I will be very happy if they include this guy. If only Mr. Takiyama hadn't committed suicide, the feud between him and Lu Kim could have been an epic questline.

Still have an hour to go before the new year. Went to a neighbor's party and had a few drinks, heh. Anyway, happy New Year everyone!

Just got back from Mass. Not as many people this year, unfortunately. Merry Christmas, everyone. Hope you all have a fun and safe holiday.

The Hobbit trailer Got chills when the dwarves started singing. So good.

Finished Season 1 & 2 of Carnivale. One of the most unique and in-depth shows I've ever seen. Such a shame that it was cancelled.

So...much...testosterone. I'm feeling the same. I love Steve Buscemi, but Nucky is kind of...despicable. I really don't like Margaret either, heh.

How many quests did you complete? I'm playing FFTA2 right now. Played for 31 hours and have only done about 20% of the missions. I completed 187 quests. I would have done a lot more but I started getting bored/tired towards the end. Decided to just finish the game instead.

Finished Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift in ~38 hours, although I could see myself spending a lot more time on it. Overall, a much more satisfying game than its predecessor. Going through the old Fallout games now to prep me for the FO:NV Ultimate Edition.

I visited Walden a few years back. Very beautiful place. I'm reading through Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers. So far, it's exactly the same as the show.

That ending, although expected still made my skin crawl. Shame though I really liked that character. He was one of my favorite characters in Season 1, although less so in Season 2. He really won me over in the last few episodes though, especially with those flashbacks. I'm interested in seeing how Richard will react. Oh man. Makes me want to watch the first two again.

Two things. 1. So the fifth class is Jew after all. 2. Epic beard. Great stuff so far!

Just saw the finale for Boardwalk Empire. Wow. Can't wait to see what they have in store for Season 3.

I followed the GAF thread and from what I read, that was bad enough. I can't imagine actually watching it. Never played any of the C&C games, so meh. Sounds like they're really just slapping the Bioware label on the game.

Sounds great so far. Interesting that there's even a faction system in place.

Why wait for January? If I understood the initial announcement, the issue is out next week. Uh..yep. You're right. Was thinking that the issue wouldn't be out until January.

Finally got a chance to watch Band of Brothers. Awesome, awesome series. I'm going to check out HBO's Carnivale next. The premise sounds interesting and I've heard a lot of great things about it.

On Twitter? Do you have a link? I do indeed. The entire conversation is here. Andrew Reiner is an editor for GameInformer.

Yep, it's a pity about the story. I wish they would return to the darker feel of the first Tactics game. I'm playing Fallout Tactics although I wish the game had deeper combat mechanics like Jagged Alliance. Fallout game with JA combat...if only.

Wow. A South Park RPG isn't really what I expected. I guess all we can do is wait and see until January rolls around. The GameInformer journalists that previewed it have said that they love it and can't wait to see how everyone else will react once the game is seen in action. So...fingers crossed.

Was this picture taken at Obsidian?

Video teaser for new Bioware game. And by teaser, I mean a couple seconds of footage. I see tanks.

How's the main quest line? I've heard that it's Bethesda's best story so far. Also, how much of it is devoted to the civil war? Honestly, I find that plot to be far more interesting than dragons.

Was 8 (or VIII or whatever) the one that had a demo PC version? I remember trying one of them and besides the instant turnoff that was the horrible control scheme, it had this emo kid with all attitude and no redeeming qualities that you wanted to put over your knee? Aren't most FF protagonists like that? I've only played 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, and all the Tactics games. 6 was great as well. The first time I played through it, I left Shadow on the Floating continent to die. I didn't know you could sit there and wait for him.

Vote where? Here. I've done my part.
