Some GTA IV modded with Icenhancer 2.1 + Lord Neophyte's textures 

II-Siamak-II

Whats your game version?

Using version 1.04. Found it works best with Icenhancer performance wise and avoids the "red sky bug" of 1.07

It's all about 21:9. I can't go back to 1200p! muwahahaha!Elann2008
Notice you had a 1200p monitor - is there a way to get the 21:9 resolution to work? Is it just a custom resolution on the Nvidia settings?

I have been very happy with my Denon AH-D2000 for the past couple of years. You can find them for a little over $300.

Not sure if you are looking for something like this, but Among the Believers by VS Naipaul is a nonfiction work (presented almost like a travelogue) in which he details his visits to non-Arabian Islamic states (he focuses on Iran, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Indonesia). He really makes the locations and the "everyday" beliefs of the people come alive in a way that reminded me a lot of the Kite Runner's portrayal of Kabul.

That is specifically for your request above for "Middle Eastern" stuff. 

Also noticed your original post mentioned psychology - I had to read "Opening Skinner's Box" by Lauren Slater before my first psychology course back in high school. It was a great read, and provides some great "starting point" knowledge about psychology by taking you through 10 important experiments and findings in the 20th century. 

In terms of philosophy, political theory, and literature classics, everyone above has you pretty well covered.

So, is there a 10 Gig texture pack for Bioshock or not? I can't find it anywhere

Ben-Buja
Have been trying to look for it aswell, I know there has been some confusion. According to this thread: http://steamcommunity.com/app/8870/discussions/0/828934424001945452/ it is already included in the pc download. The console versions are apparently the ones that don't ship with it, and can opt for a download. According to one post, the PC version is a three disc version (the physical version at least) because it includes the texture pack "right out of the box." I would assume the digital download already includes the hd textures given the download size. Maybe someone with the physical version can compare the size of the three combined discs to the download size to confirm, though?

Looks like they started rolling this out early. Origin updated tonight and I was able to select and download my free game.

Hmm, to above, not sure, I know originally they said you had to have authenticated the game on origin by today (March 18). The email they sent out today (it was copied / pasted in an earlier post) as well as the faq (in the original post) said now if you authenticate it by March 25, you will be eligible for the offer. Pretty sure authenticate means just having it downloaded / installed on origin (probably also logged in and actually played it, but not sure about this) by that date and you will get the free game. This would probably boost sales of the game despite all the negative attention it has gotten since its release, while also making up for the still diminished gameplay people who buy it now will still experience (Cheetah speed is still disabled, for example).

The language of the email says " Mayors who have authenticated their copy of SimCity on Origin by March 25 can select a free game through a redemption portal inside the Origin desktop client later this week." From the way I am reading it, I think you can still buy it and get the free game.
