Well for me both of these games are some of the very first if not the first FPS games I ever played around 1997. I played on a HP Pavilion with on-board AMD graphics in software rendered mode. I paid over $3000.00 for that hunk of store bought PC and it never died in fact I donated it about 7 years ago still working. Also installed my first AGP graphics card (Voodoo II 3000) in it about 6 months after buying it. God what great memories starting a demo download on 56k and waking up at 2-3 AM to play them.

It's got a pretty cool voice over that sounds like a more insane Vincent Price!

EA will protect it's customer base from the bad hacky community that is Linux. Do they realize how stupid they sound?

I still don't see my beloved Centipede Recharged from Atari on here...runs like poo poo on Linux. To be honest it is a bit flake on Windows too.

Yeah I just started getting into the Sniper Elite series this year. Lots of fun hours playing co-op with my son in Sniper Elite 5. A little later I grabbed Sniper Elite 4 as well.

Glad to hear it I bought this about a month ago and it really is fun.

I don't know if there is some type of obvious algorithm that developers can use to decide when an object should be modeled with squares or triangles? Having to make these decisions during development seems like a easy way to go freaking insane. It is obvious that not everything is a square in this game, but I think it looks kinda fun.

Yep the older I get, the more life I experience, the more I read and research the more I realize that America is not the land of the free. It is the land of the most persistent and the those with the most resources. The average American is preyed upon by corporations about 10 times a day.

1.) Century Link signed me up for $65.00 Internet for life. Then they just started charging me more and would not fix the issue. They have actually been fined by the feds for doing this in the past and they are doing it again. Thankfully Google is installing fiber on my street and they have not changed their prices in well over a decade. I will soon be saying goodbye to Centurylink, but I am one of the lucky few who will be able to.

2.) Health services are very costly for the average American family. You either have a great job or a lot of money or it hurts financially. Health insurance providers are for profit companies and they plan for it to cost us more then it does them.

3.) The cost of running a car down the road is astronomical. It isn't just the cost of the original purchase. It is the cost of the maintenance, the fuel, the insurance, the registration and the taxes.

4.) YouTubers are getting copyright strikes for playing/promoting films and music which actually falls under Fair Use, but companies have lawyers and you don't. So when you get a strike you are likely going to fold if you don't have an attorney on retainer. If YouTube is a significant income stream for you or your only income stream this is going to be potentially devastating. Some YouTubers have agreed to permanently give up monetization for certain videos to copyright holders without a fight because they can't afford to fight.

5.) Corporations have managed to twist American law to benefit them, when the law should exist to always protect the people. Corporations should always have to prove something before being able to take action. They have the resources and they are not people so the burden should always fall on them. A guy playing 14 seconds of a song and praising a band does not hurt that company in any possible way.

6.) Workers in the food industry expect customers to supplement their wages with tips. They expect this because employers are not required to properly compensate their staff because compensation with tips has actual codified laws.

Sorry to go off.
