Jedi Knight 2 and 3 are great games, my brother and I would often Play a LAN game and add like 60 Skywalker bots to attack us, they'd usually pile up It's pretty fun when you turn decapatation up.

I could see that But I wonder what they're saying...

That's because almost no computer could play it, it would need a dedicated system, I.E. consol, to run these things. DMM and Euphoria would use up simply too much power from the various processors, like the CPU or GPU. Any mid-high end computer has the stuff to run it, especially if it has a PPU, the problem is that it isn't completely dedicated to the the game at all times, like a PS3 or 360. It has to run whatever programs in the background; even if it's only explorer, it's just too devided to run somthing like 'The Force Unleashed'. Take for instance, my computer is better than my 360, in just about every way, but it still can't run Oblivion as well. I'll probably be buying it for the PS3, because Mr. Omernick(Art Director for SW:TFU) said that it would look better on a PS3 than a 360. But I can't wait for this one, it's up on the list with Halo 3, Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank 5, Starcraft 2, and Sim City Societies. The end of this year, is going to ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Haha! 24.404 secconds!

Of course they had tractors, but they didn't have giganto-cranes that are 200ft tall, or a lot of the other modern great things that make building big statues so easy. And I never said that Machu Picchu was "undeserving", I inquired why it was on the list, seeing as it was a city, compared to the others, which are all single feat's on engineering. I guess it could be considered a single feat of engineering, but it's still a city. And sure, there's your list of 18, the first three were built in the last twelve years, how's that for modern, with another six of them being built in the last 30 years, and an addional 4 being smaller. The statue of Liberty was on the list, but wasn't voted to be one of them, (Considering It's green(Bronze), ugly, and wasn't even built in America.). The Motherland calls, while impressive, has a sword making up about a third of it's hieght. And is thirty years newer. The Statue of Peter the Great, I think should be one of the votable wonders. As should the Statue, Motherland, in Kiev, Ukraine. The Leshan Giant Budda statue, isn't all that impressive, and was carved out of hill, So it's kinda cheating.

I know how big 8 meters is. Which I think is actually only a lot for a man, but a bit for a statue. I never said you didn't, however I still disagree, there aren't that many colossel statues out there. Although I think there are a few larger than the statue of Christ the Redeemer. Thats what we are all answering. I never disputed that. Hence why i said it is a feat of engineering.. and they definately had more modern technology in the 1920's(!!!!) than they did in 280BC(!!!) That's not what I mean't, of course it's more 1920AD is more modern than 280BC, rather, 1920 still isn't 'modern'. If it was 'modern' they would have used Giant Cranes and such. To answer that.. I find that pretty damn amazing. They must have had some sort of rope system, because, unless it's a really, reeeaallly wide stone, a few hundred people couldn't all be pushing it at the same time, unless they were pusing on the backs of their companions. First, its desert.. unless they built it in a banana split.. hehehe i like that joke.. anyway... being that the city of Machu Picchu is in the Andes Mountains, I would find it to be pretty cold up there for people who dont have ANY means of heat besides fire.. and probabaly only wore llama fur tunics.. if that.. i think those were only for officials.. oh and.. "industrial means"... Bah, you caught me red handed! , I've been having a problem with that, I know it's desert, but I've had a slight problem with writing desert, as dessert. I think Jahled answered that one for you. Ok fine. But it's still a city; And further more, why am I arguing about this? I don't even think there should be a list of seven wonders. There are far too many spectacular buildings and/or cities in the world to title only seven of them as 'World Wonders'. So I guess I don't even care if Machu Picchu is on said list or not, it is spectacular, and like many other great feats of engineering, for lack of a better term, awesom. So, yeah, ... But, my all time favorite has to be the Great Wall, I just wish I could see in person, it's so cool!

Say, that reminds me, I miss the good'ol Admiral; What did happen to Antililles any way? P.S. I voted for you Mad, I hope you take it as more of a compliment than an insult.

Check your listing of Wonders of the Ancient World. It isn't on the new list, d00d. Yes, except the Colossus of Rhodes may or may not have been real. There is not extent evidence to prove its existence. And, as JH mentioned, it created by way of modern engineering compared to, say, the Parthenon, the Great Pyramids (your example!), or the Easter Island heads. Then why is it even on the 'original list', if it may or may not be real? And 8 Meters is 26.25 feet or so, which is a lot for a statue. Also, I never said that it was more deserving of being one the '7 world wonders' than any other 'wonder', I said that I didn't see why every one is "all up in arms' about it. Just because it was built in the 20th century, doesn't make it 'modern' or mean that it was built with 'modern technology', It was still most likely a challenge. An entire city in the mountains, where the construction was based on hauling rocks from miles away into the mountains, built by hand, and hardly touched by the modern hand. Sure, it's not a wonder. It's impressive, indeed; But it's still a city, it's like comparing the city of London, to the Empire State building in New York, they're different classes, in my opinion. Also severel of the pyramids were built with precision, and with rocks from several miles away. Yeah, except this is a personal opinion. The other objections were based on comparative analysis.That, is why I said personally. And, that, is beside the point. It could very well mean that the Government of Peru, and/or the Spanish were bad explorers. . The Egyptians were pre-columbian, and they built the pyramids in the dessert. The Chinese were pre-columbian, and the 'Great Wall' used a lot more stone, considering it's over 4,000 miles, or 6,400 kilometers long, not to mention built on a mountain, in a more northern enviroment, which means: snow. Also, elaborate on what you call "industrial means". *tear* Poor me, all out numbered and such....

