What a joke. The whiners who wnat to charge the girls are absolutely pathetic.

"To be profitable in Hollywood, movies must now cover most of their cost during the first week/weekend(from release day to following sunday, inclusively). If the film achieves such a "feat", a sequel is almost assured(like 80% sure). If not, the franchise is pretty much dead(like 80% "pretty much")." Not quite some true. Many movies do poorly in theatres; but then do really well in DVD sales that they continue on.

I'm with SP, I buy them to collect them. Just for fun. And, then I read them after I finsh the game once. For games like D&D, I'll also likely read the sections on spells, feats, and the like as well since I don't consider that 'spoilerish' as sometimes the strategy guide will explain clearer than the game itself or the manual on how spells and stuff work in game as opposed to pnp which is fair knowledge that we as players should know. Using them for spoilers is silly.

"Don't be an ass, Volo. The democracy in Iran is less of a pork-barrel than the US "electoral College" system. To compare it to a totalitarian regime just makes you look as ignorant as you are, which is something you should avoid, methinks." Wrong. To compare the 'democracy' of Iran to the US democracy only makes YOU look ignorant. 1. When the US voted in the President of the US; the Presdient has actual power and say on how the country is run. That's what democracy is - the people voting on who has the power. 2. When Iranians vote in the President; they voted in the Lap Dog for the Religious Rulers. The President of Iran is not the head cheese in Iran. Someone who is UNELECTED holds the power in Iran. Thereby, making Iran anything *but* a Democracy. Only someone who is naive, or blind to the actual facts believes Iran is a democracy.

Hahahahaha! NWN rocks. BEST GAME EVAR! And, it's graphics are still good for the most part ( a little blocky; but meh). Sure beats its contemprary MW which tried to pass brown poo from the company toilets as 'good graphics'. And, why do people constantly try to brag about NWN2 graphics by comparing it to NWN1? That's not nor should it be impressive. NWN1 was released in 2002, and NWN2 is being released in 2006. It *should* have better graphics. Let's comparing it to current games at least like Oblivion (*puke*), or the upcoming Gothic 3 (possibly cool). "and if it is multiplayer you want (for free) Guild Wars is probably much better anyway." Guild Wars is horrible. I overrated it when i first played, and regreated that after baout 5 hours of play. Great graphics, and an 'okay' character system. That's it. Everything else about it is completely blaisse.

"yes, they have a democracy" Yeah, and so did Iraq under Hussein. R00fles!

Hmm.. This si real tough. Like others, I can list a top 10; but it switches a lot... so I won't.... this time. "

"And Tom Poti is not a good defenceman Volo" Yes, he is, and his stats back it up. Repeatedly. By the way, good does NOT mean best, top 5, or whatever. It means good.

SECRETS UNVEILED: THE ADDICTION OF EVERQUEST II
Volourn replied to Llyranor's topic in Computer and Console
"he told me that Everquest was the game I described. I wanted to buy the first Dungeon Seige. " You bought the better game. You should thank him. And, I say that without ever playing EQ1, and while disliking MMORPGs in general. -
JE is wayyyyyy better than either KOTOR. It's noty even a contest. Those who disagree are better off being DS, and POR2. Those are the 'RPGs' more suited for them. P.S. Hades, you should really make up your mind which KOTOR you liked more. One day it's KOTOR1; the next it's KOTOR2.
-
LOL Good one. (P.S. That's not sarcastic; but laughter ) Anyways, "TP" is short for 'Total Package'.
-
Yes. It's 1 million times better than KOTOR. It's 2 million times better than SOU. It's 200% better than OC. It's 50% better than BG1. It's 1000x worse than NWN TP. It's 100% better than HOTU. It's 5% worse than BG2. That is all.
-
"By the way, Llyranor, no one reads your posts. No one at all. Literally." It's not nbice lie.. unless you cna get away with it. In this case you cna't so stop. Anyways, it's mostly PC and PS2 for me. Sometimes x-box for JE.
-
It's easy, and can be done within 3 seconds (if not quicker) and since each round is 6 seconds menaing you can't cast more than 1 spell per round (barring haste or quick spell) than it shouldn't matter how much you cna quick. I found it really intuitive, and rather quick.

