    EDIT: Oh, "watersports" is slang. Okay.

    Yes, surprisingly, we weren't talking about female ejaculation and waterskiing.

    I'd expect anything from Australian law with regards to banning things.

    It's odd I'll give you that. But this basically means that everyone who has been linked to encyclopedia dramatica could be sentenced as such. Kind of dangerous.

    Honk, I can sympathize. They weren't unmarked, but I accidentally clicked on two spoilers of great importance.

    :(

    On the other hand - I'm pretty sure that I'll like the game now! I was unsure up until now because the non spoilerific story details they released made me feel like the story was bad. Right now I'm pretty sure that the story is good.

    I don't know about the plot, but the atmosphere is pretty good in places.


    Although, I'm really disappointed in the Citadel in ME2. It's even smaller than last time.


    But there are a lot of funny new scenes and things there.

    Lots of people complained about the citadel in the first game, for unexplainable reasons, so I guess that's why they toned it down.

    That's a shame. You barely even get to see any of the presidium, too.


    I was so excited when I first arrived and heard all of the references to the different wards, thinking that they would all be available for exploration.

    This is not an uncommon issue with bordelands.

    The solution usually involves unblocking many ports.

    Google can tell you more.

    I figure it's just that the idiots in charge went with GAMESPY to do the online connections and shit.

    Really? I thought the only thing we 'banned' was violent and extreme or some such. And even that was being challenged in the case where they charged the guy for writing Spice Girl fanfiction.

    From what I remember the definition of what is illegal is quite vague, and there's an argument that urination falls under it.

    Huh. Looked into this and he was apparently found not guilty. This seems to be something we're good at. Having really questionable laws on the books and then not enforcing them.

    The first part of the video is him explaining how important English is going to be for him as it's the working language of the EU parliament.

    Oh no, we literally tried everything that the Internet had to offer regarding this, including every port ever listed and going so far as to attempt a 3rd party connection thing-a-ma-bob. Nothing worked. Just gave up in the end.

    The citadel sucked because it was tiny

    everything was cramped into the same place

    I mean, all we got to be in of the wards was one building. A small building.

    and now they made it smaller

    Microsoft fessed up and is repairing my 360 free of charge, the bitches. Due back in 3 weeks - at which point there will be a Mass Effect 2 party in my pants.

    More games need to be like Machinarium. Alternatively, Machinarium needs to release longer expansions of itself.

    I suspect it helps that German and English are both Germanic languages i.e. possess a common ancestor language and similar Grammar rules. I always found German easier than French in school. French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Romanian are all Romance Languages, descended from Latin.

    You know, the agreement you have to check yes to for these repairs to be available. They basically clear Microsoft to throw the 360 from a plane into the ocean and then shoot your cousins to death. I'm only partially joking here.

    We use simplified Germanic grammar, but we've plundered the Romance volcabulary for a lot of stuff.
