    I don't mean to spoil anything but the film style is somewhat 'raw' at times. A friend of mine experienced some motion sickness. There are some unsettling images that might trigger a physical response.

    With that said. I really loved the movie. Maybe it's because that's exactly the type of storytelling that gets me off. For being relatively small budget the effects were top notch and very believable.

    Sadly I think im gonna give the Old Republic a shot, I'm not a fan of EA, but I am a fan of BioWare.

    ditto that.

    on topic: FFXIV is not going to have experience points.

    sounds pretty cool to me! Hopefully they've learned a bit and will make this new game a little more friendly to new players.

    The main thing I disliked about the last MMO was the fact that new characters had hardly any skills.. and the ones they did have had cooldowns of half an hour or more.. I played a monk up to about level 11, I had one ability that was supposed to make my next attack stonger.. anndd.. I never noticed a damage difference. I had another skill called Flurry or something of that nature.. and it was supposed to increase my attack speed.. and it did. for about 10 seconds. Then I would have to wait for an hour to use it again.

    Also, the UI was horrendisgustating on the PC.

    what many people don't know is that this District 9 is based on this short film called "Alive in Joburg"

    I'm still going to see District 9, it looks pretty excellent.

    Yeah but going through with a frying pan should be an achievement of its own. Cause seriously fighting off a horde of zombies and special infected with a frying pan would make one an immediate bad ass mofo.

    bad ass mofo = dead.

    I can imagine taking out a horde with one. But if you're wielding nothing but a frying pan you're going to be dinner for any special infected. I'd recommend telling your teammates what you're doing if you're planning on being completely useless against tanks, witches, smokers, and chargers.

    ALSO, on the note of melee weapons.

    Does anyone know if there's going to be friendly harm with them? I know that friendly fire was a huge thing in the original, and you have to be really careful with your aiming. I can only expect you'd have to be just as careful if not more when swinging an axe or chainsaw.

    I'm a monster. I can consume about 2 liters in a day.. But I don't always. It really fluctuates because I don't have my own vehicle. When I run out I run out.

    I notice I limit myself more when it's in cans. I'll drink about 3 or 4 cans in a day on average. Also If I'm busy then I'll drink less because I'm focused on something.

    First time I ever imagined myself playing DND...

    DND is just an elaborate board game and great excuse to get together with your friends. It's exactly like playing an MMO.. except your with people you actually care about and you can do stuff that could never be programmed into an actual videogame.

    Back on topic though.. no one is interested in this ..? I find that depressing. :corner:

    Or AR, for us nerds.

    It's an idea that's been floating around for a while now. Just about as long as the idea of regular old virtual type. It's the concept of overlaying virtual elements and data over our existing world. And we'd be able to see and interact with these virtual things as if they were indeed real. -- The reason I'm bringing this up is because this whole concept is getting more and more attention recently and is actually looking like it could happen in our lifespan.

    The way you'll eventually view this augmented reality is with glasses or goggles.

    believe me.. the setups won't always look retarded. Once the world is fully overlaid with virtual crap it wont matter what you look like. You could be optimus prime..

    Did you just invest in this gokuDX7? Im just curious. I just get the impression that you're trying to defend/promote it like you have some personal stake in it.

    as for computer parts.. they've been on the fall for years now. (Which is why I lost my job.) We've reached a point where people don't actually need too much raw power for their home machines. Most people could get by with a netbook...

    Old news, but still interesting. I'm curious how well this will work in practice.

    It's a great idea but from the reviews I heard there was noticeable lag. But it does work for the most part. -- I'd like to see this idea of cloud computing really take off. They'll need the funds to build well located computer farms to reduce the lag as much as possible though and if it doesn't get off the ground quickly then it might fade away..
