Why should I get this game?
Why should I get this game? What do you like about this game? What are your favorite things to do in this game? Thinking about getting it for a steal today. Go!
Screw it, I'm gonna buy it anyway...feel free to answer my question anyway. :P
Way back in 2004 I bought this game for the gamecube. I played it for around 20 minutes and as a younger dumber version of myself, I wrote it off as a "kiddie" game. I returned it to Gamestop. Fast forward to 2011 and I see that it's on sale for 800MSP. I buy and play longer than 20 minutes. When I was done, I realized how stupid I was in 2004. This was easily one of the top 5 best games I have ever played. The mix of platforming, stealth, collecting, and story were amazing to me. I'm glad you bought it, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. And I've read rumors that a sequel is supposedly in the works, but those are just rumors.
The main reason to get this game is the story, nuff said
To be honest its a great game, pretty simple but the main reason i got it was simply because I remembered never being able to beat the last boss when i was a kid on ps2
Didn't play this back in the days, but luckily I bought it from marketplace for a ridiculous price (800 ms points), which makes it my best buy ever. The story is captivating and well told, the characters are personal, which makes the story both funny and sad (quite rare in videogames). Camera angles causes sometimes problems, but that's no reason not to buy this game. I hope the sequel will come out someday...
Pig on human action is good. The game feels so much like an action adventure game you wish you could find more often in what feels like a boring genre. But mostly pig on human.
This is by far one of the greatest "unknown gems" to have ever been released. To me this is on the same level as the TV show "Firefly". Both need sequels NOW!
Better question to ask is "why shouldn't you get this game"
everyone should, even if you have a copy of the original version like myself. It KICKS ASS
Great storyline, a mixed gameplay and original characters - both adventure and action.
I really enjoyed the game, and recommend it to everyone.

UNPLUGGED Flickr Pickr: beneath the layers
Location: All over the place
Everybody's favourite trees are blooming pink all over the city but this black and white image caught my eye today. We're so used to seeing photos of the bright pink blossoms but it's really kind of awesome to see something so familiar in a slightly different way.
Thanks, Kissarissa!
Also, I thought I'd have a little fun with V.I.A.'s very first app, Eyes On The World, which you can download for free right HERE.
I hope you don't mind the edit, Kissarissa.
It's that point in your consciousness where you can feel at one with nature, escaping the trappings of the day-to-day to an almost dream-like place where nothing else seems to exist besides you and your natural surroundings. It is our opinion here at VIA that Vancouver holds a unique place in the civilized world in that reaching this state often requires no more effort than simply pulling off to the side of the road, pocketing your keys and taking a few steps into the forest

Pac 10
Bests, Worsts, and CFN's Team MVP
of the Year
Daymeion Hughes, Sr. California
mostly for picking off passes, Hughes
was also a solid tackler making plays
like a safety. Of course, it's the eight
interceptions that made him the star,
and the reputation that kept most teams
from throwing at him. He was decent
against the USC passing game and even
did a solid job of getting into the
backfield, but his big performance was
against Arizona State picking off two
passes for 63 yards and a score while
getting in on eight tackles.
Player of the Year -
Marshawn Lynch, RB California
Even though he had to share carries and
plays with all the other Bear offensive
stars, Lynch was still tremendous
highlighted by a two week span against
the Washington teams rushing for 302
yards and four scores in the two games.
He averaged 6.13 yards per carry while
leading the Pac 10 with 1,245 yards with
1,657 yards of total offense. Also a
strong receiver and kick returner, he
did a little of everything well
throughout the year.

In his book, "The Kingdom Within," John Sanford tells about a well at an old farmhouse in New Hampshire where his family spent their summers. For many years, the house did not have modern plumbing or electricity; all the water came from the well outside the front door. The water was unusually clear and cool, and the well never ran dry, even during the hottest summers when other families had to haul water from a nearby lake.

