    If you don't make enough money to pay your employees, don't you kinda think you wouldn't report a profit?
    ~Derail~
    What circumstances was that Steel Cyclone under Xavier? What gear/songs/debuffs etc? (sorry probably should have been a PM.)
    What a random derail rofl.

    Soulvoice Minuet, Mad, Warrior's Charge, 300% tp, berserk, warcry, Mighty Strikes. Forget the gear, mix of str and vit.

    I dunno, it doesn't seem like that high of a Steel Cyclone, but I've only fought Hydra once so its all I have to go on.
    .

    Ok, thanx, I was more curious about the gear actually ><; as optimal buff situations are pretty obvious. Im always torn between STR att/acc and VIT gear, as Im never sure what actually makes the average higher, and when you're capping out on attack etc.

    And why only fought Hydra once?! Musta capped out on Sirius Axes. :wink:

    after reading this article, that was the first thing that came to my mind lol. It's pretty bad to think it, but i did. Especially because of the abundance of underpaid mexicans that work hard labor at the farm where i board my horses. Those would be perfect employee's to have camp target for me.

    If Sony knew they wouldn't be able to meet initial demand for their machine, why not sell the first few units for something like $3,000 from their own website? They have to know that people would buy them. Why not sell PS3s for obscene amounts until the demand falls, or at least just until they can produce enough product to create a respectable store launch.

    This is the way it has been done for a long time. when any game for ps3 sells Sony gets a cut, lets say $10, so it's in their best interest to have a larger install base.

    Post Script: Is it just me or are the ps3 tv adds horrible, especially for a company who has traditonally had good comercials.

    No way. Seeing eggs roll around on a screen always inspires me to buy a product.

    Ironic thing about that commercial is how they focused on just one egg after all the others rolled off camera. Is that a metaphor for them trying to manipulate all their eggs to place in a basket, and wind up with only one in the end? Hmm... deep thoughts (by Jack Handy.)

    A law? Against making money off of your own creation? No.
