I'll stick with a PC. I do other things with a computer. And is this after the Affordable Health Care Options coming up? Consoles just don't seem to make my day.

I guess Patch 5 came out about an hour ago. Not sure what patch number, or what it contains yet, but honk your horns and tell the world. Okay, don't know the size of the patch either, conflicting reports, but I guess there seems to be a patch ready to download on Steam. Well, the game ain't SimCity.

Today is March 15, 2013.

Kevin is getting out his violin to play a serenade for all of you players. Of couse I just think the aliens should win the game most of the time, and humans can fix their computers and consoles - well, again you got sold on those for some reason a lot of PC players just can not understand.

Some of the violence is not needed to be sure. It adds nothing to the story line or game line. But watching a Sectoid twitch in XCOM is not to me violence when it dies, it a fact of farm life like when killing anything used for food. Also female drivers on cell-phones when driving may be way more violent or grandmas when not watching what their teen-age kids may be doing while babysitting. In fact, it is not my day to babysit and still some people just think that men ought to be sterilized. Well, Daffy Duck!

The entire attitude is one of contempt and shortcomings in certain people's attitude and more than once these type of people have used these excuses to further their own bully natures. Emotional garbage is suppose to have Intellect behind it in the first place, not in the no-way near place of this world portrays - and that is one of emotional immaturity and minding one's own mind in the first place.

You'll have to type the name "Sid Meier" into one of your Squaddies to get him into the game. Another note, the player (in football I guess) that beat a Firaxis employee in multi-player (I forget which one) is I think spelled "Chris Kluwe" to put him as a hero into the game. Can be looked up to find out the spelling and such.

XP is not supported, so the way mentioned to get the game to run in XP is not a sure bet although a person can try, but on some computers with XP it will not run the videos or whatever in the game. The game is made for Vista or Windows 7.

(unless a patch comes out later supporting XP ??)

Oh, and the latest thought of as a bug. The game slows down and shows like an action-slow-down cam of the action going on. It does not do it all the time, but it is not a bug, but part of the game. Now, back to the game because it works well on my computer system, and it is not all that new of a video card or monitor, but play it more, to really get the feel of the atmosphere of the game. (sirens and all).

It's the third patch and it is downloaded on Steam while you look around. (or downloaded when you get there to download the 3rd patch of the game.

And also the letter sent to Mrs. Jake Soloman at Firaxis headquarters with the dog tags about her late deceased husband sent from the airforce base in Nebraska. (Ah, she did not appreciate that, so he can keep the letter and dog tags at the Firaxis Headquarters and out of the house. Well, so much for a sense of humor.)

The player means the camera glitch when they have a second controller plugged into their console and the camera slews?? And the so-called other bugs are not really that much of a bug, just makes the game harder just when the player thinks they should have the LOS they really do not have?? Numerous other things like trying to play the game with a video card or drivers or monitors that can not start it up?? Try "-windowed" to launch the game with, because there are many resolutions of the monitor the game can be played in. Now to some players there are still some other bugs, to other players they are just part of the game. That does not mean that their are not bugs in the game yet, but Firaxis has fixed those before with a game unlike some other so-called programmed games. Yet the 3rd patch is suppose to minimize some of those so-called bugs.
