Gary Bettman needs to be fired! He';s trying to move the Rangers away from MSG!!!

ME is an Action RPG. It fits that 'new age' genre to a tee much like JE, and BL do as opposed to games like Diablo that try to pretend to be Action RPGs simply based on the fact they have levels and character generation/advancement.

"Have you ever raised a child to the age of 13-14?" No; buut irrelevant. I've done my share of wathcing young children, and do quite a good job of it. Thanks. " A child that young has a brain that is not fully cooked yet, and vulnerabilities that cannot possibly be a match for an adult on a mission of personal destruction. Would you blame a 6-year-old for her own death if an adult commanded that she stand in the middle of the freeway? Children are not simply small adults." 6 year olds are not teens. Rather poor comparison. Try again. " They are incomplete, mentally incapable of competing with an adult mind, and not able to properly evaluate the consequence of their actions. Taking the side of a malicious adult bully who knew this child and her emotional fralities, then took advantage of that knowledge to totally destroy her self-esteem and her reputation among her peers, the most important social group in a child of this age, is spiteful and ignorant, in my opinion." She's not a baby. She's a teen. I was a teen once. So were you. Teens - most of 'em , anywyas - are not like you describe. This teen's main problem seemed to be due to alck of parental awareness. Afterall, how do you expect this woman to know this girl was suicidal if her very own parents were apparantly not or at least they didn't precautions? Besdies, many adults are fragile. It's not like teens are the only people who commit suicide, afterall. "This woman cannot be rewarded for this despicable behavior." LMAO Talk about making up crap. I never said any such thing. Total insulting garbage. Rewrad this woman? LMAO Sayiong this woman shouldn't be charged does NOt equal 'rewarding' her. " You act as if emotional torture by an adult toward a child is simply an okay right of passage. It isn't." Don't tell me how I'm a ting. Never did I say what the woman did was 'acceptable'. But, hey, keep making stuff up about other sif it makes you feel morally 'superior'.

"But they really need to stop with this "the ancient race who created everything" schtick they've been using IN EVERY SINGLE GAME THEYVE EVER MADE." Lies never help one's point.

Civil court is anything about civility. It's about greed. And, nobody can be 'made' to commit suicide. Kinda ruins the only defintion of suicide, imo. At best, I think the guilty person shoudl be charged with harassment. "But if you throw a lit match at them, then you're the bastard who set them on fire." Well, yeah, because by throwing a lit match on them you are attempting to physically harm them. Taunting/teasing is not the same thing.

Dinosaurs are awesome. Awesome.

They fit in mine. Its logical. Big large monsters that want to kill you. Yup. Fit perfectly. Well, not counting the more docile dinosaurs. L0L

"I guess I'm looking for the same replayability that KOTOR had with their dark/light choice." ME is more replayable than KOTOR.

Dumb choice. Scumbag fans are the ones who should be fired!

So.. anyone who has ever been mean to someone who ends up committing suicide should be considered a criminal? WOW! the girl should have personal responsibilty. That's what suicide is - a personal decision. And, if she was having major problems perhaps her so called responsible parents should have done soemthing instead of playing the blame game after the fact.

"It seems you are unaware Volourn, that the Aurora engine in multiplayer is unable to hold a party larger 5 with 6 already pushing it, the server's performance. Often any party bigger than 6, even though there are 30 players online or just 8, will bring massive lag and server slow down just because of one party. Hence the DM always made it known whenever the quest he is DMing has more than 6 players involved, he will make a condition that the group is to be broken down into 2 parties instead of one." Must be playing a different NWN series then. I've been in parties of 10+ with no lag. And, in NWN2 OC, even when the pary was big (companions + summons+ familairs); lag wa snever really a problem no matter how many monsters tehre was. No different than with NWN1. At times the connection is bad but ity's usually an interent connection problem not game problem. I dunno what DM, or worlds you have played on. *shrug*

I recieved. I laughed. They cried. I moved on. They pouted. i win. They lose. Game over.

"I wonder if the engine could survive with 6 PCs" Umm.. The negine is made for multiple player. It can easily handle 6 PCs. And, NWN1/NWN2 engine(s) blows the IE. Their combat is better, the controls are better, it's all batter. IWD, while fun, is nno match for the gloriousness of Aurora. "The controls and functions still remains awkward and clumsy for a party based based single player games." Nah. The controls for party based single player is exactly how it is in the IE. Only better.

