Pre-ordered Arkham City. To get the joker edition I had to buy from Tesco. How did they get the best one?

How do you not understand that it doesn't matter whether or not it's actually important, so long as it's possibly important?

For example, if you told someone who is reading Dune that conditions on Arrakis weren't so different from those on Selusa Secundus, it would be a spoiler despite the fact that it doesn't actually reveal anything directly. The fact that it becomes a plot point later in the book (and I use the term "plot point" very loosely there, since it's really just something the protagonist notices) is completely irrelevant.


You're the one who said anything could possibly be a spoiler. Names, hair colors, eye colors, etc would be spoilers by your logic. Revealing something directly is an actual spoiler. Hinting at something is not.


I'm pretty sure that isn't even a response to what I said, since you're back to arguing with the dictionary definition.

No you fail to understand it. "doesn't actually reveal anything directly" Hinting at something is not a spoiler. Saying there's nothing behind a door is not a spoiler.

Saying there's nothing behind the door isn't hinting at something. Even if my example was wrong, it was a response to your Tatooine comment and wouldn't support your point anyway. This argument is quickly becoming farcical and circular; if you've got anything worthwhile to say feel free to send it in a TG. Otherwise, consider it over.

So does anybody know if the no damage from special infected achievement count towards tanks too in Left 4 Dead?

Why the hell would they need better graphics? Mass Effect's graphics were fine.

IMO, the multiplayer is coming 2 games too late.

The textures are not as good as other games. This is apparent when you look at Garrus' armor.

Now, granted, there are hi-textures mods, but really, there are apparent flaws:

I seriously don't see a game-breaking difference. Ffs the graphics are way better than is necessary for a fun game, and the more time/money they spend on graphics the worse everything else gets.

In short: Graphics are one of the most overprioritized parts of a game, and it's only like that because they make the game sell better. And because of people like you, who complain that great graphics are bad simply because they aren't the best in relation to every other game (which is even worse than it should be due to the tendency to compare games that are a few years old to ones that are a few months old).

You don't need to spend money on that. :palm:

Bullshit. Where the fuck did I fucking complained? I really don't like being accused of shit I didn't do.
