Replayability of games
The only games I've played more than 10-15 times are strategy/sim like games, where you might have favorite levels that you like to re-play different strategies constantly. Like Casear3. I've played that probably close to 50 times all the way through and some levels even more times. I can see the point that playing RPG's with different teams/characters can be considered variety but I'm in the same boat where once the story/ending is known there has to be some compelling reason for me to keep playing...like becoming a fangirl of one character or something. I don't really know why playing a C3 level 70 times seems variable & fun to play over & over while playing BG w/3 wizards instead of 1 doesn't...they both require a different strategy thinking, to a degree...but RPG's aren't the same kind of strategy...maybe it's a brain thing.

Costume for Wedding Anniversary
3rd vote for the 2nd choice. It looks elegant and nobleish like. The first one makes me think of Robin Hood in purple. :D

What's Under Yer Hood?
My thingie is a cheap little device that has one port, and I have to double-hit Scroll Lock. Which has been a pain because I have to re-map keys for other programs that use that. I'll have to get something better tho when I build a 3rd PC. Hubby has 6 PC's on a long table, sharing one monitor - he uses something a bit fancier than I do.

What's Under Yer Hood?
What I have you couldn't brag about at all. But it works fine. I upgrade only when a game I want won't run or I desperately need for graphic/photos, which in the past meant "every 3-4 years or so" but now means "every 1.5 years or so." I need to build a new one soon for the new vid card tech. But I'm not in a big hurry since whatever I build will be outdated 2 seconds after I walk out of the parts store, no matter when I build it, so I probably won't upgrade the MB/vid tech until...a game I want won't run. MSI PT880 motherboard P4 3ghz 2 GB RAM GeForce 6200 128 AGP Creative Audigy2 ZS Seagate 160GB 7200 ATA HD Toshiba CD/DVD-RW network card Floppy Generic keyboard Very basic MS intelliwheel mouse (it's very small & fits my hand) Some cheap, heavy, 17" tube monitor that I still really like 3-piece speakers, nothing special One of those things that lets you share monitor w/multiple PC's Some big blue and black CoolerMaster case

The Witcher
Never heard of it until this thread. It looks pretty but pictures are all the same these days. I'll wait for reviews.

SW: Empire At War Demo!
Is there something wrong with the link given? If I can get past the waiting line I'll probably check this out soon. Sounds like most of you think it's worth trying...Maybe it'll re-invigorate my interest in the RTS field.

Costume for Wedding Anniversary
I'm not into this stuff but I Googled around, and Hade's is right...a lot of the coolest/best looking costumes costs way more than $100. The closest I found on the web that had mix/match shirts/vests/bottoms that I thought looked simple/ok for the price was stuff like this one: http://www.threadsoftime.com/ Probably not much help...good luck.

Looking for sad music
A lot of older celtic type music (not reels) is what I would call 'hauntingly sad' - not sobbing/tears kind of sad...just melancholy. ...spelling mistooks...can we have that 1 minute 'edited by' delay back? huh?

how do you take screenshots pics
I love Fraps for movies...but I haven't liked it for screenshots. I like Hypersnap much better. Just personal preference. Edit city tonight - they're both safe, as long as you get them from their official sites.

Couple get 9 years prison for Wendy's finger scam
There wasn't anything about what prison. I was just stating a personal opinion on what might change my view of what's excessive or non-excessive in such a criminal case. As some regular's might have noticed, I sometimes stray into the realm of generalistic concept in my mumblings rather than strict topic-fact following... :D

how do you take screenshots pics
You might have one of those versions where you may have to enable screenshots (set it to '1') in the swkotor2.ini file, located in the default game install directory. P.S. The problem w/stuff like Fraps too is that I think you get their logo on every image if you don't want to pay for it...or amybe that's just on Hypersnap...I get them mixed up.
-
how do you take screenshots pics
If they're dark just use a graphic editor to lighten them up a bit. Also, hitting print screen (us pc version anyway) the game will save them to the program files/lucasarts/swkotor2 folder as a sequentially numbered .tga file. Thus you can wait until after you're done playing to view/edit them all.

America definitely needs to put some lockdowns on the whole lawsuit thing.
-
Couple get 9 years prison for Wendy's finger scam
Uh...I think you misunderstood the thrust of my comment. I was saying that because they hadn't done what I consider to be an excessively 'hienous' crime such as murder etc. that I would consider them having to do their time in a hardcore prison excessive - not the amount of time of the sentence itself.

The suspense is making me antsy. Oh, and the article up there says the finger belonged to a co-worker, tho it doesn't name names.

That would fall under 'excessive'....

Couple get 9 years prison for Wendy's finger scam
Mmm....I'm sure we have some of those here too...but we also have completely seperated white collar and 'hardcore/deathrow' type places. At least, last I knew. I don't keep up on prison updates very often. :D

hahaha!!! That was great. I wonder if he tells them that he's doing little funny videos or if they're all left to think he's some psycho kid. lol

True enough, skynet...but I don't think that means that they should be thrown into a jail full of hardcore murderers, rapists, and whatnot.
-
Couple get 9 years prison for Wendy's finger scam
To me it depends on the prison. Something akin to the soft-place Martha Stewart went to...justice. Something akin to San Quentin...excessive. I mean, it's not they killed anyone for that finger. And since I doubt they could afford to pay the millions Wendy's might be able to win a suit against them, loss of freedom ala Stewart seems equitable.

kotor 3 for real
Lack of hope the path of the darkside may be. :D Meh..I always say, let 'em dream/hope, but even I'm tired of all the K3 rumors etc. heh

What do they yell when fighting?
Yes it is. :cool:

Movies you've seen lately
@ RedEye...it's watchable, it's just nothing special. It's been there, done that, with an over-drawn out and rather boring & somewhat pointless first hour of set-up. The 2nd half of the film is better, but by then I didn't care. I did like the pencil/scarf bit tho. And I think the 'bad guy' actor is going to go places.

Fitness and Health
My eyes!! That's even worse than anchovies. I think I was the one who mentioned photography while walking. My camera pretty much goes everywhere I go. On the downside, sometimes I end up doing a little more picture taking than hiking. But I figure it gets me outside and about so...
