Character creation was pretty much the best part of CoH. Sometimes more fun than the actual game.

They can if they hold a monopoly or near monopoly on their service or good, hence why we have protections in place against monopolies abusing their position.
The answer is not much. No one has been killed by swear words, no one has been killed by watching porn, no one has been raped by watching R rated movies, etc.
I don't know about that last one. I felt pretty violated after seeing Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever.
Yes, and a decent motherboard can take AM2, AM2+, or AM3 chips with no issue. The only problem with that is whether they'll take DDR2 or DDR3 RAM.
Mine main system is built from parts. I add in new parts as needed. This seems to amount to getting stuff like video cards, or CPU and Motherboard every two years or so. Althought not all at once. I've found that getting a video card one year and the CPU, and motherboard if necessary, the next keep the system feeling current. Additionally, less strain on the wallet at one time. Stuff like hard drives are added as needed.
No Stands with a Fist was a Lakota adoptee. It's been ages since I watched the movie and I don't recall the exact circumstances. But that's why she can speak English even though she was out of practice.
So, there are things where if you win a game, that's how you gain experience points. If you win against a higher level opponent, you get more experience points; if you bottom feed and you take advantage of lower-level players, you don't get as much, and so on.
Isn't that a somewhat old and fairly standard team rating/ranking system? I'm fairly sure that various sports games already do that kind of system so that you can't do as well by just beating low teams.
If not then half of Games Workshop's sideline table-top 'skirmish' games already do it, and Blood Bowl has already been made in to a game (once with license, and before that without a license).
Bloodbowl has actually been made with license twice. There's licensed games from 1995 and 2009 as well as the unlicensed 2004 Chaos League.
It was a decent action adventure type game. Nothing remotely like the originals. It was also a parody of the genre. The main character was voice acted by Cary Elwes and was somewhat amusing. It DID include all of the other Bard's Tale games in a format usable on modern systems, which was a definite plus. As far as being true to the originals, from what the wiki said, the company that produced the game had no rights to the originals IP, that's all locked up by EA, so they could only make vague references.
I very much enjoyed the new Ghostbusters game. It was definitely the movie sequal most of us wanted back in the late 80s/early 90s. The amount of dialogue and just little features in the game was very impressive. I spent about 20 minutes clicking on the Viggo the Carpathean painting and very rarely got repeat dialogue. I was somewhat disturbed when he threatened to 'Wear me like a pair of pants.'.
The one day you'd sell your soul for something, souls are a glut.
