  1. You also have no obligation to go into the Dark Zone. The game is pretty fantastic strictly as a PvE RPG. I'll give it a try eventually, but so far I've been exploring on my own, done coop for a couple missions, and enjoyed it tremendously.
  2. It's weird, but when I read American Gods I totally pictured Moon as American Indian. It's been a long while, so I'm probably wrong. I thought he was like some mix of Scandinavian and Cherokee.
  3. I already gave you the link above. See https://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/tyranny Feel free to vote. Ah, I missed it earlier. I added a vote. Do you think it gets enough exposure there? It looks like it is doing alright, 70 votes so far. It will need a good deal more to get attention though.
  4. So...did you start the petition yet?
  5. Madmartigan! Madmartigan!
  6. The thing with Bonds is you can greatly diminish the power aspect and he is still one of the greatest. He was a great fielder, runner, he hit for average, he had the best eye for the strike zone, etc.
  7. McGwire (and Sosa) are still marginal HoFer's if we discount PED's. Bonds and Clemens are absurdly qualified.
  8. I've always had issues with AA. My sister bounced around in it for years, and I always felt it was a terribly ineffective program.
  9. As I mentioned, your best bet as a consumer is to get a petition going and send it off to Paradox. They will take notice if you have 5-10 thousand signatures on it.
  10. huh? I don't see Fallout 2, X-Com or any of Shiny's games. but maybe it's just the bad picture quality I have Fallout 1, 2, Tactics, 3, and New Vegas. I have Giants on GOG, and Earthworm Jim once upon a time. Missed X-COM completely at the time of release. Later I loved Terror from the Deep. Terror from the Deep was the first X-Com I played, I think I had a demo of it or something... I loved it, I still think the X-Com games are some of the best games ever made. My life being the way it is, naturally I ended up meeting a level designer who'd worked on it. Anyways did I tell you guys that I've defected to... EA. *facepalm* Volo's gunna have a field day with that. According to a recent poll, most Obsidianites are in fact evil so it doesn't come as a total surprise. Welcome back, glad you're doing well. He wrote that 6 years ago, so clearly EA has him locked in a basement somewhere.
  11. Barry Bonds just beat the Marlins, including Giancarlo Stanton, in a home run contest. Sign him up!
  12. It is safe to probably assume this will be Steam only. This is a Paradox title that Obsidian is developing, so Obsidian will have no real say in anything in regards to the publishing side. That isn't to say that you can't put some pressure on Paradox to branch out from Steam. Maybe start a petition. I'd sign it, even though I have little issue using Steam.
  13. Interesting. I knew he wasn't going to go with a liberal, that would be a waste of time for everyone. The big question is will Republicans accept that this is a decent moderate choice, or will they try and roll the dice and hope they can win the presidency and nominate a more conservative voice. Seems like a big gamble, but heck if I understand half the stuff they do.
  14. You are young, give it time.
  15. Heart attacks aren't really unexpected either. They are a pretty natural way to go, usually predictable based on your genetics or diet. edit: I have high blood pressure genetically. I expect to have one eventually.
  16. Unicorns have a massive stabby thing on their heads, they should be way higher on the evil scale.
  17. But what about Lost Boys? I mean, I get disliking the other stuff, but there are exceptions!
  18. Well, they are calling it an RPG, so I'm sure I will enjoy it. Kind of looks super close to PoE, which confuses me a bit. I love the world of PoE, I hope it isn't a one and done thing.
  19. I'm excited to see the plans for our gold plated battleships.
  20. Well, Connery doesn't look as young as I remember: But Ford ain't no spring chicken:
  21. Well, that'll be something to waste $15 on. Well, no Shia Ladouche and hopefully no aliens means it can't be worse than the last one. They should bring back Sean Connery, although he looks younger than Ford now.
  22. I could see Kaepernick doing well in the Broncos system. I'm not really a fan of the guy, but given the right playcalling and a decent o-line, he's considerably better than a Sanchez.
  23. You do not need to do PvP or group in The Division. Speaking of which... I had a little time today after feeding the kids, and thought I'd try to knock out a story mission. To help it move along, I joined a group, which is super easy with the groupfinder. We get going, and my daughter comes over and starts talking to me about the show she is watching (Psych). I tell her it isn't a good time, I'm in a firefight, but being an 8 year old girl, I have to tell her a few times in incrementally angrier tones before she gets the message. We continue on, and then my wife comes in and tells me she has to head out, but has left a can of soup on the stove for my son (who I had fed about 10 minutes earlier.) Again, being in a firefight, I exasperate and argue with her about why I can't deal with the pot on the stove. We bicker a bit and she leaves. I then hear someone in the game laugh and say "This is why I'm glad my wife is a gamer." I'm still in a fight, so I don't really have time to ponder this, but in the back of my mind I'm wondering what the heck is happening. Then we all die, except for one guy, and as I'm sitting there dead one of the guys says "Hey Hurlshot, do you know we can hear you?" So I guess The Division automatically turns on your mic when you group. I have a laptop, and I never actually use the mic, but this game conveniently enabled it and broadcast my family antics to the 3 strangers I was grouped with. After a bit of conversation, I figured out how to enable the push button to talk setting.
