Close - actually that title belongs to Torment! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ...yea; let's take ubermunchkinz & phat 1007 o'er an actually engrossing plot/storyline & incredibly rich dialogue an' NPCs...good call, Corky... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...only a single would e'er say such a thing... WORST ADVICE EVAR!!! ...WHO LUVS YA BABY!!...

...these bozos should give Avellone a Lifetime Achievement in cRPG Writing Award fer Planescape: Torment as well... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...just so's ya knows; if'n yer new username starts wit' "Darth", ye must first submit ta Forum-wide depantsing an' subsiquent anal-probin'; Unca Feargie supplies the firecrackers, though, so it be at no cost ta ye... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...hehehe...no worries, lad... ...funny how's I actually has lucid moments where's I seems ta actually know stuff, eh???...who'd 'ave thunk it???... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...hehehe...dunna sweat it, lad; I's still keepin' me 5 year old P3 533Mhz PoS (wit' the factory crappola speakers) runnin', 'least 'til I finishes gittin' the cash fer me new build...but if'n yer lookin' ta spend the cash on yer PC, look at the Sound quality o' what ye got compared ta what a good 5.1 set-up'd let ya enjoy... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...what's yer Speaker set-up like on yer PC, then???...the Logitech X-530's be the best 5.1 setup ya can git yer hands on fer under $100, hells prolly under $150... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...make your life 100% easier: ...buy a present for yer wife... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...AMEN, Brother Messiah... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...that Dell guy was right, but e'en that vid card ain't really all that grand; hells, the 9600's be outdated nowadays...if'n ya ain't much o' a PC gamer, then all fine an' well, but if ya wants ta start more PC gamin', than I's'd go wit' a gig o' quality RAM (OCZ, Kingston, Corsair, Crucial, Mushkin, etc) an' at least a halfways-decent Radeon (ATI) 9600 or a Geforce (nVIDIA) 6600... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...IWD was marketed as an' "ol'-fashioned Dungeon Crawl"; expecting it to be BG was a lack o' research on yer part, not a lack o' anythin' on BIS' part... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...ya know, I've heard an' read great things 'bout Undying an' walked by it a dozen times or more in bargain bins from Walmart to Blockbuster (hell, I betcha it's still there), yet had absolutely no ambition whatsoe'er ta buy it...mebbe next time I hit BB or WM I will... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...as many "tough" battles as there were in SoA, I dunna e'er remember dyin' 'cept fer me first run-in wit' the Flesh-ta-Stone trap in the Unseein' Eye quest (stupid Yoshimo, couldna tell a trap from a turnip); Draconis, on the other hand, wiped me sorry arse out thrice 'afore I got the "wash, rinse, repeat" strategy down pat...he had a particular hate on fer Sarevok, as I remembers, killin' the poor sap immediately e'ery time he seen 'im... ...IWD2 wasna tragically difficult (I only had three characters die on me once a piece; me Aasimar Pally & me Drow Sorc in the HA battle an' me stunned-arse Half-Orc Barby chic when she decided ta wander off on her own an' git gang-banged by Driders in the UnderDark), but I found a few battles, 'specially the Holy Avenger one, more challengin' than anythin' any other IE game had ta offer, 'cept fer maybe Burial Isle in HoW 'afore it was patched...hells, I betcha I died more in IWD/HoW more than I did in all the other IE games combined, includin' the times in PS:T wheres ya had ta die... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...Volourn stickin' up fer IWD2???...will wonder ne'er cease!!!... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...someone needs ta lay off the Goofy Juice... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...the drivers issue be supposedly fixed...an' as fer nVIDIA, the best ideas theys had lately was ta bring SLI back from the graphics graveyard...when ATI's X800XL hits the market hard, nVIDIA's 6800GT's gonna take a beatin' (the X800XL PCI-E card's sellin' fer 'bout $100 cheaper than the 6800GT PCI-E an' clocks from a wee bit lesser ta a wee bit higher, dependin' on the game it's tested an' clocked on)... BLAME KANADA! ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...KotOR canna hold a freakin' candle ta PS:T...anyone who believes different should be spade/neutered now 'afore they spreads the flawed DNA... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...warms me ol' heart that ShadowP still bothers ta post in PS:T topics...5 years o' the same "Final Fantasy pwns PS:T becuz...story...NPCs...water polo..." an' it still be good fer a laugh or two e'ery time...glad ta see 'nother "Ol' Timer" besides meself'll ne'er change... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...one word: YUMMY!!! ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...an' what if Josh joined Obsidian???... MYSTARY!!! ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...Josh would 'ave an aneurysm... ...I's'd pay good cash ta see it happen... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...biggest disappointment: Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn ...I couldna wait fer it ta hit the shelves; it was gonna 'ave all the tools that were gonna make it inta the greatest cRPG e'er made (an' after the sheer brilliance o' BG, how could ya doubt it???)...damn near brought me ta tears how poorly BG was followed up... ...biggest (good) surprise was actually a tie: Planescape: Torment ...what can I say that I ain't said 'afore; was simply enthrolled wit' it an' still am... AND Vagrant Story ...was expectin' a FF ripoff...what I got was a console RPG that kept me glued ta the Playstaion fer days on end (e'en called in sick fer work...two days in a row )...how pathetic, eh???... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

...why're ya e'en botherin', ShadowP???...remember; common sense and Helen Keller: Gully Dwarf Version dunna mix... ...as fer Troika; Potential only gits ya soo far, ya actually needs Talent ta hit the sweet spot wit' Gamers once in a while...Troika was plagued wit' loads o' the former an' far too li'l o' the latter... <_< ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...
