Avellone and Mitsoda on the same project? Wow, this should be amazingly well-written. Which is btw, not to imply that the other designers aren't good writers too, but it's just that their writing is well documented in these circles.

http://www.star-telegram.com/sports/column...ory/512051.html This is a cool story. And I don't think Texas will have that many cool stories this year. They continually refer to him as a "kid". The guy is turning 27 in a few weeks. He's supposed to be in the prime of his career. They're comparing him to 19 year old versions of Juan Gonzalez, Ivan Rodriguez, and even Ruben Sierra. You can't! Of course you can't compare him (in his current form) to those guys at 19! He's not some raw kid who hasn't fully grown into his body yet. He's a polished baseball player who's benefited from several years of top level instruction, weight lifting, with some substance abuse here and there. It's great that Josh Hamilton is finally becoming the baseball player that he was supposed to be when he was first drafted 8 or 9 years ago. But jeeze, the guy can't be called a prospect. Call him a long time minor leaguer/high pick bust, who cleaned up his life and is supposed to play at the proper level he was originally envisioned to play. Randy Galloway? I'll add him to my list of douchebag baseball writers/commentators. Joining the likes of Richard Griffin, Bruce Jenkins, Joe Morgan, and Tim McCarver.

Barry Bonds pre-2000 was the most talented baseball player since Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle. Barry Bonds post 2000 is the single most devastating hitter in the history of the game. This iteration of Bonds is my favorite.

Classic.

Lucasarts began in-house preproduction work for K3 but scrapped it soon after K2 was released. This was probably part of that.

The Giants are in pretty crappy state. Without Bonds, their hitting could quite possibly be the worst offense since...well, ever. 1) Roberts 2) Visquel 3) Winn 4) Molina 5) Rowand 6) Durham 7) Aurilia Frandsen Things don't look too good on the other side of the bay in Oakland. But atleast the A's have a legitimate framework for rebuilding.

Maybe this will help? http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=48748 Seems to be Vista specific.

Das Keyboard. Personally, I prefer to mate my 45 wpm to the IBM Model M.

Non Spoiler mini review. Time of Final Save: 46hrs 26 min. Good: Fun, involving story. A few mutually exclusive big game choices to make. Some of the

Mass Effect sells 1 million units in three weeks. Great for Bioware. Good news for EA and Microsoft.

NHLPA Hockey 93 for the Sega Genesis was the first video game I was ever obsessed with, though it is far from perfect. If EA somehow was able to combine the action, speed, and SFX from 93, with the gameplay refinements of NHL 94, with the feature set of NHL 95...then you'd have the most perfect video game EVAR.

The 360 controller is really well designed. Very ergonomic and intuitive.

Mechwarrior 5 would be neat!

Go go Electronic Arts! It's always cool to root for the second place underdogs.

Alien sex, naughty language, debate over atheism/religion, murder-death-kill, executions, rrrracism!, choices with consequences, and tentacle rape. I'm only about a third of the way in.

Have you played KotOR? Long story short: The voice of Kaiden Alenko is the same as one the party NPC's from Kotor, Carth Onassi. He was the romanceable character for female player characters. However, to many male player characters, he came across as, "whiny". This was talked over constantly in the Bio boards. Dave Gaider was Carth's writer. He's also a very active forum poster.

So I was chatting up with my good buddy Alenko when he ends the conversation with this: "...besides, I wouldn't want you to think that I'm a whiner..." HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Very nice easter egg. Didn't notice Gaider's name anywhere in the credits.

I've got expensive tastes. and...a 200 credit investment can go a long way.

What are your views on the combat Josh?

An hour of Quasar yielded me 13550 in credits! Just enough to purchase the Onyx IV Heavy Armor (complete with the N7 seal of approval!)

Thanks for the link! I shall begin to play Quasar in the most optimal manner.

I've had pretty high expectations for this game and I'm pretty satisfied with my experience so far. It's a fun game. Even the mini-games are cool.

Mini games are fun! More gaming fun for the dollar! (US)
