Xenogears. Final Fantasy 7 with its 4 disks had NOTHING on Xenogears. The damn game was so text heavy that I have seen hardcore geeks go away. The worst thing is that the game doesn't even include a text speed option IIRC. The plot was very drawn out (10000 years). The sequels suck donkey...

Lack of education. The bane of my country. Over here, you can perceive how this country is rich only in money but not culture. Most of the projects that are being considered are either: new rich neighborhoods for the wealthy locals and foreigners, malls (geez, we already have 3 major...

I don't know why people even bother. Democracy is a farce in non-first world countries, where the high standards of life compensate for the non-representation of the voters in the decision-making process. Where I live, everybody knows who has the pan grabbed by the handle: the oligarchy that...

Scarface was very cheesy. I think they should have found a hispanic guy to play a Cuban because Pacino doesn't look like or talk like a Cuban by a long shot. Benicio del Toro would have been great, but I don't think he was acting in the big leagues at the time the movie was made. Andy Garcia...

I think I understand your point: that Bioware is insulting your intelligence by not including male-male sex scene because they are making very broad assumptions about what you expect from the game without considering you as a person, as they assume that you enjoy lesbian sex. Fallout 2 did...

Just a question Kharn. Based on some previous posts on other threads regarding this chauvinism theme, are you saying that because there are lesbians in the game, there should be gay men in the game? Going out on a limb, would this imply that you think people should like gay sex because they...

Playing World in Conflict now. Nice details and it doesn't run too shabby in my Q6600 with 7800 GTX. I'm going to play AoE 3 Asian Dynasties and Company of Heroes Opposing Fronts next.

The Beatles are too corny and fresa "means strawberry in Spanish, too high class-sh and corny) for my taste. Even though I didn't grow up listening to these bands, I prefer Led Zeppelin, Rare Earth and The Beach Boys.

I initially blasted JA2 for its dated graphics and obscene difficulty. Nevertheless, I decided to give it another chance...boy, was that a good decision. The game's graphics are simple but very good, the sounds were a bit cheesy and the voice acting is incredible. I can't put into words how...

Silent Hill 1: The game has atmosphere. The music is very unnerving and grating...kind of like that scene in Full Metal Jacket where Leonard is beaten using soaps in towels. Midwich elementary school is fucking scary...specially when you hear the kids sobbing, you turn around see nothing...

Games: Jagged Alliance 2 v.1.13: sweet zombie Tim Cain...this is tough...I tried assaulting Drassen with Ira, Buns and my IMP merc...the following massacre was needlessly quick. I expected 8 baddies with pistols, red shirts. Instead we got yellow shirts, and a few grays with assault rifles...

This is certainly the best news I had for quite a while. I'll admit that when I first installed JA2, the graphics and the combat system put me off, since I couldn't make sense of it (no percentages to hit)...until I played Silent Storm. Now I'm discovering one damn fine game. The graphics are...

I liked the original more than the sequel. The second is just a shooter with pretty crappy graphics and gameplay. The multiplayer aspect of the first one was quite fun in a LAN.

I voted. Even if the game is stupid, it sets a bad precedent that fundies, excreta (senators, et alia), high-brow assholes get to decide which games are allowed and which aren't. Taste, some might say. Who is to say what is taste, why persist in defending such an indefensible position. Why...

Scarlett Johanson here too. I would settle for a chick that loves me back instead of being one-sided. Failing that, Professor X's powers. To have the cojones that Ozymandias had.* *This last one so I could figure out a scheme to murder the oligarchy that rules my country and...

It's your choice whether to take the plunge now or give it a little time. I was planning to upgrade too but a little expense (trip to Brazil) will slash my budget. Considering what's coming up both from AMD and Intel, it's good that I wasn't able to upgrade right away. Intel is coming up with...

Hmmm, I really wanted to keep out of this argument but when I see such baseless assumptions made, I have to dig in. Starcraft had more strategy than TA? How so? In TA you REALLY had options when it came to defenses (plasma batteries, lasers, missile launchers, anti-nuke missiles, etc)...

I was playing Supreme Commander but after finishing the UEF campaign, I got sick of the game running so poorly even on 1024 * 768. I can tolerate games at 30 FPS but 10 FPS is too little. I'm currently going over Hammer and Sickle again and plan to tackle Silent Storm and Sentinels afterwards.

Put the kid up for adoption? That's one way to get rid of it. Or if the kid wasn't born yet; abortion. In Panama its not very common to do that. Orphanages over here are reserved for kids whose parents had no resources and had to put them for adoption. The kid's father comes from a...

Modern motherboards have sensors that measure the rpm of your fans. Some motherboards can even control the speed settings. If the BIOS throws that error message it is because the RPM have fallen below a certain threshold. You could disable the warnings in the BIOS but I think that's...
