  1. It sounds like it'll be an Atari developed system. So definitely not Securom or Starforce.
  2. They got better as they released more. There's a particular sorcerer/wizard one I really liked, and their class portraits (the ones that were just a symbol associated with a class instead of a character) were particularly nice. The generic human thief was also well done.
  3. It's not only an MMO, but now there's no 360 version.
  4. I carry cash only because people give it to me for birthdays and holidays. The 5 sitting in my wallet has been there since the middle of March.
  5. I can tell you what went wrong, he never had one. It's a glandular thing.

  6. I actually like NWN portraits. But I can't find them for use in BG2.
  7. Also, "Cracker Barrel." Just think about it.

  8. Fuddruckers... fuddruckers. Something about the name makes me think it'd be like Joe's Crab Shack.

    God, how I hate Joe's Crab Shack. Quite possibly the worst restaurant in existence. Like eating at a daycare, where the children are your servers.

  9. Reading The Spine of the World most of the day after work. Doing that more than my DBZ marathoning. Been on a reading kick ever since I decided to finally finish The Dark Tower. Went through The Dark Elf Trilogy, which I found to be terribly exciting after The Dark Tower's plodding pace. And I've also purchased 5 books in the past month so I really need to kick myself to read more. I got The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Metal Gear Solid novel, and The Last Wish, the book introducing The Witcher. Not all of that is particularly relevant to today, but I know you care.
  10. Fudge yeah.
  11. Oh... chicken pot pies. I've had those. However, I refuse to go to Cracker Barrel. I have no idea what they were thinking of when they named that place.

  12. I've never had a meat pie. And something about the concept frightens me.

  13. You talk about it like that's a bad thing!

  14. I came into this profile to be my usual charming and debonair self. Then I saw that screenshot. I go now.

  15. Awesome. It seems there are workarounds for the problem. But that's not the awesome part. The awesome part is it seems limited to nvidia cards. Which I'm only using temporarily. For future reference: http://www.shsforums.net/index.php?showtopic=30840 That's probably the link with clearest information.
  16. Anyone else experience slight graphical oddities? See how the inventory items have a darker background and the inventory bag has that black box around it? Well, floating text also has that black backing to it, such as Irenicus' words in the beginning of BGII. It seems that some form of transparency is gone. I'd wager it's most likely simply a consequence of newer hardware (and drivers) than anything the game was intended for, but I figure I'll ask anyway.
  17. Charisma and Wisdom are the dump stats for my Wild Mage. He's a Wild Mage! If he was wise, he wouldn't have picked the class in the first place. And tossing about spells randomly is likely to make people not like him as much. I like to think of him as a cross between a mad wizard and the guy who juggles chainsaws.
  18. I believe in you, buddy! It's okay if I call you buddy, right?
  19. Isn't that why there is a bunch of belts/gauntlets of XYZ Giant Strength in the game? It just catches me by surprise. I'll always get a weapon or armor that she simply can't equip without the belt. I'll think "WTF, WHY CAN'T SHe... oh... yeah. d'oh" To be so repeatedly fooled is frustrating.
  20. Or simple and quite horrible recouloring of the original portraits. Imoen with horribly yellow hair? http://www.gibberlings3.net/portraits/thumbnails.php?album=4
  21. I really try to.
  22. One thing that is currently bugging the crap out of me with regards to Baldur's Gate I and II is the abysmal selection of portraits. And the even worse ones people have on various sites around the internet. The male human mages that ship are either fruity (I'm looking at you, guy with purple outfit and his hands in the air) or Edwin. The ones online are cropped fantasy art or celebrity faces shopped onto the included portraits.
