I'm as big an Obsidian fan as anyone else, if they handled character development and writing for every game that would make me a happy guy. But TOR is a gigantic universe with a ton of different story threads, and I try not to let the bad ones bother me. For the most part they are few and far between. The whole Revanite cult is actually one for my favorite parts of TOR.

TOR destroying the canon of the KotOR's is just a silly internet myth. You are either thinking too highly of the lore from the first two, or you are thinking too little about TOR. All three games range between uneven and good at various times.

Yeah, that's really how I read it. Basically Disney is handing off a lot of the game business stuff to people they feel are more capable, since their own game development hasn't really gone well. Obsidian's shot at working on Star Wars is probably the same as it was before. Sadly I still don't think it is very good, as TOR is still alive and I doubt they'll release a single player game in that universe any time soon. Although with new movies, maybe they will launch a new RPG set in the EU. But most likely we will see 1313, possibly Battlefront 3, and movie tie in games.

I have a ton of fond memories of Skynet, I would probably buy it just to reminisce. It isnt like we have any other Terminator games to compare to.

I know a few people that enjoy their timeshares quite a bit, but there are a ton of different types. Do you have any decent social service places in Canada? Your parents are probably old enough to get some pro-bono legal help, but I have no idea how that works in your country.

Is there a reason why? It sounds like they are just offering extra rewards for the winners.

Space Marines are manly? That why they wear all that armor?

Hockey sticks? Skates? Big plastic helmets? Toys I'm telling you. Toys. You know I play video games, but you go after the manly sport I play instead? Interesting strategy

Warhammer is just those plastic figurines that people paint, right? I don't really play with toys, so I don't know what the big deal is.

One of my teammate's girlfriend is a professional photographer, so we all chipped in to hire her for the tournament.

If more people from the forum are playing it, should I set up an Obsidian Order custom chat channel? Sure, what server are we supposed to be on? I don't know how long the open beta will last either.

Made a new character in the Neverwinter Nights Online game, I was very happy with the options. It seems like the game will be a pretty good platform for RPing. My Halfling, Devin Eleven Toes, was able to choose from quite a few regions as an origin and a good chunk of the deities. Not sure what bearing it will have in the game, but it is a nice touch. Then I played the game for a few minutes and didn't get into it, the camera bugs me. It is a nice looking game though, I will give it a try later when I have more time.

Nope. We've all got day jobs, don't really need broken hands and stuff. Fighting will typically get you thrown out of a tournament or suspended for a few games. Honestly there is a lot of misunderstandings about Ice Hockey. It is a low impact sport, you can play it well into your twilight years because it is easy on the joints. Sure, at the higher levels it becomes very physical, but most recreational hockey leagues and tournaments do not have checking. Typically when people get hurt it is because they are not skating well.

Pretty fun picture from my hockey tourney last weekend. That's me in the blue helmet. Here is a more traditional rush pic.

That wouldn't be a bad thing, Rift was one of the better MMO's I've played.

I got a 4 on the color acuity test, which I'm pretty happy with.

That does sound like a very cool game, despite the shortcomings. Hopefully they get it released on the PC soon.

That looks pretty nice, very colorful. How does it play?

Yeah, my hockey based games are really all about gameplay and graphics, no story or world building really.

I'm also playing Game Dev Tycoon. I played the demo and messed up a bit by not implementing the gamepad before making a new engine, but now I've got the hang of that and I'm restarting. My Hockey Fighter and Puck Racer line of games did very well. edit: Darksiders is a decent action game with a fun setting, but Deus Ex HR was one of the best games I played last year, and LA Noire does a lot of unique things that make it a very interesting game (although it has many flaws.)

Huh? You can very easily tell it not to start up when you log in to your PC. You can also tell it not to auto update.

Back to the topic a bit, the three boys that were arrested for obstruction are in for a rough ride here. Choose your friends wisely, I suppose. It will be a shame if they are just caught up in this by accident, but I doubt that is the case.

There clearly needs to be reform when it comes to firearms. Gun owners would be best served by being part of that discussion, rather than stubbornly refusing to look at any possible compromises.

When I get a hundred emails all with the same information, I'm most likely to not even bother looking at it and simply trash it. I won't even read the first one.
