KotOR 1 ran fine for me, except for some slow-down issues which were totally fixed by the first patch. KotOR 2 runs perfectly too, so far.
Moral Lesson: NVIDIA GeForce cards are your friends

And I thought I played too much DnD when I rolled d6 luck checks in my mind to see if I would catch the bus to school...There's always worse I guess

Warcraft 3 SHOULD HAVE been StarCraft 2, but that's a completely different point for a debate.
It will come out sooner or later. The rule of successful games getting sequels will be proven right once more

He's good as a first companion, but you should ditch him when you get tired of him shooting you in the back with burst fire
In the manual of Fallout 2, where the memoirs of the Vault Dweller are presented as an "intro", the vault dweller says that Ian fell in Necropolis, burned by the flamethrower of a mutant. What's funny is that this is EXACTLY how I first lost Ian the first time I played Fallout :ph34r:
-
That was totally funny
...and true, I might add.

Rome: Total War,
Far-Cry,
Knights of the Old Republic (finishing the game with as darkside character as possible just to set myself for TSL
),Fallout 1+2 (never really unistalled them since getting them...),
Civilization 2,
Colonization,
Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon+The Pandora Directive+Overseer (truly some of the greatest adventure games ever!),
Wing Commander 3: Heart of the Tiger (all-time classic...),
TIE Fighter (another all-time classic),
X-Wing Alliance,
and about a million more abandonware adventures/rpgs...

Read a walkthrough at NMA, everything's there.
I'm not sure but I think the Raider's leader passes you for his father if you have high luck and/or you're wearing Leather Armor...
Try wearing different armor or just begin attacking all raiders in sight as you enter the camp, that should change things (especially the second one
) -
Swastika symbols have been around since...ever, actually. I even saw Minoan urns in the archeological museum of Heraklion in Crete which dated back to 2000 BC and had "swastikas" on them. They represented stars, I think.
And, Hitler munching on a melon is quite amusing :D

Iron Maiden - Aces High,
KISS - Detroit Rock City,
Motorhead - Mean Machine,
Slayer - The Anti-Christ,
WASP - Hellion,
and several others.

Pool of Radiance 2, Thief 3 and, on a lighter note, FIFA 2004.

It's a quite fun Diablo clone developed in Korea. Its only con is that it has still not reached v1.0 so there are no quests whatsoever, just non-stop hackslash and level-ups...
And it gets quite annoying to see random lvl 7 noobs from Brazil following you around and asking you "plz giv me teh leathar glovz, cant speek eglish"...

That article is both over-over-over exagerating ("use gameboy, go to jail"? OMFG!!!!) and ancient history BTW. That law was indeed brought into the parliament 2-3 years ago, but fortunately most people realised how gay and anti-democratic it was so it was banished down to the fiery pits of Hell.
As for Troy...It looks more like the Barbarian invasion than Greeks going to battle. You certainly wouldn't find gigantic skinheads dressed in crudely-sawn leather armor among the Greek ranks, that's for certain. Not to mention the chaos that is historically correct weapons and armor. Christ, Trojans were wearing PERSIAN helmets and armor in most of the battle scenes.
Alexander could have been quite good if not for some minor details (Hefaistion wearing eye-shadow??? WHY OH GOD WHY??!!!), but generally it is a hymn to Greece so I guess I shouldn't complain
-
If there was any extra material it would probably just be something like that Yavin station in KotOR anyway, where you buy weapons and play cards, or something else useless like that.
-
Explain what you actually mean by the "Greek side", and I will consider it (in a PMSG preferably, no need to spam
) -
Because the Pope will smite the infidels! If he can manage to get up from his throne-chair, that is...

