This kinda reads like being a media fiasco for being a media fiasco... which is kinda like Paris Hilton: Famous for being famous.

Only serving to prove just how far the standard has fallen.

Clearly we need a "no fallout" option, where the world leaders kept calm and rational and there was no need for panic or strife. It'd make for a boring game, tho.

Getting Saudi Arabia to guarantee oil shipments to China so that China would agree to economic sanctions against Iran is one HELL of a lot more straight-forward and less despicable than selling weapons through an embargo to Iran in order to fund Nicaraguan rebels and release Lebanese prisoners.

The irony here is palpable: Wikileaks' strongest argument is that a democracy cannot run without an interested and fairly suspicious populace looking after its government. In short, that we cannot take the government's word for it. And so we must take Assange's word that he's smarter than...

Eisenhower and Nixon were, despite being Republican, part of a more liberal era.

Not so much allies as they accept detente. And NCR can do so solely because they're the only force substantially larger than BoS altogether AND not totally hostile to their aims.

I still say the problem is simple and singular: There is no monetary benefit for putting in the extra work for plot and dialogue. As for the rest, I dare say even gameplay takes a backseat to stuff you can basically show on a 30-second ad spot: If CoDBlOps or MoH are any indication, people...

Nah, it's just that universal karma is stupid and the best thing about it is that it's also pointless.

Therein, I believe, lies the problem. Said problem I can best explain thus: Amount of money the average consumer would pay for the greatest movie ever to grace the silver screen in the entire history, past, present of future, of cinema: $10 Amount of money the average consumer would...

All acts are selfish acts. That said, some selfish acts help others, too. FotA had that "fresh from college starry-eyed liberal activist" feel to them, with Dr. Thomas Hildern and Caesar being rather egregious examples of what happens when reality gets in the way of good social work, and...

I think the problem with "bringing peace to the region" is that your one-man crime spree really does pale in comparison. :p

I think the important bit is that the writers of the originals had a talent and an advantage: - Their talent was that they wanted to create a world that was internally cohesive and interesting. They succeeded. - Their advantage was that PC gaming overall was still something of a niche...

Technically you can: The game just never ends.

Yesterday's oppressors are tomorrow's fetishes. Watch: In 50 years there will be Fat American Contractor porn.

He scares me. Make him go away.
