  1. Ruins of Taris, and out into the Unknown Regions. I would rather there be less planets and more detailed exploration of a single planet. Map it out so that you can go to different parts of that planet on a World map.
  2. Cloth map and a bacon and cheese sandwich.
  3. Oh wow, sliced tomatos with sugar coated onto them. You don't get much more Chinese then that. Where is the er guo tou?
  4. Any of the Exile or Avernum series, Nethergate is also really good. www.spidweb.com
  5. Combat Missions, not technically Turn based.
  6. If you don't like Gothic 2 you won't like Gothic 1, Gothic 1 has no mouse controls.
  7. I already know your a total NWN fanboy. I still stand by what I said and NWN is a piece of crap. I have never played such an awful game that received such high praise. The OC was mind numbingly bad, NWN only had two redeeming features, the implmentation of the DnD rules, and the fact you could make your own scenarios.
  8. Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, pretty good but not as good Park's prior to works in the trilogy.
  9. NWN, just awful, and the worse part is, it got an accolades all around, definitive proof the Gaming Press is in the pockets of publishers.
  10. Personally I never bother even hooking up the LED lights, what a waste of time. When I do, I do it once and if I did it wrong I never bother fixing them. The only thing thats important in that part is hooking up the front usb cables if your lazy like me and don't want to reach to the back everytime you plug a usb device in, that along with the power and restart buttons. If nothing shows up disconnect everything except video card, memory and cpu from the motherboard and boot the computer up and see if you get a memory test. If you broke up the back plastic of the PCI-E slot as long as the card stays in place you are okay. I dunno maybe it will affect warranties. As always when installing computer components always carefully consult your motherboard manual.
  11. Here is another great one. Youkali: Tango Habaneray Kurt Weill C
  12. Take This Waltz - Leonard Cohen Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry There's a lobby with nine hundred windows There's a tree where the doves go to die There's a piece that was torn from the morning And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take this waltz with the clamp on its jaws Oh I want you, I want you, I want you On a chair with a dead magazine In the cave at the tip of the lily In some hallways where love's never been On a bed where the moon has been sweating In a cry filled with footsteps and sand Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take its broken waist in your hand This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz With its very own breath of brandy and Death Dragging its tail in the sea There's a concert hall in Vienna Where your mouth had a thousand reviews There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking They've been sentenced to death by the blues Ah, but who is it climbs to your picture With a garland of freshly cut tears? Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take this waltz it's been dying for years There's an attic where children are playing Where I've got to lie down with you soon In a dream of Hungarian lanterns In the mist of some sweet afternoon And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow All your sheep and your lilies of snow Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz With its "I'll never forget you, you know!" This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz ... And I'll dance with you in Vienna I'll be wearing a river's disguise The hyacinth wild on my shoulder, My mouth on the dew of your thighs And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook, With the photographs there, and the moss And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty My cheap violin and my cross And you'll carry me down on your dancing To the pools that you lift on your wrist Oh my love, Oh my love Take this waltz, take this waltz It's yours now. It's all that there is
  13. Quick saving in any action game right before a rocket hits me in the face by accident. Quick saving throughout the game without making any additional save slots.
  14. Those two look exactly the same to me except the second one the wall is at a greater incline, there a greater sense of perspective. Is that it?
  15. What I don't understand is Anistropic Filtering, I can never tell the difference.
  16. Namco making a PC Warhammer Fantasy game? Weird.
  17. Saw Ran, kicked ass. Saw Memoirs of A Geisha, blew hard.

    Books!

    Just finished the unabridged War and Peace last night. Massive work, recommend it if you have the time. Personally I am a fan of Haruki Murakami I loved Norwegian Wood, other then that Patrick White, David Mitchell to name a few contemporary authors. Ha Jin's Waiting was also very good.
  19. Dark Sun, Warhammer 40k, or Dreampod 9's Heavy Gear universe. All those would be interesting.
  20. FEAR was good, really really good. It had a good AI but what really impressed me was the sense that you were the character when you walked down a ladder you would physically see your turn around, when you get up from a fall you could see how you got up. More then that FEAR had really good weapon mechanics they aren't just rehashes of the same old formula of pistol, shotgun, machine gun, etc, even when they were there changes on the old formula, such as letting you akimbo pistols. To that there was also the inclusion of physical attacks beyond hitting the enemy with the blunt end of your gun (kicking them). The other thing was FEAR had really good sound effects. The AI was of course really good, sometimes they would roll out of windows or kick overf tables to create cover but it was definitely the interaction and more then that the strong emphasis on story telling that did it for me. We haven't seen alot of FPS' that puts such a emphasis on storytelling besides Half Life in awhile. I played FEAR on a AMD 64 bit 3200+ with 1 gig of ram, 6800 on 1024x768 with 2xx AA and nearly everything set to max and the game ran fine until the end when it started lagging so I had to tone it down to 800x600
  21. Visa. The fact she had that veil on made her more appealing and I am quite convinced the person who modelled her paid extensive attention to the lips because she has very full and luscious lips.
