The Revolution IS coming!
Mario 128 is a spy-thriller much akin to MGS and Splinter Cell. Bank on it! "Oh noes Luigi! Its-a gonna destroy Mushroom Land if I'sa don't stop it!"

Civilization 4
The demo runs great on my machine. I guess I will continue my trend of never experiencing what other people do with respect to game problems. Not that I mind of course. Maybe I have good karma, and this is how it pays me back. Though I'd rather put it towards other things if I could

Xbox Live: Racist haven?
The problem with the internet is that it's exceptionally hard to enforce. Sure you can ban a guy from a server, but he just anonymously jumps to a different one.

Baldur's Gate 2:SoA
Hehe, I was all about the Breach too. I also had my main character as a Paladin that equipped the Carsomyr which would dispel many things as I wailed on people. It's a fun game, but I found it to be a bit too much of a munchkin gamer's wet dream

Buying games online.
That's odd. http://www.webhallen.com/prod.php?id=7713 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't think there's anything odd about a store being out of stock. It's not like they weren't selling it. They just didn't have the stock.

360 games even more expensive than Xbox ones
I would have figured there'd be some sort of OMGz0rs statement from him.

The end is the beginning is the end.
I've heard rumours that EA had to cut stuff from their EA Sports lineups to make the launch (I consider my source somewhat credible too). Any truth to these statements?

NHL is back
In other news, the Oilers are 8th......two points out of 2nd!

It could be possible that he was hired to go onto the forums and post. Now that the game has been released, it's not necessary. I remember a guy that was clearly hired to post his party's propaganda during an election on one forum. Once the election results had been come in, he just upped and vanished like a fart in the wind. Though I have a feeling that's not the case with Epiphany.

Bloodlines is making me Angry
I've always used guns at some capacity (I have played as Toreador and Ventrue), so I'm not too sure. But there are points where I would think ranged weapons would be rather useful!

Baldur's Gate 2:SoA
I always preferred Jaheira in that game too! EDIT: On a side note, why on Earth would you use the "Ease-of-Use" mod. I'm not familiar with any of the mods, but it seems all it does is make the game rather easy. And I didn't really find BG2 to be that difficult to begin with.

Ender Watch '05
I don't think it was just that no one did anything about it, but that the whole ordeal ended up with him on moderation status for some reason.

Influence: a success or failure?
If you wanted the Darkside experience, than you should have played darkside. Don't compromise your character simply to make people that you ultimately wouldn't care a whole lot for happy. I love the concept of the influence system. The only setback of it IMO is that it wasn't fleshed out as well as it could have been. The characters wouldn't really change, which resulted in Atton giving me crap when I was evil, even though he was more darkside than I was. A shortfall of the game (much like the previous KOTOR) is that the lightside perspective is more polished. But don't blame the influence system because the darkside part of the game was not done as well as the lightside. As for the complaints because it made it too hard to "jedify" or be good buddies with every character.....that's precisely why it was put into the game.

I got her back!

NHL is back
I've had it happen a few times where a post I made gets placed into the wrong thread. I wonder if Fionavar just had that happen to him. In the future I'll make sure to not make any conjectures that the Oilers always win when I don't watch them

NHL is back
Not surprisingly, I was unable to watch the game.....Oilers win.....against Calgary!

Most difficult game you have ever played

As a matter of fact I can. One more day to go on the project, then it is mine! Muahahaahahhahahahahaha (evil laugh seemed appropriate).

That perfect Christmas gift...

Buying games online.
I'm introverted too, but talk like crazy on the Internet as well. I'm guessing the Structural Functionalists would consider the internet to be serving a function in my life (i.e. expressing myself). Though I'm much less shy/introverted than I used to be though.
-
The end is the beginning is the end.
I remember the XBOX had some release problems. I think the PS2 did as well. How about the DC? I don't remember any release problems with the PSX or N64. Neither do I remember them with the SNES/Genesis and previos generations. Is this a new thing?

Civilization 4
OMFG you bastard! Must resist downloading until after Friday!

The end is the beginning is the end.
I agree with Metadigital that the main selling point of consoles is that they should not have to go through growing pains. They should work immediately.