Why is it, that the Chichén Itzá, is on it, when the Great Pyramid didn't, it's nearly the same, only bigger. Also, I don't see why every one is all up in arms about the stature of Christ the Redeemer, what isn't wonderous about a clossol 38 meter Statue, on a freakin' mountain. Besides, it is bigger than the Colossus of Rhodes, which hasn't been standing for over two thousand years. Now I could see why the Great Wall, the Colosseum, and even thr Palace Tombs of Petra, could count. But Machu Picchu? It's a city, not a building, what's so wonderous about a city? THere are lots of ancient cities out there, heck even cities on mountains, but still... As for the Taj Mahal.. No thanks. I dount think it's that spectacular. Sure it has white marbel and is large, But I personally don't like the looks of it, but I guess it could count as a wonder.

Baaaaad Image. You know, the funny thing is, that I have a Wii, but I never play it, PS3 is way better, IMO. Even more funny, is that I've had 'The Twilight Princes' for it, but I haven't even opened up the 'Factory Seal'. Full Auto 2, Jak 3, and The Matrix: Path of Neo, is all that I've been playing recently. I'm working on a ton of Jak 3 models, Characters, Weapons, Vehicles, etc, so I've been busy. I'm making them for personal education in the 3d art field. edit: Oh, yeah, and a wee bit of Oblivion, good, gooooood Game, I had it for the 360 and for the PC, with Knight's of the Nine, and Shivering Isles Expansion pack. The mods can make it a lot funner. Crackdown is a good game for the 360, Resistance is also, for the PS3. My brother is obsessed with Gears of War, also for the 360. A little gory for me though, with the whole 'Chainsaw Bayonet' and 'Frag-tag Exloding', but the Storyline is pretty good, the sound track is on par with the Halo series, and the gameplay is solid. Plus the Characters, if not Sweaty, Greasy, Crusty, and full of Steriods(I.E. Cole), they're pretty cool.

An, epic take on a classic, I got to show this to my Sister, She loves this sort of thing.

73.818meters, Plus I got 2 loops! I belive this calls for somthing Semi-Epic!

Mate, you got your facts twisted in all sorts of strange ways. Mad has only been here since May 2004. Now, by my calculations, that means he had over four thousand a year before he joined. Yes, I wrote that correctly. Kaja, you joined in October 2003. Mad is by far not one of the oldest members here. Jahled and LaForge are class of 2002. Budious and I are from early 2003... What? No! That can't be! I guess I must have been thinking of when I really became an active member, around 2005? Yeah, that's sounds right. And I didn't say he was the oldest, I said he was one of the oldest.

Well, keep in mind, Mad is one of the sites oldest members, he had over four thouasand way back when, during the times when I just joined.

Yay! I've only been back for, what, four days? And I'm already a candidate for 'Manspam'(Sci-fi Original) Seriously, I usually wait until at least two people have posted in the 'Corrupt-a-wish game'

I've got a few, but I don't remember how to make it so that when you use the URL tag, instead of the URL being clickable, you have your own text, so, yeah.

Granted, But they're not fun to play anymore. I wish that a cinder block would fall on the next person to corrupt my Wish.

Yeah, I know, but I couldn't resist when Darth_Rob mentioned Adam West.

Granted, now they have so much stablity code in them, that they fry any CPU, and/or GPU in your computer. I wish Windows wasn't so annoying.

Then there's the two sequels: Reload this one as soon as you see the picture, to sync the sound. http://picardhitsbatman.ytmnd.com/ and: http://picardendsbatman.ytmnd.com/ They joy's of YTMND.com....

Eagle, you are right. The thing is is that he's the art director, and he didn't even work at Lucas Arts when rebellion was made; but maybe, maaayyyybe, he might be able to get somthing for us. And besides, we would still need a fairly capable programer to make any use of it. The chances are higher, that if there was sombody, who had the free time and the know-how to use the source, they would have already *made* a better source code. I mean really, Rebellion isn't all that complicated codewise. It's faily simple in design. And Lord_la_forge, you're also right, he probably doesn't know what Rebellion is. Or, he could be a major fan of it,

Heh, batman... Reminds me of this: http://ualuealuealeuale.ytmnd.com/

Granted, but now all watermelons are hollow. I wish Darth_Rob didn't hate 'those white seeds'.

Granted, you no longer have a head. I wish so many songs didn't have the f-word in 'em, so I could listen to them louldly.

Looks good to me, how many GHz does the processor have? Thought If I were you, I would have waited a while longer and gotten more 64-bit bassed parts. That computer while about as good as mine, will get outdated, VERY fast. The market is already shifting to 64-bit games and programs. But still, looks good to me.
