If you argue with weaponsfree about inductive science you pretty much deserve your fate. Also that fish is creepy.

Weapons, can you define something in science that scientists have a belief in? Are we talking about a belief in gravity? Or a belief in lift? Or a belief in anti-matter?

All I remember from the combat in bioshock was dumping dozens of bullets into those girl protectors.

An article on that was linked above but it included only rumor. I've never seen confirmation or results on it. It's one thing for a research project to get scrapped (And really the separation of console and PC has more reasons than just competition to be enacted) and it's another for its...

That's why I tried to have a super-inclusive wedding and reception so I didn't have to make the tough calls on who is invited to what and so that people I actually considered close didn't fall through the cracks. The latter is especially a problem if the groom doesn't have strong oversight on...

The thing is, controller-friendly FPS games are a subset of FPS games. That subset is decidedly slow, reliant on gimmicky cover mechanics and typically includes linear corridors. All I'm saying is that this hamstrings AAA FPS games in such a way that prevents me from enjoying them because I know...

I've never seen published results of a keyboard/mouse vs gamepad comparison on a fast paced FPs, I just assumed no one has done it because no expert would contend that gamepad is better.

If they reboot this they need to bring back zombie hordes being a real thing that prevents any kind of settlement. A zombie horde should be incoming a few days after every good fort-type thing is found. just thinking about how easy it is to settle down in TWD makes me want to play...

ftfy Sean for what it's worth I agree to an extent. I just get bored in all the FPS areas of bioshock.

Yeah cause you're probably going to use your duplo-blox console controller to play it, so you'll need it to be slow paced.

Who said anything about fiction? Zeus is a roided out beach bum who throws lightning bolts. Odin is a real fucking god.

Let's end this now: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansit.../news/?a=30754 Let me know when Zeus can fight on every plane of existence simultaneously and we will continue this discussion.

Yeah except that Odin predates romans and greeks by about a billion years.

'ragged barbarians living in the snow'

.

Bitch r u retarded? Zeus isn't in the same league of powerlevel as Odin. Odin would eat Zeus for an early breakfast after a good odin sleep.

The thing is, doom/quake/unreal aren't defined by being 'hard', they're defined by being fast-paced. Cranking up the difficulty doesn't satisfy expectations of a fast paced shooter. Being able to run at 30mph, jump 10 feet in the air and destroy your opponent with a well placed headshot would.

It'd blow my mind if Kim Yong-sun did what Emperor Showa did. I'm not an expert on post-WW2 Japanese integration but if Kim Yong-sun willfully re-integrated his people with the world and turned NK into a modern state he'd be top 10 all time rulers.

you'll never get better than

Not sure which cliffhangers would be acceptable given that it's a telling of a story we 'think' we know all too well.

Yeah Chael calling someone else's fight style boring is pretty good.

Call it what you want. I say using a new methodology for a device in the time period between when it's better than what it replaces and when it is widely used is pioneering. You are free to disagree: Pioneer 2a: a person or group that originates or helps open up a new line of thought or...

anyone have a problem with this shit being rickshawed?

This is really the wrong image/caption pair. Military tensions on the Korean peninsula are at their highest level in many years [AFP] It looks like Kim yong-sun is at a US airshow.

Hurt me personally? Or hurt US interests? Because the DoD's role is to protect US interests, not just me personally.

I'm glad you're supportive of drones too.

I'm board with drone strikes, but I'm also on board with getting the fuck out of Afghanistan asap. The current time schedule is acceptable but I wish we were out and left Afghanistan/Iraq as a failed state years ago. The core disagreement here is a little unwieldy. Is it possible that...

Yeah the Starks attempting to raise a proper lady is very believable. Arya stark is the outlier here, not Sansa.

Between trusting a UAV operator to make a life-death decision vs a soldier on the ground making that decision I'll take the UAV operator everytime. Not just because they may be more levelheaded at the time of decision and are likely to be recorded but also because they don't have to worry about...

Virtually all US commercial and military air vehicles have auto-pilot. Manned or otherwise. We're a LONG way from being comfortable with or wanting fully autonomous air vehicles. Capability wise we're already there. We already have missiles with guidance systems, but those operate on...

Says he wants comic book movies where he doesn't know the ending Uses blade as an example of this

I guess I'm fine with him being able to change his weight based on the need, and given that he can run at the same speed when small or large it makes no sense that he'd go big in the trailer.

Does he retain the same mass? (I'd expect so given the force he displaced into that man's face in the trailer, but then he was able to run on the dude's gun so he must have different mass? Or just different weight?)

Those are not mutually exclusive things and yes, being an early adopter of technology you actually will use vs tech you will sit on a shelf is pioneering.

I'm no antman expert, but I think otherwise it would've taken him about half an hour to run to them? And they would've left in the elevator by then.

That was cinematically cool seeing him shrink and expand. It reminds me of my favorite scene in xmen2 I feel like the movie depends on them being able to make increasingly clever and novel situations that ant man excels at. As soon as the movie turns into power rangers where he's skyscraper...

I saw that as more of a technicality than a demonstration of his power. The source of the bodies were from his DNA, thus it was not a big deal that he could easily break it. Though it does severely complicate things for Orochimaru. I guess they are 'lucky' that it's the 1st that can do that...

I like states rights on social issues but I'm pretty fed up with states' rights on a lot of bureaucracy. Health care providers being divided by state lines, different motor vehicle depts, a whole host of different laws that depend on the state etc I think are antiquated.

Yeah I was a little surprised that it was that clear also, but I guess we're a little skewed since the only uchihas we've seen closely are Sasuke, Itachi, Obito and Madara who are all super powerful. There were plenty of red-shirt Uchihas that Itachi demolished.

I wouldn't pioneer the technology until it can make something you want cheaper than you can get it elsewhere.
