Keep 'em high I say, I want to see classic after classic when I visit a review site.

Well yes, he's not exactly proclaiming himself the sensitive type. Racism still sucks though.

You want an action RPG that isn't hack 'n slash? Hmm....Fable?

Burn the heretic!

You solved the butterfly puzzle? Wow.

I don't know how brainy you are but Monkey Island had me playing for a lot over 6 hours. It took me weeks to get some of the puzzles.

Here's hoping Obsidian have a decent voice budget for NWN2, the first NWN didn't have the best VO imo.

I don't know about hardest, but the game I put most effort into was completing Doom on the hardest difficulty with a keyboard (this was before they added the Nightmare setting in a patch). Damn, that was a good game.

Well there is a bit of a story behind it. Which is that they couldnt get the game to work in the proper resolution and still run at 60 fps. It's the willingness to cut quality corners to make deadlines that set the alarm bells ringing. Oh came across this too and it made me laugh (might help if you played Shadow of Collosus buy anyway). If your wonder what "collusus that is, it's the 360 power supply. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You could help monkeys evolve with that thing!

Unless that bad guy has something akin to the density of concrete for bone mass, then he wouldn't be able to support all that weight without shearing his limbs with the sheer moments of force ... " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But he's got a magic sword.

great cd <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mellon Collie has even got better with age for me, and I liked it a lot back in the day. It's full of gems. It's the only Pumpkins album I ever had though.

If NWN2 sells a million copies there'll be expansion packs, guaranteed.

The official site is just up. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/

So the WoW expansion is hours away from being announced, but some details have been leaked already for those who haven't heard. # New profession, Jewelcrafting, which will allow for slotting and modding items ala Diablo 2. # New Blood Elf starter area and zones north of the Eastern Plaguelands, Silvermoon (their Capital City), Ghostland, and Zul'Aman. # Epic FLYING FREAKING MOUNT useable only in Outlands. # The name is Burning Crusade. # Takes place in the Outlands. # Small upgrades to the graphics engine (BE will have 20% more polygons than original races for example). # Weather effects added. # Exploring how to add in cross server Battlegrounds. # Level cap raised to Level 70. # 2 new races, Blood Elf (Horde) and TBA (Alliance). For some reason, I'm most excited about the weather effects (if they really are being implemented) as its something I always wanted to see implemented from the start and it worked so well for the atmosphere in Morrowind to be in the middle of a lightning storm. There are rumours that the alliance race is going to be Pandaren but the evidence for this is an extremely suspect screenshot that's probably seen some photoshop twiddling. I'm not over the moon about Blood Elves, there are already hundreds of pointy ears in the game as it is but it doesn't really bother me one way or the other. Ogres would have been cooler.

Oblivion is out on PC and Xbox on the day of the 360 launch (2/12) in the UK at least.

You mean like a game that encourages mods to be built?

For those in the UK, play.com have Civ 4 for

Well, gee, it didn't harm the KotOR community any. Using that logic KotOR 2 forums should be at Bioware as well. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah but the mod community are less likely to flock to a different board, NWN is all about the mods where KotOR isn't.

Much as I would like the NWN2 forums to be here at Obsidian, it wouldn't make any business sense to split the NWN community in two.

There's some more up at NWN2News as well, you need to register to be able to see the Gallery though. Looking pretty good, especially the shot of the indoor fire.

That's sad news, hope you guys are doing ok.

World of Warcraft has different mounts for each race.

Hyping their own website...don't they get enough attention as it is?

There's some bizarre ASCII pictures of a pigeon with and without a hat on the battle.net site if you highlight the whole page.

Mark Morgan also did the soundtrack to the Fallout games, I think he does mostly TV shows now.