STEPHANOPOULOS: You were also tough on him in places of your book. I want to show our viewers some of it. You talked about the 1992 campaign, where you said that Clinton's gestures towards disaffected Reagan Democrats could seem clumsy and transparent -- whatever happened to Sister Souljah? -- or frighteningly cold-hearted, allowing the execution of a mentally retarded death row inmate to go forward on the eve of an important primary. And then in 1996, you told the Cleveland Plain-Dealer, "the Clintons' campaign is fascinating to a student of politics. It's disturbing to someone who cares about certain issues."
And you seemed to be repeating some of this, these charges about that brand of politics in your speech last night.
Do you think there is a pattern here?
OBAMA: Well, George, first of all, the excerpts that you read, as I think you'll acknowledge, were sandwiched in an entire page of complimenting Bill Clinton for the work that he did. But...
STEPHANOPOULOS: As you just repeated now.
OBAMA: Yes. But there is no doubt that I think that in the '90s, we got caught up in a slash-and-burn politics that the American people are weary of. And we still see it in Washington today. It is very hard for us to have a common sense, non-ideological conversation about how we're going to deal with our energy problems. It's very difficult for us to figure out how are we going to make this economy work for all people and not just some people.
Now, that is not the Clintons' fault. It is all of our faults, in the sense that we've gotten into these bad habits and we can't seem to have disagreements without being disagreeable.
So part of what I think we have to do is to set a new tone in politics. Not a naive one. The insurance companies, the drug companies, they're not going to give up their profits easily when it comes to health care. The oil companies like writing the energy bills, and they have a clear agenda. But it does mean that we have to reduce the interests -- or the influence of special interests and lobbyists. I think that we've got to take ethics reform seriously. I think that we all have some responsibilities in terms of focusing on how we're going to solve problems for the American people.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Let's talk about the economy. The immediate economic crisis going forward right now, the housing crisis specifically. Senator Clinton has called on a 90-day freeze on home foreclosures, and freezing the rates for five years on adjustable rate mortgages. Is that a good idea?
OBAMA: Well, what I've said is that we should put forward a $10 billion fund to focus on helping families that are in their homes that have been induced into mortgages that they can't pay, but who are willing to pay the current rates that they have. And I think that is an approach that most observers recognize will prevent the kind of moral hazards where speculators or lenders who made bad loans somehow are bailed out.
But I think that the problem goes beyond just the immediate crisis of home foreclosures.
OBAMA: What we have is a situation in which, over the last decade, there has been -- the rewards of the economy have all gone to the top 1 percent.
We've seen people who are wealthy, flush with cash, huge amounts of capital, that have been feeding the real estate bubble, the dotcom bubble. But what we haven't seen are ordinary people's incomes and wages going up significantly.

