  1. "There's also this horrible Chris Priestley who shuts down any thread by the slightest notion of Bio criticism." False.
  2. "affirmative action. This is because they aren't racist southerners" 'Affirmitive action' *is* racist. btw, You seem rather racist towards whites. Tsk, tsk. And, the last comic has so many holes in it it's embarassing.
  3. "Judge not and you shall not be judged... " I don't mind being judged.
  4. Great entertainer in his prime. Dissapointing human being.
  5. "There are several folks who seem to be anti-Dragon Age, but most of them even say they plan on buying it at release." THAT is the Codex Defined.
  6. "Although I think whoever comes out ahead between the Eagles and Giants is the clear favorite in the NFC. " Giants will likely make the playoffs, and might make the 2nd round but they ar eno real threat beause they lack a big time receiving threat. Their betrayal of their fans is absolutely disgusting!
  7. Nah. They'll just make BIOWARE 2.
  8. I'm sure, barring injuries, Favre will do alright. Despite the season ending late last year (partly due to injury), he had a pretty good season (a PB one albeit probably abit undeserved). As for this season, I'll predict 10-6, division title,nfc championship elimination. But, I don't care as long as he gets to laugh at GB as he does better than them since they betrayed him and spit in his face.
  9. GAME OVER, bio, GAME OVER
  10. "You know that's not what Killian meant." Sure, I do. he said fantasy is fantasy. Well, both NWN OC and PST are fantasy. So is BG2, ARC, FF, King Arthur/Merlin Legend, LOTR, and a host of others so accoridng to him they're all the same. Being in the same genre does NOT make you the same. Period.
  11. "Fantasy is fantasy, Volourn" And, Rock Music is Rock Music so Elvis = modern rock R00fles! Sports is sports so NHL 09 = Tiger Woods Tour 09. L0LZ RPG is RPG so FO = POR2 Fantasy is fantasy so PST = NWN1 OC Howsers!
  12. "But for an already mostly-finished deep and varied RPG experience yearning to let the action-RPG within free?" Considering one preview complained that the combat was *too slow* (largely because the combat is akin to the IE, NWN, and KOTOR), I seriously doubt you'll have to worry that the combat will be some super duper action game.
  13. "D:A world is supposed to have a dark, almost barbaric medieval feel (say Europe during the dark Middle Ages) yet there is no inequality between men & women." Eh? This is a silly argument. DA is NOT Ancient Medieval Europe. You cna have a 'dark' setting and not have it set in ancient europe. This is the same kind of losinga rgument about bashing the FR because it is 'loosely' based on Medieval Europe so some anal people mistake that for 'exactly like that time period'. It should also be noted that Dark. Medieval. Europe. did not have magic spells, dwarves, dragons, etc., etc. either.
  14. I disagree. there are RPGs are getting better and better. I am kinda worried about DA. I don't think it'll be good as ME2 (or as good as ME1 was).
  15. No doubt. And, the mayor wants to throw Burress in jail for 3 years for shooting himself when most people charged with what Burress is tend to get no jail time or very little jail time. L0L Stallworth got really, really lucky.
  16. "Volourn, little known fact, but anti-trust laws are actually designed to control monopolies, not punish the successful." Little known fact: That's their original intention, that's not always the case. In the end, they are often abused in order to punish the successful.
  17. This is all about power. EU wants to flex their muscles, and nobody likes anyone being successful hence whey MS is such an easy target because of how successful theya re. It's not their fault their 'competitors' are pathetic losers who need Big Pappa Gov't to come in, and steal MS's money. Many so claled anti trust laws are designed simply to punish the successful. Completely, and utterly disgusting as it hurts legitimate anti trust laws. Tsk, tsk.
  18. "Two things I noticed immediately was what I called "Baldur's Gating" i.e. immediately resting after any combat encounter to recharge spells / hit points etc just like in BG." Really? In all pnping since BG2 was released, I ahve never witnessed this weirdness. Must have occured in the last year or two since I haven't played much pnp in that time. Hmm..
  19. Grats Pens, and Malkin earned the Conn Smythe. I think both he, and Crosby deserved it but still good stuff.
  20. "As far as EA, EA is not going to make an RPG that relies heavily on a text interface, so I'm not sure what that comparison is worth." Weird. They're making DAO which will likely have as much text as pretty much any other RPG. But, I do agree that AOD should be fine when it comes to C&C.
  21. "you gotta point 'bout low magic or is you just making an observation?" You mae it sound like ARC was low magic. It isn't. As for your opinion that the game sucked, I'm not goin to go back and forth about an ancient game's quality. I do that way too much on the Codex. I'll pass it by here.
  22. Except Arcanum isn't low magic... though, it was a very good game.
  23. "Not Biowarian... It all leads to the same thing" This is simply not true. If it was everybody's interatcion with the reporter in ME would have led to the reporter being punched or the bug queen would have been killed every time or you'd have no chocie but to have sex with Liara. But, none of this is true so what you are posting is intellectually dishonest. That may fly on the Codex but not on the lovely Obsidian forums. P.S. AOD should be a good game.
  24. The fact that Atari let MOW be released shows the game, to them, is profitable. But, hey, how is Atari's BG3 where you can see the fear in the orc's eyes coming? How is that KOTOR3 non MMORPG coming? R00fles! NWN franchise is far from dead, and the fact that they're actually thinking of making NWN into a full fledge MMO goes to show that they believe in NWN's name value.. though, I think it won't be super successful, anyways. So, NWN like KOTOR is not really dead. Unlike, apparantly and sadly, BG. And, Fo was reborn and is now stronger than IT EVER WAS.
  25. "What game would that be, Volo?" Morrowwind.
