I'm fan of Generals but it supports campaigns for single user where Commandos supports campaigns for multi-player.
Do you know any real-time strategy game (just like Generals) supports multi-player campaigns?
This is going to be extremely vague, as I only barely remember anything about the game other than that it was awesome. I think it was a sidescrolling platformer, and I remember there was a set list of historical figures (it's possible you had to rescue them), including Marie Curie and Socrates (o...
@Wipqozn You around tonight? There's an interesting SC2 battle going on tonight at 11 PM EST (2 hours 15 minutes from now) where two bronze league players are going to fight while being coached by two diamond league players.
@Wipqozn I don't know, I had a second feeling telling me for some reason she might be 29, but my survival instinct for some reason suggested to pick a different number for his age.
@Wipqozn So, I feel like I am to blame for this, at least partly! I claimed that I wanted to eradicate all ITG questions but I haven't really done anything.
luckily you get it too while logged out, and it's just the Steam Community acting up.
(For posterity, it reads: "UNFORTUNATELY YOU CANNOT ACCESS THIS SERVER WITH A LIMITED OR VAC BANNED ACCOUNT OR IF YOU HAVE NOT SETUP YOUR COMMUNITY PROFILE YET.")
The A5 is benchmarking at roughly 7x the performance of the A4 in the iPhone 4. It's entirely reasonable that there's a performance reason for Siri being 4S only.
@badp There is one other possibility I've seen speculated about.
> Don’t forget that there’s a server/cloud-based backend that is required for Siri to function. I can’t help but suspect there’s some truth to this tweet from Mark Crump, speculating that Apple might be limiting Siri to the 4S simply to restrict the server load while the service is “beta”. There could be 100 million iOS 5 users by the end of this weekend; there will only be 1 or 2 million iPhone 4S users.
Meh, I don't care enough to continue arguing. I'll just say this move seems more marketing more than technical. Mind you, business are there to make money, so eh.
I guess Apple's run out of gadgets to add to the iPhones other than better internals.
Thanks for self-answering, the only thing I could come up with was the cameras on the iPad 2, since its lack gets in the way when Skype'ing with father.
@badp I can think of a few rabbits Tim could pull out of Steves hat. Even with the upgraded camera on the 4S, there's room for improvement there, and will be for some time to come.

I received the schematic for Apophis Fusion, which allows you increase your max health permanently by 11 points. You can craft this multiple times, but it appears one of the ingredients isn't real common: Desert Spore. I found 2 randomly in the Wasteland, and I believe I received 2 with the schem...
Before we had a family computer (in say 1997) I went to a friend's place and played a game which was called, MAYBE, "The Quest to Conquer the World", though it may have just been a sub-title or slogan and I have just forgotten the actual title.
All I remember about the gameplay is that it involv...

My summoner is still on a low level (10 currently) and I want to reach Level 20 as fast as possible to be able to buy tier 3 runes.

With the new title of the Heroes of Might and Magic series, they have re-titled the game (and all future games) to "Might and Magic Heroes: VI". I propose the tags heroes-might-magic-6 and heroes-might-magic-vi be changed to reflect this, with perhaps the current tags as tag synonyms for the new ...

I've recently started playing FFT: WotL on iOS, and learned from the wiki sites that the Bravery and Faith stats determine various important factors in combat (frequency of reaction commands, effectiveness of spells, etc) and how Ramza's "Steel" ability can raise someone else's Bravery, but the e...

so to submit better Italian translations to sourcemod I must sign up with alliedtranslators, file a bug on the sourcemod bug tracker and then wrestle with the current translator. Fun
@MartinSojka First off, they use mercurial. Also, their hg doesn't have translations. Indeed, it appears you have to grab translations from the translation server itself
@MartinSojka Yes, but still the data's just not there

@GnomeSlice Look at it this way, assume that it puts you and @Wipqozn on top an equal number of times, if you only see @Wipqozn on top, that means everyone else must only see you on top.
In Child of Eden each level gives you a number of stars at the end that I believe is entirely dependent on score (which is dependent on combos, rhythm, enemies killed, items collected, and perhaps time).
What are the score thresholds for the star ratings, for each level?
@Wipqozn Assuming SE is Pseudo-random like any good non-sentient entity should be, you will be on top exactly as often as everyone else with the same number of votes.

Hey, I thought images hosted on stack.imgur.com didn't expire.
There are three different difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Hard). What kinds of penalties/bonuses do they cause? For bonus points, how does the "Aggressive AI" option play into things?
Is there any way i can check what version (example:v1.0.2) a spesific game is on currently, via the steam client?

@sjohnston We had the sandwich punching question on Seasoned Advice that could've been off-topic, not-a-real-question, not constructive, and too-localized.
I'd link, but it's deleted, so I'll just post the text. It was entitled: What's the best way to punch a sandwich?, with the [food-science] and [sandwich] tags.

I left my cheese/raisin/anchovy/pickle sandwich unattended in the school cafeteria for about ten minutes while I changed into my uniform for band practice. When I returned, I found my sandwich smashed and surrounded by the splattered remains of its former contents. I was so mad, I pounded my fists on the table and accidentally spilled my milk into my tuba.
I think Roger, my worst enemy, did this to my sandwich. He eats a chicken sandwich every day, and I want to get my revenge on that cowardly little cannibal. I know that a well-placed blow could spray all of his friends with globs of mayo…
