  1. I could never hit Cliffracers with a bow and arrow, even when I was aiming dead center. Don't ask me why. 3rd person was fine. The real secret to mastering MW combat was clicking the box that said "Always use best attack". Thankfully, combat is different in Oblivion, and will be more like Jade Empire. Now, if the AI is better than Jade Empire (some early reviews are really impressed with the AI), then maybe I won't fall asleep playing the game.
  2. People need to get over DX:IW. Spector had an obligation to back the game, as he was the studio director. You don't hear Feargus saying, "I've hired people to work on KOTOR:2, and I sign their paychecks but I think they're all idiots." Spector is a professional, and whether in retrospect he feels things were handled well or poorly on DX:IW, he's probably not going to say. If he worked on the game directly he is entitled to self-criticism, but it's really bad form for him to rip a current or former employee when it's not going to suddenly make the game better. What do you really expect from him? He had 20 really GREAT titles, and one that missed the mark that he didn't even work on, but we should all be bitter? Grow up, or change your name to Visceris.
  3. I enjoyed the remake to an extent, but the controls still suck.
  4. I've always heard that the XBox sold poorly in Europe, but I've also heard that partially it is because of the size and appearance of the XBox. Appliances and electronics tend to be smaller in Europe.
  5. In a point-based system, no one is going to be really good in everything as well because people who specialize in areas will be better in those areas than people who spread their points all over the place. D&D also offers very little to the player who wants to be the jack-of-all trades, and some players want that option. The multi-class/dual-class rules in 2E were flat out stupid and broken. Even most 2E fans admit that. I have never once ran into a problem with point-based systems where players didn't specialize in different areas. Again, if you are trusting your players to pick classes that will complement each other for the sake of creating a party, why do you assume players can't do the same with point-based systems?
  6. "Right now, we're thinking there will be five Autobots and five Decepticons," says Kurtzman. "But you know the ones everybody knows like Optimus Prime and Megatron and Starscream and Soundwave and Bumblebee. R.C. is gonna be in it." This just in from the screenwriters. No word yet on whether or not Bay is directing.
  7. Duke Nukem Forever will make House Party look like House Party 2.
  8. I'm guessing he's not an American.
  9. Is that where she loses her "flower" again? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wouldn't know since I didn't see the first one.
  10. That and ninja turtles get to eat pizza all day.
  11. I'm off to go take a shower.
  12. From my article on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A592643#portmanteau
  13. Bushido is not necessarily the desire to attack someone with a sword. It is the way of living life as a Bushi would, living with honor and having no fear of death.
  14. I completely agree. That's the clinching point of the arguement personally. If we believed there was no such thing as free will, wouldn't apathy and ennoi set in? I believe in free will, because I can't accept the reverse arguement.
  15. White Chocalte (sweet and smooth) and Caviar (coarse and salty)? Can you be serious?
  16. The terms in Clockwork Orange are Russian.
  17. Mindhunters, after bombing and losing tons of money, is being turned into a TV show, and Rush Hour 3 is beild held up because Chris Tucker wants rights over the editting process and final cut.
  18. It is not the absense of pleasure, but the absense of desiring pleasure. However for most people, they lead ascetic lives in trying to remove the desire.
  19. And then I could buy the Commander Keen franchise.
  20. That's because we got the technology from aliens. Stealth technology was derived from the SR-71.
  21. I seriously think the people who preordered the game should get the game for free at this point, or at half off.
  22. Oddly enough I prefered Dark Sun, where many PCs died.
  23. We'd totally have to stop the 3DRealms jokes. Who would we bag on now?
  24. Where would I put the bread? I'm confused.
