Canada's weather is so nice despite the fact it's damn cold...Yeah, it can get mighty cold here, At least around the Rupert/Smithers/Terrace area its been rather good this year. Haven't had a lot of snow or crazy colds. This may be a record year for the lacking of that deadly due. You going to school at like UNBC in Prince George? or you in Van?

Canada is great, you travel to most countries and the people there tend to like you. We got a good rep.
As for living here, its often colder then what most people are used to, but its manageable. We have to prepare for cold like how other have to be prepared for heat. Along the coast we have a stable temperature falling between 30 degrees and -30 degrees. Only downside, is a -10 on the coast is far worst then a -10 in the mainland. The moister in the air around here is a big factor.
But i can't really speak from experience, i have only ever lived in B.C. but my fellow workers came from Ontario, so they probably have a good idea of the cold.
B.C. is certainly beautiful with its mountain ranges, i would say it only real weakness is the politics with the First Nations. (now thats a long story)

Fierach Alright. Now for a most important question. Dead Space 3 or Aliens Colonial Marines. In all likely hood both games with be rated 8-9s, Dead Space has easily been my favorite series on this generation. So i'm gonna buy it for sure, most likely gonna pick up ACM aswell. But i would wait for a price drop on both, ACM is an unproven franchise, and Dead Space 3 has EA's (haha) greedy hands all over it, therefore is has a pointless and unneeded cash market in the game's weapon upgrade system. I am getting tired of companies using the |free to play| transaction system in 60$ games, its BS, skins, weapon upgrades... that s**t should be free for 60 bones. NOTE! of IMPORTANCE. The New DMC is good, great even! It has been easily the best game i have played in the past few months. So despite my LOVE for dead space, i cannot buy it full price with DS3 doing that...it something i refuse to support.

Well its either that or they just close down the company and start churning out apps that cost like 10k to make and bring in millions.

You make it seem like EA isn't making profit off a 60 dollar game.
To include mirco transactions in full price release is greed, nothing less. If Dead Space and Dead Space 2 were not making money for EA, we wouldnt have seen Dead Space 3.
Video game companies bring in a lot of money, a 60 dollar game barely gives anything to the people that actually make it, and plenty to the publishers. If mirco transactions went to the actual game devs and game development it would make sense, but it doesn't.
This method of getting as much money out of the player base with little to no work or content is a short term money grab. Consumers are catching on, and we have seen with Capcom and their rapid decline in sales numbers. People arn't happy with dlc on disks, and mirco transactions are just the same idea in a different method of release. When paying full price for a game, you should get the full package, not a part of it.
Asura's Wrath was a 60 dollar game of only 6 hours, and BEST OF ALL, the actually ending of the game is a 10 dollar dlc. Yeah, i'm sure that was so they could afford making the game...wasn't greed at all. noo way

Tresondros Ecstuffuan KBI think the problem is KB when people play really shitty and dumb characters and their portrayal of that character is also melodramatic. Are you insulting my characters? No. My drunk alchemist is perfect. Please apologize.

Well looks like I'm out of the HOH but my personal fight score was awesome and it was a heck of a way to go out.
