What are you playing now?
Has Clear sky had enough patches to not be quite so crash prone.

I have advocated 'axes to the death' be admitted as an Olympic sport for years. Maybe these shows could provide a good testbed.

Topics for Cretins: Fallout 3
I'm going to wait for New Vegas before playing Fallout again. I know it a bit too well I think.

Driving on Salvia
For the longest time I thought the title was driving on saliva and I kept waiting for him to spit in a contained of some sort and use it to power the car. By the way I hear salvia is quite potent and not to be messed around with idly. You need a buddy there to look out for you lest you start wandering around the freeway naked.

new monitor
What did you wind up getting. I'm looking at Samsung's syncmaster series, it's supposed to be quality and value for money, I don't know which one to get though. Is 5 ns fast enough, do I need 2 ns for gaming. Is a smaller number better. What resolution is the best choice, well more is always better, but some resolutions are a bit unpractical. I know nothing of these things. I have a little spare cash, and I though it was about time to leave 1024x768 and flicker effects behind.

Best to represent Britain?
How about a national lottery, to determine succession that is. I mean I'm a Republican at heart, but the monarchy seems to be good for business, dragging in the tourists and profiling industry and whatnot.

I procrastinate too much.
Remove distractions. I used to go to the library to write uni stuff, it's a boring place, ain't **** to do but what you came there to do.

Best to represent Britain?
Speaking of which, they are making us vote on whether to make succession determined by the first born, or by sex, that is a boy doesn't automatically trump a girl. I dunno, If we are going to have a ludicrously outmoded job like "King of Denmark", the concept of equality seems entirely out of place. Start with making the king an elected official, then we'll talk gender discrimination.

My mother has a boat full of action force figures protecting the glasses in the kitchen, some family had to stay a couple of nights or something, I can't say I have an easy time believing that they would be better than something.

New Monkey Island series announced
Truth be told the first two didn't have more then two pixels between them to flesh out the characters, but the surroundings and the music were great. So were the text based duels. Never played the later ones.

New Monkey Island series announced
Concept art looks a lot better than the renders. A line drawing has soul, this just looks like a weak toy story imitation. Only exception I can think of is the top of my head is Wall-E. Yes I know this is not a feature film so the complaint is beside the point, but still.

When the source material is as weak as GI Joe, maybe it's for the best.

French plane lost over the atlantic
Oh nevermind, the page has been updated since.

French plane lost over the atlantic
Doesn't the transponder show altitude. If the last data shows the plane in a dive it's not looking good, if it doesn't then the lack of a signal means just means that.

What you did today
Pills are your friend. I find that just a couple of days of using them will knock the internal clock back to normal.

Relic developing Warhammer 40k action RPG
They are all still inescapably designed around a tiny lead figure having to look distinct and impressive from across the table. Sometimes they look cool up close anyway, but when taken out of their original element the result is usually poor. Ohh and don't forget about the Orcs, they are almost lame enough to drag the whole franchise down with them.

Relic developing Warhammer 40k action RPG
Speaking of space, has anyone played the adons to Sins of a Solar empire. I still have the game, although I thought it was a bit simplistic and streamlined for the multiplayer experience to begin with. Space RTS, fine, Empire building multiplayer... ehh whats the use. This game is trying to be both and succeeding at neither.

Venezuela off the rails
No one actually goes through the trouble of declaring war anymore, they just start shooting.

Also Grand Torino, yesterday. I thought it would be some emo family film, turned out hilarious.

Reviews and Bethesda
NWN got pretty good with the various adons, NWN2 couldn't have much in the way of exploration because the engine couldn't handle it.

Pictures of your games
During my stint in guildwars I purposely wore poorer quality armor because it was the only style I could stand looking at, but this, is much much worse.

Reviews and Bethesda
The skill point system was certainly poorly thought out. I remember purposely not choosing the skills I wanted to use the most as major skills, that way I would have the maximum 3x5 ability score points per level up. Lockpicking was just agility, or was it intelligence, training to me, I always carried around the maximum number of picks. Before I could afford that I never bothered with locks, as there was never anything but random generated crap behind them, and the random generated crap got better with higher levels.
