"And, the earlier comments about the lead actress are true- she does have a certain "reputation" since early on in her high school years. She used to be one of the "hangers-on" on the fringes of the "it-girl" crowd in the big city and was always doing something to get noticed by anyone who would give her a moment of attention. She also swore she would do whatever it takes to "be somebody", "no matter what"- looks like she's managed to hit the right casting couch because she certainly has no more skill now than she did in those days! Glad to see she still has the right people to make her look good because her acting is as awful as ever! Joss must have really been taken with this one (gee, I wonder what she did to impress him? And, did the impressing extend to his brother, as well?) because she certainly did not get the job due to her skill or abilities as an actress (believable or otherwise)!' Proof or it didn't happen. What's the poiunt of personal attacks on someone on the internet because they 'suck' at acting? Anyways, Dishku is no acting champion but she's nowhere as bad as some claim.

"As it happens, sleeping enemies who are then targeted by a horror spell suffer maddening nightmares that deal severe damage to them, instantly killing most weaker foes." Sweet.

"It's really really good fun, it's like playing a superior, gonzo 1E AD&D pen and paper campaign. Kudos to the developers for making an old gamer very happy and more power to your elbows!" Kiddin' right? SOZ is a horrible old skool game. yes, it's old skool. But, it's horrible. Good oldskool games are the GB ones.

"Week two results: Volo: 12-4 GD: 8-8 Enoch: 5-11 Kelverin: 5-11 Season Totals: Volo: 24-8 GD: 19-13 Kelverin: 17-15 Enoch: 14-17" WOO HOO! The football 'moron' is in the lead... for now!

NHL 09 - Just reached my league's championship final for the first time in 8 seasons. NHL 10 - Franchise, and EASHL

Meh. Big deal. Good for him. Besdies, they're just cheerleaders no matter what they are called. Not even a real 'cage'.

Money/Power vs. Appearance - Which is really the most shallow?
Volourn replied to Kaftan Barlast's topic in Way Off-Topic
I personally find neither shallow. Everyone has their wants and needs. You should be with wheoever you are attracted to. The problem is some will marry a rich person even if they're not really attracted to them. That's shallow. -
"I'm not sure that you can say that without experiencing the story." I absolutely can. It only takes some imagination, effort, and willing to add extra stuff. It's very much possible. They simply chose not to.

"I remember seeing Mike Peca, when he was an Oiler, skating around and tapping people that had their heads down instead of hitting them. The more veteran players tend to not bowl people over, even though Peca more than had the ability to." Most veteran players do not do that. I don't recall Peca doing that, but if he did, he was a rare breed. As for 'more veteran players' tell that to guys Pronger, Stevens, Messier,, Howe, and 100s more. L0LZ

"Well, a short cutscene about how the world gets destroyed, and then load game, wouldn't be bad." So you would want it to be like FO1 when you join the Master, get turned into a Mutant, and then get a game over screen? Sounds kinda lame, and a waste. Might as well just say game over, then. That said, I wish BIO would have a way that you can play the game and not be a Grey Warden. That be my ideal. there is no story reason why it should need to be forced on you. Period. The only reason it is is because BIO says so, and they made the story with that in mind instead of using imagination to deal with it. Plus, it avoids extra work.

Mocking him by calling him Celine isn't all that impressive either. Just sayin'.

"He isn't impressing anyone" Got proof of this?

Jerry Jones is awesome. He loves his team, and tries to do what he can to win and succeed. That's all that should be needed. Kissing up to punks is boring stuff that cowards do.

I don't mind the after thewhistle play but I wish refs would call more peanlties for it. It's funny that you can smash someone a dozen times with no penalty call but you poke check the goalie just once it is an auto call. L0L Plus, it eats up valauble time when you could be playing the game. Still, it can be fun.

Fighting in NHL 10 is absolutely horrible. It's button smashing at its worst, and the 1st person view is pathetic.
-
Play NHL 09 to finish up my league's S8 playoffs, and NHL 10. "though in the online mode it seemed almost impossible to score" Nah. Harder than 09 currently mainly cause it takes time to get used to the new goalies and passing.

"What I intensely dislike, and borderline despise is their self promotion, (just compare AP dev diaries and DA presentation clips) which I could come to terms with if not for their attitude. Unlike Obsidian where devs openly admit their mistakes and the problems of their games, the guys at Bioware have an opinion of their infallability, probably strengthened by the rabid fan base, and they tolerate no criticism." FDalse. BIo accepts criticism. In fact, they've admited mistakes multiple times. You, obviously, just ignore it because it would disprove your point and show your hatred as the delusion it is. Self promotion? Every company self promotes including Obsidian? And, why shouldn't they? It be illogical if they didn't. Unless they want to fail. If you don't promote yourself nobody else will. As for their characters being 'repeats'. This is baloney. While characters share similarities theya re not the same. The closest to characters being the 'same' is Bastilla and Aribeth and even they have differences. It's also not like Obsidian or other companies are any better at this. NWN2, KOTOR2, SOZ, and others all have the same sort of stereotypes. Nothing wrong with this, imo. "For those reasons I bash them, and will bash them until they change their ways, and offer some f-ing innovation." So you gonna demand innovation when you are repetive? L0LZ "I hate to say it but there was, in fact, more innovation in Fallout 3 over Oblivion, than there was in any Bioware game after Baldurs Gate II." No. First off, you don't hate to say it as you love to bash BIO. Your hate on for them is incredible, and borders on psychotic. Why not simply move on, and ignore them. Second, there was NOTHING innovative about FO3 over Oblivion. And, guess what? There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. Plus, BIO's games continue to ad/twink things. And, most importantly, they are MOSTLY fun even KOTOR which is overrated and their worst game. Innovation, in the end, is absolutely overrated. Fun is what matters. If you don't find BIo's games fun move on. But, you won't. 'Cause bashing something you hate seems to be the in thing on the net instead of concentrating on thinsg you actually like. *shruG*

"but he'll also watch twenty go in because he's too lazy to backcheck." Nah. Simply not true. Sharks are gonna be awesome. And, Heatley is a proven playoff perform so this 'choking' nonsense should be stopped for the Sharks this season. They get to the 3rd round for sure (unless they get stuck with Detroit earlier which is bublikely unless DET gets lazy during RS).

"think the thing in Bastilas corruption is the same thing that bothers me in ME often. In ME, you meet people who are absolute sure about their cause, and then they change completely their minds when Shepard just says "Hey, come-on" and smiles" Actually, this happens pretty much in every RPG ever created or heck any game that includes some sort of dialogue that has consequences where you can 'convince' others on stuff. Time is, for the most part, ignored.

"90% of the time it was me against the enemies with my companions dead after a few seconds." Wow. You had bad luck. My companions rarely died.

Sees suspicious they would close it down so quickly without disucssing details. If he's innocent then shouldn't be charged with firing a false police report? Did he atcually choke her to 'stop' her from leaving his house? Did she exaggerate? Was she actually drunk? Was he drunk? What's up. It seems to clean, and lack of mess to simply say 'not enough evidence to prosecute'. The police have charged people with very little evidence before. In fact, often times people get charged simply because they're accused in 'domestic disturbances' cases. So what's the issue here? What are they hiding? Is it a case of bias of noble football player vs icky reality star? Hmmm....
