So Dark Souls is pretty much coming to PC. https://www.facebook.com/darksouls/posts/308379115895735 (unless they're gonna announce a sequel so soon)

My understanding is they're part of the laws. And while your average citizen isn't going to be building homes or what not, there will be some that are.

Thing with EA's logic is, yes 1% sounds small, but 1% is still hundreds of thousands of players. Yeah it's not the millions of BF3 players, but it's still a pretty large amount. I bet there's plenty of games that'd love to have that many players still around. As for the codes, there's a reason why that non-used games thing wouldn't work.

We put elephants in Mini's.

She had her cameraman disappeared.

Well...hrmm. How did you try paying? You should just be able to put your card details in and voila.

This is pretty much what has been going through my mind now 3-D is becoming a thing and OLEDs have been around. Obviously still early days but I could see this becoming a thing.

Donna helped break up the whole "but I wuv you doctor" we had with Rose n Martha. It was just being "mates", which the doctor kinda needed at that point. Blink is a Moffat episode, always a sign of a good episode.

A guy goes into a bar n orders 12 whiskeys. He then proceeds to down them all one after another. The barman asks "Whats the occasion?". The guy replies "Just had my first blow job". "Well congratulations! Here have another on the house". And the guy responds "Nah, if 12 won't get rid of the taste I doubt another will". What's the ultimate in trust?

I just kinda want a thread for those really bad jokes we know. I have quite a few but I only tend to remember a few at a time so I guess I'll add more as they float to the top of my head. What's the difference between a tyre and 365 condoms? An Englishman, Scotsman and Irishman walk into a bar. Barman says "is this some kind of joke?" What do you call a man with a wooden head? What do you call a man with two wooden heads? What do you call a man with four wooden heads? Did you hear about the man that accidentally drank varnish? It was a terrible end. But a beautiful finish. An recently married elderly couple are on their honeymoon about to consummate the marriage. The woman says "I must warn you, I have acute angina". The old man, hard of hearing, responds "a what?". "I HAVE ACUTE ANGINA" she repeats. "Oh well that's good cos your wrinkly tits were a right turn off". Three women are at a pre-natal clinic chatting away. The brunette says "well I'm going to have a boy because I was on top". "Well I'm going to have a girl because I was on bottom", says the ginger. Suddenly the blonde bursts into tears. After finally calming her down the two women asks what upset her, "I'm going to have a puppy!!" she exclaims.

That's the film that when I first saw a trailer for it I thought it was just some april fools joke/parody trailer thing trying to sell goodyear tyres or something.

Demo of the new engine. I'm not actually minding the graphics at all so if that's "not final graphics" the final game should be pretty damn good. (oh wait just gotten to the later part of the video with "agents")

I kinda like it not using the market because I've currently gotten a crappy phone. But that won't always be the case. So when sales like this come along I can't get them through the market cos my current phone is crappy. Kinda like how the guy at Grainger Games stopped me buying Lost Oddyssey cos I don't own a 360. Except, oh wait, he didn't. So while my phone can't run jack shit of the games from the last bundle at the moment (though my PC can) I can run them when I get a better phone. Though I'll be skipping on this mainly cos I'd only really want it for Swords n Soldiers on PC but not for $6.16. Canabalt is free on PC anyway and I already have Cogs. Not too fussed with the others. Zen Bound seems more like it wants a tablet than a phone anyway.

I thought ME2, apart from on the citadel itself, is carried out in the Terminus systems which are out of Citadel space and thus out of their jurisdiction and law.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-03-19-one-bioshock-infinite-level-contains-three-times-more-dialogue-than-all-of-bioshock-1 So there's lots of dialogue in it. Not too hard I guess considering Bioshock had all of like 4 people in the game with a couple of random folks thrown about. And one of those 4 people never says a peep.

http://www.humblebundle.com/ Android Bundle #2 Canabalt, Zen Bound, Cogs, Avadon. With Swords & Soldiers on the "pay the average" which is a pretty high $6.16 at the moment. All work on Mac, Windows n Linux too. Though as it notes many are first release for Android n Linux.

So first off: http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/news-room/2012/03/%E2%80%9Cpersonalized-immune%E2%80%9D-mouse-offers-new-tool-for-studying-autoimmune-diseases/ - full press release http://www.gizmag.com/personalized-immune-mouse-model/21860/ - Gizmag write up Customisable mice to match your immune system. Which I guess is a decent stop gap before we just make a clone at birth and use that to test shit on. It's main aim is for auto-immune issues so I've a feeling it'll be while before it's a more standard thing. Up second http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-17183890 Woman wants to have her hand amputated and replaced with a bionic limb. Her hand is fucked mind, but most of the time when you put on a prosthetic it's cos the limb was amputated already. Could be interesting if this becomes more common. As bionics improve we are going to head to a more DXHR-like world where folks will replace even healthy limbs with improved bionics.

Not exactly bought as given (though I guess it now counts as a trade as I gave him my Introversion key)

Question: How did you end up grounded on Earth for being part of Cerberus, despite the fact you quite freely hopped into the Citadel many times without being locked up? How did your ship and (non-Cerberus) human crew get locked up but the aliens were left to go free? How did you get locked up when they've got nothing bad on you? It works if you blew up the Batarian planet, but you at most destroyed Collector base and I'm sure the alliance has no issue with that. For most of the game you were also operating outside of alliance airspace. And you were also KIA, meaning I'm pretty sure you're off the hook as far as being tied to the job goes, so being court martialeld would be a bit hard. "Fleeing to the other side in the face of danger". Argh the beginning has as many fucking questions as the end.

http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/03/19/valve-on-bringing-the-pc-to-e3/ Valve discussing potential E3 plans. It's an odd one. On one hand as a PC gamer I'd like to have a sort of main event to look forward to. But on the other hand it does tend to mean you end up with like 60% of a years total output of announcements clumped up in the space of a week and it's pretty tiring and disorientating

So I guess this brings up question 2: Why then, if some random alliance team blew up the planet instead, are you grounded on Earth?
