Thank you Professor. But kids these days are not too pedantic about grammar and stuff.

1 ) My grandmother was an English professor at University of Phoenix. She'd know.
2 ) The older English was rich and very intelligent. This was one of their rules. I will not conform to today's lower standard.
3 ) If you, or anybody else, cannot understand simple and effective speech without mucking it up with remarks like "Where are you AT?" and "What's this TO?" then you are part of today's problem of dumbing down our language. You are a human being, and therefore, smart enough to adjust and better yourself. I trust you will want to do so.

Now, back on topic. I'm a 360 user. No mods, but I love it anyway.

I will be purchasing Skyrim to play on my Xbox 360.

You sound awfully savvy and traditionalist for someone named "Nordic Ninja".

Oh, the irony...

Digital Distribution = STEAM.
Manufactured Retail = Physical Copy of the game.

OT : PC, Manufactured Retail.

A physical copy of the PC version of the game only gives you a box and a CD. When you place the CD into your computer it prompts you to bring up Steam where you insert the CD key, and then Steam handles the downloading from there. :rolleyes:

The game is being handled by Steam, having a physical copy just gives you extra work of picking up the game, placing the CD into your computer, and typing out the CD key into Steam. :rolleyes:

I see everyone with Nord in their name is fighting with each other now. I suppose they're just getting into the spirit of Skyrim.

In the words of Sir Winston Churchill (a man who knew the English language at least as well as your grandmother): "This is the type of errant pedantry up with which I will not put."

This I am not understanding.... I am of Norwegian blood, and favor the stealthy (and efficient) techniques of the ninja... I see no connection to this irony of which you speak.

Notice how he does not end his sentence with a preposition either. He was smart enough to know that.

Topic, please?

The fact that usually traditionalists don't like mixing up different cultures, but rather center themselves in their own.

Plus, the term "ninja" is so overused it has ended up being pretty lame...

Yes, but you don't have to download it, it will be installed from the retail CD. Steam will just download any updates that have been released since.

I will be playing on the Xbox 360. You know... for the mods... :brokencomputer:

» Sun Sep 18, 2011 7:01 am

Build yourself a new one if you want.

With what money?

Well, I do like variety. And there is something beautiful nearly everywhere.

And I agree. A lot of little kids think they are cool (which they are), but go about dishonoring the name with their immature actions. And they probably haven't even researched them enough to know what it is about which they are speaking. Study some ninjitsu for a while. It should give you a taste.

Lastly, I would have left the "Ninja" part out, had I not thought about a possibility. Perhaps, through my conduct, I could reclaim and redeem the name of the great Japanese assassins who are so stereotypically displayed in today's culture? This is one of my goals.

I know, I keep on asking for hand outs whenever someone scoffs at me for not having a PC that would be able to handle the minimum requirements for Skyrim, and even then they scoff at me! :sadvaultboy:

I shall point out that the Japanese were the ones that stereotyped them in the first place, thirty or so years ago with their movies and manga, not today's culture. Now back to your delusions!!! :rolleyes:
