Spore Spore Spore Spore Spore. Also, this cheap little Steam game called Osmos. It only cost about $10, but it wasn't worth it. And DoW 2. It was very good, but there just wasn't enough game to justify shelling out a hundred bucks (Australian). It should be noted that I don't play...

Supreme Commander is not exactly difficult, but utterly exhausting. You'd start with a single fucking robot. You'd get a base up and running, spread out, take over all the nearby resources, skirmish with some minor enemy forces, and then take over one of their outposts. And then the map would...

Some food for thought on Avatar: http://www.intuitor.com/moviephysics/Avatar.htm I thought it was okay. Too long. And I totally disagree with that whole "Revolutionise story-telling" thing. The whole thing was alright, but there was nothing new in it. Still, I wonder what we would think...

I'm hanging out for Pokemon Ytterbium. Oh, that and Pokemon Seaborgium.

Wait, so you only get 1 karma point per life saved? Aw, shit.

The movie was good. "Changed the way you saw the world"? Um, okay. May I suggest you read "The Good War", by Studs Terkel? (The brackets are a part of the title). A damn good book. Since I'm feeling jerkish at the moment, I would like to point out that the humans that the Na'vi sent back...

How we spend our days is how we spend our lives. It's not the most original sentiment, but it got to me.

WIN!

I would like to take this opportunity to shamelessly pimp one of my dead threads: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.142584?page=3

"Foskett". Feel free to tell me what it means.

-"You have really bad timing." -"That's what SHE said! Wait, shit."

Children of Men, definitely. And while the movie was simply too long to go as a whole, I think that the build-up to the battle of Helm's Deep (in LoTR: The Two Towers, obviously) deserves a mention. They just keep psyching the audience up...
