Spartan

Congrats! Well deserved! [e digicons]:andrew:[/e]

Additionally, They are using a special developed "disk check" software [Already said not made by Sony] for the game. WTF? Why are they using third party disk check software in the first place? Simple disk was built in titles before. Something does not seem right to be honest.

[quote who="Scorpiana" reply="14" id="2322603"] I think EA is smart enough to know that keeping them free to do their thing brings even more money.. Well, it IS EA, I would have thought they'd be smart enough to keep Westwood, Origin, Bullfrog, ... free to do their thing...[/quote] No doubt hence my concern. EA has a 100% track record of a scorched earth policy with its takeovers.

I can't help but feel like we're 'getting it wrong'. Those participating in game forums at all, I'm told, account for a small fraction of a given game's overall player base. Those that express strong interest in participating in Q&A and pre-release testing are, I'm told, an

[quote who="kona0197" reply="21" id="2322067"] Put it this way, I spent more on it than most people spend on a small car. FAIL![/quote] Fail what? You talking to a guy that put about $40k into a hog and a $50K sound system into a car back in the day.

I love BW but hate the EA overlord! I have been waiting for this title for some time nonetheless.

[quote who="CaptainAanderson" reply="10" id="2321607"]Spartan, While that case does look cool, it appears to have only one fan. Unless there are more on top? I couldn't find this information at the site (I admit I was tired at the time and didn't look very hard) Quoting CaptainAanderson, reply 4 I have found a pretty cheap Antec 1200, so i think i am going to get that. This did not work out (ebay) so i am once again on the hunt for a case. I will go

For what it is worth and without getting into details, in short, I'm all for the process taking as long as is necessary to make this game the best strategy game ever to hit the market. I would like to see it used as the definitive standard for all other such games.

I'll update the thread this weekend some time guys. Sorry been really, really busy.

It is a awesome game! It is considered a classic already. I also HIGHLY suggest you check out the dev forums for mods.

To me there is nothing better than watching a killer global catastrophe movie in all its raging glory, except maybe getting sublimely busy with a couple awesome ladies on a cold stormy night in the dead of winter.

I feel sorry for you brother but take heart in the fact that we all make mistakes. [e digicons]:')[/e]

[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="4" id="2317388"]I wonder how many years passed between the last time psychoak *read* Tolkien and the time when he came to appreciate the value of a well-rounded liberal arts education. Anyone with half a brain and a scrap of attitude can come up with crits of Tolkien, many of which are plausible, e.g. he had no real ability to conceive of female characters other than archetype beings like Galadriel or 'tomboys' like Éowyn. On the other hand, th
