Just like item farming, gold farming is the process of going into high-level areas and repeatedly killing the same monsters to get the best items and/or most gold, then selling it for actual cash. Wiki's got a better description than me.

Gold farming is more WoW, which I don't play, but item farming is everywhere, even Guild Wars... Which I do play. Personally, I'm not a fan of the concept. It tends to upset game economies.

Well, if you look at Crytek's new engine revision (there was a small video from E3 capturing it) they seem to be developing another Far Cry, at least judging by the engine enhancements. In fact, they used Far Cry to show off the new stuff.
The really interesting one: Your character colliding with all - all - vegetation. As a character creeped through the bush to snipe someone on a beach, you could see his model pushing the ferns out of his way in 3rd person.

1) Happy birthday!
2) You're right. It will never bring down the price of games. So long as people willingly accept the same price of titles with in-game ads they'll push the envelope as far as they can with it. I personally will begin pushing back if the ads ever so much as interrupt the gameplay experience. (Need For Speed: Most Wanted's Burger King billboard ads that fly by as I do 220 in a Porsche don't make me worry so much.)

I have high hopes that Silent Hill will actually make a worthy game-to-film conversion. It's too bad they didn't do a straight plot/character copy of Silent Hill 2 for those that have played the game, but I can see how that wouldn't exactly be a comfortable experience for an audience...
I think we're now at "the river", which is the step everyone seems to forget in Hold 'em.
I heartily (and tongue-in-cheek...ily) raise one 'Crusader: No Return'.

I just want the physics/feel of Porsche Unleashed and more cop-chasing options than Hot Pursuit. Dog HP all you want, but no NFS games has since let you play *as* the cops in single or multiplayer. Those were some fun times on LAN with 3 or 4 guys as racers and with 1 as the cop trying to knock them all out... or driving the wrong way on the looped tracks and trying to catch them all head-on.
Did I mention it was realistic?

I've dated women that somewhat resemble most of the FragDolls... But not the corporate-sponsored beaut in the middle.

The only real question left is this: Will the Postal movie be worse than Manos: Hands of Fate?
I'm surprised no one's mentioned Event Horizon. Not necessarily a great film, but that was kinda-sorta what I was hoping the Doom movie would be (at least in terms of its visual representation).

Captain, it's now greytop@comcast.net according to his domain registration. It was previously jackpeace@comcast.net when I was in the business of sending him a series of ludicrous, half-drunk dissertations but I think we've crushed that account.
Creston, there was actually another poorly-coded setup program back in the day that was just as bad as Myth 2: Sierra Goddamn Utilities. I think I was one of the unlucky few to have provoked it.
I am usually doing lots of things at once, with lots of hard drive thrashing, so I didn't notice it was screwed until half my hard drive was gone. Sometimes I don't know why I even bother using uninstallers.

And congrats to Neil Manke for finally getting a shot at a commercial product. I still have fond memories of his earlier projects and can't believe how long ago HL1 was; I think he's been around longer than some of us, even.
I'd personally like to see them do weekly roster updates so I can play as Mike Tice through the various stages of unemployment, homelessness and ticket-scalping (coming full circle, as in any good story).
For a more serious comment, now that they have a pre-bought market dominance it looks like they're stripping all the "extra" features of Madden out into their own full titles. I hesitate in saying full-fledged, but full price-tagged is probably accurate.

It's too bad he didn't team up with Quantic Dream. They seem like a good fit.
