According to the Mayan calendar, the world is going to end on December 12, 2012. The Warren Group is trying to use technology to figure out a way to stop the world from ending. In the end, will their work pay off or is hope beyond reach?
This is an exciting book that truthfully scared me out of my wits. I can handle horror novels and scary movies but this book shook me to my core. Not because of monsters or serial killers but because this is a true prediction, it struck a nerve. The writing is superb and I'm going to have to add Brian to my list of favorite authors.

Отлично! Перелопатил кучу сайтов, пока наткнулся на ваш. Актуальная информация, отличные публикации! Все говорит о том, что над ресурсом работают фанаты своего дела. Взгляните на портал EvolutionTehnical -ресурс: [url=http://www.evolutiontechnical.com/view/tehnologii/]международные технологии[/url], такой же тематики. Может что то Вам будет полезно.
Because of numerous reasons that are tied to a certain place, a video game, already released in some places and that looks completely problem-free in one country may be looked upon as unacceptable somewhere else. Such issues highlight why localization - contrary to mere translation- is a must for computer and consoles games.
However these facts raise an important questions: when does localization go so far that it becomes censorship? Should gamers accept this?
I will show you a simple example, let's see how Yakuza 3 on PS3 was adapted for the US territory. A lot of gamers complained because some scenes and important elements of the games where changed when the game made it to US.
I assume that someone purchasing the third installment in a game series would normally have a pretty good idea as to what kind of content they were getting into, especially with a series such as Yakuza, which is relatively well-known. The games even receive ratings similar to films, giving the consumer an even better idea of what the game in question contains.
Regardless as to what country this game is purchased in, by default (due to content) the player will generally be an adult - or at least old enough to understand that the game may contain some "naughty bits". Just look at the cover - this fact is not going to surprise anyone. So who are the publishers to decide even further who this game is for, and what parts they should be allowed to play?.
Game localization should be given more consideration, and before censoring, developers should rather listen to their gamers at first.
great blog If you are the type to update your blog regulary, then you have gained one daily reader in me today. keep up the super work.
