Unwinnable Battles
Rubbish. Bring luck into the equation and you're going to piss of many many fans; and with good reason. Skill (FPS) or probability/strategy (a much more consistant luck) work, but something beyond the player's (and indeed, designer's) control rarely ever will.

Never really liked Starbuck as a character.

Kara is the 5th cylon? Lord high leader of the Cylons perhaps? LOLOL How else does she plan to stop the cylons? Or perhaps they'll just fess up and the cylons will go "gay" and get stop attacking. WHO NOES.

Are you disappointed with Obsidian?
Heh. I gave up after the first year. I know they'll pull out a stunner eventually, but I'm not holding my breath as to when.

Anyone from the old BIS forum?
Try not to spam them too much guys. My friend's hosting them and that site already has a forum that eats bandwidth. Perhaps somebody else could host them? They aren't all there - we managed to download that many before BIS went down for realz.

The Battlestar Galactica Thread
I hated the end of season 2. Anybody else share that dislike? It seemed out of the blue and unnecessary.

The Battlestar Galactica Thread
Haha I am so tempted to ask for that too. But I've got 2 episodes to go before season 3 ends, so I'll hold out.

What if...
I guess it'd be the last of a long line of forum migrations. I've been with "them" since the BIS vBulletin boards. But everything has become so watered down since then. Everything is less... exciting; both the board dynamics and the personalities of people. Rose-coloured lenses? TBH I'd stop viewing game forums altogether. I'm only really here in the hope that Obs will strike it lucky and make a truly great RPG - something that hasn't happened for a while with any company, IMHO - but if I had to place bets, they'd be on Obsidian to do that.

That was Whitemithrandir? Haha never would have guessed. Zot-Fot-Pik was awesome, though - no debates.

Top 25 PC Games of All Time
I'm playing Halo ATM. It's boring and lifeless. Tried playing Sacred. It, too, was boring and lifeless. DOTA keeps me occupied for hour bursts at a time but it's getting kind of boring and lifeless. Why do games suck so much these days? It's not 'cause I'm getting older; there's seriously a difference between old games like AOE2, Half-Life 1, IWD, FO, Deus Ex... and the **** they churn out these days. I can understand the majority being crap... but ALL of them? No gleaming gems amongst the darkness? I haven't played NWN2 yet so maybe that's the gem - but it's still only one game in hundreds. I have a feeling it's because of the push for new graphics. The more focus placed on that, the more shallow the game. Now of course you'd expect this to be true, but the fact that every single game has shown this shift is disturbing. Old school? 6'8" Italian Warlord was old school. I'm not Karzak. Now go away.

Top 25 PC Games of All Time
It should have been HL1 instead of HL2... though I get the feeling this list is more about representatives then specific games. As such, I won't moan about only one of the FO's being on there. PS:T should definitely be there. Diablo 2 should be there (best games of all time, not best RPG's of all time, kids). Glad System Shock 2 is there. DX is there. Hmmm what else? Good to see AOE is there. Would like to Quake 3 or something there as well as KOTOR1. And IMHO Bloodlines should be up there but I can see how many people would disagree on that one. Karzak would be insulted... if he were still here. But I bet he got tired of baiting fools like you long ago.

This forum is a bunch of poo. Use vBulletin of PHPBB instead. I mean, where's the ****ing delete button, eh?- Vampire: Bloodlines
I would agree with you, Amentep. It felt rushed towards the end, and very hack n' slash, and no matter what I did to make the Prince irate, the most I got punished was a few less gold and one less apartment... ... the game was balanced more towards evil than good, but I suppose it was possible to save her and it IS the World of Darkness. And long time no see. EDIT: Don't get me wrong, I did love the game. I was fairly invincible as a Tremere brawler/shooter- The Black Hound FAQ
I ****ing love it! Go guys! Fight those French Interplay bastards. Oh wait. That was so a far years ago. Either way, it looks like an awesome project to take on.- TV: Heroes
- Wisdom Teeth
They're going to check if I need my wisdom teeth removed when I am back home next. Likely verdict is a yes. FLAMFLAMFLAMFLAMing piece of FLAMFLAMFLAMFLAM.- Black Mesa: Source
This looks awesome. But will they do Opposing Force, too? Hey Gorgon. What's up? Is Mistress Lair around? Y'know, you registered immediately after me... and it was almost 3 years ago now. Wow. Nostalgia alert. And hey, Josh works at Obs now. Coolio, but you guys hurry up and make a game that ain't a sequel, eh? Wish I had my original version of HL. My favourite FPS along with Deus Ex 1 and System Shock 2 and Giants: Citizen Kabuto.- World Of Darkness
Indeed. I thoroughly enjoyed Bloodlines. I think the WoD has a lot of potential. Have to say as good as Malkavians were, the Mage... Tremere were a lot more powerful and fun to play (FPS-wise... talking to stop signs is always gold). The game went to **** at the end. As did KOTOR2. Why do that? It REALLY ruins an awesome game. *sigh* Luckily, Bloodlines even had enough good choices to make to make me happy. I'm one of those people who just doesn't get a kick out of being evil.- Steve Irwin RIP
Stingray attacks are rare. Stingray barbs to the heart are very very rare. Unfortunate. Anyway they haven't told us he's dead yet. Just that somebody died when he was doing a show. Likely it was a freak accident, but freak accidents aren't that uncommon when you intentionally deal with the world's most deadly creatures. And crikey isn't THAT uncommon in normal conversation. It's by no means common, either, of course. He was a good bloke. Too bad.- Did Obsidian slip up?
Says on the jobs page they are working with the unreal engine. Perhaps (software engineer).- Will you survive the Apocalypse?
