Yes, it's real! Stunning, amazing news, totally out of nowhere yesterday... but it's real, and some remnants of FASA are working on it.

Interview with key staff is up at IGN (read it!): http://au.pc.ign.com/articles/100/1002164p1.html

... Technically there's no number in the title, but there should be one, so I'm putting it in the thread title. I mean, it's a sequel. What's with this trend to drop numbers from sequels... but the AVGN covered that quite nicely recently in one of his videos, so I don't need to say more. :)

Anyway... the trailer, which is a blatant homage/ripoff of the classic MechWarrior 2 intro, in my opinion.

MechWarrior 5 trailer (full detail): http://ve3d.ign.com/videos/play/55194/PC...lash-Video

MechWarrior 2 intro for comparison: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-X3GD0UnBCk

... Yeah, amazingly awesome news. MechWarrior 2 is the best mech game ever, and MechWarrior 3 was great as well... but the mech sim genre and the related space sim genre have both been completely dead pretty much this whole decade in the West (and on the PC), so this is very awesome... hopefully they go sim! What we've seen so far looks very promising though for sure... and wow is that an awesome trailer. :)

Quote:Olympic security officials have rolled out plans to create so-called free speech areas during the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, similar to the protest zones used in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

Quote:The Integrated Security Unit will also monitor potential threats, using more than 900 closed-circuit cameras, which Mercer promised would be removed when the Olympics are over.

Quote:Vancouver police will also monitor the movements of the city's homeless, some of whom will have to be moved in the interest of safety, said deputy chief Steve Sweeney.

"We currently have a few homeless that are residing within very close proximity to some of the venues. And those people, we will assist them in relocating elsewhere," said Sweeney.

The film was good its the closest thing in style to a old school 1980's-90's crime flick, The only thing it lacked was subplots to give the supporting characters back stories, Everything was focused on the lead " John Dillinger ( Jonny Depp) " and his lover Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard) .

Christian Bale is Christian Bale, Except instead of doing the Bat-growl this time around he was doing the "I'm from Dixie" George Bush impersonation.

My last complaint, Is the lack of nudity I wanted to see Marion Cotillard snatch and boobies in that sexy bathroom scene.

I know that will make Fittisize = :(

I think it's safe to say that my five-year long love affair with Firefox has come to an end.

I love everything about it so far. It loads pages insanely fast, which is great. But, right now, I have a computer that is limited in memory (256MB), and while I liked Firefox, it was a furious memory hog and slowed my computer down to zero if I loaded anything more strenuous than a youtube video. Even when running a single open tab on a normal website, it would regularly consume anywhere from 80 to 150 megs of RAM and sometimes in excess of 300MB of paging file, which obviously is going to deep-six a computer like mine.

My current Google Chrome browser has two tabs open, the other running a YouTube video of Ray Kurzweil, and it's consuming a total of 60MB of paging file. It isn't slowing me down one iota. It's sleek, it's functional, it looks really nice and performs like a champ.

See you later, Firefox.

'Informercial King' Billy Mays Found Dead in Home

... But it was just in that box? I must have put that stuff there back in like 2002 and completely forgot about it, unless I actually had found it again at some point and put the folder there (or back there?) but not remembered it at all afterwards... really though, I think this was the first time I'd seen this stuff in years and years. Amazing, I thought it was gone.

(The only way this could ahve been better is if my five or six missing papersleeve PC CD games I lost around that same time had been in the same box... but sadly no, I wasn't quite that lucky. Oh well...)

I doubt anyone cares, but I found my folder full of codewheels and code sheets! Years ago I had completely given up on playing non-cracked versions of these games again, so seeing them all again is just amazing...

I'm going to list it all just because I want to. :)

-Hardball III Codewheel
-Summer Challenge Codewheel
-Gear Works manual (contains the codes required to get past copy protection)
-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles code sheet (bah, that game is so evil...)
-Zool 2 codewheel (I was wanting to try this game again, now I can!)
-SimCity codesheet
-Commander Keen: Aliens Ate My Babysitter manual (copy protection is that it shows you an image of an enemy and you name the enemy; manual contains enemy list. You can find this information online, but this manual is obviously the easiest way to get it... makes playing the game easier. :))
-Lemmings (DOS ver.) manual (here both for required codes needed to install and for the password page in the back that I was filling out as I reached the levels. Evidently I got to level 28.)
-Lemmings Paintball manual (for the password list I was making only, not any required codes)

The rest of the stuff is on paper.

-Norse By Norsewest password list page (up to level 7... the keyboard-only controls really annoyed me, I wanted to use pad...)
-Rebel Assault 2 passwords (for all levels)
-Lemmings Paintball passwords (the section in the book wasn't enough to fit all the ones I got to, so I started a new sheet)
-Starfire passwords for levels 2 and 4
-A second Norse By Norsewest password sheet, also going to level 7
-Dschump password sheet, passwords for levels 0 and 1 only
-Sonic & Knuckles Collection password for the infinite secret game mode, just one password though
-sheet with a few Bumpy (levels 2 and 3) and Dschump passwords (again levels 0 and 1)
-Worms 2 passwords, up to level 13
-Failed attempt at mapping a Planescape Torment Modron Cube dungeon
-Quest for Glory I overworld map of my dad's, done back when we first played the game in the early/mid '90s
-Quest for Glory I notes page of mine
-Castle Adventure map of mine(with all but the basement complete...)
-Castle Adventure map of my dad's, complete floors 1 and 2 of the castle
-Commander Keen 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 overworld maps, plus partial Keen Dreams map, on a total of 5 pages
-Keen Standard Galactic Alphabet conversion chart page
-List of some common SGA phrases from Keens 1, 2, and 4 and what they mean
-A couple pages of Dr. Brain notes
-Heroes of Might & Magic 2 cheatcodes page (partially printed, part written)
-Starcraft cheatcodes page
-Kirby Pinball cheatcodes page, with Dschump again (with a level 2 password!)
-Rebel Assault 1 cheatcode page (important, given how hard that game was!)
-Rebel Assault II cheatcodes - four printed pages (not needed to beat the game, but because there's some amusing stuff you can do with them... :))
-TIE Fighter Keyboard Commands (vital for the game! I needed to learn a lot of commands for this game, so having them written down really helped...) There are also some passwords on this page for something or other, but I'm not sure what exactly... levels 4 through 8 or something. :)

I heard they were shipping Arab Hezbollah fighters to beat down on protesters.

Eran probably is one case were a violent revolution is necessary, Allot of this apparently is not just related to the election but corruption of the Ayatollah who has been giving each of sons 100,000,000 $ , The guy has been hogging off public funds living in extravagance almost to the same degree as the former royal family.
