  1. Well, THAT looks good. Thanks for posting it. The options available there are very interesting. Hopefully the rest of the game is like that. Plus, SECKS MINIGAME!
  2. Uh... Oblivion had the whole "come with me upstairs" dialogue thing. Everyone knew how Oblivion's dialogue would work from that, and what it would be like. Not to mention, if you had played any of the Elder Scrolls games before, you pretty much knew what to expect. I'm haven't seen a single demo of a conversation in the Witcher. I can keep waiting, though.
  3. Still not impressed. It looks like Diablo III: Back in the Habit of the Legend of Curly's Gold. I'm still waiting for them to show some actual dialogue rather than a 10-second snippit of the game cutting to letterbox mode with a guy telling you what to do. That's not an RPG. It's an action game. Like Diablo.
  4. Or, better yet, stop playing with it resting on the carpet next to your heating unit. Noob.
  5. Reboot. It'll work then.
  6. Maverickshane is the NWN2 PR guy.
  7. Yeah, then I don't think you'd enjoy the third one. Why would you expect otherwise? I didn't find it worse than the other two. I think it may be better (perhaps due to "newness") simply because I found it more fun. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just because I don't think a movie is "very good" doesn't mean I think it is "bad." I enjoyed the first two, mostly because there was emotional porn. Characters were developped, and there was some interesting interactions between the characters. I saw the movies because people ranted about how great they were. I watched them and thought they were good, but not very good, certainly not great. In contrast, most people (at least most I know) seem to hate this movie. They all comment on how unbelievably shallow the character development is. How dull the story is, and how unbelieveable it is (as in disbelief, not as in "ZOMG AWESOME"). Plus, I'm convinced that if Gandolf and Picard had babies, they would be the coolest people alive.
  8. I've seen it twice already. It certainly doesn't stink to high hell. If you're too attatched to your precious comics then you might not like it. As someone who is more familiar with X-men lore more than the average Joe (but I'm far from a know-it-all), the movie works perfectly. Did they take some artistic liscense? Sure, but you have to when you've only got one (hell, even three) movie to cram everything in. People are wanting/expecting WAY too much. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It has nothing to do with "my precious comics." In fact, I hate most comics. If what everyone (and I mean everyone I know) says is true, its all flash no substance. Call me crazy, but I'd like a little character development in my stories. Everyone has told me that the movie tried so hard to jam pack everyone they conceivably could in this movie. They tried so hard that they didn't even develop any of the characters beyond "this is your name, this is your power, you're on this side. Action!" I didn't think the first two X-Men movies were very good, and by most accounts this is worse.
  9. Pyro has never, to my knowledge, been able to create fire. In the comics, the cartoon and the movies he can only manipulate it. Haven't seen the movie, but I've heard it stinks to high hell.
  10. Birthdays are for emoz.
  11. Create a tribute game dedicated to the greatest game in the world. Complete with gleaming halo around my head and banishing the demon who made the request. Actually, most of my short term goals are complete/in the process of being completed. Much like Eldar, my goal is to complete a fiction piece.
  12. Are you going to be a whiney bitch today too? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Love is in the air.
  13. Your face is poopey and your butt is too!
  14. Omitting anything too old or obscure... GeForce 440 MX SE (I was a poor student). Sapphire ATi Radeon 9800 Pro & Leadtek GeForce 5700 FX ULTRA Leadtek GeForce 6800 GT eVGA GeForce 7800 GT The 9800 Pro was the last ATi card I'll buy until I find sufficient proof that ATi has improved their driver support.
  15. ...because switching disks during install is like pre-gaming before you party! D'uh!
  16. Uh... give ANYONE those three effects and they'd be next to impossible to hit. Fanboism 2 teh maXXX!
  17. How dare you try to use logic here!
  18. Damn it. I wanted another Frag Dolls thread.
  19. Do all dogs REALLY go to heaven? 6 monthes.
  20. Blast... our secret is out.
  21. I have an eVGA 7800 GT (PCI-E version) at home, and I run Oblivion with pretty much everything max. I get anywhere from 15-40 FPS with not terrible slow downs. The problem with forums is that they are there for people to bitch. When everything is going right you don't hear a peep from them, so it often seems like all products suck if you just read forums. I don't recommend getting a Power Supply before 400W. I use a 420W. You can skimp on some things in a computer, like RAM or sound card, but Power Supply and motherboard are 2 things you do not want to be cheap items.
  22. The telecom companies are basically trying to say "we're trying to IMPROVE the internet, by providing you, the end user, with the best services, and using the money made to make the internet faster." The knee-jerk reaction from everyone on the issue is "get your government off my internets!" That is where the big problem lies. The problem with posting at work is you type off the cuff and make lots of errs.
