Consider what the US must look like to an outsider. :lol:

I try not to.  <_<
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Well, North Korea released a letter Kim wrote, so that definitely proves he is still alive and fully operational. :)

North Korea's Twitter confirmed he's alive and well also. What a miraculous recovery!
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

South Korea seems to think he's fine, at least publicly.

Probably fake, but I found it amusing. :)

Well, the map's real - it's Steam's global traffic map for download stats in satellite view; looking at it now there is that one blob in North Korea.

Of course, the interactive map version of it lists "0 B" as North Korea's usage in the last seven days.

The location of the activity though?

I think they really did remake FF7, as crazy as that sounds.

From what I understand it's more of a reimagining? I've not played any of the FF games, so I have no idea. :)

I heard it is a remake, with modern graphics. 

Habbaku

No, it's definitely a reimagining. The story is different and the game isn't even complete at the moment.

I will buy it when there is a PC version.

I just cannot buy any of them after the blatant false advertising of the first one.

No idea what you are talking about. 

The FF7 remake (which is the official title) playstation version is out.  Screenshots, videos, and music files are available.  No way it is false advertising.  The graphics are definitely up to current standards. 

Camerus

I assume it's a joke that it's not a "final" fantasy since there are many more of them in the series.

My dad made the same joke, back when I bought Final Fantasy II (IV) in the early - mid 90s.
