Graphics typically aren't cutting edge in MMO's, with Elder Scrolls Online I'll wait to really see it in action before making a judgement. But yeah, I've been underwhelmed by what I've seen so far.

Geez, if that woman goes around telling terrible stories like that to grieving parents, I can see why her son was crazy.

Heh, I just did read an article on a prison rodeo event they hold to raise money

I'm against the death penalty. Mainly I dont think any civilized society needs to be actively involved in the ending of lives. The only legitimate reason for that is to protect others. That being said, I think the penal system needs massive overhauls. In the US we use prison as an answer for too many societal problems.

42 - Very well done, made me cry a few times. A fantastic addition to the baseball movie library.

Hah, I used to have a group of guys I played Asheron's Call with, and we would meet at like 4 AM to run through these dungeons when they were empty. It was a very different time, that's for sure.

First off, this is gross. Secondly, what a huge waste of money. Thirdly, this really has nothing to do with the NRA. It is simply a tasteless vendor. I'd be more worried if I heard it sold like hotcakes.

Yeah I pretty much hate the way the camera and movement works. I prefer to hold down a mouse button to get the free look, and have a set camera as the default. I suppose I'll get used to it. I don't see this as a real direct competitor for DDO, at least not any more than any other fantasy MMO would be. First off I think DDO pretty much has their customer base locked in at this point, they aren't really attracting new people but they have enough of a loyal base to support the game. Secondly they are in very different worlds. And third, NWO operates very loosely with the rules, whereas DDO is a closer D&D experience.

Yeah I really see the mix of a sub and f2p feature as being the future of MMO's. Glad to hear it is working for TOR.

Yay! First sweep in history, and it was nice to watch Marleau put it in. That being said, Vancouver looked terrible. Whoever the Sharks face next will probably be a lot tougher.

I found out my parents are moving, which surprisingly made me feel great. It means I can go back to my hometown (well, where I went to High School) without worrying about seeing them. Considering they lived by the beach, this is a pretty big deal. Plus I can comfortably visit old friends. I don't really even know where they are moving to, which is cool as well.

It looks awesome, but I think they are giving away too much. It is supposed to be a surprise ending.

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.
