Nitpicker? Are you suggesting that you actually made a LOGICAL ARGUMENT back there, hence I'm guilty of "nitpicking" it? What kind of a fucking dipshit are you?Praxis wrote:No duh. I wanted a grammar nazi image, but that's all I had available.

The reason "spelling nazis" are reviled is that too many of them are like Maddox. They think they can refute something by pointing out a typo in it, which is in fact a fallacy. That doesn't mean that shitty spelling or grammar are OK, moron.

"Officially" it's finished. It's not actually finished, because Lucasarts didn't want to wait until it was finished and miss the christmas sales rush on the Xbox version (though that was probably self defeating, coming as it did only a month after the release of Halo 2, and sitting well within it's shadow. I don't recall KOTOR2 ever setting the sales charts afire).Lord Revan wrote:officially it is finished IIRC (sure it's sucky and/or hurried finish with alot of loose threads, but an end none the less).DPDarkPrimus wrote:Don't they have to finish the second game first?
In reality, there's actually a fairly large amount of content left on the cutting room floor (some of it's even on the disc, in the form of script and voice files), amounting to a whole other planet and pretty much all the denouement of all the character development throughout the game.
Is there a way, or how do I, get to these files? I was so disappointed with the game, I would like to increase that by hearing what might have beenVendetta wrote:"Officially" it's finished.

I dunno about you, but I make the weirdest typing mistakes ever. Words that sound the same, but have nothing in common in meaning. I look at it and literally think, "How did that happen? That's not right at all." I don't look at the keys when I type, sometimes I don't really look at the screen either. I usually just sound it out in my head and let my fingers move. Somehow my fingers sometimes write the sound instead of the word. I'm telling you it happens, and I know because it happens to me (though rarely). And it can't be illiteracy because I know it's wrong. That's why I proofread.Edi wrote:Bullshit. If you know what you're going to intend to say, you know what you're going to type, and trying to change typing in the middle of the process to use some completely different if phonetically similar thing actually requires more active concentration on several things at once and slows you down far more than typing the correct stuff would (especially since the keys are placed in different parts of the keyboard). Hence, anybody who types or writes "could of" instead of "could have" is a fucking illiterate moron who doesn't know proper English.
The OP might not have known it was wrong, in fact that's the most likely scenario by far. I'm just pointing-out it's not the only possibility.

Yes, but it's a DS title; it won't look as pretty as a full on console one would look.Spanky The Dolphin wrote:Isn't that what we're getting with Phantom Hourglass?Praxis wrote:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

And yes, I've played the game, several times. It looks gorgeous for a DS game.

In any case, it was originally intended to be a game set in the Deus Ex universe, but after the fiasco that was Deus Ex 2 they decided not to have it under the same banner.
