I really am not one to defend microsoft, but to call it an evil empire takes it a bit too far. I am sure the motivations of MS, intel or steam are exactly the same. Sure, it is a monopoly, and you have a point, but the are all the same, not one evil and one good. The perception is in your eyes.

when you try to pick up a glass of water and you realise your fingers do not work properly any more. when you see the mass effect conversation options while talking to someone.

I felt like that about mass effect 2. I really expected something with lots of weapons and gadgets, and level ups. I don't know what they were thinking, but two weapons of each type in a sequel to a game with hundreds of weapons, and even devices? And the story... wow do i even care about some...

Looking at the artwork it is clear this is a company looking at gathering funds and publicity, they probably have nothing ready. It will go bankrupt soon enough. Also, you can't play fps games with their system, it will be something with the capabilities of a browser game, as in not console...

Wikipedia page Alt+ctrl+delete_{comic): Internet comic strip published by xxxxx, between 19xx and 2xxx. 1xx issues. it's really notable, i could make at least 10000 pages like this with all comics on the net.

i e The way i see it it is the other way around, the older you get the more faith you stop having.

You can be ignorant enough to their faults, so yes.

Ok it's called a bot net, there are many, many computers controlled by one person, usually infected by a virus or the like. It could be YOUR computer too. The point is there can be 10000+ computers so it is more than enough to crash one server. They did this (apparently) in response to the...

The problem is that you assumed he was giving you discount prices. Sure, it's a bit expensive, but there's taxes, he had to study, pay the rent, and at the and of the day you might have been electrocuted on a nasty power supply capacitor anyway.

From an education point of view you probably want to stay away from the gold coast. Yes there are parties, and fun, (and drugs), and fights, and beaches, but there are beaches everywhere here, and really, student life is fun in any city. Also, in Sydney you might get killed or something...

I thought the whole thing started with some price cuts or something. I am sorry i have no more information, i read it on wikipedia while i was "policeing" it.

everytime i read about Mass Effect, i always hope there will be someone who thinks ME2 is a bit overhyped, to use the poster's word. Well, imho there is no immersion in ME2, you just get sent to do stuff (you have been given some more dossiers...), I personally couldn't care less about the...

1) do a search for file ClientRegistry.blob 2) delete it or rename it, although if deleting it doesn't work you have to reinstall steam so renaming it won't help you in any case. PS: this file is in your steam folder edit: deleting this might make it ask for password. you can have a...

I swear if i didn't live in Australia I would be shocked.

In world in conflict i had one where for some reason all the explosions and scorch marks were red, it looked really creepy and i was in the middle of a really serious game, trying not to pay attention to it. Also, in Team fortress 2 there was a week (dec 2009) when spies could build...
