  1. Though there's no indication in that particular quote that she was the first. Though, unless Revan truly did have an absolutely insane number of masters, wouldn't the Disciple err and say that Dorak was after Kae, as he does mention him in reverse chronological order at a different point? EDIT: Wookiee...I was thinking the same thing. It's an ambiguous 'she,' but if he does not remember the trainer, then the she would likely mean Kae. That's how I read it.
  2. What user name were you trying?
  3. Well, if it's less of an idiot than most idiots, that's a good thing right?
  4. I never played the original Akalabeth. Was it first person in the same sense as the Ultima games (which were more and FPS like Eye of the Beholder style).
  5. Well, if we wanted it closed, just report it. Fio is pretty quick at closing with just a report. But where's the fun in that!?!
  6. If you go into a movie not expecting much, it's not hard to find something worthwhile in it. Very rarely do I watch a movie and feel left out, because most movies always land right around my expectations. He had a cool boat, and the action sequences were fun and entertaining IMO. I felt it was much more a comedy than anything else. Cheesy one-liners and all.
  7. Yeah, I was going to toss out some of the old Ultimas as well, though those weren't purely FPS games. At least not in the same style as Wolf3D.
  8. Not to mention a shift to Chaos.
  9. It comes out 1 day before my birthday...interesting.
  10. I enjoyed Waterworld too. Though I wasn't expecting a magnificent scientifically plausible story.
  11. It makes me sad that STALKER is vapourware, but I concur In other news, I turn 25 in 19 days.
  12. I enjoyed the old Nintendo version growing up. I liked it better than the PC version I had. I know there was also one that came out for the N64.
  13. No. There was an old game, The Terminator that came out for DOS in 1990 that was entirely a FPS game. The game also featured hijackable vehicles and driving (complete with distinctions between automatic and manual transmissions which you'd have to shift). You could play as either Kyle or the Terminator. If you feel like being anal about "who came first..." Though having taken part in the PC gaming industry at that time, I concur that Doom was the one that had the huge impact and changed the face of gaming, not Wolf3D.
  14. You could always experiment with the demo
  15. I already acknowledged the reference to human memory. I have taken psychology courses on human learning....no need to lecture me about it. But there's also 6 year old girls that can list off every president. What you say makes sense, if Revan had 50 masters. Considering having more than 1 is exceptionally uncommon, having more than Mical comments is even more exceptional. Your wording here confruses me a bit. There was no name listed by him after Kae. She is the very last name he lists- Disciple- "Master Vandar, Zhar, Dorak, Master Kae before Kae left for the Wars." So I'm going to ask you to rephrase as I did Jediphile a short time back. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There is no reason not to assume that the name mentioned immediately after Kae, was not Revan's trainer immediately after Kae (i.e. Dorak was after Kae). This is assuming the list is in reverse chronological order. Though during a talk between Mical and Kreia, he doesn't remember the trainer after Kae. So either the list isn't actually in reverse chronological order (is it mentioned that it actually is, or are you making a supposition?), or Kreia did her memory work (as BW indicated). I highly doubt Mical forgot because there were many trainers. The guy can go on for hours about pretty much anything. It's not like he's just taking a history class...the guy is a scholar that has actively researched the topic for an extensive period of time, given how he can tell you all about it just off the top of his head when you meet him on Dantooine. I still say you're manipulating the facts just to support your expectations.
  16. I guess with the new patch it had to reapply promotions, because Uncle Sam was handing out promotions left and right for consecutive kills once the "real game" got started.
  17. Nothing wierd about stating that Lego Star Wars is fun. It is!
  18. Is that a rabbit in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? I had too much sugar this morning. On topic, I thought you didn't like the idea of F3? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He doesn't like the idea of Bethesda doing FO3 because according to him (and others) they can't write a good story to save their lives. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well I agree with him partially. No one should be doing F3 unless it had Tim Cain and Feargus's name on it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I guess you just loathed Fallout 2.
  19. Well, count our blessings they actually delayed the game at one point then. With the patch I find MP fine.
  20. Click this meta. You know you want to.
  21. I love how the Blackhawk still seems to be >>> the other helicopters. I haven't shot one yet with a tank since I started playing, but it was kind of silly for them to survive direct hits from a 120 mm tank gun.
  22. Hey, I can't wait for it to happen to ours!
