| I wish it would have been as good as Half-Life.
I know its not exactly a clone but you can see the influence Valve had on id in this game, from the settings (a Lab) the fact that workers there become zombie like monsters, the wall machine that heals you and refills your armor, the physics gun from the expansion pack.
may be the word "hl clone" was wrong, I just meant that they drew allot of inspiration from HL1 and had little success in recapturing the experience.
and i must agree on the second part you've said, they really are just trying to sell engins... Flag this | Edit this post |

| i really think that id lost their tauch right after Quake 2.
Quake 3 was fun but not as good as Quake 2 and Doom 3 was trying to be a Half Life clone. you can clearly see that the development of D3 started right about the time HL was huge. Flag this | Edit this post |

| I've got a really old rig (2000+ XP, X800 pro 256MB with 1 GB memory. all that wonder of power sits on a socket A mother board. talk about raw power! cant even overclock it because its the hottest rig around) so I guess I'm going to get a whole new system.
I'm thinking about getting a DX10 card with a E6600 core 2 in January or so (or what ever is a good value CPU in that time).
I really don't know, ill just try to stick with the 1500$ budget I've set my self to.
any one got an idea when is the best time to buy a whole new system in the next six months or so? (lets say until march) Flag this | Edit this post |

| hi man, your prices are way off.
a 7900GT is like 280$, not 389$ and the E6400 is about 240$ and not 355$. look stuff up in www.pricegrabber.com or www.pricewatch.com.
unless you live outside of the US and prices are high in you country... Flag this | Edit this post |

| I tried halo for the PC.
I don't know what are the differences between the two versions but I guess its not level design.
I mean, that game is just that Z shaped corridor again and again. and don't even get me started on the flood level that was the same area again and again VS insane running serious sam style monsters.
the plot is totally flat too.
I heard that they made a better plot for the second one, ill try it some time. Flag this | Edit this post |

| I love free radical.
time splitters games are the closest thing we have to GoldenEye.
I need a 360, I have to try PDZ (won't mind Halo3, gears of war, RE5 and GTA4 either :)) Flag this | Edit this post |

| first of all there are no camps in Israel (well, except summer camps that is) so I don't know where you get your information (if you are talking about refugee camps, its just a name for Palestinian villages).
I don't think you realize that the villages them self are the war zone. nothing happen out side of them. the choice of making the villages the major fighting grounds was made by Hezbollah.
again, I don't think that the civilian deaths should have happen in ether side. imp not for it. I'm just not in ease when you put the entire blame on Israel although Hezbollah should be held just a guilty in the Lebanonies deaths.
and cool DK, i'm not talking about the Arabs tribes that lived 200 years ago, I talked about the modern Muslim countries led by religious fanatics like Iran.
and FYI:
- glass was invented by mother nature, not the Arabs. it was used by the cave man first and if you were talking about the Egyptian craftsman that used glass, well, they weren't Arab or Muslims and had nothing to do with them.
- the telescope was invented by Hans Lippershey from Holland
- The Marine Compass was invented in china by Si Nan
- the gunpowder was invented in china, the Arabs where the first to think to use it as a weapon.
- soap was invented in Babylon, a dead civilization, not the Arabs.
- the pendulum was invented by Christian Huygens who is Dutch.
- the clock was invented by the Sumerian, a dead civilization. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | well, I can't argue with that. its just a different point of view. I guess any commander will rather see his troops alive and call for an air strike on a village that theoretically should have been empty before any ground troops enter regardless of his nationality. Flag this | Edit this post |

| nope, they are not bad at aiming.
first of all, there where 1000 deaths in Lebanon since the war started. the problem is that Hezbollah soldiers are civilians too, after all they are an underground militia.
500+ Hezbollah terrorists died in the fighting, that means that there are only 400+ civilians dead (not that I'm disrespecting this number).
200+ Israelis died in this war, that means that your clime about 2 kidnapped soldiers VS 1000 civilians is just plan wrong.
most of the civilians deaths happened in Hezbollah infested villages and that includes bunkers built by Hezbollah under privet homes.
there is nothing you could do, Israel has no brawl with Lebanon, just with Hezbollah (that means Iran).
if it was up to them, they wouldn't have killed 1 innocent civilian. unfortunately, just like in every other war that ever happened, civilians get killed (especially when they are used and human shields). Flag this | Edit this post |

| well, imagine the US army (or any other army) fighting that war.
for starters I doubt that they would give any warnings about soon to be bombings. in Iraq and Afghanistan the US bombed schools, hospitals and homes killing thousands. that same goes for Russia in Chechnya, Brittan over Berlin and any other country waging a war.
I'm sure the Israeli army would have loved to see the Hezbollah soldiers fight in the open spaces in Lebanon but they chose to build bunkers (as Hezbollah soldier showed last night in a report by Al Jazira) inside and beneath civilian homes, launch rockets from the middle of villages and hide their soldiers in civil population (that got warnings to leave the area). unfortunately that is their fight tactics, after all if it wasn't a guerrilla war in a heavy populated area how would the Hezbollah would have survived against the Israeli tech army?
Israel don't bomb houses just for the sake of pure fun, every bomb has its target that relates to Hezbollah or arms trucks.
100+ Israeli soldiers died in Lebanon and if the IDF wouldn't have "soften" the grounds before the soldiers have infiltrated, they would have had four times more dead.
I don't know why you don't care about those young men who risk their lives to protect you in your country's army (I have no idea where you are from), but if my army goes into a village full of terrorists, I would rather see the village bombed first so the soldiers wont be killed. they even played it nice and gave the villagers a 24 hour warning.
and just like you said, they could have left their homes because they did get a warning but they chose to stay (or forced by Hezbollah soldiers as human shields as some testified), what can I say? if I saw rockets launching from my streets and armed terrorists running near my home while fliers that the opposing force have sent saying that the area is going to be bombed because all of the terrorist activity in the village, I would have fled.
I doubt that ill think about my property like my TV or PC over my children's life. Flag this | Edit this post |

