  1. Nimoy: "The Cosmic Ballet.. goes on." Passenger: "Ummm, does anyone want to swtch seats?" Loved that episode. :D
  2. Nerd? no Geek? most definitely It's all in how you word it
  3. "I knew it! I'm surrounded by ****." drops helmet "Keep firing, ****!!" Love that movie. Oh... and I really enjoyed cutting him down.. Been wanting to do that since meeting the council in KOTOR1. (arrogant jerk )
  4. A whole bevy of babes. Yup, doesn't get much better than that.
  5. Heh. A lot of people seems to think that just because he's Vader in the OT, he should have been born an evil mofo. Yeah, he should have force choked to death that fool who owned him and his mother, and he should have killed Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan as soon as he saw them because they were Jedi. And everyone knows that Lord Vader lives to kill Jedi. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I never said I thought Anakin should have been born an evil guy, I just don't buy the way he's changing. Just seems like he's a prototypical teen who believes he's better than his elders ("Obi-wan's holding me back. It's all his faul!t") instead of someone who's truly falling to the dark side. All I'm saying is that I hope Ep 3 will give a good reason for the fall.
  6. Usually it's due to graduating from high school, going to college, finishing college and not finding a job, and doing all this in the same town your parents live in. Satrs out as just being a cheap way to live during college and turns into a semi life plan. Had a buddy who finally moved out at age 27.
  7. Yesssss.... We got another one. coff coff I mean, hmmm, that's interesting. (note to self: he knows too much )
  8. Not by murdering him but letting him shoot first, thats what i mean. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Doesn't really work for the character though. Until he hooked up with Luke and Ben, Han was a smuggler plain and simple. A person out for himself and nobody else, except for maybe Chewie. He's not nearly chivalrous enough to allow somebody to get the first shot in, especially at point-blank range. Can't make any money or have any fun if you're dead and letting the other guy shoot first on the off chance he'll miss just to show you're not a cold-blooded killer is just a stupid idea.
  9. Some truly impressive work in that gallery of yours Liz. Very nice indeed. Might be nice to be able to draw but since I can't, I'll have to stick to writing. Only major downside is it's much harder to post good examples of that without making people read really big posts.
  10. Heya! (so hard not to kill him, even in good games) Gotta say GO-TO. Never got Hanharr as I just can't bring myself to give up Mira for a walking carpet so I can't say anything about him.
  11. If it did it would be a popular game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> KOTOR III: Blind Entry
  12. Major problems I have with the orginal trilogy so far are A: the de-mystification of the force. no longer is it "an energy fields that surrounds us and binds us together" its now a bunch of microscopic parasites (though it is interesting to note that the midichlorians never got mentioned in ep 2) B: I just can't see how Mr. Whiny becomes Darth Vader. Nope. Don't see that at all. C: Unless ep 3 has some seriously improved writing, I can't see how they can correct all the continuity errors between original trilogy and the new flicks. For example, the convo between Luke and Ghost Kenobi on Degobah where Ben talks about his taking on Anakin as his apprentice and how Yoda was his master. None of that matches with what we learned in Eps 1 and 2. I'd cite others but I'm at work so my typing time is limited. Visually the movies are great but they have no substance. IMnsHO of course
  13. True, but I've never heard of someone accidentally cracking theirself in the leg with a bo staff. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not once they've mastered it perhaps, but what about during their training? "Umm Master Vandar sir? Johnny chopped off his other leg. Maybe we should give him a single hilt."
  14. Phew! Not feeling so old after all now that a few more votes are in. For the main topic, I'm 32. Now on to this nice discussion over when video games really kicked in. I remember when my Dad bought the family an Intellivision for Christmas. I was maybe 6-8 years old so that puts it around 25 years ago. Intellivision, Colecovision, and the ever popular Atari 2600 came out maybe only a year or two before we got ours so I figure that's a fairly accurate timeline on when widespread gaming in the home started happening. I'd say that at least in North America, anyone younger than 30 pretty much grew up in the video game world. The rest still remember what life was like before them. As for the 'net, you're probably right with the 10-16 demographic having it around pretty much their entire lives. At the oldest they were like me when I got my first video game. I don't really recall much of a wait before the first mass produced home PCs and the advent of the Internet. I went from playing X-Com on my old 286, to hitting the BBSs and one of my all-time favorite games, Trade Wars, to going online for the first time in a little over 5 years. This of course may just be my alcohol (and other intoxicants) befuddled memory playing a few tricks on me. (let that be a lesson to the youngins, all things in moderation and you should have a happy, healthy, and mostly gap-free memory ). There may not have been much online gaming yet but there was a whole lot of games out there nontheless for the 16-24 crowd.
