Hell Kitty

I remember in the original GTA, one of the first missions pointed out that you could solve missions in different ways, and congratulates you when you kill the guy you just made a deal with to get your money back. That was the only mission is the entire series that offered and alternate solution. Whenever I tried anything else it usually ends in failure. Anyway, I'm happy calling Diablo an action/RPG and GTA:SA an action/adventure. GTA:SA has much, much more of what I would look for in a perfect RPG than Diablo, but it's also lacking a lot and it's parts are rather simplified.

They just liike like ordinary vanilla Star Destroyers with bits stuck on the side. Where are those ships from? A PC game?

Really? It sure get's my juices flowin'. Oh baby!

Oh, I know who all the other actors are, I just only ever saw a handful of episodes with them. As a kid I saw all the episodes with Baker, so to me, he'll always be the number one Doctor. And really, do any of the other Doctors have a voice as cool as Baker's? The answer is no.

Tom Baker is the only actor I watched as the Doctor. Therefore, Dr Who needs a scarf.

No, your explanation doesn't make sense. If Obi-Wan and Yoda look the way they do because that is how they looked when they died, then Anakin should also look the way he did when he died. He should appear as a ghost in the black Vader suit minus helmet looking all crusty and scarred. It never made any sense to show and older, unscarred version of Anakin at the end of the film, because that version of Anakin never existed. The original ending is the flawed ending because it completely absolves Anakin of any guilt by showing him how he would have looked if his Darth Vader persona never happened. Showing him as a young man before he was consumed by the dark side may not be to your liking, but showing him as an unscarred old man wearing Jedi robes makes even less sense. No, no, no. Like I said before, this is NOT what Lucas means and is a poor understanding on your part. Those who choose to submit to the dark side are consumed by the power of the dark side, but this does NOT mean he is possessed. Their is a huge difference which you seem unable to understand. It's like a drug addict - once they become addicted it is really difficult from them to stop, and they might do things they otherwise wouldn't have done were it not for there addiction, but that does NOT mean they are not responsible for their actions. Anakin committed acts that he might otherwise not have if he hadn't been consumed by the power of the dark side, but there is NOTHING in the film to support your silly idea that he has been possessed by some kind of dark side spirit.

Wrong. The idea is that the appearance of a Jedi is based on what they looked liked before they were consumed by the Dark Side. And that's exactly what happened to Anakin Skywalker, he was consumed by the dark side of the force, it's where he gets his power. That does NOT mean he is possessed by the dark side or some dark side spirit at all. This is simply a poor understanding on your part. George Lucas doesn't want you to think that anyone who uses the dark side does so only because they are possessed by an evil spirit therefore can't be held responsible for their actions, any more than he wants you to think those who use the light side do so only because they are possessed by good spirits and therefore can't take credit for their actions. The fact is that it never made sense for Anakin to appear as an old man at the end because he never looked like that. If the appearance of your ghost is determined purely by what you look like at the time of death, then Anakin should have looked scarred/burnt , bald and generally not very good looking at all. And unless Vader wore Jedi robes under the big black suit, the outfit was all wrong, too. In fact, it's the original ending, not the new edit, that supports for silly theory - some sort of cosmic force god power has decided that, even though Anakin did all sorts of bad stuff in his life, he should have his slate wiped clean and get to look like the old man he would have become were it not for the power of the dark side. The original ending is the copout "It wasn't him, it was the dark side!" ending.

It's true. He wears his undies on the outside.

I almost introduced myself as Hell Kitty, once. How embarrassing.

I liked it, but then, I'm easily pleased.

The PC version has not been delayed, it's the Xbox version that has been brought forward, apparently. Anyway, I didn't think it was coming out till later next year, so it's all good news to me!

Matt Damon is 5' 10"

Starship Troopers started out as Bug Hunt, before they got the rights to ST, just as I, Robot started out as Hardwired before they got the rights. I, Robot is a film that surprised me, for being a hell of a lot better than I would have imagined.

I'd love a serious take on feudal Japan in an RPG (as opposed to the typical western view, with ninja as action heroes and such). The only game I know of with a "realistic" take on samurai is Way of the Samurai on PS2 (WotS 2 recently came out here). It's a one-on-one fighter/adventure/RPG hybrid deal.

Bale is 6'2 and I recall him being fairly buff in Reign of Fire. He may not be up to comic book standards (just as no actress has breasts the size of their comic book counterpart) but I'd hardly call him a shrimp.

Hi, are you Satan? Anyway, I posted on the Bio forums a few times, back when I was having trouble when NWN first came out. Ha!

Sigh... The original Tombraider on a new engine wouldn't really be that bad a thing. It su**s having to run it on glide emulators. Curse 3Dfx for that awful proprietary interface thingy... However, odds for Tombraider being developed by Obsidian are probably bad. Doesn't Core exist still ? Crystal Dynamics aredoing the next Tomb Raider game. I was a Tomb Raider fan back in the day, but I've long since lost interest. Hopefully CD can do it some justice.

Wasn't is big bad Lucasarts who said no to modding because of some garbage about tainting the Star Wars universe or some such? I don't see us getting mod tools for this any more than the original, though it would be nice. Not that moding is totally out of the question. I managed to give Canderous some Boba Fett armour. *giggles like a school girl*

That's what I was thinking, though I don't mind if the Revan in KOTOR 2 isn't my Revan from KOTOR 1. Can't be everyone's Revan, afterall. As I understand the article you will be able to tell the game how you played Revan in Kotor. I hope that is correct because for me it would be a big continuity issue if Revan appears and is nothing like I played her in nr 1. If they cant in any way factor in the way different people have played Revan in the original, then they should have him/her not appear at all IMO. Oo-er, I like the sound of that. Bloody marvelous.

The screenshots show that the graphics are just the same as the original (which I thought were rather nice). The scans really don't do it any justice.

I wanna be the meat in a Jaesun and taks sandwich.
