EA won't be getting Neverwinter Nights, will they? I thought that was a license granted to Atari.

I think Draikin makes one good point. I think people would have a hard time naming concrete benefits to a succesful company like Bioware from this. Well, aside from it giving Dragon Age a publisher.

Press release or no press release, that kind of behavior in public is indecent. Keep your hands where I can see them.

Why do so many publicized partnerships/acquisitions/deals in general have to be accompanied by such rigorous ****sucking? Just once I want to read an involved party talk like an actual person.

c) They have a flavor of the month/week god, switching around as they see fit. d) The general is any of the above and organizes his army from followers of different gods. It's quite open. The wiki makes it sound like undivided is basically just an excuse to mix and match however you feel like.

Wouldn't you have to buy that gold in Cuba? Meaning whoever you give the Cuban currency to would have to deal with that?

Okay, I'll look into doing it when I get home tonight. Consider yourselves warned.

I just hope we get to learn about the origin of the Blood Ravens SOON. It is suspected that they're a split from a traitor legion. Can't the Undivided do this?

Yeah, looking at wiki it seems Lost and Damned and the With Hunters are the most likely candidates. However, this is assuming there's not a lot of Lost and Damned included in the existing Chaos Marines (I don't know).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adeptus_Custodes I would doubt Mechanicus too. It doesn't fit in with "Soulstorm" and reading the wiki, it seems difficult to justify in general. Would seem better as something to use as units for IG and SM (IG already has tech priests, anyway). Though it would be interesting!

I doubt it'll be Inquisition. There are Inquisition units with the Space Marines already, would seem redundant. The wiki entry claims that some fans think it could be the Emperor's personal bodyguards.

Still Alive - Jonathon Coulton Warning: Contains spoilers for VALVe's Portal. Indeed, it's the end song during the credits.

I would have this game already but I'm waiting on my Circuit City gamer's discount card to arrive. I'm planning on making ~$300 in purchases this week. Maybe I should just buck it up and not save the 10% on this expansion.

I just beat Portal twice. Once regular then once with commentary. > Shodan

I want to see it, but by the time I found out it was showing there were only two showings left at the theatre.

Lots of fun. Much better than the stupid car garage in Episode 1. There were two different trips in nests. And both played quite wonderfully, in my opinion. Much better than anything else involving fighting against antlions so far. It was harder in some ways, but less about being swarmed by enemies (save for one portion).

Stayed up all night played Half Life 2: Episode 2. Also got in about 30 minutes of Portal before I realized the dialogue didn't decrypt properly. I have both good and bad things to say about Episode 2, I'm nearly done, so I feel mostly confident in my stance. There are aspects of Valve's episodic approach that, even only after two episodes, feels a little formulaic. There are several things they introduce in Episode 1, slightly elaborate on in Episode 2, and then are leaving us to explore in Episode 3. It seems as if they're either: a) trying desperately to make sure we don't think they throw them in at the last minute or b) keep them fresh in our minds each episode with incremental teasers to try to tie everything together. As episodes, they don't stand on their own feet very well, if at all, is the basis of what I'm saying. And as a single creation cut into pieces, it's just too damned busy. I also feel it lacks the attention to detail Half-Life 2 had. The G-man appearances, Kleiner's lab (mini-teleport, Kleiner's miscellaneous commentary on multiple things). Though the recurring "couple on the couch" gag is a detail I'm glad they're still keeping. On the upside, gameplay is still top notch and pacing is among the best. I love the new creatures, scenes, encounters. There's a nice little ambush which is probably one of my favorite fights in shootan. The Hunters are incredibly epic for relatively common enemies and, trust me, the gameplay vids do them no justice, they've changed since then. They're not mini-striders or running turrets.

Shipping on the 9th seems to be the case in this instance. Which would explain why it didn't get released early like Europe.

CS: Source is not included.

I can help you, but we might have to metaphorically make a deal with the devil, and by "devil", I mean Robot Devil, and by "metaphorically", I mean get your coat.

No. Not at all. They have a license agreement through 2013.

Or Hotel Dusk. Did Resident Evil 1, 2 or Silent Hill 1 come out for PCs? OOH, OOH! Fatal Frame.
