Hey, I understand your hate.

Just pointing out the fact that, given the past twenty months of election crap, I'm starting to have a tough time telling the difference between a gaming forum and a political forum.



I have no interest in ordinary humans. If there are any aliens, time travelers, sliders, or espers here come join me.

What a complete and utter failure that piece of garbage was. Horrible, and I'm astonished Roper allowed it to be released in the condition it was in.

Unless...

Unless he didn't have any say in the matter.


I personally liked Hellgate... once it got past launch and we got stonehenge it was pretty decent.. I had a lot of fun in templar with some friends.. its sad what happened to it though had serious potential.

There is one thing I like from http://news.cnet.com/8301-13772_3-10065899-52.html on the in game advertisement:
CEO John Riccitiello wrote:When asked whether he would consider using Google's nascent AdSense for games, Riccitiello replied, "The quick answer is, of course we would partner with them and anybody else who would write us a check."


I find that extremly funny.

You're being added to my in-game buddies list, and have earned like 50 comments on your stuff for that statement.

I absolutely loved my templar to death.

I put down Hellgate London because for me the loading screens were unbearable (I had 1 gig ram)

Now that I have a new computer I may pick it up again. It didn't seem like too bad a game.

Cross post.. .


http://newsfeedresearcher.com/data/articles_t39/idt2008.09.25.16.17.09.html is where I found that the overinflated sales figures included DS version.

I found it odd when I couldnt find any sales figures on JUST Spore Creatures DS so I searched more and found this article.

Im betting RA3 will be a SPORE game.
Cause I couldnt play CC3 Kanes Wrath cause stupid bugs and off balanced units.
Before making a new they have to clear bugs off old ones...


If you click GDI chooper with a nod soldier it will take you aboard and your guy stay in that chooper forever.
One GDI soldier squad equal to 2 nod militia and a rocket squad.
Reedemer Super Nod vehicle could destroyed by two orkas...
GDI Zone Raider Squad could destroy anything within a sec.

4 months passed Non really working patches.

And about RA3 they used all the old voices of units.Funny


Im only getting RA3 because Gemma Atkinson's in there, and it's gonna be a less than legit one

So what can we do? We're just world citizens of the gaming world, and it doesnt take a genius to guess the terrorists.

Btw, is the missing contents in the Galactic edition shipped for Australian markets considered an advertising lie? I remember it being quite hot around here.

I'm starting to have a tough time telling the difference between a gaming forum and a political forum.


And that's a hell of a commentary on the state of the political system. Both the UK and Australia are turning into police states and the US doesn't seem far behind.

Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Who are the true terrorists, period?

I was pumped for Hellgate for a while but then they broke their promise about not making it have subscription fees so I bolted. I haven't bothered to look up anything about it since about 4 months before its release.

I even made the best music video with the trailer (if I do say so myself. 7,563 views and 5 starred) but I removed it along with my other 18 music videos after one got taken down by youtube at the request of a record company. I freaked and just took everything else down.

(I know its stats because I took a screenshot of my video list before removing them)

The story so far:
In the beginning, the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people mad and been widely regarded as a bad idea.

Best post of the past 3 days.

Thanks a lot for this.

1984 is probably one of the most important modern novels.

It has become obvious that we live in an Orwellian world.

And clearly the minitrue has begon a war against us.

(minitrue being the ministry of truth. If you know your Orwell .... )
