I'm aware of that historical point (well, actually it is my area of speciality as I also have a masters in History specialising in inter-war ideologies and WWII). I just meant Mercedes and Audi/Autou Union in their relationship to the Third Reich and their involvement in a number of controversial programs, yet coming…

What you just wrote reminded me of a South Park episode (yes, I'm sorry, I have four degrees and I am bringing South Park into a discussion), where the characters used the term "fags" in a way that had no homophobic meaning, to a point that it had lost all of its "power". Perhaps the fact that the word "gay" is used…

Marines with the blue aliens, that would be it (well turquoise).

Yes, it was a bit of a stretch, but when you have pre-built engines, tools and so on it takes a great deal of the work out of a project now and often results in a muddled mess of codes and programs to get a game to run. I just have more respect for the older projects that had games built from the ground up, using…

The volk of Germany needed a cheap affordable car that the average person could afford and keep maintained with little work? Oh, yeah that other reason... shhhh they don't like it when you mention that at a VW dealership (or Mercedes and Audi)...

? (Filler, it's like spam and just as bad for you).

I'm with you on that, it disgusts me when I hear a comment about how someone shouldn't be playing a game, or doing so online because they are "noobs"; guess what "losers", it's a game! On top of that they have to start somewhere, just like said person did when they started gaming. I am usually too busy working,…

It's stories like this that help remind me why I am keeping my first car (despite all the bs I get from people who bother me about it), no matter what my situation is (as far as I can help it). Too many people regret selling their first car, they have their reasons for it and many of them are great reasons, but only…

And for the most part, I think it is a sad pathetic joke. Grown men playing a game for millions of dollars, that children enjoy for the sheer fun of the game. I have far more respect for a single amateur athlete, than I have for all of the professional sports world combined. Perhaps that point of view is why I see…

You can always use the ancient spell of console command to bring her back to life, that is what I did in Oblivion when I was forced to kill NPC characters I wanted around still.

Do I sense a more internet/media integration as a result of this move? I wouldn't be surprised if the next console indeed had more of an integrated feel with the internet, all the consoles could do with a little more of that (my PS3 feels as if it is schizophrenic when it comes to the internet and how it deals with…

Just don't take it for an x-ray...

I remember when I thought that TFX looked so real, lol. To be honest though, games dating back and near to that time impress me more than most current offerings. What they managed to do at the time with what they had, would put most modern so called programmers to shame.

I got married in game and the creepy bitch just kept starring at me and "my wide" while we were in bed, that's just wrong (don't just stare, join us or leave). Either they need to give you bigger beds in Skyrim, or make her loiter somewhere other than your bedroom.

Exactly, if you are that serious about a game that you can't take losing or are considering something as described in the article... you need to put the controller the fuck down and get some p+++y, seriously, put the controller down! I remember when I started to play online FPS games, such as counter-strike, my…

Please tell me this is supposed to be humorous, otherwise this is an "epic fail". Only through the suffering of learning to play shooters, can you arise like a phoenix from the ashes of that grenade that just landed at your feet, and return to RPG some poor noob who jumps in your way... Or alternatively, if you can't…

I would believe that it would be the reason behind a comments section, to openly debate a topic (without letting things get out of hand) in a free manner. I personally haven't had any problems, perhaps you posted something they found offensive?

Ironic isn't it, talking about self censorship, when they are going about censoring the opinion of others on what is supposed to be the discussion portion of a commentary based site. 1+ for an open debate? Nope, I don't think so this time.

Unless you get their IP address, run a search for the physical location, google-map it, pull a"Jay and Silent Bob" and personally kick their ass into submission. Either than that, no, you are free to talk smack all you want.

I learned my lesson a couple of weeks ago with over clocking and trying to put programs like this to the test, it made Scotty sound like he actually knew what he was talking about when he said "She's breaking up Captain, and can't take any more". I lost a good BFG 280GTX card that day... and the next I bought myself…
