Next thing you tell me is that visual mods are bad... well, okay, some of them are quite bad with Skyrim housing some of the worst. With regards to physical products, I can't say I understand why people make their own covers since at this point, who gives a damn? Are you telling me that people have the case displayed with the flat side facing out? I can somewhat understand the spine since at times they don't all line up but yeesh... What do you have to say about official, fan-made products? These kinds are made by fans and get voted by fans. They usually turn out pretty good. A similar concept is found on sites like TeeFury and such. As for cosplay. Why does it bother you that much? They made the costumes. They dealt with all the problems of production. Anyways, since you mentioned Hello Kitty... best crossover. Do not deny it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKyRSq1frFs

Most comics are quite terrible on the layout so they tend to drop twists a tad bit early. They appear on the same page or on the next page (Side by side). Visual novels get around that by dictating the pacing while including music for impact. If done correctly, you can have quite an amazing time.

So, how do you guys feel that the show is very likely going to overtake the books?

I'll be the noble sacrifice so I may let you all know just how long it takes me on Tuesday.

336 pages. Book one of six. The dude written up to the third book on about the Tang dynasty while 4-6 is by other people. These folks seems to write these books with non-specialists in mind, so like me, but should be solid in rigor that a historians can look at it and go "Yeah, that is a good book.". Lets say I am tired of the sensationalist and dumb-down history books you can commonly find. So I go directly to the actual researchers/historians. I hope this guy nails it. I already am studying geologic history so I want to informally study human history. Besides, it is really fun (and sobering) to gather hints of geologic and overall environmental impacts the people in the past has dealt with.

I'm just going to walk in expecting MGSV: The Demo with one hour of gameplay and one hour of cutscenes. $20 for the download PS3 version makes this doable if I enjoy my time and get compelled to replay the game multiple times. If I can do that with South Park, then surely I can do it with Ground Zero... besides, its Big Boss.

Sir Bowes, I hope you know what this means. Automatic emails them.

No.

Everything has been fine for the last few days. Here hoping it stays this way.

Cat of a different kind.

Would 35 GB of textures be real life?

Is it the same audio files but compressed, a select few that are uncompressed or something in between?

Someone is being lazy and needs to get their act together. From what I've read, the beta didn't have people to download all those audio files. At the very least, someone must have noticed that people will be downloading 30+ GB of audio files that the end-user won't be needing. Hell, it would be nice to hear something like that they'll do something about this or even tell us to fuck off but not like I've checked since it isn't important to me because I'm not getting Titanfall. So perhaps they did address it (I haven't heard of anything though).

Goh, your attempt to be hospitable will fail with me since I'll be offended if your Chinese audio files are not in Cantonese.

So it is to my understanding Crimea regional government or its something to that effect kind of let the Russians in and at this point in time the Russians and Ukrainians troops are lining up, setting up defensive positions (Anti tank minefields are included in this... I hope there isn't AP mines...). Russia might annex Crimea at this point and they can just sit in Crimea and wait to see what the Ukrainians want to do. It almost seems like Ukraine will have to take this insult since chances are their forces will be split via factions (A fair chunk of their population are/were Russian) and Russia might ultimately pull ahead. It is to my understanding that Russia supply a fair chunk of Europe's oil needs, especially eastern Europe. So they got that going for them as well. If war breaks, that get cut off. Sanction them too hard and that oil is gone too. tl;dr... Russia might be ahead with and without war?
