New rulesets are what Josh does best.

Let's create the worst fantasy setting ever.
Oerwinde replied to Monte Carlo's topic in Way Off-Topic
Peasantrise was once ruled by an evil warlock king who demanded unrealistic taxes from his subjects and just treated everyone terribly. For some reason he managed to keep tight control over his huge army despite being hated by pretty much everyone in the kingdom. One day a prophecised young man from a humble farming family came back from fetching water to find his family killed by the king for not paying his taxes. He then gathered a ragtag group of freedom fighters including a sexy female rogue, gruff dwarf fighter, mysterious wizard, snooty elf, and charismatic best friend who eventually betrayed him. He then managed to storm the castle of Eavylkeep and defeat the king in single combat, becoming king himself. He immediately enacted tax reforms and farming subsidies and everyone was happy forever. -
I wonder how difficult it would be to adapt it to an original IP

Isn't forcing a carnivore to be vegan animal cruelty?

Avoid if you've read the books though. It will just make you angry. They mostly base the first season on the first book, cherry picking a couple moments from book 6 and such though. And they completely change huge plot points, major characters who appear throughout the book series are relegated to cameos in single episodes, dead characters are alive, live characters are dead, that sort of thing. Terry Goodkind was supposed to be heavily involved in the show but he wasn't.

What car would you like to have if you could pick anyone
Oerwinde replied to Nihilus5078's topic in Way Off-Topic
After driving next to one of those... they should be called the Rollerskate. Seriously, I would need two, one for each foot. I don't see how anyone taller than 5' could fit in that. And I drive a Yaris. -

Volvo S60 modified with a diesel engine, and super expensive stereo. -
I like a little bit of everything, but my favorite genres are Metal, Hard Rock, and Classical.

How strange, then, that there were so many good ST games to come out of Interplay in the 1990s/early 2000s, and indeed generally - The 25th Anniversary, Elite Force/2, The Fallen, the Starfleet Command series, Armada/2, etc. Can anyone tell me how to actually win a space combat in 25th anniversary? It dropped me into the game and I had no idea what to do then I died.

http://fo3settler.webs.com/ The beta for the settler mod was posted recently. Haven't played it yet, but based on the alpha it should be pretty damn good.
-
but that's the thing, every impression I've gotten of latinum is that it's like gold (which doesn't make sense to lug around a heavy valuable material when you're in the future) Its apparently a liquid that can't be replicated, hence its value. Gold pressed latinum is latinum contained in gold strips for use as currency.

Screw Star Trek, give me a Green Lantern Corps RPG.
-
Or it was just a weak film, which it was I agree. I just wonder why everyone else I know loved it. I thought PE was terribly overrated. One of those movies where the trailer has most of the funny parts in it. I thought James Franco was pretty entertaining trying to channel Spicoli. The best part of the movie was in the diner at the end.

I liked how the moral of the story of Zack and Miri was that women shouldn't play mind games, because they just end up hurting themselves.

I haven't been up to day, but I could see this happening... what with them enacting a kill order on the Sinestro Corps during the Corps war. And with ganthet being tossed out for having emotion (yay blue lanterns!) They also enacted a kill order for all enemies of the green lanterns, they outlawed love and relationships between green lanterns, which resulted in mass resignations, and they created the alpha lanterns. A half lantern/half manhunter group that polices the green lanterns.
-
I like that the Guardian's reactions to all the other lanterns is basically turning them into the villains.

Ok, so I just caught myself up on the goings on in the Green Lantern universe. Screw Batman, GL is the best DC property. Looking forward to Blackest Night. Green Lantern Corps should be made into an animated series. On a not so enthusiastic note, read Ultimatum #4. Loeb is still raping the Ultimate universe. Dr Strange gets killed after getting a costume "update" (if by changing it from his ultimate costume to his 616 costume is an update) and they change his personality. How he gets killed? Dormamu strangles him with his own cape with telekenesis then drops him on his head. Fight seriously takes like 3 panels. Oh, and then Angel gets his neck broken by Sabretooth, who is then shot in the eye by Hawkeye. Fight again takes about 3 panels. Then Valkyrie fights Magneto, who wields Mjolnir, Valkyrie cuts his arm off then dies. Reminder, Thor sacrificed his life to ressurrect her in the previous issue. Oh, and the whole Ultimatum thing? Caused by Dr Doom. The same Dr Doom who is trapped in the Zombie dimension but is somehow back and no one questions how or why. I hope Jeph Loeb gets cancer.

You must not be a comic fan. Lucky you. I mean that. Reading the source material of adaptions before seeing the movie always ruins the movie. The first two Harry Potter movies I consider the best ones because I hadn't read the books, after that I read all the books, and not a single movie after has lived up to them. (Chamber of Secrets and Philosophers Stone were actually very faithful though.)

I'm using the Better Companions mod, Better Caravans mod, the one that makes the sky blue, and the pre-beta of The Settler(not available, but will be a must have when its released). I had the Foundation mod until the newer patch made mods not work. Hadn't played it before patching but heard its really good.

Its a shame that we can't do horrible psychological experiments anymore, then we could settle this for good. Have a kid kill a bunch of people in game, then have him witness a gruesome murder and see what the reactions are to both.

I think it combines achievements and gamerscore with XBL as well.

I can on some level accept that they're going with Jason X as the design for Cobra Commander, as there have been several Cobra Commander designs, but Baroness has always been eastern european noblety. Making her an American and the sister of Cobra Commander is just dumb. And making Destro the leader of Cobra and CC wrests control from him is dumb as well. Destro has always been the head of MARS and was a weapons dealer and supporter of Cobra, he was never its leader, even though a lot of people wished he was.

Sorry, just been on a few boards the last few days and with various clips and stuff coming out there was just so many people who rip into these brands like they are **** because they started with a toy. Yes it started with the toy, but without the comics and cartoons there wouldn't be any interest in adapting them into movies in the first place.

New Monkey Island series announced
Oerwinde replied to SteveThaiBinh's topic in Computer and Console
its not exactly a port. The graphics have been updated, new backgrounds and character models, but built on the old engine so other than graphics and updated sound and voice acting is the same game -
I really hate it when uninformed people talk like they know things. GI Joe had a comic line under Marvel that ran 155 issues. It had a Devil's Due run that ran 80 issues. It had numerous limited series and one shots. The average comic storyline runs 6 issues, averaging to over 40 storylines. Plus 3 cartoon series and a TV movie. There is a plethora of source material that isn't just the packaging for the toys. The situation is similar for Transformers. The toys were actually the worst part of the brand.
