  1. Depends how concerned you are about blue-on-blue and collateral damage. The tech works fine, it's just ROE that can hamstring it.
  2. Oleg's team made the base engine of Il-2 which was used for BoP/WoP, but they didn't make them, it was another team. WoP is indeed the PC version of BoP. No idea why they changed the name...
  3. Actually, I'm not at all certain that drugs aren't involved here. Lots of strong, illegal ones. Some of the statements make "bipolar" look like an understatement. Hmmm. Come to think of it, maybe it's a she, not a he? After all, saying things like "apologize!" followed by "screw you!!" when you ask "for what?" seems like uber-PMS to me.
  4. I loved racing the lightcycles in the game.
  5. No, no, they have buddy refueling pods now. Just cut the end off the drogue and watch the pyro!!
  6. The guy is so pathetic you wonder how he can even access the internet. I wonder if he uses AOL?
  7. In Automan it was called Cursor, in Tron it was just a Bit. The problem with Automan was the character itself was just too arrogant and full of himself. The car making perfect right angle turns was funny, though.
  8. Do you enjoy movies about gladiators?
  9. Those really old C-5A's wouldn't have been cost-effective to upgrade under pretty much any circumstances.
  10. You mean they're the equivalent to the helo competition we recently canned for replacement Marine One helos? The comm fits on those always cost multiple arms and legs.
  11. I only fly against AI, I despise H2H, so that could make a difference because indeed they seem to have laser sights and homing bullets.
  12. Looks great, although I think the black around the cockpit looks a little TOO black if you get what I mean. In other words, the tires are made of black rubber and they're not that black! Other than that, it's excellent.
  13. Support packages are always overpriced because, like HP and its printer cartridges, that's where they make their profit.
  14. It's like reading a Mad Lib done by the criminally insane...

    Uh....
  16. While I would love to see him again, I don't think David Warner's character would make sense being around. Too bad, really.
  17. That's Gamera, which is what we named our pet turtle. I loved watching the Gamera films on MST3K back in the 90s.
  18. I wouldn't normally call 12 helos a "significant order" like AW did, but then again I wouldn't believe it would cost €560m, either. That's more like what I would expect a dozen fighters to cost.
  19. Now that is good satire.
  20. Well in theory the ones Italy are getting are very close in a lot of ways.
  21. Seeing as Flaming Cliffs 2.0, which will interface with Black Shark, is due out soon (read "by summer") you may just want to hold out for it.
  22. In otherwords, yes.

    Burn Notice

    FYI, McGruber is coming to theaters soon.
  25. Frankly, EVERY film has a plot you've heard before, unless you just came out of the jungle and are seeing films for the first time. Pick any film and you can easily find another film with the same plot if you boil down the details to the base. I think someone once pointed out there are basically around 2 dozen different plots out there, and every film made can be summed up as one of them. So harping on a film because the plot is familiar is actually worse than what you accuse the film itself of doing. It's like pulling someone over doing 10 mph over the speed limit because, well, they're speeding, when everyone around them was doing 15 mph over the limit. Don't like the characters, fine. Dislike the acting, the visual design, the music, whatever, that's fine, but saying "it's bad because the plot has been done before" is just a cop out.