"NWN got 3 xpacs" Got 2 - SOU, and HOTU. You might be thinking of the the official module package disk they sold; but I wouldn't call that an expansion. And, I doubt the yaunti will be the 'main villains' at the end of the game. Only BIO seems to have the tendency to advertise their main villains. L0L If there is a 3rd expansion, I hope it continues SOZ. End of Zehir, should have you reahc level 20 and have to face a super end big bad dragon to give you a whooping welcome to epic levels. R00fles!

I find no difference between romance and non romance stuff. If anything, romances tend to lead to actual role-playing, and C&C compared to other stuff. meta gamey stuff is 100% laid on the feet of the player. Not the game.

"because almost all of them are ****," Thanks. Anyways, 4E seems a tad silly. This whole powers thing is just garbage. Why cna't fighters stick with feats. Why do many classes have the ability to heal when injuring someone? Why are wizard spells no more than any olther classes' powers. It takes away the who point of spells, imo. Ah well.. Only time I'll be playing 4E is any future D&D video games. Don't get me wrong. I'm sure the system is okay, and cna be found. But, from what i've read, it's worse than earlier D&D forms. That said, I had huge doubts about 3E; but it proved me wrong. Maybe 4E will, too. *shrug* It could grow on me.. like a fungus. L0L

"furthermore, you can't say "don't do it if you don't like it", because that's like saying, "if you don't like romance in your movie, fast-forward it" or "if you don't like this battle in the book, just skip over it"." Um.. Not the same thing. Games - espicially RPGs - are about options. There's always going to be optional stuff. If you don't like romances simply don't do them. It's not a movie; you aren't forced to do everything. If you are watching a movie, a romance is probably hgonna be a big part of it while romances in games the majority of games are just extra 'fluff' just like the optional dungeons.

Wild Dwarves Artic Dwarves Wish/Miracle Tons of other spells, skills, and feats Up to level 40 open (since they will likely be the last expansion anyways) Dwarven Champion PrC (or the equivelant) FUN!!!

Only when I kiss your mom. But, yeah, sadly, you tell the truth. At least I have NHL 08 to keep me busy when I choke again..

NHL 08 as always. NWN OC. NWN modding as I try to get back into it. to complete a module. Any module. or choke again. L0L

"Those guys have really won the cup all alone on occassion, Hasek never managed that in Buffalo." You could make that argument with Roy in Montreal; but not with Broduer who had a Scott Stevens fellow patroling his crease and crippling anyone who dared to score against Broduer. IIRC, Broduer didn't win a cup sans Stevens. And, Hasek had absolute crap in Buffalo. Was he there with Lafontaine (overrated but still solid player) at all? Also, while Detroit was a talented team back when Hasek first went there, they were basically throwing their goalies (including Osgood) in the trahs because they felt they were holding them back from another cup win.. and, lo, Hasek led them to the promise land... Hasek definitely deserves to be with those two. Afterall, he won 6 vezinas mostly against those two along with guys Belfour and Richter as his competition. Not exactly easy.

Hasek is awesome. I know Osgood is greta, and he hlped the Wings the cup; but he got screwed. He got yanked because he had an off game or so. Big friggin' hoo. All goalies do. Not like Osgood was perfect in the playoffs. And, heck, if the pens had thrown Fleury in the trash 'cause of one not so good game, he never would have finished game 1 versus the Rangers. Anyways. Hasek. One of the best goalies ever. No doubt about it.

The greatest series ever created continues!!! YAYA! New subraces could (and SHOULD! dammnit!) include jungle dwarves, and artic dwarves!!!! Hopefully, while the expansion starts at low level you can eventually grow into epicness!!!

"This time it is his responsibility again. He is Lead Designer on the game and he should follow the lead of his fellow obsidianate J.E Sawyer and David Gaider of Bioware. Heck, he did that during KotOR 2 development." We're not owed the developers posting here or interacting with us. The boards are here to discuss their games. That's it. Customers can be rather scummy, selfish, and egotistical. I hate 'em. As for the topic, ehh, let them have unlimited ammo. Don't like it deal with it don't buy the game. ME did have a good alternative to somewhat limit non stop gunplay without it. Still, ultimtarely, I perosnally prefer limited ammo. But, *shrug* 'tis life.
