Ahhh, yes... Government at it's lowest errr best. So what happened to Doctor Patient confidentiality? It seems the medical professionals threw that one right out the window. If the woman had a history of mental illness then the medical professionals could have intervened, and according to most laws in most states regarding this, she could have been held for observation and subsequently hospitilized. this one isn't about pro-choice concerning abortion or any of that malarky. Doctors are not God. Could they say with 100% conviction(proof) that the child would have lived after the procedure? My opinion is this, the medical professionals should be held as accessories, if this is ultimately judged as murder. Unborn children are just that, unborn children. If our laws begin reaching to in utero humans, then every woman on the planet who has had an abortion, simply because she didn't want to be bothered raising the child, is a murderer, right along with the doctors who provided the service. Bottom line... "It's not for us to judge." "It's not for our court system to judge. The ultimate and only judge we all have to face is ourselves. I can cite another example.. I suffered a seizure last November and was hospitilized. The Neurolgist who was supposedly treating me is locally considered a Quack. I spoke with my regular physician about it. Within 30 minutes the nurses were removing the I.V. and I was leaving the hospital Against medical advice. I was required to sign a waiver releasing the facility of any responsibilty for what could later happen to me. Now if I died later because of my decision,Would I be charged with murdering myself? Or just listed as a suicide? Just because a Doctor tells you you need surgery for anything, are we now legally bound to have it done.? Are this woman's rights concerning her body to be lightly tossed aside now, simply because it involved an in utero human?? Let the free-for-all begin..

No opinions of the developer or his quirky nature. That's why we like him, he's quirky. It gave the reader enough information to make their own decision about the title and whether or not they would like to buy it and try it. "Just the facts Ma'am, Just the facts." oopsie i make alot of those these days.

LOL, Apparently the creatures we co-habitate this planet with are getting a bit peeved about man stealing all the food reaources.

Picture this as the opening movie of KB. You are on a shuttle heading to a combat zone. Your character is looking straight ahead, and the guy next to you is talking your ear off about how important it is to cover your buddy to survive the upcoming mission, blah blah blah. You turn to your right and there is your buddy, smiling, wearing a "Resnig" patch on his uniform. Of course, only BC/UC gamers would get it. heh He would not survive the trip. "Just toss his body in yon bomb crater."

Now that you have read that link in my previous post.... Mr Kerry is also a member of The Order of Skull and Bones. So any political mudslinging in this upcoming campaign is just more of this Secret Society's belief in chaos to achieve their goal of World Domination. The old British Royalty is alive and well in America and they reside over every branch of our government. They have secretly charted the course of many nations. stolen much of our wealth and sent many of our sons and daughters to their death. They are murderers and thieves in every sense of the words. I feel like nuking Connecticut from orbit. I am so disgusted I could puke. Anyone want to help me build an MK III?

here's an interesting read, especially for our resident historion, Jaguar http://www.freedomdomain.com/secretsocieties/skull01.html

As I recall, I mentioned these secret societies in a previous thread. although I mistakenly called them The Skulls. But, no matter what, these guys are more Elitist than anyone in Germany's Nazi party could ever be, back in the Early 30's and 40's. They have been, and continue to grind away at the people of our nation and many others. Money brings power and influence and they swing it around like a two edged sword.Lopping off heads as they please. Doing anything and everything to insure their wealth and power continues unabated. The last Presidential election is proof enough of the shenanigans these guys perpetrate. Was it just odd coincidence that the state that tipped the electoral vote in Bush's favor, just happened to be governed by his brother? Who is Most likely a member of the same cult himself? I sincerely hope I never see the day when their Blackbooted thugs begin yanking people out of their homes to disappear and never be seen again. It will come to that I guarantee you. Hopefully I'll be long gone by then. [ 03-09-2004, 08:01 AM: Message edited by: Wolferz ]

Hmmm, I guess I need to add another company full of greedy Rah Rah Retards to my boycott list. I have some pitchforks and plenty of torches, anyone have a rope? It might be time to forget the legal system and revert to good old fashioned vigilante mob justice.Anyone want to place a wager on how fast the swat team takes us out?

