nature of the USB…

So, why planets at all?

The problem with getting a new planet or two is that everything on that planet is interwoven. The benefits from building an orbital colony are numerous, but I would argue that chief among them is their ability to be specialized. If each individual colony is the proposed 5 miles in diameter by 20…

Apparently KuF II is still under development?

You want amazing? The Newgame+ option. Start the game with almost all the augments, then finish the rest. It’s like god-mode, only less cheap.

My first time with the game was with the director’s cut, so I’m unsure as to what the base game let you do. I do know that if you talked down Sanders and let him leave, he would re-appear and give you some information later on. He also appeared in another mission as a goon where you could kill or stun him.

I believe most bosses had to be killed (they were all on the suicidal side of things) but the Director’s Cut allowed you to do it with a Stealth arsenal and toolkit. So, for example, you could kill the Tank guy by reprogramming the turrets to target “friendlies” and letting him walk into them.

Being forced to kill…

It’s one thing to announce a year in advance, it’s another to show. You want to let people know that your game is coming out 15 months from now? That’s cool. Mention, talk about your ideas, show us the logo, and then don’t come back until the game is in late beta. There’s not much worse than watching a cinematic…

I’m not sure if you’re making a comment about idiots or not, because you can match or beat consoles for ~500 in parts {including the case}.

I believe that was the last part of my post :P

Isn’t it bad that we marvel at the black guy not only surviving, but not getting horrifically maimed in the process?

While the raptor came out of nowhere, his death by raptor had some heavy lamp-shading throughout the film. He compares them to his wolf that attacked his ex-wife to defend him, then gets aggressive with their “alpha,” tries to tame the wild after having that very experience about wild animals never really being tamed,…

True, that one was pretty gratuitous. Still, I guess it’s better than it happening to some non-character that happens to be there?

As someone who likes films involving schadenfreude and people getting their comeuppance, I have to say that I liked this more than the original. Having it all fall to shit just means so much more when everything looked like it was under control.

Also, I’m very curious as to why directors and film makers don’t get…

Isn’t one of the reasons why the industry is suffering because the industry is simply too damned big? Just like every other media, the money isn’t made through viewership but merchandise. More shows means a greater distillation of merchandise over the same population, which in turn means less profit per show. It…

There was something about it not actually having the stated vram; for whatever reason, the last half gig of vram either wasn’t there or wasn’t available to the card.
