Hmm... The Witcher Dragon Age Mass Effect (PC port... ) Metal Gear Solid 4 (PC Port... ) Force Unleashed. Ninja Gaiden 2 If Sony loses MGS4 exclusiveness I'll probably get a 360. Mass Effect, MGS4, NG2 will be worth it.

Can I have your life? Just another tedious day at work for me. I'll get off in a few hours get some exercise and try to finish GoW2.

I agree with Sand. Whats wrong with people just having some fun? I mean I would like the chance to bonk people with rubber/foam swords too.

I got this game yesterday, and I must say it is pretty awesome. I'm pretty sure I know which God will bite the bullet in this one.

I had to share a bus with a boatload of 3rd graders this morning. They little rascals had gotten on ahead of me and had taken all the seats so I had to stand all the way to Downtown SF. It wasn't that bad actually. There were three kids sitting in front of me enthusiastically discussing the 'awesomeness' of the PSP, saying, "DUDE! THE PSP HAS THE MOST SICKEST RACING GAMES!" Yes, they were talking that loud. I could tell the usual riders of the bus were none to pleased at the prospect of standing in a bus with a bunch of rowdy kids. Some of the later riders couldn't even get on the bus, so packed it was. I heard rumblings of, "Why didn't the teachers take them on the BART instead?" That made me wonder too as the BART would be faster, have more room and is safer for the kids than a lurching bus. They were just lazy I guess. Oh well. It was pretty fun actually. I haven't stood on a bus in a long time and trying to keep my balance against the lurches and swerves of the bus provided me with physical distraction. Got to work, answered some questions, did some work, got bored and now I'm writing on the Obs boards. Can't wait to go home, eat some food and go exercise. Then I'll play some sweet God of War 2.

That is awesome. I'm jealous of those who got the free TVs

Considering how early it still is since the PS3 came out, I was wondering if it was selling well? Judging by what I saw it seems that it's not. I just got back from Costco and there quite a few PS3 systems stacked up for sale. No one seemed particularly interested in purchasing one. The price tag was $799.99 I think, for the system, an extra controller and game. There might have been a few extras but I didn't care enough to look. Of course, this is just once instance, but considering I can't find a Wii anywhere in local retailers (not even extra wii-motes or nunchuks) is the PS3 doing well? I'm sure the system will pick some steam as more games come out, even though I heard Sony is losing a lot of exclusives (Devil May Cry)/, but right now seems to be floundering a bit. What do you think?

Its that good then?

I was a big fan of TMNT back when in the day. I especially liked the original comics by Eastman and Laird. The artwork was cool and the stories were dark and gritty (at least to my 5th grader mind back then). I'll probably see this movie, but when it comes out on DVD.

Not in the least. I enjoyed Knights 2 and NWN 2, both not their endings. I'm looking forward to a plane hopping adventure for a NWN2 expansion. Here's hoping.

I saw it with my girlfriend who was more than happy to see half naked muscle bound men run around on screen for her viewing pleasure. I still had to cover her eyes for the many decapitations and dismemberments. It was a good action movie. The spoken lines weren't exactly the best but I enjoyed the fight scenes. Shield bashing, spear impaling, sword swiping goodness.

I would remake the prequels posthaste. Hire talented directors, screenwriters that can actually utilize the talent of the actors. Make the whole Padme-Anakin romance not so awful and awkward. Make Anakin's fall more believable. Show a lot more killing of the Jedi.

The Vigoorian Flail. You can run really long combos with that and generate loads of essence. In Black, I loved using Lunar (the staff) against any enemies with quick movement. It had such a huge area and was so fast that it made up for the relatively low damage. That was the one! Nice long combos and you could hit people all around you with some of them. I'd run into the middle of the groups of ghost fish and just start swinging and about 90% of the time I wouldn't get hit by a single one of them. Also the most effective weapon against the Berserkers (Only on Very Hard and up in Ninja Gaiden Black)

What is the Bible referring to here? Is it the natural world that surrounds us? What kind of divine nature has been clearly seen?

I successfully goofed off today at my job, pretending to be busy on various tasks. It was pretty fun.