A criminal judgment was entered against the debtor for money laundering, mail fraud, possession of unauthorized access devices, and conspiracy to launder funds while subject to a release order. Thereafter, the Department audited the debtor and discovered that his tax returns significantly under-reported his criminal income. The debtor later initiated an adversary proceeding seeking a determination that his tax debt owed to the Department was discharged in his chapter 7 bankruptcy case. At trial, the debtor testified that his reported income had no relation to his actual income, and was aimed only at avoiding detection of his criminal enterprise. The court held that the debtor both filed a fraudulent return and willfully attempted to evade or defeat a tax and excepted the Department's debt from discharge under section 523(a)(1)(C).
Debtors were the sole members of an LLC which operated a cocktail lounge. Plaintiff sought to purchase the LLC from the debtors, however, when the loan process was delayed, the parties decided to transfer a 38% interest in the LLC to the plaintiff in exchange for an $84,200 investment, with the expectation that the remaining interest would be transferred once the loan was approved. The relationship between the parties quickly deteriorated and ultimately, the remaining interest was never transferred. The debtors, as majority members, voted to cease business operations shortly after the partial transfer, causing plaintiff to lose his investment, as well as causing him to become personally liable for breach of the business lease. The plaintiff sought a determination that the debt owed to him was nondischargeable under § 523(a)(6). The court dismissed the complaint finding that there was no willful and malicious intent to injure on the part of the defendants.
Creditor obtained relief from stay during debtors' chapter 13 case and sold the collateral securing debtors' loan resulting in a deficiency balance of over $15,000. Debtors subsequently completed their plan and were granted a discharge. Creditor then initiated an adversary proceeding seeking a determination that the deficiency balance was a nondischargeable debt under § 1328(c)(1). The court held that it was a long term debt, but that the debtors' plan did not provide for it under § 1322(b)(5) such that it would be a nondischargeable debt under § 1328(c)(1). Creditor never objected to the debtors' chapter 13 plan, nor did it timely file a proof of claim for the deficiency balance after sale. The court denied creditor's motion for summary judgment and dismissed the complaint.
Creditor was denied summary judgment and sec. 523(a)(3)(A) cause of action against chapter 7 debtors was dismissed. Although creditor had not received notice of bankruptcy in time to file a timely proof of claim in asset case, it had knowledge of bankruptcy case in time to file a tardy proof of claim and fully participate in the distribution under sec. 726(a)(2)(C), but chose not to do so.
In re Tekavec, 476 B.R. 555(August 2012) -- Judge Kelley
Partially secured short term home equity line of credit could be crammed down under § 1322(c)(2), even though the initial term of the agreement was extendable and renewable at the option of the creditor.
Creditor objected to debtors' discharge under §§ 727(a)(2), (4), and (5) based primarily on debtors' conversion of cash into an exempt IRA, and on debtors' termination of a collateral assignment agreement resulting in a loan to an insider becoming unsecured, shortly before filing. Following a trial, the court ruled that such acts were done on the advice of counsel and without an actual intent to defraud, and granted the debtors a discharge.
Creditor's motion for summary judgment seeking an order requiring the marshaling of assets, namely by requiring another bank to liquidate the real property mortgaged by non-debtors prior to executing on the real property mortgaged by the chapter 12 debtors, in which creditor also had a secured interest, was denied.
Chapter 13 debtors objected to mortgagee's secured claims. Error in description of mortgage caused it to be indexed outside chain of title, resulting in a voidable lien. Reversed: Bank of New York Mellon Trust Co. v. Debtors, Case No. 12-C-846 (E.D. Wis. Jan. 15, 2013) (holding search of tract index is not sufficient for a purchaser to be considered in good faith and without notice)
The debtors operated a business through a limited liability company, which borrowed money from the defendants. The note was not personally guaranteed by either of the debtors. After the debtors filed bankruptcy and received a bankruptcy discharge, the defendants learned of the debtors' bankruptcy. They subsequently filed a lawsuit in state court, which was ultimately voluntarily dismissed as to the debtors. They also made numerous attempts to collect the debt through both texts and voicemails directed at the debtors. The debtors then filed an adversary proceeding against the defendants for willful violation of the discharge injunction. After trial, the court dismissed the adversary proceeding because the demands for payment did not involve a debt due by the debtors personally to the defendants, so such debt was not a debt which was discharged in the debtors' personal bankruptcy. The court stated that the debtors may have a claim for harassment, but that such a claim does not belong in the bankruptcy court.
Order imposing $5,000 sanction on Attorney Emory H. Booker, III for violating the Bankruptcy Code and Rules through his provision of unbundled bankruptcy services.

British Infantryman vs German Infantryman: Somme 1916
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreThis engaging study pits the volunteers of Kitchener's 'New Armies' against the German veterans who defended the Somme sector in the bloody battles of July-November 1916. The mighty struggle for the Somme sector of the Western Front in the second half of 1916 has come to be remembered for the dreadful toll of casualties inflicted on Britain's 'New Armies' by the German defenders on the first day of the offensive, 1 July. The battle continued, however, throughout the autumn and only came to a close in the bitter cold of mid-November. The British plan relied on the power of artillery to suppress and destroy the German defences; the infantry were tasked with taking and holding the German trenches, but minimal resistance was anticipated. In the event the defences were damaged but not destroyed, and small numbers of defenders, many of whom had garrisoned the Somme sector for many months and knew the ground well, inflicted appalling casualties on the British attackers. Both sides incurred major losses, however; German doctrine emphasised that the first line had to be held or retaken at all costs, a rigid defensive policy that led to very high casualties as the Germans threw survivors into ad hoc, piecemeal counterattacks all along the line.

