>Yes. Was it a colony? No, not in any defined meaning of that word. Since you only responded to one comment and not the numerous other points that were made by other posters, maybe you could provide these defined meanings you speak of. A

Good to see this formalised. In my jurisdiction paracetamol was more casually recommended.

You'd probably need to elaborate more before any advice here can be anything more than generic. But here's one bit of generic advice to think about. Things like being rated an "expert" by an arbitrary system may be usefu

Sort of. Despite the logo on the console, the BIOS/OS on the Dreamcast was in-house by SEGA. The Windows CE thing was an SDK developed my MS that was essentially a port of DirectX to the Dreamcast to give developers an option to utiliz

I'm still only halfway through the third one, I'm happy to get a continuation of the story but the controls and feel of the game feel so clunky compared to the first two. The first two had their own share of clunkiness but at leas

You could put together a strong argument that Dreamcast had a similar level of originality too. Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Powerstone, Samba Di Amigo, Seaman, Shenmue were all games that were risk taking because they didn't have much o

Yeah, lots of reactionary blasting of your comment from people who didn't realise your point was that in future, if the stocks aren't used, some smartass politician is going to be "see!?! we didn't need it! why should we
