Tale

baw baw, it's a tunnel shooter Lest we forget that the best Star Wars game of all time was a rail shooter.

It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from here. I'm a big proponent of heavy thematics and imagery and they love pushing it in their trailers. I can't help but be excited for it.

Telltale's best series to date.

Dude, it was Conan in space.

Alien is the best series of all time. OF ALL TIME

I want them to roll back to what they were before they started making BG, and then I want them to rethink their steps. And I'd like Obsidian to make Gamma World: Torment. What's the problem? I permanently shelved DA:O because after reinstalling the game after a HDD wipe I cannot get Shale anymore (nor any other free DLC, unlike with ME). It should be tied to the same account you have setup as your bioware social login. It just downloads with the in-game downloader.

Thousands of hours of endless grind. The more populous group is in WoW specifically to avoid that.

That sounds more reasonable if true. Need to see if the Signature Edition still exists after January 11.

Is there any precedent for pre-order bonuses that are only for pre-orders over 2 months before release?

PC = can't even get all the files to make it work yet Xbox = Guy at Gamestop lifts a fully working copy from the back room when his boss isn't looking.

Actually it's in closed beta now. http://swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=109426 It's in closed testing. The TOR team is pretty insistent that it's not in beta yet.

WoW has sold better than Mass Effect. Which sold better than Baldur's Gate. So it must be great.

That perk list is making me rethink my Guns, Science, Survival character. Science and Guns aren't given any synergy. At all. So many Repair instead of Science, since I don't want to do Energy Weapons this time. Or maybe I'll go with my Science, Speech, Repair character. Repair is for after he gets tired of running away from everything and finally picks up a gun.

My precious Corruptors! NOOOOO

How the heck did I miss that? I was thinking "so what, that's how they did it with Shale and Zaeed." But it's not, those were for new copies, not pre-orders. That is kind of scary.

Right, but that doesn't exactly contest my point at all. Indiana Jones was also not a particularly strong story. It's simply fun. There's an almost compulsive need among nerds to overjustify their enjoyment. To the point that they habitually make stuff up about it to make it seem more intellectual than it is. As art critics to art shows thus nerds to space opera and sci-fi.

Did you watch the same movies I did? The strength was in lasers. Eh, depends on the movies, on the original trilogy, story and characterization was awesome, on the new trilogy, it's all about the graphics ejaculating into your eyballs. What exactly was good about the story? It was your average evil empire one. It was well paced, well acted, and the characters were likeable, but none of that is "story." If it had been filmed today, people would have torn the plotholes a new one. "Wait, so they just let the strongest member of the Rebellion into the Emperor's chamber with the only bodyguard for the guy being that rebel's father? With both Vader and the Emperor making no secret of their intention to betray the other. Too dumb to live!"

I found it very insightful. I'm nominating it for an award in independent literature.

So does anyone know if the game includes a blind old woman? How is the eyesight of Nightkins?

Yes, but if it's a blimp showing up, you're going to presume that it's World War 2 Germany attacking. As opposed to any more modern threats.

Be careful of the spokes. Anything in particular you're on the fence about?

So, is Lily confirmed as a romance option? Maybe ED-E for girls.

I liked Orc. That's the one of the last four that is excepted from three of the last four. I thought Ghost was less than stellar. Part of it might be that

[boo] Haw haw! [/boo] Seriously though, if the squad members from ME2 are more than short conversations and emails in ME3 I will be so (positively) surprised that I'll need years of therapy to recover. They'd never relegate them to e-mails. E-mail doesn't convey the family drama the series revolves around.
