    Battlefield Cost Publisher "Tens Of Thousands"

    You're spot on here. The practice of not defending a copyright until it is profitable to do so isn't allowed. Basically if you have an IP and intend to hold it then you need to hold it through and through, not wait for it to be fiscally a big deal and then keep people from encroaching.

    Easy to get into Strategy Games...

    +1 for sins of a solar empire, it would be my first suggestion to anyone new to strategy but wanting to try more. Company of heroes is also good. If you want something a bit different try to find some torrents for the old "Close Combat" series, particularly CC2: A bridge too far. They're the...

    Large Hadron Collider

    String theory gets called a myth all the time, assuming that's what he's referring to. And there is indeed debate on whether or not it qualifies as a theory, as it currently does not make any new testable predictions. One flavor of string theory would be falsified if the higgs boson is not...

    Fox News Attacks Environmentally Conscious Games

    I played that McDonalds game, shit was hard. Stupid eco-terrorists kept ruining my franchise =/.

    Did Twilight really suck that much?

    Its kind of a tween drama, one of those movies marketed towards a very specific and angst filled demographic. If you're not part of said demographic it probably won't do much for you. All the hate is because its popular, if said angsty tweens just saw the movie and then shut their mouths about...

    CoD vs. Mario

    Two different studios develop CoD titles. After infinity ward made CoD 2 activision decided they really really liked money. So they brought in this other studio Treyarch figuring that even though its different devs if they churned out something it would sell on name recognition. So then...

    Zero Punctuation: Deus Ex

    I feel the same way, most of the things cut from the original were annoyances to me anyway. I didn't particularly care for having to skill for weapons, and even with a modest skill in pistols aiming took forever. Boss sequences didn't really bother me, even as a stealth character. Kind of a pain...

    Why are you people so negative?

    Aye. It is kinda funny how someone will be spouting off about this or that, then you realize they're basically espousing one of yahtzees opinions. I've also noticed that folks tend to pick up this hipster mentality from EC, at least used to anyway. Then the two collide, and you get some guy...

    Deus Ex : Still Not Killing People?

    You don't have to worry about that....... They don't do that to you. As one guy pointed out, I got my acheivement for finishing/not killing then the acheivement for all the endings 7 minutes later. The choice that determines your ending happens late, I explain a lil bit more in the spoiler a few...

    Deus Ex : Still Not Killing People?

    I don't spoil any of the endings or any plot-line, but the spoiler explains how you can get all the endings quickly. Otherwise you'll understand pretty quickly once you get there yourself. PS. Watch the credits till the end at least once.

    So how is Deus Ex: Human Revolution?

    Yeah, but it generally is harder to knock everyone out, so it makes sense you'd get more rewards for that. The game feeds you some occasional guards that are all by themselves but generally fishing out the entire room one by one is very difficult.

    Deus Ex : Still Not Killing People?

    I did it! http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197971198097/stats/DXHR They do their best to make you regret it near the end though.

    Your favourite moment of bad AI

    Oh man, I remember stuff like that in Rogue Spear. You'd be some 50 feet behind the guy, take aim, fire, miss, only for him to spin around and blow your face off in about .01 seconds. Or if you even just got too close to the edge of a wall or doorway they'd just see you through it. What we're...

    Brazilian Doctor Surrounds Her Home With Fence of HIV+ Syringes as Crime Deterrent!

    They're pretty easy to spot but if your gonna rob a place you generally try to do it quickly, if someone sees you pulling them down it would look pretty suspicious. And honestly I wouldn't want to handle sharps without proper gloves even with all the time in the world if I knew they had HIV...

    Poll: Modern Warfare 3 Sunglasses, Really?

    As much as people like to rag on the CoD community for being a bunch of kids, seeing everyone here flip shit over 100 dollar glasses kinda makes me think the average age of this thread is about 16. Like you pointed out, its pretty in-line with what you see for most eye-wear.