SECRETS UNVEILED: THE ADDICTION OF EVERQUEST II
Volourn replied to Llyranor's topic in Computer and Console
Yes, I just bought EQ2 because my brother loves it, and wnats me to play it. It has broken my refusal of playing MMORPGs too though I don't know if I'm gonna pay after the first month because the controls are absolutely horrible. Great graphics, solid character creation/development, and world history. Plus, with my brother I'm guaranteed to have a party no matter hwat. Sill, the controls are absolutely horrid!!! Seriosuly, I would enjoy the game much more if the controls weren't possibly the worst ever. Hopefully, I'll get used to it within the next month. P.S. STOP SPYING ON ME AND MY GAMING HABITS! P.S.S. Soon, you'll notice my habit of playing porno games. -
No.

No.

Exactly! And, I'm physically challenged too! As I'm so ugly computers hate me!

"Radial menu in NWN was slow as hell. Basicly useless in combat." No. This is completely wrong unless you are physically handicapped. Sorry.

It should be noted that patch 1.67 is coming out soon - likely a month or so since they're in like the 3rd public beta test for it. As for needing patches. With the latest retail version (Platinum) you likely won't *need* patches; but 1.67 is promising a lot of new stuff including stuff found in the latest Premium Modules. Bio is also gonna have 2 new tilesets as well as an extra patch when it does. Like all BIO RPGs, NWN (all versions) have lots of combat as well as focus on story and characters. Whether you'll personally like said story or characters is really up to you. Us dinks could give you are opinions; but they are all opinions. For myself, NWN (espicially HOTU) offers more in terms of story, characters, and role-playing than KOTOR.

"Let us compare NWN 2 graphics to NWN 1, which NWN 2 looks completely kickarse." Yes, let's compare it to a 4 year old game. By doing so, you insult NWN2's graphics. I'm sure NWN2's graphics will be better than Oblivion becuase like MW, Oblivion probably has brown poo that Bethesda likely tries to pass off as 'good graphics'. The radial menu of NWN was better than TOEE's because at least unlike TOEE; it's radial menu didn't go off the screen. Add to that, the quick slots, it was a perfect combination. Hopefully, the NWN2 method is good as well since they decided to waste time taking out somehting from NWN1 that actually worked great. NWN's interface was easily the best interface ever, imnsho. May NWN2's continue to wow me in the tradition of this (still yet) short series.

"Time travelling lizards and a paladin with PMS try to take over the world." LOL Awesome description. :cool: Anyways, I'm biased as I love this game. Buy it. Since it's rather old; it is releatively cheap now so even if you end up disliking it; it won't be the end of the world money wise. As for henchmen/hirelings. In the OC, the joinable npcs are Expert Hirelings. In SOU, and HOTU the are actually henchmen since regardless what BIO and/or Obsidian tries to tell you henchmen are actually friends/allies you choose to do travel with you for personal reasons like freindship, loyalty, or whatever. In the OC, and SOU; you only get one npc. In HOTU, two npcs travel with you much like in KOTOR. NWN's combat system has more in common with the BGs than with KOTOR. Heck, it has more in common with TOEE than the KOTORs. KOTOR series is combat is just plain bland. The OC story is ok. It has its good points, and weak points. It's nowhere near the best; but definitely not amongst the worst. SOU's story is lacklustre; but it's role-playing (espicially in ch1) is very good. Ch2 sucks bad though. HOTU is good all around exccept it redefines phat lewt. HOTU, overall, is wayyy better than KOTOR series.

No comment about the radial menu. I made my piece, and will now move on as much as possible. Cool about the interview... :cool:

"Volo, pretend I'm digging up some info regarding Mark Messier to try to invalidate a point you are making." LOL :D At least you'll be back for the play-offs. Have fun!
