Ok, as some of you maybe aware, i'm writing some reviews of anime shows.

Now heres the thing, i want to encourage some people to watch some of the anime and understand how i feel (along with writing the review). Case in point cowboy bebop.

I was hoping to provide a link to a website that you can watch it for free online similar to the likes of Youtube.

Is this strictly ok?

Probably not, but am i allowed to add a link to it?

I hate Far Cry 2.... Biggest let down i've bought game wise. I don't know what's wrong with it, i just don't like it. Anyway, i'd say posting links is ok. Can't be any worse than youtube. There's whole movies posted in parts on youtube, and if that's not copyright infringement, i don't know what is. Then again, Youtube hasn't got its priorities right. It lets you post whole movies up (in parts) but removes copyrighted music tracks?! Makes me laugh...

They still do it to any videos i've uploaded, or my mates have. Youtube have put me right off with that. It's not like you earn money from youtube videos, but rather spread the popularity of the music, so i don't see why it's a copyright breach. The song will be all over the internet for public consumption anyway. I hate WMG... and Far Cry :P

Far cry 2 was like what STALKER would have been if it was refined by a decent developer.

Admittedly it ran out of steam at the end, and the constant Guard posts and random people trying to kill you got annoying, but i found it entertaining. Especially with DX10 settings set to Very High.

When I come to power, the first thing I'll do is ban baked beans. The second thing I'll do though is ban anime. At which point I'll round up all anime fans and have them gathered in town squares around the country so people can point and laugh at them.

I managed to run STALKER on my VERY low spec computer. Everything was on low settings, but it still ran, and to be honest, i prefered STALKER compared to Far Cry 2. The original Far Cry was sooo much better than Far Cry 2, but it's just so random. It's one game were the storyline NEEDS to be made obvious, because most of the time, i don't know what i'm supposed to do. I usually just get killed by some random guys who shout at me and then get saved by some woman. BORING! ;)

I dunno, i found it a blast. With the awesome power of quick save and some handy equipment i just blew them to pieces. The place usually ended up like a smoking ruin when i left. But i hate the gits on towers who had rocket launchers they made life miserable.

Far cry was good until the trigens came and ruined everything. The volcano finale was one of the most horrific part of all.

With that I agree totally SB :-) Mind you, having said that, I didn't get a lot out of Stalker either ... having waited for so long during its development, it kind of lost its appeal when it finally arrived.
