That would be a decent analogy. EA = humongous.

LOLLIPOP! Ever since I've come back you always jump out at my posts in particular, even if I'm saying the same thing as others in the thread. I don't know what started your unhealthy obsession with me though. Hopefully you feel better soon

Right. Jeez, always following me around like that. Stalking is unhealthy

You're right. It is disputable by those who know sports.

Buying and crushing small companies (i.e. Bullfrog, Origin, Maxis). They distribute The Sims.

On the plus side, there's other new ideas that just haven't been thought up yet. When Fallout came out it was new and shnazzy. Nothing stopping the future from holding other such things.

Sometimes adding qualifiers is good. Eldar the Wise! It works, because Eldar is very similar to Elder, and don't we all want to be wise when we're elder??

Sooooo, are you going with the classical/traditional "princess" raising of a little girl, or are you going to force through your unfilled dreams of being a spectacular athlete through her? :D

Captain Awesome! or Spectacular Man!

I have no idea how much a SWAT member makes. SWAT members are usually ex-Military though anyways. I don't think you'd need to hire SWAT members, but just train soldiers that are already good candidates for SWAT teams as it is.

I like Eldar.

I'm pretty sure the Flurry animation was unchanged, but whatever. I preferred the KOTOR 2 storyline, even in its unfinished state. The big beef I had with the KOTOR storyline was that I had already played it when I played Neverwinter Nights. But people remember the twist and likely remember going "OMFGz0rs@!~!!!111eleventy-one" so that's probably why it does so well.

Who's that person with your wife in the first picture?? "

I've never had the glass break by a body check. I did break it once with a shot however. And I'm setting records for hits in a game :D

The fact that it had a good story makes it non-traditional in my opinion. I could stand for a few less traditional CRPGs like Dungeon Hack (!) and pretty much any of the gold box games. The best Ultima game also didn't have turn-based combat either, and the majority of Ultimas weren't isometric, nor did they have rule systems that played like PnP. Many of the old school CRPGs like the Wizardry series were games played in the first person perspective. This also includes the Gold Box games, as well as large parts of the early Ultima games.

Reminds me of a local CS server that used to exist in my area. The guy was crazy, and had like 7 servers running, 2 Day of Defeat and 5 Counterstrike servers, in addition to hosting a local web forum for everybody in the community to use, all free of charge. Then some guy thought it would be funny to hack the webpage. The next day, he closed down all the servers and basically just left.

You say it like it's a bad thing.

FerdinAllan was taken away to Castle Anthrax, at which point he was never heard from ever again.

They don't need to be. But simply having FPS elements or Action/Adventure elements doesn't make them bad. The wierd thing is that Rhomal complains because some developers didn't evolve, but at the same time complains at those that did.

Waiting Watching the clock It's four o'clock It's got to stop Tell him Take no more She practices her speech As he opens the door She rolls over Pretends to sleep As he looks her over She lies and says she's in love with him Can't find a betterman She dreams in colour, she dreams in red Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman Oh oh oh... Talking To herself There's no one else Who needs to know She tells herself Memories back when she Was bold and strong and Waiting for the world to Come along Swears she knew it Now she swears he's gone She lies and says she's in love with him Can't find a betterman She dreams in colour she dreams in red Can't find a betterman She lies and says she still loves him Can't find a betterman She dreams in colour she dreams in red Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman She loves him She don't want to be his friend She feeds him That's why she'll be back again Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman Can't find a betterman Can't find a better, man

It says a lot? How so? Scottie Pippen had career years in points when Jordan had retired. When Gretzky isn't the one putting the puck in the net, it makes sense for Messier to get more points. He didn't play on the same line as Gretzky, so he wouldn't have benefitted from having Gretzky get points. When you become the big dog, you're going to produce more offensively. It doesn't say "a lot." It says very little. To state the the championship in New York was due exclusively to Messier is a bit silly. I mean, having MacTavish go 100% in faceoffs in the final game didn't mean anything. And after all, Leetch was the MVP of Playoffs. How many Conn Smythe's did Messier win without Gretzky? Furthermore, how easier was it to develop a talent like Messier when you have a guy that can put 200 points up in a season. Jeez, go watch some of the old games, since it's clear you haven't. Messier was an excellent leader, but so was Gretzky.

Start contacting any software developers in your area if you can. Or, work on a mod. My friend pretty much got both of his jobs because he made a mod for Half-Life 2.

They let me have two different version of MSN Messenger running

I've seen Baywatch. No way he shaves his legs! He's all about hair = masculinity!

Messier's greatness is attributable to Gretzky, just as Gretzky's greatness is attributable to Messier. See if you can find Boys on the Bus.