Music : Anything that catches my ear really, I don't have a preference. But I do enjoy thoughtful lyrics that go well with the particular rhythm or beat the music has. Book: Romance of the Three Kingdoms Movie: Hmm...impossible to answer. Maybe if I had to choose...Rocky TV: I really loved Paleoworld on the Discovery Channel I think it was. I still have a fascination with dinosaurs. Other than that I don't watch that much TV anymore. Cable TV: Don't have. Comic Book/Manga: Slamdunk or Berserk PC game: Planescape: Torment Console Game: Ninja Gaiden Black Drink: Water but will have Root beer on occasion. Food: All Food Dessert: All dessert Physical Activity: Pastime: Sleeping past noon on a Saturday, exercising for a few good hours in the afternoon, treating myself to some sushi and playing a good RPG during the evening.

The Obsidian Entertainment Building? I can imagine the stories now. Obsidian employees start hearing voices late in the night during crunch time. A ghostly wail that implores them to make more character customization options at character creation with detailed parameters in height and width options.

I think I already posted this but this is my own personal take on life after death. I am not sure whether there is some omnipotent celestial being that governs the totality of our existence and will be the final judge of all our actions. If the path to salvation is only through the acceptance of Jesus, does that mean that all my ancestors who didn't even have any knowledge of Jesus are now undergoing torment or in some kind of purgatory? I am not sure how Christians explain this. Anyone care to enlighten me? Anyways, I think we take our experiences with us when we die. Our soul or spirit drifts up to somewhere, and we're given some time to reflect on our actions and see the consequences of them. Our lives flashing before our eyes so to speak. I think there will be enlightened beings up there to help us on our way, answering our questions and offering insight. I think we're given a choice. Either stay there for awhile, resting, talking to other souls and thinking, perhaps reaching a state of enlightenment or being born again on Earth...or any other planet. In essence going back to experience more. Of course we don't really know what kind of life we'll have, but that's part of the journey. Our goal...is to reach a state of enlightenment and be at peace with ourselves. Of course I don't know what that might be or what it might feel like. I don't think that there is some SUPREME BEING that will say to me upon death, "Ok, you didn't follow my teaching or accept Jesus during your 80+(if I'm lucky) years of life in Earth. An eternity of torment for you." And if there is, man I'm screwed.

Damn all this talk is giving me the itch to build a new computer. Hmm..I was going to buy a 50 Plasma TV, maybe I should buy a computer instead.

What draws you towards playing a game? What keeps you away? For me its the story elements more than anything else. More and more, I look forward to a certain games that will offer an interesting story and characters, and the ability to affect the outcome of said story, regardless of what genre it is. RPGs of course fill this craving nicely, but I've enjoyed games like Half-life, God of War, Starcraft, Prince of Persia Sands of Time and the MGS series, which offer interesting stories and characters. Sometimes the sheer joy of gameplay will override everything else. Ninja Gaiden didn't have the strongest story, but the awesome gameplay more than kept me addicted. Likewise the Jedi Knight Series kept me addicted for awhile through the thrill of lightsaber combat and force powers. Force Pushing stormtroopers off cliffs never grows old. I found that I can't really keep playing games without that motivation to see what happens next. This is why I can't master any fighting, racing or sports games. This might seem silly, but I played through everyone of Tekken 5's story battles just to see how each character's story ended. Then I never played it again unless some friends were over. Things that keep me away from certain games are, (besides the obvious horrible bugs and bad gameplay) Random Battles Games that require you to grind - Most MMOs I guess. I want games to be fun not work. Thats about it. Penny for your thoughts?

Actually I read a comic where 2nd coming Jesus was cloned to fight vampires, with his ninja skills and divine powers. Battle Jesus wasn't too happy when he found out he was cloned. Haha, that sounds awesome.

Oh my science! But seriously, I don't think it would matter. The Christian and Catholic organizations are widespread and too influential to be shaken by a documentary that doesn't really provide conclusive evidence. Besides, its all about money, power and influence over the masses right? I doubt any organization will relinquish that in a hurry.

Whoa, how many games do you have on that thing?

Ahh yes, last minute panic is always the great motivator.

I perfectly understand you pal... I bought BG1,2 and IWD1 in 2001 and completed them 4 years later because of uni I bought NWN and its expansions upon their release and only played them and finished them last summer I have bought both kotor games and twenty other ones approximately and I have barely touched them... I just wonder when I will have the time to play NWN2, JE or dragon age... poor me... :'( I think you work too hard.
