AHEM: You know... a lot of people go to the "Iraq had WMD" or "Iraq didn't have WMD" as reasons to go or not go in. I do not think that is the big issue here. I am not going to blame Bush, he was just the pres...and I'm not being fecitious, I'm serious. But it looks to me that someone hijacked the blind patriotism of America in the period after 9-11. 1) Towers fall 2) Chase BinLaden/attack Afghanistan These things are fine. It just makes sense to say "hey we aren't gonna take this stuff on our asses" . What is NOT fine happened afterwards: 3) Preemptive strike on Iraq They had NOTHING TO DO WITH 9/11. Honestly they haven't ever posed a decent threat to the US. You know that the documents that were used to prove they had WMD included the ones where the US GAVE WMD to Iraq... I mean, yeah they had WMD at some time because we gave 'em the things. Consider WHEN this happened: All this comes before we even finish with Bin Laden. This comes so close after the towers fell that people didn't question it. Anyway, it was at the wrong time. Side Facts: 1) A "War on Terror" can never be won. Whenever stomp out the baddies, you end up with more militant people that survive and you piss off a lot of innocent bystanders that have great potential to become the next terrorists. 2) Preemptive strikes are wrong. questions: 1) What if the world decided to come attack the US because WE have WMD(as we do)? 2) What would the US do if another country(say, N Korea) attacked another country (say, S Korea) in a preemptive strike because one thought the other had WMD? We would fire up the United Nations and do something to stop them. The only reason the UN doesn't come and stop our preemptive strikes is the fear of World War. About lieing under oath: I think its better to lie about an affair than to, say, go start a war under false pretense. If the lie was about having someone killed or about stealing taxes for personal use etc, thats different. /end rant. To be sure: I think Bush is trying his best and isn't much worse than any other political leader as far as ulterior motives. All leaders have em. Who knows, Kerry could have worse ones.

WWF is silly. Those guys are just acrobatic weightlifters. UFC is where its at. (Ultimate Fighting Championship?) THe grapplers are crazy on that. And yeah Bruce was the man. Very intelligent fellow I am very impressed with Jet Li, however. Mens Journal :

If BG3 is still about your god-child character, I won't buy it unless its in the bargain... or if it gets MAD props from reviews and everyone that I hear online. I really am not immediately interested in the god-child saga. Baldur's Gate and the sword coast have more to offer. I hope it is an all-new story in which the god-child character and the happenings thereof are mentioned, but not part of the active game. Icewind, however, is a different story. Icewind Dale was my favorite of the pre-3D. BG1/expansion was next, then IWD2. BG2 was pretty good too, but not as good IMO as those. I would love to see IWD3 as a new story and translated to 3D. but Obsidian may or may not want to spend any time on it... they might get bored with the DnD games... believe me, working on a project can become boring after a long time of development, unless everything goes w/o a hitch.

This is me at a party. There may or may not have been liquor involved, but I am about to jump on top of someone in the pool. The naked food juice was photoshopped in. I used to have that as my xanga page header. It happens to still be on my webspace, so.... there ya's go.

Well, bioware developed NWN for Atari, and they made their own site for NWN. I am not sure Atari had a NWN website, though they probably did. It is very possible that Obsidian will basically control the Atari NWN2 website... But I don't generally like the websites at Atari.com... Just look at the Demon Stone site... It is VERY lacking in even basic information other than screenshots and videos.

I'd like a Diablo-2 Style fast Action set in a space fantasy world like Starcraft with plenty of simple level-up skill options.. A good story is key, but not one where you have to make many decisions... I just want a good story and goodcinematics for the first time I play the game B4 you razz me, yes I'm serious. I get a kick out of playing a fast paced action-arcade game at times, mostly because you can play for a minute and leave for a long time... but the game is always available. Its like MS-PacMan, and I'm 100% serious about that. I find DiabloII to be the successor to games like PacMan Think about it. :D And yeah, it does bother me that sometimes the Diablo crowd influences real RPG game decisions. And its kinda bad when you get the action people in a game community and they complain about an RPG being too slow or boring and the like.

I agree with the King... Besides, I think this is about as active and honest a dev group as I have seen. A lot of developers don't spend as much time... or any.. on the boards. Good job all! Thanks
