Happy Chanukah, as the festival of lights begins at sundown today. On a far more somber note, today is also World AIDS day, dedicated to raising awareness of the disease. As noted in the Wikipedia: "Despite recent, improved access to antiretroviral treatment and care in many regions of the world, the AIDS epidemic claimed an estimated 2 million lives in 2007, of which about 270,000 were children.

One gameplay example they wrote of (I think it was storming a prison/police station and breaking out a prisoner), offered what sounded like near sandbox gameplay. No easy feat.

Flash sites are like pre-rendered CG cinematics: They look pretty but they don't tell you how the game will play.

"Example?"
"Example... uh... supernovas are like onions!"
"They stink?"
"Yes... No!"
"Oh, they make you cry?"
"No!"

These scientists should just bring their detecting equipment to my place after I've been eating onions.

This is like, the fourth time XM-25 or some variation has been unveiled (and those same two pictures are always in every article, too.) The underslung launcher on the OICW was very similar, I think they designed this by essentially taking the OICW and removing the rifle part.
