So it throws this huge universe at you. You can pick which planets to travel to on the universe map and then go there. However on the planets that are aside from the main quests, you won't find very much excitement. The planets usually consist of a lazy displacement map with cookie cutter buildings. A couple of planets will have events like dropships fly down and drop off more enemies, but for the most part they're not very interesting at all, and your exploration vehicle is extremely easy to use. ...

THE GOOD:
The game was one of the most enjoyable games i've ever played. Great universe, story, gameplay... The game WOULD have been given a 5 star review from me if it wern't for one thing.
THE BAD:
DRM (Digital Rights Management)
I've installed the game on my laptop twice. Original time...played through and beat it. Saved the Bioware documents folder to a flash drive(so my character and progress wouldn't be lost) before re-formating my hard drive.... ... Read More

Technical Support from Bioware has been really really awfull, their forums are full of issues and nobody answers.
The game crashes miserably on my computer, which is not a old computer, i recently played Bioshock, Assasins Creed, Call of Duty without any issues.

Fun game, had a great time till found out about the DRM stuff. Returned to store the same day. I don't even like programs that comes with no uninstaller much less this EA "All people who pay for our game must be a pirate" crap.

Personally I thought this was a great game with a huge universe. Granted there are some planets and buildings that are almost exact duplicates, but still very fun none-the-less. These duplicates were only seen on some of the side quests anyways. Lots of different choices of specialties and even chosing your talents throughout the game, the most of any game that I have played (besides MMO's). A review for a game should be about the game not about how someones computer handled it. Personally, I had to ... Read More

Cunard Line has announced that its new
85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,
Queen Elizabeth 2, and Queen Mary 2, the biggest passenger liner ever, the
Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Cruise
Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will
operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries,
Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,
the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining.
There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular
panoramic views.
Queen Victoria cruises will offer a wide range of
accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high
percentage of balcony cabins (67%), thereby bringing new levels of luxury and
choice to passengers preferring to depart from a European port. Cruise
Queen Victoria!
Cheap Cost Hosting
The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.
Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria. The
lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
