No soldiers. My first time playing anything other than soldier. One dude quit at the beginning of the game. Amazingly enough, we still won.

So is that to say that you believe that even once in hell one can repent, and thus in that sense they hold the key to their own prison?

I can't claim to know what kind of "person" God might be, if one exists, and I don't see that there's any reason He wouldn't be a dick. What I do know, though, is that such a god is not one worth worshiping.

Yeah, in the same way that unlocking the same gun again gives it an upgrade, unlocking the same race/class combo again unlocks some more visual customization options and gives it an XP boost.

Adepts can get mad points with singularity+warp. That biotic explosion is brutal.

I've seen a couple adepts in the pub groups I've joined.

I'm with dean, I'd like them to have specific purchases in addition to the random box (although I'm fine with consumables only being in the random box). I mean, they could make it so you can buy a pack for 20k credits with a chance of unlocking a new race/class combo, or you could just straight up pay 50k or 75k to unlock it directly. Hell, they could even make it so you can't specifically buy race/class combos till certain levels, but you could unlock them from the random box at any time. I just don't want relying on a random box to be my ONLY way to unlock the race/class I want to play. It's like the Steam Christmas sale: it seems like a cool idea at first, but then it gets frustrating because you only ever unlock shit you don't want.

lol, I guess I wasn't explaining it very well, because that's what I meant at first: it's morally ambiguous to pirate a replacement, not to crack an owned disc.

I meant I don't care about ME1's DLC. That DLC wasn't that great. Pinnacle Station specifically was super lame.

Yeah, it's getting pretty freaking ridiculous.

Oh, I am too, but I'd rather just have to download a crack for it. I said it was grey, not wrong. *Edit* - I would actually buy ME1 and 2 on PC again if they would release a pack that comes with the DLC (or at least the ME2 DLC, don't really care about ME1). I just don't want to buy the games for $5 each and then have to spend another $15-20 on DLC. The difference is in this case you'd still own a physical copy, which in my book IS the game. With a digital copy, then you technically no longer have anything. ? That sounds like you're arguing for my point.

I also have 2 Super MNC invites and a Tribes Ascend code.

I'm fine with the random packs for consumables like medigel or ammo packs, but I do not like them one bit for getting new weapons and characters. Just tell me how much the specific gun I want costs, and let me buy that specific gun when I have enough. *Edit* - @Vargras: yeah, I was level 12 and he was level 2. It shouldn't be an issue though, cause they should have done two things: 1) scale the difficulty to how many players there are, and 2) made it so you can join public games as a party.

Zombies should not be hot, it weirds me out.

Not to mention that, at least in my opinion, wind farms *enhance* views. They're so peaceful and serene.

Yeah, I was just trying to play with one of my friends, and we couldn't figure out how to join a public game together, and we couldn't ever get past level 7 with just the two of us.

It would mean I wouldn't be tempted to go upvoting and downvoting posts just to restore karmic balance. *Edit* - Also, I like the ability to "unlike" things, because I'm retarded and occasionally up or down vote something I didn't mean to.

Obviously what he wrote was just a summary of researcher's conclusions, and not an exhaustive dissertation on the subject.

I think he meant "would you not be able to command [the one-mission squad members] with Kinect?" Actually, an easy way to test is for someone with Kinect to try ordering Anderson around in the first level of the demo.

It's not always "believe it causes autism." Sometimes it's "don't want to spend the money." Yes, but the issue in the article and that we were talking about was parents not wanting vaccines because they think they cause autism and the doctors "firing" them because of it.

Yeah, just last week my wife and I got a bunch of coupons from Dillons (where we do most of our grocery shopping) for products that we purchase a lot.

It seems disingenuous to me to say that "won't get a vaccine because they believe it causes autism" is going to lead to "won't change a bandage cause it's too much work". While misguided, the vaccine thing is at least arising out of a concern for their children's well-being. @Dean: yeah, it's pretty well established that states have the legal authority to compel vaccination, the questions is over whether states should exercise that authority (I think they should).

I don't fully trust DD services not to just have my "purchases" vanish into the ether, so I prefer to buy a physical disc. Even if it's a Steamworks game, it's both easier and less morally grey to crack my purchased disc copy than to pirate the whole thing in the event that that happens. I will only buy DD in 2 situations: 1) it's enough cheaper than retail to overcome my preference (usually has to be about 25% cheaper, but it depends on how expensive it is to start with) or 2) it's just outright cheap enough that I don't care (that's about the $10 range). *Edit* - Also, even if it's not coming out in retail until March, I'd still expect preorder options to be up, at least on Amazon and Gamestop.

Good point.