Grant funding helping racial cohesion
HOUNSLOW'S Asian and African Youth Association (HAAYA) held a week-long team building exercise last week, bringing together youngsters from six different ethnic groups including Eritreans, Pakistanis, Bengalis and Somalis, thanks to a grant from the Council's Community Cohesian Fund.
The association was one of six to receive funding for projects aimed at improving community relations across the borough.
The aim of the grant is to provide small scale funding to encourage local community activities that promote integration, and to offer support for voluntary organisations who want to deliver community cohesion projects.
Suhel Miah, Personal Advisor at HAAYA, said "The exercise was very successful in bringing community cohesion. One of the great strengths was the effect of having such a large group from so many diverse ethnic origins begin to really get to know each other. They were taught the importance of working as a cohesive team."
Councillor Amrit Mann, Hounslow's Executive Member for Promoting Community Cohesion, said: "Community cohesion is about the development of strong, positive relationships between people from different backgrounds in the workplace, in schools and within neighbourhoods, and where cultural diversity is valued.
"We are encouraging different communities to get together and understand one another, and the Community Cohesion Fund is a positive step towards bringing these projects to life. This not only breaks stereotypes, but helps communities to articulate their concerns about community issues."
Another organisation that benefited from council funding was 'Dituria' an organisation of the Kosovan/Albanian community, which was able to hold a cross-culture sporting day with 350 people participating in the event.
Ruzhdi Jata said: "We played traditional games including 'Dibra Costell' - passing of hats from the Kosovan and Albanian communities, and popular games from Somalia."

There you are. It's been a while, much as happened since I last wrote - from a messy blur of train rides, sleep, unpacking of belongings, work and a not-so-nice break-up. Can you really believe we're at the end of January already?!
As you may have gathered, it's not been an easy few months, but instead of dwelling on the past I'm keen to make 2015 the year of me! I love blogging, I love all the lovely people that read it and the great sense of community that comes with it. So, throwing myself whole heartedly into it again after too much time away...
I've moved into my new flat, I've got holidays booked in with friends, and life is pretty fun right now! I'm making the most of a situation I never thought I'd be in. I think we can always surprise ourselves with our resilience to horrible situations, especially when we realise how strong our support networks can be. My friends have been fantastic, and I can't wait to share our adventures with you!
Considering I wasn't up to blogging near new year - what better way to kick off a year of posts with some resolutions? This year is, after all, a blank piece of paper, a clean slate!
What are your resolutions for this year - have you already broken them?

"This was my first time renting a vacation rental. I usually like to do the high end hotel thing. the owner was very nice and informative throughout the whole experience. She even sent me websites to things to do in the area and explained the ski show schedule. I was worried we wouldn't have something that we needed in the kitchen or to occupy the kids, but it was exactly like she said it would be. The house was real clean and comfoortable. I think this was one of the nicest vacations we have had as a family. Grandma and Grandpa got to come and so did our little dog. My daughter loved the toys and puzzles that were at the house and the shallow water was perfect for a 4 year old. We wanted to make our trip longer but the house was all booked up. We will make sure to book early next year if we can get the time off work. A nice experience,indeed."Guest: Happy Non-camper Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: January 21, 2015View listing
"The house was lovely. Loved all the pictures of the castles and Ireland. Beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were so nice. Luxury bathroom upstairs. This place has everything you could want in a vacation house. Beautiful setting. As somebody else mentioned, lots of stairs, but so worth it. The stairs lead you to the lake where there is a nice boat house with separate patio. At least it was a picturesque stairway. The lake was great. The kids never ran out of things to do. The only complaints I had were the scary steep driveway and the bricks that lead into the lake. They looked nice, but a little slippery at the water's edge. A little sandy beach would make it perfect! Both were not a big deal considering all this place had to offer! Hot tub was very clean and we used it often. We hope to go back for sure! The kids cried about having to leave!"Guest: Britsbunch Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: September 14, 2014View listing
"Our family stayed here for a full week and it flew by with everything you could want in a lake house it was just a question of what to do next. Beach, water pad, hot tub, fire pit, trampoline, kayak, canoe, beautiful patio and furniture. The furnishings and finishes of this home are extremely high quality and everything you need is right there. Besides a great house and a great setting right on the lake you are very close to town making dinner out or shopping a breeze. We brought our boat and some nights took it over to the restaurant on the lake. This place is just top notch in every way. I have rented at least a dozen houses on lakes or for golf get togethers and this house is the nicest from top to bottom. We will definitely be back."Guest: Colin Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 19, 2014View listing

