Ditto. Maybe Korriban next, because of the creepy atmosphere and cave crawling. I liked Nar Shada and such, but I'm not really all that into big beehivish cities - even in games... haha.

Look at it this way...by the time you work your way through the first 1/3 ot 1/2 of that list, the rest will be a lot cheaper. On that list, I think NWN2 and maybe the M&M one are the ones I'm interested in. The other games I keep thinking about getting have been out for a while, like CivRome and Rome Total War. Yes I like Rome-themed games...

Do you get to choose what character to be when you jump in the book, or is that magically random? If "yes", then any book where I can have superpowers because that'd be, like, fun. If the answer is "it's randomly chosen for you", then scratch that and instead, any book that doesn't involve evil wizards/leaders/dasterdly plans, Ultimate Evil (the Ring! oh noes!), or world or galatic wars of a fantastical or even 'normal' nature, etc. Hmm....I don't read many books without such things in them. Perhaps Asimov's Robot novel series.

About to eat a bowl of noodles with beef leftover from last night mixed in, while I fire up the Ceaser4...again.

I'm not even 40 and already there's a mental decline; I blame the pizza. Seriously tho...yes, not surprising. All things in balance.

Again, not that I've played the game, but this reminds me a bit of Ultima9...where there were actually many things I liked about the game, and I kept playing for a while, but in the end, the bad things (some of them really really bad) made me shelve it and eventually riddicule it mercilessly. I sincerely hope Gothic3 is patched etc. It does sound like if it was done properly, it'd be a fun game. If not...well, like mentioned...Gothic4...

lol, meta. He's the flag bearer/commander/morale indicator I guess. Doesn't do any fighting; can't be attacked.

Braveheart moment, Caesar4 style.

My favorite character storylines so far are the cheerleader, the flying politician, and the silent servant of the possible red-herrring bad guy in the glasses. I want to know the servant's story/powers, lol. Tho I'm pretty curious what the power-leecher dude will turn into, also. ...and yeah, the only reason Mr. Politician landed where he did was so the other character could see him. *rolls eyes* Still fun tho. :D

Browsing 3 forums and playing Casear4. :D

That's exactly what I thought of it when I saw it again years later. In the theater, I was LOLing all over the place. Later, I thought...well, Robin's funny, but....still, a decent movie.

That site is really cool...but their download speeds from TX are abysmal. Guess they're busy... Cool 3D desktop thing. I never actually played any of those...I think there was an arcade place around here for it, but never went in.

That was kind of my thought, alan. They're not writing a whole new engine or anything, etc. There might be some quirks with the mods as something they restore causes a conflict with something that's already there, maybe...or something...but I don't think it'd be system-variable.

If you save the game before clicking on store people that may sell robes, you can then re-load when they don't have a dark one and try again. Once you click on a store person tho, their inventory is 'set'. And I don't recall anyone selling anything but the padiwan dark robe. The master ones and such had to be found. And then there's the KSE save game editor...

Obsessively taking way more screen captures of xmen3 than is neccesary.

I saw a trailer for Fantastic 4 on the Xmen3 DVD - I didn't know the guy from Nip/Tuck was in it. As the bad guy, yet. Darnit...now I'll have to rent what I hear is a very bad movie.

I played catch-up. Series is definitely getting better. If they can hold that pace, it oughta fly.

New & Improved Odor Eaters? :D

Still Caesar4 - I think this game is going to eat me alive, just like C3 did. There's a few things that I don't like compared to c3 - it's somewhat easier, for one thing, and combat w/your legions is more pointless than ever - but overall it has the same city-building addictiveness. Far better than CotN in that regard, say. The editor is buggy, difficult, and almost useless, tho, which is too bad. There's a huge, "pure" pre-order-only sandbox level that was immediately uploaded by fans so everyone can have it, haha, and it's a peach of a sandbox, no doubt.

Why in the world would I want to make garbage smell pretty? So I can keep it inside the house in a large bucket? I'll pass. :D

I guess it's scientifically interesting, but since a smell doesn't have to be universal to trigger feelings of relaxation or pleasure in people, I don't see how it's "exciting". People can already find smells they like individually and use those for happy-smelling. Perhaps they're thinking it'd be useful in anti-depressant research or something? Otherwise...just sounds like a way to sell more perfume.

I'd like to seem them make something entirely new and not already franchised, or whatever - tho still a RPG. Failing that...Kotor3. :D

Review makes me hopeful that I'll enjoy it, since I'm usually more focused on the SP game. I like editors, too, but if it's as complex as the Morrowind editor was (or moreso), too much work for me re: making whole levels and such, and I'd wait for the mod geniuses to make stuff. :D And I like taking both "pro" reviews and user reviews into account. They're all subjective...getting as much input from as many sources is always good. Which is why I probably will wait a week before I buy the game. heh

Thanks, that would explain it then. When I asked hubby about it when he got home, he said about the same thing...He didn't know it'd changed either. We don't pay much attention to changed details on "common" hardware like that, heh.

I ran that test a bit ago. It says I pass with flying colors, although I'm doubtful that's really the case. I'm sure it'll run ok...just not as well as the test might make one think. I did update my video driver tho, I'd fallen behind a little. :D I was confused with the "2 processors running/rated at..." stuff too. I asked hubby about it and he said some techy stuff I don't remember...yes, I'm so helpful.