| well, why is France hated so much in all of the world?
and Israel is not hated by the world, may be by you but no by the world.
as always, Israel is supported by advanced western countries like the US, the UK, Japan etc.
if you hate Israel so much just don't use Israeli products. don't buy a PS3 because it has a CELL processor developed in IBM Haifa - Israel, don't buy an Intel core 2 processor because it was developed in Intel Haifa - Israel, uninstall all your instant message software like messenger and ICQ, don't use USB disk-on-a key sticks, don't watch movies because 90% of them are made by Israel supporting Jewish people (like matrix, every Spielberg film, every Marvel movie) etc.
I for example am boycotting all the Arab inventions like... emm... tents and... emmm... rocks.....
and by the way, most Arab countries like Egypt, Jordan, Katar, Libya and Saudi Arabia supported Israel in this conflict. (I wonder why modern countries like most of Europe, the Arab countries that I just mentioned and the US support Israel while countries like Venezuela and Iran support the terrorist organizations...)
actually, most Sunni and Christian lebanonies citizens supported Israel in this conflict including the powerful Hariry family, Israel was trying to root out a terrorist organization from Lebanon that the UN already called for it to be disarmed 6 years ago. Flag this | Edit this post |

| I don't think that post show a side taking, I'm sure if the post would say that Mel Gibson gave 400 Xbox for Lebanonies kids no one would have said anything.
but I do agree that this post should have been in the site seeing coulomb rather then here. Flag this | Edit this post |

| well, I really don't mind if Iran uses a nuke reactor or oil based power plants.
my problem with Iran begins when they kick out the nuke inspectors, started to enrich the uranium to a nuke weapon level and in the same time there leader Ahmamijad is making a new speech every week about how Israel and the US should be erased from the map, how the Jewish people control the world media/banks and how the holocaust never happened.
well, that kind of crazy "Hitler" talk from a fundamental Muslim with the combination of nuke power and missiles that can reach Israel, Europe and the US really scares me (and if you live out side an Arab country it should scare you too).
and by the way, there is enough oil in the world right now to last at least 40 years so I guess there is no rush for building nuke power plants.
about their pain because of the taken territory by Israel. well, first of all Israel withdrew from the Gaza strip last year and PM olmert was elected on the promise of withdrawing from the west bank too in less then a year from now.
isn't it ironic that the plan just sank because of the Hezbollah attack in the northern border?
the majority of Israelis supported the withdrew from the west bank but now, when the withdrew from Lebanon showed that Israel is still being attacked even when they are not in Lebanon's territory, almost no one supports the withdrew.
in the Gaza strip the Palestinians live free of any Israeli control, no civil or army is present there but as you saw, Gaza hasn't became a peaceful happy Disney land. every day tens of KASAM rockets are fired into Israel and suicide bombers infiltrate from the Gaza strip although they live there freely.
oh, and by the way. Iran doesn't really care about seeing their "brothers" in Palestine suffer because Iran is not an Arab country, they are Persians. thus, they are not their "brothers", just an excuse to attack Israel when they feel like it (I guess that Ahmanijad is the worst prince of Persia ever! I rather see him back flip on walls while trying to save the princess then trying to nuke Israel, the US and Europe). Flag this | Edit this post |

| and I'm sure that 9/11 was because of Israel right? and the Bombay bombings? and the attack on the US embassy in Beirut? and the attacks on London? and the 10 airplanes they where trying to destroy last week?
all of them because Israel is on Palestinian land?
or may be because there are some religious fanatics who want the west annihilated?
I hear every one in the west judging Israel all of the time but they all forget that Israel represent the front line of the war going on between the west and Muslims.
the US, and Europe are at war and Israel is the only one who is doing something about it.
after all, how can you take the Arab voices seriously when a terrorist organization (as the UN call them) as the Hezbollah keeps on being active even when its "goals" where achieved, they drove Israel off of Lebanon 6 years ago, there was no Israeli on Lebanon's soil since the year 2000. but for some reason they still use their blunt force against Israel just to cover Iran's a$$ so their nuke program wont be discussed in G8.
what does that mean? every time an Arab country (and I'm not talking about the friendly ones like Jordan or Egypt) has a problem they will activate their puppets to terrorize the world?
right now Iran said they are working on the SHIHAB 4 missile.
the SHIHAB 3 fly far enough to reach Israel, Iran's hated arch rival (who never provoked Iran and even had a friendly relationship until the Muslim fanatics took over), so why do they need the SHIHAB 4 missile that can reach Europe and the US and their nuke program?
every one take the middle east too light headedly, countries like Iran and Syria aren't just Israel problem, they are the whole world's problem.
just remember that before 9/11 no one even thought that terrorism can reach the US... Flag this | Edit this post |

| » check your facts first man
the 2 soldiers weren't special forces. just two reserve soldiers on a border patrol ON THE ISRAELI SIDE.
the Hezbollah soldiers infiltrated the Israeli border and kidnapped the 2 soldiers and killed 5 others when they fired an anti-tank missile at a hummer.
no Israeli soldier has set foot in Lebanon since may 2000.
Israel haven't planed any attack, all the voices in Israel are talking about how the Israeli command has neglected the northern front and let Hezbollah build outposts and bunkers. even an investigation comity is being formed right now to investigate the improperness of Israel for a brawl in Lebanon.