Howdy howdy howdy, Wikians!
Today we're (choo-choo!) hopping on the mobile train. We have mobile app news and features to share. And oh my goodness these apps are incredibly popular.
Wikia released the first five Community Apps in November of 2013. Simple premise: Wikians produce high-quality, engaging content, and apps are a good way collect and organize content for viewers. Since then, we've released over 100 iOS apps and more than 80 Android apps, with no end in sight. Combined, these apps surpassed one million monthly active users a couple months ago.

Wikia's a big place with a big platform underpinning it. Have you ever seen a list of all the extensions that exist on Wikia? It is impressively long, and I'll admit, somewhat confusing. I remember seeing it on my first day working here - I tried to parse it, but instead made a face and pouted.
An easy explanation for this is that we want the community to have access to as many curation and development tools as reasonably possible, but there's another reason, too: Wikia has been around for quite a while (in Internet Time, anyway) and the platform has never stopped expanding.
Between new coding techniques, updated user interface standards, and flashier devices, sometimes we have to make decisions about how to proceed from a product perspectiv…Read more >

Hey Wikians,
I recently joined the Community Support Team at Wikia, and I'll be helping you with your problems and answer any questions you might have.
Just like Andrea, who takes care of the German Wikia community, I grew up in Germany and live in the US now. I'm here to help out all English-speaking users. Before joining Wikia, I worked for a career network called e-fellows.net in Munich. There, it was my job to take care of the online forum and community, a group of about 50,000 students and graduates.
Obviously, Wikia has a much larger number of users and many communities on different topics. Two of my personal favorites are the Game of Thrones and the Lord of the Rings communities – you see, I like dragons, swords and medieval stuff! Bac…

A little while ago, Sannse discussed all of the ways you can work on a wikia without admin rights. Today I want to talk about what happens when you've done that and you are ready to take the next step and become an admin. If there is an active admin then you will need to talk to that person (tips and hints for that found in another of Sannse's excellent blogs here). But what if there is no administrator currently working on the wikia? In that case, the solution is to adopt the wikia.
What does "adopting a wikia" mean? It means that you volunteer to help take care of the wikia and build it into something better. You will get administrator and bureaucrat tools so you can customize the appearance, delete spam, block vandals, and promote other …Read more >
Hello Wikians,
My name is ForestFairy and I am the German Community Manager for Wikia. Some of you may know me a little bit, because I do answer some english support requests from time to time. I work closely with my english community colleagues, but you probably won't see me around here very often. However, I am part of Wikia's social blog team and today I get to write a blog for both the English and the German community. As you can imagine, we have the same issues over there as you do over here. Today I am talking about a common nuisance: Trolls!
A Troll is someone that you can meet everywhere on Wikia and in the internet. A troll's purpose is to simply provoke you. When they comment or edit, it will usually not have anything to do with th…

