Maybe more like Clive Barker's Undying. Or maybe even Half-Life....with a bit more spookiness and a bit less action.

I got raising the bar for free with my collector's edition :D I think part of the charm of Half-Life is being in a WTF is going on type setting. As for the "derailment" the original post asked me to post my thoughts on Halo 1 and 2. And unfortunately that requires me to state "overhyped" and point out a game that I feel is much better, despite being released years before.

Considering Bethesda themselves said they weren't too thrilled with everything that came after FO2, and how they were huge fans of FO and FO2.

I expect it to be a lot more action oriented than Silent Hill was. From what I understand, you're part of a F.E.A.R. team (First Encounter Assault Recon.....I think they were just looking for something to fit the Acronym!) responding to a call of paranormal creepiness. It looks like a good chunk of commando type combat against more humanish enemies at times, but at the same time you see some absolutely creepy shyte. The girl takes the cake. I can totally see myself crapping my drawers once I see her just because of what [little] I know about her And GoA, the haunted house scared me too. Best level in recent memory. I quit playing because it was 3 in the morning when I got to that level. I played it at noon the next day and it was still scary :D

Thats D&D and d20. Never in the history of Elder Scrolls games have EVER armor hurt spellcasting but it was only possible to cast spells without holding anything in the hands. I read a explination they done so to remove the need of a player to having to "read magic" but that is bull****, they already made it so when you press the attack key your will automatic ready weapons and strike so such system would be implement in relation to magic as well. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well if that's all that's wrong with the game, then I guess we have a real winner here.

What experience did Bioware have with AD&D RPGs (or RPGs in general) before Baldur's Gate? What experience did idSoftware have making FPS games before Wolf3D? What experience did BIS have with a D&D RPG before Torment? I could go on.

Unfair question!!! Jessica Alba is also might attractive!

Yeah, and Peter is gone too. On the Oil front, Pronger signed for 5 years!

Yeah. There's leafs fans everywhere!

Hahaha, it was kind of silly seeing all the Calgary banners in Edmonton. I figured I was in the twilight zone or something. Given the fact that we'll play Calgary like 8 times this year, I suspect the rivalry will be coming back. The additional competitiveness is also useful, as the cheering for Calgary was as much cheering for Canada/Alberta/smaller market teams.

Do you need to acquire OpenGL? I know there are parts of it that have costs, but it does stand for Open Graphics Language.

Here's hoping :D It's certainly where the bulk of the moves in the west have occurred. Calgary really beefed up. McCarty and Amonte, and they just secured Iginla for a 3 year deal.

So your pissed that you don't have to switch away from weapons, but have a penalty if you're wearing armor? To use your example...you were upset because that uber-sword shot your defense through the roof, but are now lambasting it because armor users are less effective spellcasters......

If only I could speak polish :\

Is there any other Swedish superstar left in Free Agency? The two that come to mind are Forsberg and Naslund. Maybe they'll be acquring Mats Sundin. EDIT: Ooooo, it IS official. I guess it's different than in other leagues. In the NBA, the deal would not have been allowed since it would go over the cap...they would have had to get rid of Roenick first.

Correction, 1 MB = 1024 KBytes. 1 KB = 1024 bytes 1 byte = 8 bits etc etc.

Ah yes...sacred. What a gem that was. The old system being the previous Elder Scrolls game? Pressing a damn key? Do spells just cast themselves without player input?

Hmmm, Philly would probably like to fill the void created by Leclair and Amonte. I don't know how much free room they have after signing all those defensemen

I'm not overlooking Peca's holdout. I've stated my reservation. In fact, you even quoted it.

I wonder the alignment of the stars has changed and if Edmonton WON'T play Dallas, should both teams make the playoffs.

What game does have mounted combat? And how would you rather spells be handled?

Yeah, part of my reservation over Peca was the fact that he had held out. As for young defencemen in Edmonton, don't forget Alexei Semenov and Marc-Andre Bergeron. Both are very young players with mountains of potential. I think the Oilers will probably focus on someone, and probably anyone, that can fill up the net. You are underestimating the value of my soul!! At the very least, there's still Forsberg hahahahah I like to live in fantasy land on occassion. Still....it WOULD be awesome. What better way to get back at Dallas than to sign with Edmonton! Right? Right?

Yet they probably still get these games

I would consider Pronger and Peca to still be professionals. And at the same time, I consider Smith to also be professional enough to understand that these guys are also leaders, and not go on a power trip either. Still offering my soul for a Modano acquistion :D

And what reasons would those be? EDIT: GoA, don't forget Groin of Despair!
