Nope I said the world and it stands. Ubisoft only had Splinter Cell as competition. Speaking of which...isn't Ubisoft a multinational company since they have offices all over the world?

Are we judging where a company is from based on where they started, or where their current offices are located?

In that case, doesn't SE have an office in Los Angeles? SE is American!

Majority of players outside of NA for Halo are from JP and EU so if they play then that's not the 100% vote.

It's all about the number of sales not the ratio of the population:percantage that plays.

Y do that? Rocstar started as an English company. Plus we have Bungie which dominated the world twice over with one game.


The world ? You mean NA. Halo is pure ***. Only NA players are really fan of this game, maybe a bit in Europe too (well UK are just the same anyway).

Japanese don't give a *** about Halo also, so no, not the world. (chinese too while we're at it).


I agree, halo is ***.

ID software owns FPS and games like farcry are great too.

also duke nukem 3d with the high res pack is the ***

They have office all over the world, still the "Worldwide HQ" is located in France, and the company is also born there.

Just like SE Main HQ is located in Japan. While the EU HQ is a part of a subsidiary Square Enix Europe.

IDK..ID owns only because of Doom and Wolfenstein being the first true FPS, but I still bow to Ubi since I'm a fan of the Ghost Recon series. Ubi in the long run put out more quality games than any other company I follow.

I liked AC, but after awhile it got dull when it's the repeated button pushing for the combos.

I'm mainly a console FPS fan so that's why I talk greatly about Ghost Recon.

AC is good but it has no replay value. Cant wait for AC2 though. Just want the story since the game's replay value is probably going to be like the first.

its safer to drive on the left.

hell everyone used to drive on the left, the only reason people first switched to the right was because A) to be different from England and B) Napoleon's influence.

basically we started on the left so you could easily grab your sword with your right arm to kill any dodgy people coming the other way.

the only time its safer to switch from left to right is when countries over the border do it so people driving in the other countries are crashing a lot due to it.

for Australia and surrounding countries its just pointless.
England won't chance because we don't want to follow old enemy France and japan won't change because of china, the others might but the cost to change is so high they don't take the decision lightly.

btw England doesn't fully use the metric system
distance is still in miles here, milk in pints
height in feet and inches
everything else seems to be metric however

I'm French Canadian (Quebec), and I was taught the metric system in school because it was apparently the right thing to do, back in the 80s. However, my parents kept using that other system with the weird name so now if I need to measure things, I use some kind of measurement device, and it's a pain. I don't even understand my girlfriend's measurements ;_;

Speaking of which, she is studying Graphic Design and they're using those impossible to understand US measurements with Adobe Illustrator and it pisses us off because it makes no sense to teach us something in high school and then use the opposite in college. What the hell? Is this only happening in Canada? I certainly hope so, for the sake of the planet :/

Just thought I'd share.


Yes measureing is hard. Counting 1, 2, 3,... 9 is difficult. I feel your pain cause i to am a *** moron.

The other way of looking at it, if it wasn't for Americans reluctance to get involved then it would have been over sooner, thus saving millions of lives. But this is a topic that could go down him very fast.
U.S. was in the war long before the events of Pearl Harbor and before it "officially" declared war on Japan, who do you think supplied Britain w/ war logistics aside from itself (ammunition, war vehicles, etc)? Who do you think placed an embargo on Japan in response to its invasion of China?


It's so easy for the rest of the world to bad mouth the United States of America, pointing out little problems, even though every country has them. So.. eff the rest of the world!! WOOOO (except those starving kids with aids in africa ; ; we need to help them)

Should see it here in central Australia. Abo's trade their 6 year old daughters for the night so they can get some beer. African kids would walk 4 hours to school and back. Aboriginals wont walk 5 minutes or catch a bus to school. Quite frankly they need to be round up and shot. And if you knew them, you'd agree.
