From what I have seen and read of ME, ME is as much as a shooter as Bloodlines is. Volourn is correct that it is smack dab in the middle for action RPGs. The same catagory of CRPGs as Jade Empire, Oblivion, and Bloodlines.

Um... Crysis.
Well, my lowest score on the whole Windows Index is my CPU at 4.2, however my Grahpic Hardware registers at a 5.9. Hmmm...

Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition is on the way...
Nah. That would be too rational.

Sure if you only click, but I often find my self playing the "The Most Harmonic Combos" game littering the battlefield with multicolored orbs, trying to kill the enemy without touching a single orb. It makes the combat a lot more fun... Well, maybe not but far more difficult... Okay, its not but its something to do at least.

What you did today, part gazillion
Did Angel have a naked woman in its pilot? No? SG-1 is better than Angel.

Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition is on the way...
Which is nothing more than a load of crap. I say retire the setting and start anew, like they did with Eberron. A brand new campaign setting for a brand new version of DnD.
-
Um... Crysis.
I just been afraid to move it up past Low to be honest. It might blow up my PC.

Um... Crysis.
1440 x 900. No AA or AF. I always use max native with LCD screens. And even on low the game looks better than Oblivion and NWN2 on high.

Um... Crysis.
My hardware/OS is... CPU: Intel Cedar Mill Pentium 4 3.0 ghz Graphic Card: Radeon X1900 GT Motherboard: EVGA 122-CK-NF68 (680i Northbridge) RAM: 2 Gigs of SUPERTALENT Hard Drives: 2x 250 gig Monitor: LG Electronics 19 inch Widescreen OS: Windows Vista Home Premium I am getting about 30 frames per second on low settings. Future upgrades is going to be the Intel 6850 Core 2 Duo at 3 ghz, and either 2 8800 GTs in SLI or a single Radeon 3870. I am thinking that I should have played more on Stalker before tackling this game.

If she stays dead. Also AO would only make a new goddess of magic anyway, if he bothers at all. Also this whole kill her then make a new goddess of magic is old. Either keep the Goddess or ditch magic. Killing her, bring her back, kill her again, bring her back, kill her again, blah blah blah. If you are going to bother to kill a major aspect of a campaign setting... KEEP IT DEAD or don't bother.

Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition is on the way...
Yes, but if she stays dead this time then there is no magic. Period.

Um... Crysis.
Hearing the Koreans talk is somewhat hilarious. I had one which I could grab right in front of me hile cloaked. "I CAN'T SEE HIM!" He screams then I put a bullet in his eye. HA! Another was screaming for his people to cover him while he reloaded. Unfortunately, they were all dead and I simply pummeled him to death. I am also gaining an appreciation for running over people.

I took Jade Empire as Bioware's attempt in making an interactive Kung Fu movie. A cheesy over the top Kung Fu movie at that.

Something like you computer does a complete and total meltdown destroying the CPU, Motherboard, hard drives, and any cards you have plugged in, not alone the memory, and your significant other accidently snaps your XP install disc in half?

Um... Crysis.
Okay, I have been playing Crysis for a bit now and all I can say is holy freaking crappity screw! I am playing it on easy and it is the first FPS that I have played that I am actually having fun with. I like how when you hit a guy in the head with a round while cloaked he actually reacts getting shot in the head, with or without helmet. Hell, the helmet flying off is a cool touch. Also the destructable terrain is awesome. Such as I grabbed one guy, did the whole strength power up, threw him against a tree and while he flew I begin shooting him. He lands crumpled and the tree lands right on top. Insult to injury! HA! There are a few things I wish I could do in the game, but then again this is a FPS and not a CRPG.

Yeah, the plot "twist" was as transparent as air but it was meant to be. Ever watch those old style kung fu movies? The plot was very easy to figure out but you aren't watching them for the plot.

PC or Console?
Been on a salad kick and kicking salads is fun.

Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition is on the way...
So no magic whatsoever? Sounds like a wonderful idea. Might as well rename the campaign setting to d20 Past.

Mass Effect Is Extreme
Side quests are optional thingies. Normal I only really do side quests if it makes sense for my character to actually do them. I am playing in character after all. Just doing a side quest because its there but goes against how my character's personality and desires is silly. If time is portrayed to be of the essence I am not going to waste time do a bunch of side stuff just because. I take the most expediant route. One of the reasons why I finished BG2 fairly quickly. It was always hurry hurry hurry after Irenicus, so I hurried.

Well, I am not going to spend $50 to $60 on a CRPG that I can beat in 10 to 11 hours.

Angel? Stargate SG-1 was better, though I did prefer Angel over Buffy. You should have joined the Air Force or Navy. Then you could have gotten the Enterpirse series or Legends of the Overfiend.

Depends on where you place worth. Some people say life is precious thing, but how precious something is determined by its rarity and with 6 billion people and more joining each and every day that rarity is not readily seen so human life is loses its glitter, but if you take the scope of the universe we may be just one tiny spec of a world in an otherwise dead reality thusly in truth life is really rare. Okay, I am rambling nonsense. BLAH!
