You post truths, now do you? Let's see.
Not the truth.
Debatable, fact is that most Americans really had no intention of going to war in Europe until Germany declared war on them. America was pretty fine and dandy with the Nazi's as long as Hitler and his superbestfriends didn't attack their country.
Meh, also debatable. Yes, Hollywood is pretty much the dominant cinematic force in the western world. This is simply the result of:
a) A headstart;
b) Generally making movies for the lowest common denominator;
c) arguably a monopoly.
Is this something to be proud of? I don't know.
... The Europe? Seriously, you fail semantics forever. There's no such thing as "The Europe"
Also, they went to the Indies for profit, not simply to brag about it (although there was a lot of bragging involved eventually)
Arguably the USA went to the moon for science, but the only thing it really taught them was the moon is a shitty and expensive place to go to, a shitty place to be and the fact there was, indeed, no life on the moon as far as they could see. Ah, and they brought back some rocks. Yay for moonrocks: advancing the studies of lunar geology by miles.
Euro > USD. Fact. (for now at least, if the lazy Portuguese and Greeks don't mess it up further)
Also, when's the last time a European country decided to start a war for shits and giggles?
Why do you lie, Volly, why do you lie?
Fuck, I don't even know why I replied to your post.
WTF did this thread turn into now?

Germans stopped ruskies. Hitler was a fucking faggot in hands of Stalin, a puppet. Germans invades europe -> ruskies come to the rescue and take over whole europe. That was the plan but it never happend cause Stalin was to stupid to think that his faggy friend Hitler is a rusher and want to rape him before Stalin rapes Hitler. I would call it a fail of cooperation, you ignorant bastard

I'd love to play the excorcist and have her swallow my holy water to purify her dirty female soul.

Just btw. The American space program was only possible because of Wernher von Braun, a german rocket scientist.
But comparing countries is pointless, since island always wins. I mean they are the offsprings of the vikings! Compare with that und you always loose.

What? European porn totally ownz Kwanzanian porn. Except for German, it's shitty literally.
I happen to be the prototypical American. I am a Hungarian-descent, Ohio-born Californian. I am self-employed, I drive a Dodge, and I voted for McCain. I am the perfect demographic for this topic.
Alpha Protocol is a good game. I really have grown to like the gameplay, I love the clean graphics, and I actually appreciate the challenge of the minigames. I'd prefer it if lockpicking, hacking, etc., were completely skill-based, but I'm accomodating enough to understand why they're not. I am enjoying the story and some of its twists, so far. Had no idea I was going to have to go "rogue" in the game, for example. The dialog flows rather smoothly, I think, and I genuinely like the method and effect of the dialog choices. I have yet to even witness some of the better C&C the game has to offer. The characters are all interesting and rather convincing.
I play this game on my high-end PC. It runs perfectly. I have yet to finish AP, but I'm virtually certain it will be a game I will remember fondly for some time.
Then again, many of you know approximately how old I am, and that probably explains a lot of the lack of FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU when evaluating this game. Not to imply that it's a game meant for a more mature set, but rather I think I can more patiently and objectively judge something like this than someone who grew up with a controller in his hand as opposed to a keyboard and mouse, like I did. You couldn't pay me to play it on an XBox or PS3.
Are the Euro gaming journalists more sophisticated in their tastes? More mature somehow? Phhht. It just boils down to each continent's general tendency of greater appreciation of the others' products. I think we did the same thing with Gothic, for example, been going on for many decades.
BTW, I've changed my mind about New Vegas. It looks like shit.
