This is a failure because I'm at work right now and this blocks any access to most other sites.

Here is where a youtube of the chitty chitty bang bang song would go.

Someone feel free to give me a link that I can add to this OP.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO WIN.

    Isn't their a law saying basically if you're married in another state, your state has to recognize it. Didn't the wording of prop 2 go against that law?

    No, because they speak to entirely different motives.

    For them to have consciously left the guns out of the game, it would be about creating a game with that in mind. Yeah.

    But including the guns, consciously, but half-assing it, speaks differently of their motives and actions. They provide the choice, but gimp it.

    It's not that guns are ineffective. It's not that they're gimped. It's that they opinion is that they play badly. There's a major difference.

    Complaining about bad parkour in Fallout 3 is silly. There is no parkour. It wasn't a background initiative. It's not in at all.

    If they did implement it, and advertised it, and then it sucked? It was buggy as hell. You constantly clipped through the walls. Buggy ledges, falling through worlds, overall bad implementation.

    Actually: Better example.

    The gunplay in Fallout 3 is bad

    The movement is bad.

    The gunplay is bad partially because VATS is designed to be used often, not simply as a last resort. And frankly, it's not a shooter, it's an open-ended RPG. The enemies are stupid, and you're not going to run into a lot of situations where a crack shot is necessary.

    The movement is bad because well, fuck it, you're just supposed to be able to walk. I'd like to be able to hop up ledges. I'd like to be able to climb or run faster than 2 miles a day, but hey it was not anywhere near the central focus of the gameplay.

    So. I am just saying that when a person spends shorter amounts of time on the less important aspects of a project I do not take offense.

    I like you, JK, but I think you'd have to be so fucking stupid to think you were going to get good gunplay out of Mirror's Edge. I mean I didn't even know guns were in the game at all until I played the demo. And then 80% of the demo is basically constructed around telling you "hey, you should run" and "sticking around to shoot people is fucking dumb you fucking dumb dumbfuck."

    So really, I think any complaints about Mirror's Edge's gameplay are completely baseless. If you were required to duke it out with 120 guards at the end of the game with guns or something, that's one thing. But I'm assuming that's not the case here. So, being a mere "option" without forcing you to putz around with the gunplay, there is no valid complaint.