I like Lumpy. ROTFLMAO

So,Some of the sinister agents who are behind everything that goes on in Washington are now exposed. PHILANTHROPISTS. People with more money than they know what to do with and in their ever increasing greed to keep it out of Washington, They form these foundations masked as non-profit organizations, then turn around and steal every hard working American's tax money in the form of Government handouts, simply by putting money into a candidate's campaign fund. The candidates aren't concerned with the real issues that plaque this country. They throw up these smoke screens to mask what is really going on. The unbridled raping of America by those with a load of cash in the bank. And they aren't going to stop with this country, they want all the rest too. But who am I to voice my opinion to any of these greedy bastages? I am a speck in their eyes. A mouse who for all intensive purposes to them is looking to steal something from them and leave droppings in their Genuine Silverware drawer. To take care of us, there have been traps set in the law to catch us. Under the guise of the Homeland security Act. God forbid that they be exposed for what they really are. Murderers and Rapists

Dennis S., In response to your most recent post, there will be no response due to the strict decorum we try to maintain here on these boards. "Turn the gas off back there Charlie." "As much as I want to, I'm not gonna fry this one."

Whoa! Not a single reply to that one. No John Stossel and ABC are right wing liberals. No rebuttals whatsoever. Well, hush my mouth and feed me peanutbutter! Which is about all that I can afford to eat. Thank you lawmakers. Thank you big business. Thank you America. How do I get off this lousy planet?

Who cares what their differences are? Let's take a look at what both of them are doing... http://www.reason.com/0403/fe.js.confessions.shtml That oughta stir things up a bit.. [ 03-05-2004, 12:18 PM: Message edited by: Wolferz ]

The Homelan review was right on the money in my book. "Just the facts, Ma'am, just the facts. Bravo.

Maybe some of these reviewers should use a jar of Peanut Butter to coax in a Squirrel with very very cold paws, and have it write the review? eh? I'm sure if they put enough Peanut Butter on the keyboard, chances are the Squirrel might just produce at least one coherent word, maybe even a sentence. Who knows?

Why am I even getting into this? I dunno, but I'll throw in my $.02 First of all, I have no problem with people finding what makes them happy. My Ex Wife jumped the proverbial fence after 16 years of marriage. She now lives with a Lesbian partner who is often mistaken for a man. My children were the victims of ridicule in school because of their mother's actions. Strike 1. Is this type of behavior seen in nature? You don't see gay and lesbian dogs doing the nasty do you? Or any other animal for that matter. Although you will see animals that will form an attachement to another animal of the same sex. I will use Lion prides and Wolf Packs as an example. But that is a purely social animal requirement for all to survive. The legal implications are mind bogling. Just what we all need. Another way to make lawyers rich so they can run for office and really get rich by really screwing us all. So, should Gays get a free pass to 1st base just because they have 4 balls on them? I don't think so. Strike 2 The bisexuals who are spreading AIDS like Peanut Butter and murdering innocent people. Those folks should be rooted out like McCarthy's Commies and put in isolation. Strike 3 Game over.

Tom, wrote a fairly good piece there, but I am still left with the impression that so many other reviewers leave... They don't get far enough into the game to actually find it.

Baaahahahaha! That was a good one, *snip* *knock it off Wolfie. No personal insults on reviewers please* [ 03-03-2004, 04:13 PM: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

WOW! SC You beat me to the punch. I'm heading for the Medibay to get these burns treated. Patently harmless??? He don't know me vewy well do he? Like the Hairy Timber Wolf I am so named for, my bite is worse than my bark.

