oops, double post.

Given how the original Dues Ex. was well known for the ability to use stealth and complete the game almost without killing anyone, I wonder if it will be possible in Human Revolution as well? It would be interesting to see them try to work the cover mechanic into a stealth format as well.

Hmmm... this reminds me, does anyone remember the Supreme court of the U.S.A. Case of California Vs. the Videogame industry? what's going on with that right now? are we winning? losing? has it been delayed or did I just completely miss the news that the trial is over?

Previous national and local campaigns have focussed on women and the risk they put themselves under through alcohol consumption. The emphasis has been on them taking steps to protect themselves. Rather than place the onus on women, we've taken the unique approach of focusing on young men. We...

I'm pretty good with caffiene, and painkillers seem to have normal effects on me, but the problem is that If I can't get a prescription then i'm stuck with extra strength acetaminophen, because going up to the stronger over the counters results in the codeine irritating my stomach.

what about a reverse escort mission? you play as a civilian who is being escorted by the soldiers, and your job is to pay attention to what they tell you to do in order to not get killed. of course, the problem is that any game that takes this concept will inevitably make the AI Escorters as...

I find it rather Ironic that the answer to your question can be in the name of this website. "The Escapist" the answer is that people play games to escape from real life, we want to be immersed in the land of being a master assassin, or fighting off an alien invasion, or doing other things...

okay, I'd like to possibly join in, but I warn you, what little experience I have playing with other players has led me to believe that my internet may not be able to completely handle the game, so It might not work out. I prefer eastern front, and my steam account name is...

as scary as it sounds, I learned how to drive from video games. of course, that is because I played the simulations, like Forza. one day, I hope to learn how to fly planes by playing microsoft flight sims.

In vehicles, it was found by consumer reports that when driving, having the A/C on decreased your fuel economy by about 0.5 MPG. that was more than a few years back though, so if you have a relatively new vehicle that might not be applicable.

you mean like every other 'Gangsta' moron that goes to high school? he'd probably just claim it was his "Cool" walk. OT: I have seen that video before on youtube, but I am now slightly scared as I have realized that the clothes he wears are actually what we are encouraged to wear under my...

actually, Anakin waas never part of the rebel alliance, as that had not been formed before he became Vader. also, because Anakin was fighting for the republic in the prequels, he was actually trying to suppress the rebellion that was attempting to over throw the centralized government.

I thought the P's and Q's referred to pints and quarts. (of alcohol) so when the customers in a tavern were getting drunk and disorderly, the owner or barkeep would tell them to mind their pints and quarts. but I could be wrong.

I don't really notice this, but I usually go for the 'good' alignment anyways. this is because I find that trying to complete games with a 'good' alignment is more challenging than doing so with the 'evil' alignment, and I do prefer a good challenge.

oh yes, most definitely! although I am unsure as to whether my current computer will even be able to play the game :(
