Actually, a great adventure game, but failed on the market cause it was too expensive

here I go...Im going to say something pretty un-liberal here..

good job. Im glad they did it.

Getting Saddam taken care of was one of the objectives in this mission, and important in helping Iraq get on its feet, if only for morale purposes.
That being said, I have 2 more questions

1. what are they going to do with him?

2. Are we ever going to find whats even more important then saddam, the WMD or Bin Ladin?

may I suggest that another catagory be added for puzzles? I did a quick mental review of PDA and LV, and neither had great graphics or sound...and thats half of the review I suppose

or maybe the last catagory, over enjoyment, would make up for it. i dunno

I personally think subdivisions are a rather bad idea.   One of the most distinguishing features of AGS games is that they often excel in one particular area without pretending to be great in others.  Games shouldn't be published for this, it's just how AGS games are.   Some games gain popularity because of great stories or dialogue, some for innovative graphical techniques, some for their puzzles, etc.  Some do all of them well, but we shouldn't set that as the standard with AGS.

exactly, which is why we WANT such a system. This way, when a user is say, looking for a game with a great story, he can find the AGS games that excell in that area .Its allows games to create niches.

Teh current rating system I feel does not do enough justice. If possible, I think that instead of having a flat 1/10 scale (where people basically just rate things 1 or 10) to a more detailed scale, (graphics, humor, gameplay, music). This would help people who value different things find games.


so basically, what Mills said

I live right around the corner from Junc, and man, let me tell you, midwesten winters, Central and Northern Ohio and Iowa more so, suck. We dont get much sun here during the summer, but during the winter? Gray. Gray. Gray. and COLD. It actually doesnt snow that much, (Its snowing a tiny bit right now), but its always dark and cold and slushy and all-around nasty.

I miss New Mexico :(

What really concerns me here is how quickly the popular image of the muslims have changed in American. 30 years ago, nobody would have a problem. But because of the tragic actions of some radicals, they are persicuted by many in America.

This got me thinking

What if, one day, some wacko mormon or some wacko Brazilian-American blows up a building? starting sniping people? I'm fucked!

A backlash like this can hit any minority group.

My early early game history is a bit of a mush. I remember playing Mario Brothers 2 at my uncles house on the NES, and playing Animal Quest (this really crappy maze game) on our 386dx. that was my first computer.
My first adventure game was Robin Hood, Conquests of the longbow, which I think I first played when I was 6. or rather, I watched my dad and his friend play it. I didnt actually finish it myself until I was 8.
I really grew to love adventure games, (and games in general) when I was about 8 or 9. I used to go to my buddy Phil's house everyday after schools. Phil had prince of persia, KQ's 4-7, and *gasp* an SNES. I remember spending many a summer day trying to beat KQ5...ah.
I've been a gamer ever since.

I was born and raised in Ohio. That makes me an Ohioian, Mid-westerner, and an American. My parents are from Brasil. We keep many of those traditions, and sometimes speak spanish and portugese at home. So I sometimes refer to myself as Brasilian as well. Any of these titles I suppose is approprite though.

But first, and most imporantly, I am a human

my old school used to have school uniforms

we actually went on strike over it once...they school administration had been dishonest with us one too many times, and that was the last straw

There are no protections for striking students sadly...most of us were suspended

then 60% of the student body left the school, including me, (uniforms again, werent the only reason, but a big part of it), and the school has since rethought its policy.

I have no actual advice for you though. sorry. continue to complain, get some petitions going, and maybe the school will meet you halfway, (I dunno, causal fridays or something?)
