  1. http://pc.ign.com/objects/700/700601.html For those of us that were RTS gaming in 2000, you may remember a quiet, but epic WWII real time strategy (really tactics when you think about it), that came out of nowhere from Germany and Russian devs CDV. Sudden strike was not known for overall prettiness, its graphics were state of the art at the time, and nothing really groundbreaking. What made the game truly shine, however, was the sheer scope of battles. You could control over 1000 units at once, artillery, tanks, infantry, ships, and "callable" air support and paratroopers. There were over 15 types of infantry, each nation's units were well represented, and the game had a pretty tight armor value system. While the single player suffered from a complete allergy to historical realism, and the AI was fucking unforgiving (it would wail on your ass with a meat hammer), the game's multiplayer is what really made it shine. thousands of units fighting over a 2d map of europe, with garrisonable structures and fully destroyable environments. I played a LOT of this game my first 2 years of undergrad between starcraft and red alert 2. The game is not a base building RTS, you get a set of units at the beginning, and based on your ability to take territory, preserve your army and keep them supplied (which was a big issue... infantry, tanks, etc can ACTUALLY run out of ammo). This made for really aggressive multiplayer games which were a real treat to watch as observer. an 8 player battle with decent players was killer to watch. In 2002 they made a sequel, which was technologically the same, but a hell of a game to play online, expanding the first with player controlled transport planes (take off landing, loading, paradropping", new units, and new campaigns (Still suffering from allergy of accuracy). In another week, SS3, basically revamped SS2 with prettier graphics an EVEN HIGHER unit cap, and allegedly really well done, responsive and aggressive AI will be released. Multiplayer is allegedly better, and it will allow you to wail on germans and russians and east euros that were all addicted to this game in the early 2000s, especially the ones on the multiplayer "berlin" server that tend to make a korean starcraft asswhipping seem like a tea party. I for one encourage you all to check it out, maybe get it and give it a chance. In a world of samey RTS's while we all wait for SC2, its nice to see someone do something different that doesnt totally become a colossal failure (cough world in conflict cough). Anyway, any thoughts? Who may get this but me? I'd be happy to play with anyone here, start clans, etc.
  2. Sad songs?

    That used to play in the ice cream truck that would sell weave, hot sausage, and ice cream near my neighborhood as a kid.

  4. LOLz. It sometimes isnt lubricative... and thats when the going gets rough... When the going gets rough, the participants get KY.
  5. Do porn. Its much more lucrative. If I was a chick, I would do it for a few years. Shit I'd do it as a guy, I just dont know where to sign up. "The long cock of the law" lulz
  6. there are lots of towns in the south and midwest with labor availability and dirt cheap rent. Bus tix - under 200 dollars anywhere... sell call, get job.
  7. I'd go with the harley. Im non a big fan of the crotch rocket
  8. these are LOL
  9. I'll say this: the overwhelming control of unions on labor in the mid-atlantic DO make it more difficult to find work in major metropolitan areas, AND the over-coddling of the homeless in the area also reduces desire to do much of anything, here in the Mid Atlantic, it almost is a cycle, but its not inescapable... its just too convenient to otherwise get out of... the rationale being"why work for min wage and pay taxes when i can live a a shelter, panhandle, and get free clothing without having to spend 8 hours doing menial work" Florida however, there are less social services, moreso now than ever, and its basically "panhandle from tourists, rob tourists, or get a job doing SOMETHING, or starve." The reason its easy to be homeless in fla, and why they would pass a law like this is that miami itself is conducive to homelessness: its warm year round... so there isnt a fear of being outside all night. The worst to fear is malaria, and that can be dealt with by a taxpayer funded safari to the jackson memorial hospital.... there are loads of stupid loose pursed europeans are always willing to part with change, as are guilt laden, apology-mongering liberal upper class white people that vacation there or are pretending to get an education at UM when they arent popping X in clubs. I've done school events where we made MORE panhandling than we did actually doing the car wash. What does that tell you? Passing a law to keep these undesirables out of sight of the business district (where the ppl who prefer to shop, work, etc. without a urine soaked wino bothering them), or the beaches (where the supple daughters of said previous persons who were in business districts go to shake tail) or the residential areas (where people live... in houses... ) I have issues with my hometown, its city govt, and the spending policies, but if they are going to waste money on public works, then it may as well be education or advertising to get more attractive work down there.. not subsidizing sloth and becoming a magnet for the homeless.
  10. they can even make menial jobs, sell some oranges, shrimp, or bootleg cds on the side of the palmetto entrance.
  11. I can vouch for this, in front of home depot, lots of menial postings, also, my family does a good deal of construction, there ARE jobs. You just have to get up at crack of dawn and dont stop till like dark... its easier to beg for change.. ergo.. the results. Miami has menial work, it just doesnt have educated people work for decent wage.
