Thank you for the entire thing my good sir.

After seeing it cross the camera on this week's "I Love Mondays", I wanted to give a quick look out of genuine curiosity and well, boredom. It's dorky, hokey, completely weird, and absolutely out there. Give it a chance though (and, let's be honest, this is pretty much only worth it if you have some down time), and It's actually a bit funny. There's some good little chuckles in here as well for fans of either series. Just wanted to share. Enjoy.......

I have to admit, I see the point of making and keeping the decisions permanent. It brings a bit of reality to the story, and that lends itself to a whole lot of refreshing enjoyment. The only counter-point I could possibly bring up, is that it's a game, and it never hurts to enjoy it the way you want to, so why not go load an earlier save, keep everyone alive, and have fun with that? Yet he brings that up when mentioning later replays of the story.

Either way, I think the permanent status of one's decisions lends itself well to the reality of what this, and other, stories wish to convey.

Please, in the name of the all Holy Gods of Gaming, please don't let this be the typical "everything needs multiplayer" route. Please.

It doesn't matter what you think or believe; MAC, PC, whatever, what kind of "fanboy" you may or may not be, it doesn't matter. A wonderful, hard working, dedicated human being has passed away, and should be representative of all people who face a difficult moment in their life. Having literally watched a family member pass away right before my eyes due to cancer, I hope that Job's family, friends, and co-workers receive all the support, condolences, and care they rightfully deserve at this time, they have a tough road ahead.

Epic. Absolutely, undoubtedly, without any form of reservation, epic.

While I don't entirely agree with them capitalizing on trying to make as much profit as they can by offering Early Game Access knowing that large numbers of the gaming community will indeed partake, I totally understand the reality of business and the need to show profit, especially to investors. Still, it doesn't mean I agree with it.

No no no. The server wouldn't. I guess what I'm seeking is a program that would aid in that. The server part I totally understand. But when a vague, non-sensical, half way done project gets thrown on my desk, I get all worked up and don't flush out details when seeking advice.

Okay so, Giantbomb is not necessarily the place to bring this, but this is perhaps one of the most benevolent online communities I have ever been a part of, and I appreciate that more than anyone will ever understand. So, let me get to the topic at hand.

At work, I have been tasked with dragging our organization, kicking and screaming, into the "new" age of digital records. Essentially, what I need to do is set up a server that can be accessed by our supervisor online from anywhere in the world, that stores all of our information electronically, and updates it automatically.

Here's some specifics:

- Every thirty minutes, we need to write down the time. It does not have to be exactly thirty minutes on the dot.

- Included with that time record, we need to include a number, a current count, of the number of pieces of physical data sitting on nine different desks at that moment (manila files containing financial information)

- Additionally, with all of this, any comments we write down need to be included in this record system.

- All of it has to update automatically as the information is written down, and then stored and saved to the server, and preferably a back up location.

Any advice or pointed fingers in the right direction is greatly appreciated guys. If you know of companies, or are a company that does this, there may very well be a contract involved if you or they are looking for business. Keep in mind if that contract comes up, you will have to be cleared since you will see confidential personal information. Again, any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello, hello. Welcome, and please enjoy your time here.
