Even basic bf2 had some flight elements irrc. Flight sim games, even combat ones, are generally pretty boring. To each his own, I suppose. True, but the maximum of 4 planes, 2 combat choppers and 2/4? black hawks would never match the 30+ aircraft you could get in some mods.
Chrome. I used to be an avid user of Opera but eventually the need for most of its functionality went away (ie: I graduated uni). I added a few extensions to Chrome just to up the functionality a bit (adblock, speed dial, geustures). Nice and clean.
wat *facepalm* what's the point? someone makes a game that pisses all over an already banned game (in terms of graphic content) and it's sweet with an R18+ but the already banned game remains banned? wtf logic.
Went to see Less Than Jake back in '05, I think. Then Carl Cox in ... 08' - don't remember. I just know those are the only two concerts (If you consider Carl Cox a concert when he's doing a set at a club) I have been to in my entire life. I'm not much of a gig person. Things like Big Day Out, Soundwave, etc don't appeal to me :-\
To be fair, EA could have done a lot worse with the C&C line. Westwood were great at it and regardless of who took over it never would have been "the same" so some disappointment would have happened either way. Edit: Playing Morrowind right now. It feels weird playing the ES games in reverse :-\
