Games that make you think
Have the player think by giving several viable dialogue respnoses. (S)he'll have to read carefully before selecting the relevant one (within reason). Related to my Optimal thread in NJ forum.

The end is the beginning is the end.
Yeah, I'll be getting a 360 to drive in the final nail into the PC coffin. Actually no, because it's expensive and I don't own a tv. The PC will always be around.

If Obsidian will make KotOR3, you will purchase it
I don't know if I'd want to see it so relatively soon. It's also down to the devs - they should feel happy working on the project so if they've had an overload of SW or feel bored that's not helping anyone.

No more cloth for me.
Heads up COF It takes someone special to lead, so take your time and you'll known when you're ready. Remember that God doesn't mean for you to shoulder the whole weight - He'll share it with you.

Movies you've seen lately
I just saw the 2004 Phantom of the Opera and I enjoyed it. I've always known the music and the story in patches so watching the whole thing from start to finish settles it, though I thought Phantom died at the end. Charlie and the Chocholate Factory was nice too, and before that Finding Neverland. Hey, my exams are done

Well the O.Loompas lose out in height, right?

Outsourcing jobs
While watching Burton's Charlie and the Chocholate Factory (great movie!), something bugged me about the Oompa Loompas. At first I thought it was because they all looked identical and were... lame. However when I realised that Wonka basically outsourced all his jobs (firing local workers including Grandpa Joe that was forced to live in poverty afterwards) and hired cheaper workers (hard to imagine if 3 cocoa beans per year was "lucky" by their standards), I looked at the O.Loompas in a different light. They looked Indian which I suppose goes with the outsourcing theme. After that I didn't mind the O.Loompas as much since things made sense, though I'm surprised Grandpa Joe wasn't bitter towards Wonka. Maybe he'd gotten over that after 20 years.

Whats up with all the short games ?
I think the internet promotes short attention spans. Especially now that I can have multiple tabs/pages open at the same time I find it rare for myself to finish reading something long without flipping to read other pages.

Worst Lecture Notes Ever?
I tend not to read my own notes that I write. The thing I like about my uni is they have lecture notes on the web where you can dl, print and bring to class. Besides being much better than what you could do I think the main dif is you can study before hand and absorb what's being taught rather than spend most of your concentrating copying notes down.

Didn't George confirm that there'd be cartoons that cover the time between III and IV?

Comics
I used to collect Uncanny X-Men till I realised that it was getting too expensive to keep up. Nowadays I waste money on MTG. I try to convince my self that it has better resale value.

I don't think you need to wait till the end to do that. You could have the "drunk ending" button available in the interface the whole game. Well, maybe there might be a "It is too dangerous to become a drunk hobo here" warning depending on the situation but yeah.