So here's the problem. You've found a fascinating wikia, just ripe for growth, and you're raring to go. But for some reason or other, it's not eligible for adoption. Maybe the admin is almost active and had edited in the last month. Or you haven't been on the wikia long enough to be eligible. Or maybe you just aren't ready to adopt yet.
But even without being an admin, there are lots of things you can do to help the wikia, and maybe get ready for adoption.
The first thing I would do is look to see who else is on the wikia. There are two good ways to do this. One is to go to Special:RecentChanges, your one-stop shop for wikia information. This is one of the most important pages on the wikia, and If you can master reading this, you will be a wik…Read more >
Hello Wikians! This week you'll start to see something new at the top of article pages — buttons for sharing your community's work via social media.
These options will make it easier for both editors and readers to get your wikia's expertly-crafted content out into the wider fan universe for your topic. Comments, likes, reblogs, and retweets can indicate how useful and relevant a page is for others. Some of those readers might even come visit and make some contributions of their own!
We're especially excited to add sharing options for Reddit and Tumblr, and we'll be adding language/region-specific buttons for non-English users in the coming weeks.

Hey everybody, in last year's article layout prototype, we tested out a number of different things and we got a lot of feedback that has been instrumental in how we're going to try and move forward. The prototype helped us learn some important things about what works and what doesn't (for example, removing the right rail was fairly disruptive). We are still going to move forward with gradual enhancements to article layout, but our plan is to focus on specific aspects of the layout one by one. This process is similar to how we updated the global navigation in January, but it will take a longer time to get all the changes to article layout out there.

The Pirate Lafitte and the Battle of New Orleans
Jean Lafitte left behind many a legend for generations to follow in thepages of Louisiana history. Treasure hunters still speculate about the site ... Show synopsis Jean Lafitte left behind many a legend for generations to follow in thepages of Louisiana history. Treasure hunters still speculate about the site ofpirated loot buried under French Quarter homes or sunk in the Barataria swamps.His notorious reputation was born of tales like these of the blacksmith andsuspect pirate. But regardless of whatever the storytellers may repeat, thereis one legend that does survive the test of authenticity, the story of how JeanLafitte and his men were heroes at the Battle of New Orleans against theinvading British forces during the War of 1812.In The Pirate Lafitte and the Battle of New Orleans, authorRobert Tallant has given younger readers a chance to relive the excitement, romance, and thrill of those days when the Barataria pirates threatened rivertraffic and New Orleans felt the threat of seige by the British. Thisenthralling story from the pages of history is delightfully told with anemphasis on helping children understand the political events of the time aswell as the social climate of the city in the early-nineteenth century.The story reveals the speculative past of Lafitte and how he hid behind thefacade of his blacksmith's shop in the Vieux Carr . He held bittercontempt for his enemy Governor Claiborne until that famous battle, in whichthe pirate-turned-hero joined Gen. Andrew Jackson to protect the city from theincoming assault of British soldiers. Combining tales of pirates, mystery, battle, true events, and real people, this children's book is a thrillingchapter in American history.Robert Tallant (1909-1957) was one of Louisiana's best-known authors, andparticipated in the WPA Writers Project during the 1930s and 1940s. BesidesMardi Gras . . . As It Was, Tallant also wrote Voodoo in NewOrleans and The Voodoo Queen . With Lyle Saxon and EdwardDreyer he coauthored the famous collection Gumbo Ya-Ya: Folktales ofLouisiana .

1851-O Double Eagle, AU551851-O $20 AU55 PCGS. Given the importance of steamship travel during the 1850s coupled with New Orleans' eminence as the "Queen of the Mississippi Delta" during this crucial era of economic development and industrialization, it comes as no great surprise that the O-mint gold coins of this decade usually show signs of circulation far and wide. This is certainly the case with the typical 1851-O double eagle, the second year of the new series from New Orleans. The average certified coin -- the top end of all survivors, beyond doubt -- is a bit better than Choice XF. This Choice AU example shows plenty of mint luster remaining, and light field chatter rather than major marks account for the grade. The surfaces display a decent strike and attractive yellow-gold color. Population: 33 in 55, 20 finer (9/13).(Registry values: N1793) (NGC ID# 268J, PCGS# 8905)

I am getting a render error about after every 10th or so render, where it just says, "an error occurred" and then I cannot render anymore from that point on. I can do other thing, and I can save, but when I close Carrara it says Runtime Error! application crashed. I have to restart to get renders working again.
Are there logs that I can provide or something?
