Let me know if there's something unclear about it; What exactly is that you do not understand about the thread?

What does AAA stand for?

 

Allow me to quote Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAA_(game_industry)) for a great explanation

 

In the video game industry, AAA (pronounced "triple A") is a classification term used for games with the highest development budgets and levels of promotion. A title considered to be AAA is therefore expected to be a high quality game and to be among the year's bestsellers.

 

 

Cheers,

Linus

Sweet. I'm just antsy. On the mordor entry I managed to be the second entry. I'm hoping to win something this time around. I love skyrim! You're an awesome guy BTW.

I'm contractually obliged to say nothing if this rumor were arise.  :ph34r:

 

 

 

Animations and how a character interacts with the environment can make or break a game for me; And on these points, Skyrim was one of the worst games I have ever seen. I had to hold myself back as not to barf. I lasted less than 20 minutes before I turned it off for good.  :mellow:

What's wrong with the animations in skyrim?

 

Also....if you have half life 3......GIVE US THE PRECIOUS, PUT IT ON BIT TORRENT!

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

I have to wait to enter my name (~4hours atm), or do I have to do something else?

That is correct :)

 

Will there be another Call of Duty draw? I'm not really interested in saints row and don't want to enter my name for something somebody else wants.

 

The concept is awesome! If no CoD it's ok, I'll wait till February till the damn school gives me money.

Unfortunately, there is not going to be another Call of Duty among the yet-to-be announced games, sorry!

It's ok; I'll get it myself :) Awesome holiday spirit you have. Spending hundreds of dollars on random "people", I just can't understand the concept of that, or benefit. It's just psychological madness in my eyes. 

 

Anyway, great thing you're doing I guess!

Yup vanilla animations are absolute trash.  I've been rebuilding my load order on my new PC and barfing at how bad they are.  Thankfully once I get it up and running it'll be excellent.  Skyrim isn't Skyrim unless it's modded to Oblivion.  Heh bad pun there.  :P
