I read this article, which says:
MW3 made more money than Avatar or Titanic did in five days
What is MW3's production budget (Is "production budget" the right phrase?)? And, how does it compare to Avatar and Titanic?
if Infinity Ward publicly publishes their finance declarations or something, then I guess we could maybe quote the site from wherever that is? But what is enough? Do we want Activision's publishing and marketing budget as well? It just feels like an off-topic random trivia question.
I assume the thought process behind questions like that is something like "Wikipedia doesn't have the answer and I can't find it on Google, but if someone knows it'll be the experts over on Stack Exchange".
Camera Mode is a new option in the Saints Row series that I'd like to have always on. Sometimes I run across something that happens quickly that I'd love to get a screencap of, but then I find that the Camera Mode has been disabled again.
I never manually disable Camera Mode. It seems to turn o...
The symbol is a medal (3 yellow cubes for gold, 2 grey for silver and 1 reddish for bronze).
The number is also how well you've been doing but Mode 7 had no time to tell me what determined it nor the medal. It seems to be different for each mission type and is not always consistent.
Also the high...
If one of your players gets a different squad loadout that gives then an unfair advantage, you may both agree to redo the match with (hopefully) fairer loadouts.
@icebrain We're having some issues with our current tournament, because I didn't define specific unit loadouts for each game, and some people are getting unfair advantages.
@GnomeSlice yeah, but you don't use them to get crates. If you have 2 or more of them it is a problem, but if you only get one of them you receive a lot of map control.
In the Jarl's quarters in Dragonreach (in Whiterun) is a map on a table with red and blue flags marking areas held by the Imperials and Stormcloaks.
I'm still early in the game, so is this map used for some purpose other than the ability to add those locations to your map, perhaps after choosin...
I've got some nice Dragonplate armour now and I was thinking about enchanting it with something nice. My enchantment skill is not maxed out though, so I will only be able to put some mediocre enchantments on the armour.
Can I put some weaker enchantment on it now and later, when I have better e...
> This game very accurately recreates the experience of taking too many drugs. The singular goal (a bed or toilet to vomit into) and the fear that explodes when one loses control, the delicate positioning in a straight line and thinking “I can do this…". Add this to the numinous associations of drug-taking and the fact that it made me feel very nauseated makes this a pretty apt (and the first, I assume) Saturday-Night-at-4am simulator.
yes, FS was developped from the program of those dancing plants, you know, so sometimes units react to music, same problem as in jurassic park with frogs

This is something that has always puzzled me since the release of diablo 2. What is the purpose of collecting ears? I know that if I kill someone in PvP I get an ear with their name attached to it. Do these offer any value or is it just a "treasure"?
Hello I am just wondering if it is ok to mix armors in the game? I mainly use heavy with a hood instead of a helmet but when doing Dark brotherhood missions I like to wear the light armor from them. Is that ok to do? does anyone else do this? and do I need to spec into a certain armor type or c...
There are several kinds of resistances in Skyrim: magic resistance, flame resistance, frost resistance and shock resistance.
Is the magic resistance essentially just resistance to all three elements, or are there magic damage types besides those three? And are all sources of flame, frost and sh...
If you want to buy a house in Skyrim, you need to become a Thane.
Whiterun's Thanehood comes with the first parts of the main quest and is relatively straight forward to get, but I've been having trouble attaining Thanehood in the other cities.
How do I become a Thane in Solitude, Windhelm, Rif...
Is there any reliable way to determine if a storage container in Skyrim is safe to store items in (as in, they won't disappear after a while)?
Somebody hinted towards the IsOwner console command in another question, but I fear it is not a valid suggestion, since it always seems to return " is no...
Each time I open TF2 I see the wonderful valve loading movie, I remember there was an option of --novideo for HL1 which used to remove it.
Any similar command line / preference I can use to disable it for Steam / TF2?
Modern Warfare 3 has this system for equipping a "Proficiency" on your weapons. Does this proficiency "stick" with the weapon after it has been dropped?
For instance, if I pick up a downed friend's weapon, and he was using the "Kick" proficiency, will my shots with that gun carry a reduction in...
I rescued a Stormcloak prisoner from some Imperial guards. The Stormcloak guy didn't even say much of a thanks (although I did choose the option to free him). Will freeing prisoners like this affect my standing in the game at all or is it pointless behaviour?
On the road to Whiterun I came across 3-4 guards escorting a Stormcloak prisoner. I killed the guards and freed the prisoner. Then a couple of seconds later a guard turned up and tried to arrest me, giving me three choices:
To pay a 40 gold fine
To go to prison
To resist arrest
I chose to pay...

As you can see in they are deep in the fog.

You can use "-novid" in for any Source game. To add it, right click on game and select properties. Then "Set Launch Options" and type in "-novid". This will skip the launch video.
The rightmost line of perks in the Enchanting constellation terminates with a perk called Soul Siphon, which causes your deathblows on creatures (but NOT people) to trap 5% of the victim. What does this mean? Does this require you to have an unused soul gem in inventory for it to work, and how do...
The Destruction skill tree's "Impact" perk (req: 40 skill) has the following description:
Most Destruction spells will stagger an opponent when dual cast.
Which, exactly, can stagger the target when dual cast?
Like in FF2, FF3 (DS/iOS) allows you to choose between equipping a weapon and a shield, or to equip two weapons. Is it ever worth it to choose a shield?
In FF2, it was often better to equip a shield than to equip two weapons, since your non-dominant hand did less damage anyway, and enemy attacks...

The only problem is that it is almost end of term, and I have Kirby and Lego Harry Potter and Skyward Sword to play, along with the other games I have that I haven't finished yet. XD I am not used to having more than one thing to play at at time XD
I have a PS3 and have never owned a Call of Duty game. Is it worth it to buy the new MW3 or will I be equally satisfied with one of the older award winning versions? I want to experience the single player game, but mostly I want to engage in multiplayer.
If you're recommending a previous version...
@Powerlord yeah, although I suggested the user modify his question to ask if the playing through the previous campaigns are essential for understanding the campaign of modern warfare 3.
I hear the Modern Warfare series has a very complex plot.
I'm trying to make a door to my undergound house. The minecart passes over a pressure plate and it starts some pistons, which then open a hidden door in the wall. But my problem is, while the sticky piston pulls the stone bricks normally, the minecart tracks stay. So, my track has a hole in it ev...
I've missed the chance to get the artifact that acts as a permanent black soul gem so I'm looking for them elsewhere.
Which merchants regularly sells black soul gems I can use?
At the end of the dungeon I've found a dwarven artifact that says I'm missing the current item to activate. I've went through the dungeon, but it is possible I've missed the triggering item. I didn't enter the dungeon on a quest or anything so that might be my problem.
Where/what do I need to us...
So it turns out crafting items (crafting kit, alchemy box, ingot press etc.) can be stacked, but I couldn't understand why would I ever want more than one of those. Is there any reason to hold on to spares, or should I just sell them?
