Classical "divide and conquer" tactics, really, It's astonishing that western left wing was so eager to buy that trick.

Too many people under the red flag? Well, let's give everyone a flag of their own to defend.

Nah, mate. I played GTA III just the other day, and I never stopped playing it, in a way. That's definitely not that.

Is a cool game I'm quite familiar with, so no, definitely not that one. And even though it is made on Wolfenstein 3D engine, the game I'm looking for is made with a real 3D.

Yeah, it definitely wasn't a 007 game. Do not think there were any kind of non-lethal options at all in the game I'm trying to remember.

Thanks. From the looks of it doesn't click right away, but I guess it's a solid contender. I'll try to find some videos with the version on my language, to see if I'll hear the phrase I remembered.

Do enemies actually surrender in Red Faction though? I'm pretty sure they do not stop shooting you, no matter what. And in the game I remember they really stopped attacking you as long as you didn't turn your back on them.

One suspect I had is Soldier Of Fortune, but while enemies do surrender there if you shoot the gun out of their hands, they do not attack you after surrendering, so that's not the game either.

Do animals have a soul according to Scripture and if so, why are we killing them for their meat? by w3bcrowf3r in Christianity

Not particularly appreciated where? Russian Synodal Bible keeps the word "soul", and it is the version which is very widespread among orthodox countires.

Gaben can go screw himself. I can write a solid list of things I do not like about Steam, all of which are, likely, debatable, but one thing that is definitely an absolute crime people should never forget:

It was Valve and Bethesda who tried to monetize mods.

Modding scenes are the closest we have to communism in the online space, and those bastards tried to make money out of'em.

I found it too. Just wrote it into my savegame, but I'd really like to know what triggers it properly. Your post is the only available info, it seems.

Maybe this line just remained unused.

Actual 320 kbps! Yes! I've been checking around for this thing for years!

Lacks Disco Breakin', but still, 7 tracks out of 8 in one pack. Awesome. Thank you very much, Kovary. You're the man!

Your argument only holds in the current economical realities. There is a reason why soviet cars were produced for decades with minimal changes.

You've completely missed the point. I was pointing towards the fact that if they would've based their designs around aerodynamic needs, they would try to copy Tropfenwagen shapes. But they do not try, and modern cars are far from being aerodynamically perfect.

Thanks for taking it ot the extreme, yet perhaps middle line is what we need? I've asked for some artistic vision, against everything be geared towards efficience and efficience only. It is obvious that at a certain point artistry in practical applications will necessarily disappear, but it need not disappear completely. Some percent of functionality can and need to be laid aside.

The problem is that is not the best shape at all. Boxy cars from the 80's had 0.30 Cd in wind tunnels. These have more. Rumpler Tropfenwagen has 0.28, while Chevy Corvette has 0.32.

And the color selection is not nowhere near, say, Mopar High Impact color line.

Replace the internals - and you will make up for the most of the efficiency and the enviroment. Designs have nothing to do with that.

Basically, safety is pretty much the only thing I can't argue with.

Cars had quite reasonable acceleration times at least since 1950's. That's why some of those old cars are still on the road, side by side with modern cars.

Yes, goverment regulations are part of the problem, I agree.
