just finished the game. and i gotta say, WTF? it's way too short, the huge, detailed city is there for no fucking reason and the missions are kinda dull. go to A to receive mission, go to B to carry out mission. it's a trap. beat up/kill everyone. go home. absolutely no choices. i miss the...

no need to invest in i7, methinks. only slightly faster than i5, and triple channel ram gets you almost zero performance gains in day-to-day computing. both sockets are going to be replaced next year and are dead anyway. save the money, get the cheapest i5 (the 750 or 760). they provide enough...

nothing. because engineers thought of that possibility. as a result, almost all tanks built since 1950 have the drivers look through periscopes. IF something happens to the driver, then it's pure chance. i remember the driver of a Marder IFV getting killed by a ricochet 7.62mm round that...

man i am getting sick of these minigames. especially the hax0ring-one. more than once i saw the correct code fragments, but couldn't get there because of the screwed up controls. :? on a sidenote: "SIE" has got to be the most idiotic name for a character in any game, ever.

dream job? easy.

just a quick interlude. homo erectus, after discovering fire and figuring out how to cook/roast meat with it, became quit smart because of that. denatured protein consumes 20% less energy while being digested. this free energy went into the brain, which also grew, and as a result, homo erectus...

what the? how the hell is this even comparable? a bishop who voiced his admittedly rather twisted opinion versus a member of the political system threatening another for the planned screening of a movie, effectively denying him his freedom of speech? no. just no.

the thing that bothers me most about operation anchorage is that the whole chinese invasion force was apparently repelled by one guy (without power armor), who destroyed three artillery pieces, two fuel tanks, three chimeras, around 40 chinese soldiers and one chinese general (well...it was more...

i prefer the more euphemistic phrase "making the game available to a broader audience". :freak: right-o. another point is that dx1 had characters, not just NPCs. paul, jock, gunther (!!!), and so on were people that just had charisma. you could relate to them. when paul and jock died...

i was just about to say the same thing. didn't they receive a huuuge ass-blasting for generally dumbing the game down too much and having it optimized for consoles, so the pc-version sucked? sounds familiar.

RTCW "notify herr himmler!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8xBGLEobRY and, IMO, the best intro of all times: mechwarrior 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjC98BpfGF0&feature=related enjoy.

No One Lives Forever - quite simply some of the best FPS games, gameplay and design-wise. i LOLed a lot.

ah, topware, the memories. earth 2140 was a blast. i never was more impressed by tire and track, uh, tracks.

so is the cited .pdf.

they reduced the yield because the effects of a 100 megaton airburst were unpredictable then, not because of the radiation (even the 50MT version broke windows in finland). airbursts generate comparatively little fallout. besides, the fact that one can increase the yield of nuclear weapons...

especially considering advances in pharmacology. there are certain drugs in testing that prevent radiation induced cell death. they enabled lab mice to withstand up to 13 Gy! so it's basically rad-x, if you will.

these numbers are bs. only around 130 people were diagnosed with radiation poisoning, of whom 28 (yes, twenty-eight) died in 1986. mostly firefighters and liquidators. everything that follows is just subject to speculation and estimation. ust an example: an increase in thyroid cancer has been...

maybe by paying attention to the bible verse that gets thrown in your face from the very beginning? :)

go for an 8800gt. basically the same card, but cheaper. also look for a model that is compatible with pci-e 1.0. some 8800gt models either aren't or require a new bios.

nice one. just a little addition: in my experience conversations of this kind usually provide you more or less with these answers: "Yes." "No." "No. Fuck You." outcome remains the same, however.