"All the way to the summer" IS pretty harsh. I'm ok with a 1 or 2 weeks delay but 3 more months?!
Just releasing the damn game on schedule, and making sure to release patches that fix any bugs relatively soon is perfectly fine with me.
-
Well, these 2 months left could be just the thing for thoroughly playing "Pirates!" and "VtM: Bloodlines", so that we can be thrown into TSL undistracted, mwahaha...
-
Heheh. Imagine killing some hooded idiot that keeps bugging you, and just after you deal the final thrust you hear him whisper "I'm...Revan...you moron..." and then he dies. Truly an epic scene.
-
There was a certain "scene" in one of the "Jedi Academy" trilogy books where an apprentice was able to extend the blade of his lightsaber by flipping a switch or sth, if I am not mistaken. <_<
BTW the latest NJO books were also good and sorry for not adding them to my exclusions.
-
EU can go kill itself in the face anyway. Personally I wouldn't touch most of the stuff in the SW Books (Thrawn trilogy excluded) even with a 10-feet lightsaber
-
Ah well. We PC users can still play VTM: Bloodlines until TSL arrives!
*awaits the Attack of The Trolls*

The top 33 sexually suggestive lines from the original Star Wars Trilogy:
A New Hope
10. "Get in there you big furry oaf, I don't care what you smell!"
9. "Luke, at that speed do you think you'll be able to pull out in time?"
8. "Put that thing away before you get us all killed."
7. "You've got something jammed in here real good."
6. "Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?"
5. "You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought."
4. "Sorry about the mess..."
3. "Look at the size of that thing!"
2. "Curse my metal body, I wasn't fast enough!"
1. "She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid."
The Empire Strikes Back
10. "I thought that hairy beast would be the end of me."
9. "Size matters not. Judge me by my size, do you?"
8. "There's an awful lot of moisture in here."
7. "But now we must eat. Come, good food, come..."
6. "That's okay, I'd like to keep it on manual control for a while."
5. "Hurry up, golden-rod..."
4. "I must've hit it pretty close to the mark to get her all riled up like that, huh kid?"
3. "Possible he came in through the south entrance."
2. "And I thought they smelled bad on the outside!"
1. "Control, control! You must learn control!"
Return of the Jedi:
13. "What could possibly have come over Master Luke? Is it something I did? He never expressed any unhappiness with my work." (C3PO)
12. "Hey, point that thing someplace else." (Han)
11. "I look forward to completing your training. In time you will call me master." (Emperor)
10. "You're a jittery little thing, aren't you?" (Leia)
9. "I never knew I had it in me." (C3PO)
8. "Someone must've told them about my little maneuver at the battle of Taanab." (Lando)
7. "There is good in him, I've felt it." (Luke)
6. "If I told you half the things I've heard about this Jabba the Hutt, you'd probably short circuit." (C3PO)
5. "I assure you, Lord Vader, my men are working as fast as they can." (Jerjerrod) with reply "Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them." (Darth)
4. "Grab me, Chewie. I'm slipping -- hold on. Grab it, almost...you almost got it. Gently now, all right, easy, easy, hold me, Chewie. Chewie!" (Han) with "A little higher, just a little higher." (Lando)
3. "Short help's better than no help at all." (Han)
2. "Hey, Luke, thanks for coming after me -- now I owe you one." (Han)
1. "Back door, huh? Good idea!" (Han)

Several expeditions have been made to search as deep as possible within the Santorini caldera for ANY signs of ruins or other things of archeological interest (even Jacques-Ives Cousteau went there to search) and they have shown that there are absolutely no ruins whatsoever on the bottom of the caldera.
The only ruins we've discovered in the immediate vicinity are the afore-mentioned groups of Minoan houses and storage rooms found by Greek archeologist Marinatos some years ago. Of course, there is still much to excavate.
I'm studying archeology, already have 3 stars in my diving diploma and live in Greece, perhaps I shall organise a diving expedition there myself someday
(plus: Fate of Atlantis is indeed the greatest adventure game ever
) -
Plato did describe in his dialogues what, in his opinion, would be the Ideal City, so just adding the description of Atlantis in his dialogues as an "example" of this City is quite a possibility.
It is estimated that there are at least 10.000 unexplored underwater archeological sites (from shipwrecks to cities) withing the sea borders of ancient Greece (so Cyprus is included), thus the probability of this being a different site other than Atlantis is quite high...
