Yep.

I feel like I love this more than I should.

Oh man, I had a couple of uncharacteristically ****ed up and bizarre dreams last night.

I had a dream where I was at school and was then picked up by the Normandy crew, taken to their ship, flown to the Citadel, and for some reason met characters from Bleach there and had a drink with Rangiku or Orihime at the Dark Star lounge. Not really sure what happened right after. One thing's for sure though. I'm not drinking ryncol next time I go there.

Nemesis, might want to lessen the games and anime there, bud.

Blasphemy.

*gets out oil and a burning stick* Someone is being a herectic?

Bioware used to have a perfect record to the point where I could say, and have said, 'Bioware has never gone wrong' in confidence. Their reputation has gotten shaky over DA2 and this ending, but that would simply obliterate it.

Yeah, how Bioware handles the DLC for ME3 is going to make or break them as a company.

I see EA making them charge for it, myself.

Imagine the elf as Bioware. Now imagine the greedy corporate businessman as EA.

This is probably how it's gonna go down.

What is this I don't even...

Well I suppose it is the logical progression. It was only a matter of time. Surprised about the lack of belts though.

Though Lightning being in a male fashion magazine.... huh?

LMAO

While humorous, there's a problem you need to be aware of:

It is illegal for an executive to take actions and decisions that will hurt a corporation. I forget the legal word for it...it's not due diligence... but it is similar.

The reasoning behind that is corporate corruption such as Enron. Many lives can be destroyed overnight if a corporate executive decides to go ape-sh*t. So while we may jump down EA's throat for being money grubbers, they have to be if they want to remain competitive.

If they gave away really expensive stuff for free, it might be provable in court that they did not do right by their obligation to the organization.

This is ALSO one of the main arguments against large corporations in a specific sector: once they become too large, they have more obligations, legally, to remain so, or they can get in trouble.

Enron.

I feel that EA is too big. The small to medium size developers usually are the ones that put out the good stuff (the stuff that surprises us and we like it). Did you get excited over the Need for Speed games for the last 4 years? I know I didn't.

Edit - I remembered: it's called fiduciary responsibility.

Gotta give Square-Enix credit for the first openly transvestite vg protagonist I guess. Even if it is much more acceptable for girls.

Still a bit strange though.

Theory: The extra square comes from the difference in the diagonal-sides in the triangles. Because one of the triangles is only 2 squares tall and 5 across it has a steeper angle than the other. The triangles in relation to the thingys is the key.

Theory no2: Mother****ing Miracles bro. 😮)

No, now I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the different height and widths of the triangles in relation to the 'rectangle'.
