Awesome videos!

Sweet. This was unexpected. I wonder if Henkel is gonna be involved somehow.

Quoted for truth. In short, get higher capacity drives.

What do you mean by "traditional"? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> RPGs such as the Fallouts, Baldurs Gates, Planescape Torment, Icewind Dales, Arcanum, TOEE etc. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm sure people who grew up with games like Wasteland, Wizard's Crown, Pool of Radience and Bard's Tale felt the same way when those games you mentioned came out. Times change, evolve or do without <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Personally, my reaction was "Sweet"! I know Big Paper must have been pissed though. Grid paper went down big time from the 80s.

You could always create a character where you can dictate the pace. If I've learned anything from playing the game it's that you dont major in skills your going to use. If you want to be really "strict" on your leveling , then it's also a good idea to pick at least one from each stat group. For example Blade Hand to Hand and then only use them when you want to level up. Ditto with magic schools. Major in ones you never intend to use. Speechcraft is another one, just dont play the speech game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know all this. All of my major skills are controllable and I have each one representing a different attribute. Armorer (Endurance) Illusion (Personality) Alchemy (Intelligence) Alteration (Willpower) Hand-to-hand (Strength) Marksman (Agility) Light Armor (Speed) I think I am missing one but thats a good template based on character creation control. The problem however, is that this kind of setup is contrary to the design philosophy of TES and has been broken since its inception. Foolishly, I believed the successor to Daggerfall was going to iron out these flaws. The shorter production cycle of Oblivion gave me no hope for such a thing happening at all.

The whole scaling issue in Oblivion really puts a snake on my plane. Incentive to go out and explore places which my character is not meant to go is always my MO. In Oblivion, there is never the feeling that I am either intruding or in over my head. Also, the pace of leveling is WAY too fast for me. Like Morrowind and NWN, I will have to shelve the game until the game fans fix the problems created by the game designers.

Sure it can play the game, but can it play the game well? That is the real question.

It is my opinion that the Diablo series is the computer equivalent of Hungry, Hungry Hippos. Not that that is a bad thing.

Wasnt this done before in an issue of Ultimate FF and in Universe X? Or was that vampires in Universe X?

Juggernaut - He talks so much smack it is difficult not to include him. He is my tank. Magneto - Has leadership and can build bridges. His powers get crazy later on. Cyclops - Has leadership also so I can get double combo bonuses. Nice range combat. Scarlet Witch - Great support character. I especially love turning enemies into crates! Those tend to be my main team. I try and mix things up in the Danger Room. Fun game.

He is talking about the other one, . Is it still the same move if Juggs does it? Has Juggs ever done that in the comics?

They are games so awful you get bored just thinking about them.

I don't know. The evidence for the theory of evolution is pretty shoddy. Evolutions entire history is made up of lies and distortions and is practically a pseudoscience. Of course, you will probably write me off for saying as such. Who shall dare defame your God? Real science does not bend answers to fit a belief. Evolutionists are just as religious as the Creationists.

"You'll be dead at 82, Max!" "And.. loving it."

Evolution, like Creationism, is a religion. I mean, come on, evolution theory believes in spontaneous generation as science! WTFBBQ?

If something is unconstitutional, it is unconstitutional. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Show us where in the Constitution where it talks about seperation of church and state.

I have many favorite villians, all for different reasons. If I had to pick one purely on the basis of the sheer desperation they gave me, I would have to go with the Lucifige from Freespace. The dread the Lucifige creates surpasses even SHODAN partly because the Lucifige is totally faceless, not mention the fact that its totally gi-nourmous. From a story standpoint, I have to go with the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za and the Korh-Ah.

I think most games should do voice acting along the lines of the original Baldur's Gate. When you went up to a random guard or townsperson they had an audible representation of who they were. Subsequent releases abandoned this and I find the difference quite jarring when I switch from BG1 to BG2/IWD/TOR. Might and Magic also did something along these lines, with somewhat comical results. Who can forget the pirate ship captain that shouts "Hoist the flag and raise the sails! Arghh!"

What about installing a VapoChill? Hey, I installed a Thermaltake Crystal Orb on my PS2s Emotion Engine.

Is it wrong to get comics from newsgroups years after they are released? Or should you have to hunt down thousands of issues on eBay?

You will, once they start imposing conservative moral beliefs and right wing propaganda into every article and review they publish. Have you ever watched Fox News? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OMGWTF?!

Its the same impulse as when you see old men lament the bygone days of the cinematic musical.

Gotta go.. it was fun.. be back later.. there were flashing lights out front (cops pull cars over all the time by my house). I just heard a peel-out and engines revving so.. hmm. I was going to get something to eat but I dont want to get pulled over myself. Time for bed.
