Oh LOL that's hilarious never heard of that one before.

Huh, what? How does an OS promote water resistance? I think the iSheep devices have been for a gen or two now, but saying it as the OS is just frickin' weird even if I am getting what you mean...

Didn't realize it wasn't MP at all, but I agree - that's a pro in my book not a con.

Shock and awe... Writing's been on the wall a while man. Good to see you having the rational take-away from the change over though. I wonder what Xevy's take will be?

Textures have been commented on in a number of reviews as only slightly better from last gen to next gen. Apparently not where they put their focus on for it.

Not really, the numbers were clearly not going to work out because employer's weren't adopting the measure and were by and far claiming they were just going to eat the penalty rather than provide any benefit. Frankly it would look best for political purposes to either say "Hey it's costed...

Our WW2 involvement changed quite a bit from initial reaction (in fact at least a half dozen times). The Manhattan Project was originally projected to take SEVEN YEARS for what they asked to get to be able to post results. Space Race I'm not so versed on, but I'd bet it had some schedule...

Learn the powers of the President if you think the President makes the final decision on such things - he can make suggestions, and the suggestions are generally heeded - but that's not where the decision must finally be made. Is "Bagdad Bob'ing" (PS - It's Baghdad) now a sign of trying to...

Stamp of approval = not aware.... O.....K.... All I meant was that the buck stops with the Director - if Obama wanted it and the Director was opposed it wouldn't happen, and v.v. if the Director wanted it and Obama didn't it would still happen. They were both on the same page, but the...

He didn't, the Director of the division did. Obama just put his stamp of approval on it (not that it was needed, but Directors often do like the President to agree since he's the one that can replace them...). And apparently they didn't like how the numbers were going to work out, that's a...

Hasn't played it - states affirmatively it's value.

No clue where the wifes WINS compared for that time - just remember that she was about to lose out.

If you didn't have them previously that does sound solid - been lots of previous packs with all of them before (pre-4) so for those of us with an earlier one not so hot.

Great looking deals - see at least a few that I'll be grabbing (although probably on the last day - money will be easier then since I've got a car repair/replacement incoming...)

Dunno - only time the wife and I got matched against each other - I was fresh on a new Arena and she was at something with 2 losses. (And just conceded to her because she guilted me into conceding!) But that is the only time I've done any type of "tracking" - never cared to, just got paired...

"Feels" 7 or slightly higher from watching TB's thing all the way through, some rough edges (although amusingly rough edges that remind me of T:TDP back in the day) and a little less "openness" from the original in exchange for more realistic building design from what I've seen. [every damn...

Any opinions yet?

Employer-run plans went up quite a bit recently because of the fact that they were LOCKED for the past few years - the actual rate that they went up this year was HALF the expected rate it should've increased. They were projected to go up 4% a year over the past few years and this years rise...

Thief Review The Sham Burglar | Lazygamer .:: The Worlds Best Video Game News ::.overall reads like a decent game with them falling flat on creating the "world" as well as the old ones. And note the same people have a LR review that's worse while it was a very good (albeit niche) game...

Attachment no work.

Just as a refresher, I'd suggest watching Yahtzee's review on the series before Thief 4/Rebooted/Returns whatever you want to call it: Thief: The Dark Project | Zero Punctuation Video Gallery | The Escapist Note all the positives he speaks on with the original, nothing I've seen has...

LR was pretty damn amazing to me, the storyline was wonky as hell and the time limits were somewhat annoying, but the gameplay was innovative and fun. Perhaps it's niche, but metacritic and the like aren't kind to niche. (Plus the whole you can submit reviews without owning a game thing and a...

Intro video reminded me more of the old Dungeons and Dragons cartoon myself.

Supposedly Gamespot averages low and one of the other leaks is supposedly a 9. Interesting if they're correct.

For film the average person can't see above 22 - for CRT style screens the average is closer to 40. (LCD is probably the same, I bet plasma runs a little lower though just a hunch though) So yes, barring a few oddballs, 30 fps vs. 60 fps should be noticeable except extremely low outliers...

Indeed, I miss the hell out of Jyhad every time I play EDH - EDH is fun, but pales in comparison to the beauty that Jyhad had to it. (Even with a fraction of the card pool)

It's not likely for sure, but it might be accurate - some areas have had weird followings over the years with CCGs - I remember the Wheel of Time CCG and Jyhad running out MTG around here for a couple years - it resurged, but for a while from Alliances to Masques or so it really tapered off in...

4 hex and 3 fire elementals plus other goodies - no wonder, heh.

Similar experience with SWCCG here as well Arb outside of why I gave it a shot. Seemed needlessly complicated and not terribly fun. Netrunner on the other hand was complicated but yet still remained fun.

Is that why Angel of Serenity was so easy to sell for a bit? Never saw it around here, think I saw it in a MTGO daily once maybe, never did well from anything I saw, T2 at best.

True - but Standard is 90% of MTG. I still love busting out my Stasis-Winter Orb deck from back in the day (I'd "invented it" before I heard about it - probably wasn't the first overall, but definitely was the first in my area) which was the first true "combo deck" but honestly it's been a long...

Resto Angel stuff isn't combo - Birthing Pod was legitimately a combo deck, as was Splinter Twin around the same timeframe - there's been nothing since that is "Combo" in the MTG sense of the word. Combo is "goes off and wins instantly" or "huge toolbox" (technically the latter is more of a...

Doom beta is a PO incentive - which I'd assume is on a similar engine with similar quality, thus double dipping in goodness. Besides even without it, I bet I'd forget if I'd not P/O'ed it - so much shit going on in my life that I'm sure I'd forget them if I didn't P/O [Got phones to replace...

Worth a preorder it looks, thus done.

Server for HS down or something? Game not going past opening splash screen Edit: Weird, just on one account, other account logs in fine.

Depends on how and when they hit it - if they hit it with the right synergies at the same time it's basically an autowin against basically anything except another Hunter with explosive trap up - and even that can be avoided just with rarer setups. (i.e. the immunity card on a hyena or a hyena...

Everything in MTG effectively has "taunt" - and most of the combo decks you're talking about are a figment of the past or the much rarer played eternal formats that aren't watched closely for balance - it's very rare that a combo deck like you're talking about exists in Standard anymore, and...

Ironic considering you were complaining about the better balanced variant druids have just a few hours ago. That doesn't have all the triggers tied to it. [And it would depend on the account since I have three US accounts (no EU) - 5/14/?? (might be 25 still on the last I only quest on the...

Will check later myself (set it to DL) - don't expect an issue with my vision though, I'm sure the wife will find it a pain if "normal folk" are she's blind as a bat.

Then he officially is Corky level retarded if he thinks it requires no further adjustment. Hell, keep it as is but make them non-Beasts would be a nice fix to kill all the exponential tricks with it - but for all the triggers they allow for 2 mana up to 7 triggers potentially WITH CHARGE - it's...