Wow, Dennis! I am both impressed and honored by your reply to my post above. My apologies to Mike for being so satirical about his review, since he and I share the same first name. I guess we can only lay blame for any shortcomings of UC squarely on the shoulders of Dream Crusher for their greedy shortsightedness. If Mike grabs a copy of BCM and plays it for a month and then plays UC. I'm sure both of you will agree about the sheer magnitude, not only of Derek's dream, but the brilliant execution of it that resulted. /Opinion mode on (my opinion and only my opinion) Today's publishers can be lumped into one category. Greedy SOB's with no regard for the customers who purchase their products. They don't care if the developer has finished the work or not. They just want to snatch the code away from them as soon as they possibly can, stamp it on a disc, put it in the retail pipe, make a wad of cash off of it, and drop it for rhe next cash cow they culled out of the pasture. I have seen it over and over all too many times. Grab it, sell it, leave the customer dangling. It's sad really. For reasons of Copyright I won't list them all here. But they know who they are. Those publishers are on my permenant boycott list. There is a saying in the sales trade::: "If you lose one customer, you have lost one hundred" Because people are more prone to relate a bad experience than a good one. Mike's review of UC is a prime example. /opinion mode off. Dennis I would never flame you on any message board, especially this one. Can you say I have fried my share of trolls and they all smell really bad when toasted. As for correcting a faux paus, I can only suggest that your reviews be written in a Joe Friday manner.."Just the facts m'am, just the facts" In my personal view, the review came across as rather hateful, but that's just my view. Maybe Mike was just having a bad day, I dunno. Also, Comparing a game to others is wrong wrong wrong, Focus only on the one you are reviewing. Why would you want to aim your reviews at preventing people from buying a game? We're talking lawsuit territory here. Defamation is not a becoming trait for those who should be looking at something objectively. Just state the facts and let the general public make up their own minds. If they buy the game and don't wish to invest the time it takes to learn it fully, they are free to return it to the store. I'm sure From Derek's point of view, UC was meant for BC fans to consume.(Correct me if I'm wrong Boss, I'll be over here in the Airlock)) It was DC that wanted to widen the audience, (On very short notice BTW). For the sole purpose of trying to take advantage of the fans of other gaming genres.(again a greedy attempt to make more money)Making more money is not a bad thing, but you should not do it by screwing your customers and the people who create the product. I have literally quit many a job because the management wanted me to put forth falsehoods to screw a customer and make their bottom line a little fatter. All of the elements within UC were not something that could be slapped together in a month or two or three, But Derek was forced to do so And like he has always done with the BC series, Even in the face of adversity, he continues to work on improving it. How many developers do that? None, Nada, Nicht, other than 3000AD. Mike I read your review of X-2 and I again got the feeling that you were not on the outside looking in. At the beginning you seem to be looking for what you want the game to be( like all of us) instead of reporting what it actually is. Which you do later in your diatribe. Kudos on that one bud. /removes finger from Satirical Bugnor missile launcher button. /roleplay on Commander Wolferz:"Helm, set course for the Mars gate."

This is good I'm sure the guys will appreciate it. This is a Dear John Letter that back fired. Great thinking. The ultimate response to a Dear John letter...You gotta love a man like this. Humor in the face of defeat. A Marine was deployed to Afghanistan. While he was there he received a letter from his girlfriend. In the letter she explained that she had slept with two guys while he had been gone and she wanted to break up with him. AND, she wanted pictures of herself back. So the Marine did what any squared-away Marine would do. He went around to his buddies and collected all the unwanted photos of women he could find. He then mailed about 25 pictures of women (with clothes and without) to his girl friend with the following note: "I don't remember which one you are. Please remove your picture and send the rest back

Now that! was a decent game review in my book. The reviewer actually spent some time getting acquainted with it before slaping down a load of blathering crap about it. He remained on the outside, looking in. Rather than what most reviewrs do..... Loading it up and expecting the game to have a hand holding tutorial to make them instant Ubermeisters in a vast universe. BRAVO!

That review resembled a wish list more than an honest review of the game. What is it with these guys? Do they really expect to pull a game out of the box, throw it in the coffee holder, and find instant gratification? It was clearly apparent he spent no time learning anything about the program beyond what he expected to see. But I digress and I'll get into his mindset. /thinking bubble on Damn! it's Friday and the editor just dropped another game to review on my desk, and he wants the written review by the end of the day. Ahh piss on it! I'll call my girlfriend and talk to her while I'm loading this thing and glossing through the manual. "Hi baby. "what am I doing right now? "thinking about you and loading some POS game called Universal Combat." "Yeah the editor just dropped it on my desk and the bastard wants a review by 5." "no no sweetheart, don't worry, I'll just toss some crap together about it, turn it in and I'll be out of here by 4:30" "You're wearing that red teddy right now? "You're going to do what ? to me when I get there." "OW! I can't get out from under my desk" "That's right, it got hung on the drawer and you're going to pay for it when I get home." "Ok snookums, see you at 5 luvya bubye" "OK back to work" "WTF is this crap?" " How do you play this game without a tutorial?" " I'll make this simple and get some screenshots off the net and throw a pragraph or two together about Derek Smart and a few paragraphs about how crappy his games are, oh and a very brief synopsis of what i've seen on my screen here for the last ten minutes, then I'm done" "that was easier than I thought it would be" " I'm going to get soome more coffee and a donut" /thinking bubble off
