Also, I think Jesus X sounds cool.
Great Zombie Jesus! It sounds almost sounds like "Jason X"  ;D
In all seriousness, whatever floats your boat.

The X is the first initial in Christ in Greek.  Christs Mass X Mass christmas , xmas. Any christian who complains should bone up on their dead lingos

My dad felt the way some sillies do about X-mas and such. Personally, I think its just silly.

Opened up the "doll" site  mentioned and...
EEEK! They Have No Soul, THEY HAVE NO SOUL!!!
In the latest pic, she looks very vulnerable and young. at least her face does. She reminds me how I picture Lucy from 'the lion the witch and the wardrobe' except the body, the mature body seems at odds with the almost pre teen face. as well the bare legs look weird. in fact they look fine as cloth, like on the new character but they the legs look weird when just coloured in as flesh, its like when you play 'the sims', and make the legs skin textured, but the body base is for pants. I like the new characters face, much more self assured. you can tell its a different character though you recycled the base.

Sam and max and DOTT had both cartoony shape AND cartoony animation. But they where pushing it as far as lo-res could really go.

Ooh, I like BT's songs, he's one of greatest

But being so famous as he is, there could be ransom demand soon.
Anyway,  :(

there probably won't BE a ransom demand if it is his estranged wife. Parental abduction doesn't usually work like normal kidnapping. The parent probably thinks they are doing the right thing, after all its HER daughter, right. Normal kidnapping is extortion basically. Parental kidnapping is more revenge and delusionary thinking.

I believe that time ISN'T infinite, that time has a grain, a quanta. otherwise, how would it move? If time could be sliced infinitely, how do those infinitely small parts, or zeros, add up to the movement we see? Zero times any number you care to name is still zero. I wonder if each quantum moment is in fact a separate universe without time, like frames in a 2d cartoon.

heres another common hollywood 'power" that is always got wrong. What if you could walk through stuff? What's to stop you from falling through the floor? As well, would you be able to breath? Unless yoo could extend your power to your clothes, and carry along a scuba system.

I hope this isn't considered rude, but it might also be helpful if we had a picture of the mans wife. If they are  in a car, we are more likely to recognize her then some little munchkin sitting beside her, barely visable.
I will pray, and I'll talk to family members.

I have played all of them, and I would have to go with MI2. I really liked the graphics in CMI, but they didn't require quite the same imagination. I mean, if graphics are the only thing, whats the fun of IF, ya know?
#153
Well I think the main reason is... we are lazy . Most of the time we are one man (or woman) teams. Making hi res art that animates remotely smoothly is a much more time consuming. There is probably more then a little nostalgia thrown in as well. Yes CMI is vuunder bar, but it was one of the last traditional 2d adventure games. Most of us have more happy memories with older games. Now I love CMI, its wonderful, I love it, but imagine your making a 2d game by yourself?  Ouch. AN great example of not the worlds best graphics, still making a wonderful game is Pleurgburg.

Long live the Duke! I hope they keep the pre-PC (political correctness) humour and lewdness of the originals.  ;)

I have always considered the art of the insult, to be a refined and proper sport.
You love child of a hungerian moose and a fire burnt elm tree. :D

What it IS more like is the difference between creationisim and evolutionism. Now, I was raised on creationisim, BUT I was also raised to think, to examine the evidence, even if it makes me uncomfortable. Now I still don't belive in abiogenesis, but evolution itself makes a lot more sense. In fact I am grateful my parents believed creationisim, because with my natural scientific curiosity, it made me think about every article I read. I studied the arguments, looking for loopholes. And I did read articles, I read science textbooks, encyclopedias, and  adult science magazines. I would force myself to read them, though my dogmatic side said, "this can't be right!" Eventually I came to the conclusion, evolution much more fit the facts then strict literal creationisim.

It was difficult, in fact , it IS difficult. But I am proud to say I have tried my best to look at the facts and not just accept the bald statements. In fact I hope to have a career in the sciences, among other things. And incase you haven't figured it out by now, I think we went to the moon. That it was one of the greatest achievements of not just the United States of America, but of the whole world. Scotch was right, its wonderful how we think WE went to the moon. It is one of the of the few moments of human history where mankind can stand together and say "We did it" To quote Jim Lovell: From now on, we live in a world where man has walked on the moon. And it's not a miracle, we just decided to go.

What I like about bad astronomy is that he admits when he has been wrong, and re edits his work. He isn't as dogmatic.

IF it turned out they faked it, no it wouldn't SUPRISE me. Yes they certainly had a motive IF they faked it. But if they were any real proof they faked it, the  former Soviets would have called them on it. They ALSO had a motive. So even if it COULD have been faked with the tech of the time, (which I don't believe it could IMNHO) that doesn't mean it was. just because something CAN be faked, doesn't mean it has been. People do get bullet wounds, we can fake one with make up, does that mean there is a vast conspiracy of gunshot victims? They would have a motive as well, not  getting killed. But if it was, how would you keep it a secret?

I thought he looked like tom hanks, I think he had some kind of mustache in "road to perdition"

- And why the hell man walked on the moon in 1969 and never after that?
- And flag was moving too like there were wind (I study geography and I just passed an   exam about solar system, believe me there is no wind on the moon), visiabillity of stars were mentioned but since moon have no atmosphere this is not a fact, lousy video transmission, well, mainly the flag  ;D ...

if it is jiggled and well, waved, by an astronaut, it would wave and for a time after because of inertia, and the fact it being a vacuum there would less friction to slow it down after. But if no  astronaut is touching it, and it hasn't been jiggled, its dead stock still. the reason it stays up at all is because it had a pole through the top horizontal supporting it.
And what makes you think we only went  in 1969? Ever here of Apollo 12 Apollo 13 (though they never landed due to an accident) Apollo 14  Apollo 15 Apollo 16  and Apollo 17? Not to mention Apollo 8 and Apollo 10, both of witch went into lunar orbit. Besides, where did we get all the moon rocks? And you can't say meteorites because a quick search of google will show you a fresh moon rock, looks very different from a moon meteor. They could have been faked, but these have been tested by scientists all over the world, and match Russian sample probes, which came after. were those faked as well? are the scientists part of a vast conspiracy?
