Sheesh, I barely slip under the wire with the minimum specs. Except for the fact I dont even have a Core 2, but a single core 3GHz. Do you suppose they actually wrote code that utilizes multiple cores or its just a matter of the Core 2's being so much faster?

Very cool. Of course, the problem isnt the technology, which has been freely avaiable for years, its the infrastructure. There just arent any stations to refuel at. Even this program suffers the fatal flaw of only providing stations in the city where the cars are sold. What happens when you need to travel in excess of 200 miles?

Huh, wadda you know. @Hurlshot: Are you somehow affiliated with that developer? @Llyranor: Clicky

Wow, only 30 days for running over someone while drunk. That must have been a big ass check!

That does mitigate my anger. Hopefully, you are right about this. Even if it doesnt ship with an OEM browser, from the article:

Aye, Ill be the big four-oh this December.

Ah yes, "paying it forward". I agree with you though, good does beget good, and vice versa.

I know man, I know...

The Uninvited Not scary at all but at least I didnt see the end coming. Role Models Pretty good and several spots had me laughing out loud.

Had a good weekend. My daughters 9th birthday kicked off with a party attended by a bunch of her school friends followed up with a sleepover. Its just the cutest thing ever.

I would like to gauge opinions on this. I suspect most of you will agree because Microsoft eats babies but to me this sounds totally ridiculous. Do they actually expect a company to provide their competetors product on their software? Seriously? Why, because nobody should have to actually d/l it themselves? Opera and Firefox should be given a free ride on Microsofts dime? What?

Level 10, endurance bump and a new hatchet, woohoo!

Huh, very interesting. It wasnt that way in North America afaik but I can only speak for the 4-5 servers Ive created toons on. The worst thing that happens to me is about 2-3 times a month I will inexplicably get "Disconnected from the server" and have to relog. I mean, of course I too sometimes get lag, especially in a pitched WG battle but besides that its smooth sailing. Blizzard is golden in my book. Every single game Ive ever purchased from them (Diablo, Diablo II, LoD, WoW + all expansions) has been flawless right out of the box. I cant say the same for anyone else.

Maybe they are? Mkreku had a great post a while back about his experience beta testing for Blizzard where he stated that their Beta builds were like other companies Gold + 2 patches. Maybe they are better, with a much tighter QA department and a bottomless pit full of zots. Maybe they just care more about their products. Have you every purchased a bug riddled Blizzard game like the crap other companies pump out and then shrug their shoulders over?

What the hell was a 16 year old doing drinking in a bar? Whats the drinking age in England?

I think only Quebec is hardcore French, even going so far as to make French the official language for business and street signs. Also, every once in a while they try to break free of Canada and become their own country which is always good for a few lulz.

Lucky you! And congratulations btw. But you have to give us insider news now as well. Tell me, is Bio working on Jade Empire 2? Tell me now!! Otherwise, today's my birthday, and I completely unexpectedly got a Wii from my sister. Wow. Now I wonder what games I'm supposed to play on it. Congrats and Happy Birthday respectively!!!!

Im not 100% sure since everything I know about 4E I leared on this forum but I seem to remember that the Sword Coast survived pretty much untouched.

Are you all patched up? IIRC, there was a known bug that caused this problem at release and I thought it had been patched out.

i wouldn't be surprised, particularly if work on something had started, or contracts were signed, before 4e was officially released. in the end, it all depends upon contract issues i'd guess. taks Well, and Maria Caliban has a good point: Would be kinda hard to 'splain that in-game.

Isnt there a "grandfather clause" that allows Atari to still use E3.5?

Lol, thats what I was afraid of. I was considering buying the game just to see exactly what this sacred cow was all about but what you decribe is exactly what I figured it would be. I think its one of those games that you had to play when it first came out to appreciate it.

Eh, I thought she was pretty hot for a redhead. Then I went and ruined it by googling her. Lets just say she looks better live than in still picture.

Yay, you can now play a bad MMO for free! Except your toon will be a gimped POS unless you spend $15.99 a month keeping him in the latest gear.
