  1. My wife and I wanted to go and watch, but we couldn't get there in time. Looks like a fantastic demonstration though!

    G'Day mate! Been way too long.

    Looks like it would have been an excellent demo to witness! I've seen a few down here in Australia over the last few years and they are impressive! Though i was a little bit closer then the video was taken from!

    There is talk of creating International SOF capabilities based on regions. I.e. sharing more intel and resources...could be a good thing.

    It has been way too long, my friend! Let me know next time you're in town, and I'll take you to dinner. We need to catch up, my friend!

  2. Al?

    LOL someone has changed my post, in order to prevent confusion. Some of us have known each other long enough to be on a first-name basis.

    Which is normally caught by our filters and changed to our forum name. ;)

    Interesting! I did not know that. I'll be mindful of that in the future! :)

  3. DealXtreme (from HongKong) has some bargain/slightly used Fleshlight

    HA! Got your attention. Actually Logitech has some "Damaged Box" deals where a $250 G27 steering wheel can be had for $150.

    you can stop Googling Fleshlight now

    I thought fleshlight was a typo at first. Then, I realized you had capitalized it. Why must I be so inquisitive? Why must you be so mischievous?!

  4. Wish they'd bring back the ability to have a full squad instead of this four-man baloney. No commander in his right mind would send four men against about 200 enemies in an open, obvious attack. This is something I'm trying to avoid doing in Texas Militia; if it is a large operation, you get plenty of armor and infantry support. It ain't gonna happen that way in real life, and if you do it in games, you're just encouraging more quicksaving and quickloading every minute.

    John Basilone and two fellow Marines, during the battle for Henderson Field on Guadalcanal, held off and annihilated nearly three thousand Japanese troops, after the Japanese reduced Basilone's fifteen-man unit to just himself and two other men. So, four against two hundred? I wouldn't put that in the realm of impossibility for a few highly-trained and highly-motivated American fighting men. American history is, thankfully, spangled with brave men who have taken on insurmountable odds in battle, and won.

  5. My wife recently surprised me with a copy of SWTOR, and I've been enjoying the game a lot. TOR does have some limitations and annoyances, but I do enjoy it. In the future, I hope to see things like customizable starships, friends in our starships, player houses, player-written books (a la EQ2), more crafting options, and generally something to do besides killing things. I reference EQ2, because in that game, there is so much to do. You don't have to adventure at all, if you don't want to, and there's still a wealth of content for you. It's also coming on eight years old though, and TOR is still in its infancy, so hopefully TOR will begin to spread out a bit soon. Other that those limitations and the subpar artwork though, I really enjoy it.

  6. The environment does look so much more like Ghost Recon than either of the abysmally bad GRAW titles did. It almost looks like Ghost Recon, in fact. I'm still not digging the optical camouflage, though, and sincerely hope that it gets the axe completely before the game ships. Not that I'll be purchasing the game, if it ships w/ Ubi's draconian "You can't upgrade your PC" DRM.
