My roommate finally caved and bought the game. I haven't had a chance to play yet since he's been hogging his X-Box (the nerve of him, eh?), but he's gone now for the weekend so I guess I've got a couple of days to play it. (w00t)

No he's not. Atleast not if you build him into an unstoppable melee tank. Only problem is you don't get Mira if you get Hanharr.

SW: Battlefront.....now there's $65 I wish I could get back in full. <_<

You're wasting your breath on him. Check his post history. His sole purpose for being on the forum is to troll and bash Obsidian.

But the Episode III game would have already been released by the time e3 rolls around. I thought they didn't show games that were already released at these shows.

So I guess we don't get a sneak peek at Fallout 3 "

Atari only has one booth (unless my eyes are going on me), which means what? I thought Atari had more games on the go other than NWN2. Bethesda 2 booths (Oblivion maybe? And...?) Bioware has 1 booth (Dragon Age already?) Lucasarts 2 booths (Empire At War? What else?)

KOTOR series.

edit: Nevermind. Got it figured out.

Does anyone know the item name to create a vampire stake? I need one but don't have one and can't return to where I can find one. I've checked a couple of cheat code sites but can't find the actual item number for vampire stakes.

Well I guess I'm 2 days late, but happy birthday anyways. Man he's getting up there in age. Pretty soon Feargie Jr. is going to have to run Obsidian.

Yes and no. Stover himself makes the book a great read. However, it's debateable whether the actual story he had to work with (ie. what you'll see on the big screen) was a top notch story. It seemed like in a few instances Stover wanted to go deeper into various aspects, but couldn't because of specific guidelines that Lucas gave him. He was allowed some leeway, but not to the point where he could "flesh out" some of the portions of the story like Stover's capable of. So I guess it will depend on whether you like RotS's story. If you do, then Stover did a great job. If you don't, then Stover did his best with limited subject matter.

Where :ph34r: ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Huh? I read the RotS novel that was released at the beginning of April....

I broke down and read the Episode III novelization. So I guess it's safe for me to play with lego again.

Chances of me being able to play it on my current computer: 0.00001% Chances of me buying a new computer by the time it's released: 0.50% Therefore to ensure that the latter is the case, I really need to find a good job to afford that computer.

I think the thing you have to take into account is that, atleast right now, game developers still focus their games towards a male audience. Thus, there is a path of reasoning that follows such as: a)since males make up a bigger percentage of the audience, it is assumed that they will choose a PC gender which mimics their own, and thus more people will choose to play as a male PC. Therefore given a), that would suggest that b)it makes more sense to have the main romantic involvement be the one to fall, and that entails making it the female NPC romance option that is the one who falls. Given a) and b), then it would make very little sense to build the story around a male NPC who is the one who falls, since most (in terms of target market) gamers wouldn't really care as much if their PC's male "buddy" fell from grace. It's more of an impact if it's your PC's romance option.

I'm rather curious myself what this game will be like. Numbers Man? Jags? Hades ( :ph34r: )?

Ouch. That sucks.

Seconded.

I've yet to get around to playing Morrowind. From the consensus on here, it appears that's a good thing.

Most outlandish collection of stories ever produced, and this is in context with the Star Wars universe. The Star Wars universe would have been so much better off if we didn't have to deal with this series and its setting the bar so ridiculously high in terms of showing off stupid force abilities and whatnot.

Actually, that quote would have been more apt if you replaced "Volourn" with "Drakron". Maybe I've missed it, but he seems to have nothing but negative comments for every game that's been mentioned on this forum.

I thought Kreia was the deepest of the villains in either KOTOR game. I'm a big Darth Vader fan, so I was tempted towards picking Vader Junior (aka Darth Malak), but his shallowness as a character prevented me from doing so.

Exactly. I don't really care too much (although I'd prefer to have Revan as male) about alignment or gender. What I do care about is them screwing up the levels. I know balance issues are already kind of out of whack, but dropping Revan's levels down just to suit being able to play him/her as the PC would be silly. I honestly think that IF they want to bring back Revan for KOTOR3, the best way to allow it is to have Revan show up, at most, as a NPC party member who joins near the end of the game (ie. helps out in the final battle). That way Revan can conceivably keep their high levels, while at the same time not being too uber powerful at the beginning of the game.

And if the PC is Revan, that will just open up a whole new can of worms. <_<
