Eaglesham: http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Eaglesham

Answers to both questions! Hot drops of mechs from that altitude are entirely possible, though its unlikely that it would be an Atlas. As for the hula girls, it's a throw-back to the original MW 5 trailer, and has become something of a "cake" meme over on the MWO boards On a side note, I am...

I feel as if UFC is simply harkening back to the days of the gladiator. Bread and circuses and all that jazz. Anyways, that got me to thinking, "why not just have gladiatorial combat?" Give these guys a couple of sharp swords, blood proof the ring (or turn it into sand), and just let 'em...

Attention all tech workers in the US! There's some lovely tech-ready buildings in Waterloo and Ottawa that would be more than happy to house your businesses. Its OK, winter only lasts 8 months here, and there'll be all the slides and nerf gun fights you can handle. (Unless of course the...

A good friend of mine had a nice piece of wisdom about being a police officer. He said "If I could do my job, and not have to carry a gun to do it, I would enjoy it that much more." I understand that for many people, particularly in rural environments, a firearm is a tool, much like a shovel...

Having grown up playing MW 2: Mercenaries, I can say with authority that I am SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Seriously though, I am pumped to crawl back into the cockpit and hear the familiar "All systems nominal..."

Receding hairline, kidney stones, achy knees, and a perma-gimped shoulder! Gotta love being 22! Other things that make me feel old? Realizing that my sister is starting university in September, that I'm done university in 18 months, and having a semi-intelligent conversation with someone who...

Sony to Nintendo: I see your one smoking hole in the left foot, and raise you two smoking holes in the right

For those who are arguing that shipping is the huge issue in delaying games in certain regions, I counter with the fact that at the grocery store I work at, I can purchase fruit and veg from across the globe which is still reasonably fresh. If they can get a kiwi fruit from NZ to Canada in a...

Did I read somewhere that Valve and Sony were perhaps co-operating? Could this mean the inclusion of Valve characters in such a game? (puts on thick romanian accent) WHO KNOWS!!! But seriously, any excuse to cram the couch full of my friends and have a balls-out battle royale in glorious HD...

You know what? Its a funny and engaging take on a topic that is all too often glossed over, avoided, or awkwardly fumbled by those in charge of educating the young'uns about sexual health. If it gets kids to understand the key points of safer sex, and harm reduction, I'm all for it. The fact...

In a world dominated by PC gaming and everything is DRM free! Zing! But seriously though, would love to see a napoleonic setting, or failing that, something to do with the austro-hungarian empire.

Well, as crazy as the government is in Canada, I'm glad that they're dealing with the REAL hard-hitting issues. Like beavers vs. polar bears. Incidently, I played MW3, and afterwards went on a massive shooting rampage, setting off chemical attacks in 3 major metropolitian areas, while kidnapping...

Simple. Don't. End of story.

Excellent outcome to an awful situation. This happened to a friend of mine a while back; he wound up selling the ring, and buying a sweet mountain bike instead. Now, he's happy, and has a sweet bike!
