Cannon Powershot?

Point and shoot indeed :D

Yes!

Myth 3 was a bit disappointing in comparison but 1 and 2 are still among my all time favourites.

They're also a perfect example of real-time strategy done right. Great controls, formations and tactics matter, interesting units, suitably challenging missions, great story...

Still being maintained and ported? Hmm, I'll have to look it up then...

Funny.

Exposure to millions of photographs has just broadened my tastes in women. Except that I find very thin women lot less attractive than when I was in my teens...

Yes, tastes do change when we get older, but the internet just made me more openminded.

Cool :)

No, I have to say I haven't read any of those...

Amusingly enough, my interest in WWI aircraft got started by a) Peanuts comics and b) old pc game called Red Baron :)

Yes, I've read about that.

Otherwise my interest in aerial warfare has been more about the WW I era. And the manouverability was a bit different back then :)

Ok, I can see how it works now.

Thanks for the explanation.

Huh? I'm no expert on aerial combat but I read the wikipedia article on the Thach Weave and it does seem to require superior numbers in practice...

The pilots work in pairs and when an enemy fighter tries to engage one of them, the pair can execute the weave allowing the second pilot to attack the enemy.
So what happens if TWO enemy fighters attack, each targetting one of the pair?

Or even better, ESCF.

It's a lot more comfortable for my hand to leave the thumb on X (WAXD) or C (ESCF). Using S or D forces my hand into a less neutral position.

Maybe they intend to make sure the next one won't even last this long?

"Damn, they're still inside... Ok, release the skunks!"

Well...

IANAP but if you can see 9 cards just fine from the distance and then pick up one particular card to stare at it closer then yes, it does sort of hint at psychological differences...

Very well, bad choice of words on my part.

Let me rephrase: I must then belong to a minority as i do not curse more often in my dominant language.

Satisfied? :)

Yes, but my point was that I do not curse more often in my dominant language as claimed above.

Well I must an exception to that rule as Finnish is my first language but I tend to swear more often in English.

Now that I think about it the reason is probably that swearing in English feels more mild (and more socially acceptable). I generally switch to swearing in Finnish only when I'm truly upset.

I use walkthroughs (mostly in single player RPGs) for exactly one reason. I hate missing out on content.

It's very annoying to find out later on that if you had just taken the other road in the beginning of chapter 3 you'd have found the rare weapon X. Or that gaining skill Y would have required you to choose the third conversation option with NPC Z.

Sure you could find many of these hidden extras if you played through the game several times, searched everywhere and tried everything but how many of us has time for that?

It's terribly annoying when a keyboard decides to place something else in the top-left corner.

My previous keyboard had a sleep button in that location. More than once I was playing some game, tried to hit Esc quickly without looking and ended up cursing when the computer entered sleep mode... At least it was configurable so I could then disable it...
