That's a shame, the tutorial is rather lame in that you can't play the way you want to. After that it turns into whatever you want it to.

It will be interesting to see if we can ever get a mainstream hit out of a video game property. I saw some Halo commercial the other day and it looked like a movie, but then it turned out to be a game trailer. The Final Fantasy movie actually did pretty well, I think it pulled in close to $100 million. The problem was it cost over that to make, so it is considered a bomb.

I see your Aeon Flux and raise you an Ultraviolet. Actually I think its a draw. Charlize Theron is pretty perfect in that picture.

Some of them have their charm, like the Resident Evil series. Eventually I think we will get a renaissance like with comic book adaptations. Those were terrible for a long time too.

I'm super excited to play an Orc, it's easily one of the coolest origin stories out there for how they came into being.

Ouch mkreku.

Monthly charges for the third line really only come out to about $30 a month. She watches both my young children during the day, so years ago we decided it would be a nice perk to offer her. She is a family friend, so we get a pretty good deal on the babysitting charges compared to putting kids in day care. I'm actually making her pay me back for the phone though, if I was footing the entire bill she'd be using a flip phone. Plus she sends us cute pictures of the kids throughout the work day.

Whatever your opinion of the graphics, it is the first modern MMO to throw the standard conventions out the window. The Secret World is nice because combat forces you to be active and move around, but when you go into a dungeon, you still need a healer, a tank, and a DPS build character. You need gear that works for your build. I'm not saying that is a bad thing for Secret World, but it simply means it still follows the formula in that regard. Also, as much as I love the non combat-centric quests, the game really pushes you to repeat it all more than once, and there really isn't much of a storyline difference between the three factions.

Yesterday I upgraded all our family phones and switched from Verizon to Sprint. It set me back a pretty penny. My wife and our babysitter got Iphone 4S's and I picked up the Galaxy III S. They are all pretty slick, but I'm going to miss my original Droid.

Then this is pretty much the only MMO out there that will suit your tastes. I disagree, this game is pretty heavily reliant on builds, gear, and the trinity of DPS, tank, and healing. Guild Wars 2 sounds like a better fit if you want to avoid that stuff.

I still love my original Droid, it is a bit slower than all these new things but it does everything I want. The voice recognition rocks, GPS works great, etc.

That's the way I feel about it too. Seriously, there might be such thing as too many options.

Where can I buy those?

I just watched the extended cut, and I really enjoyed it. They expanded on what I had mostly assumed about the middle ending, where I get to spread my DNA everywhere like Wilt Chamberlain and everyone gets to live. I had said back when I finished it originally: That was my positive view of the situation back then, and it was nice that the extended cut simply fleshed it out.

He is still likely the top line combination with Parise and Koivu. But really, I think the drama with Heatley is overblown. He played less minutes in San Jose, even served on the third line a few times.

This game is pretty hard. It definitely requires more thought and strategy than most MMO's. Today I fought a bogeyman in a solo instance. There was no way to bring in help, he had twice my health, and he killed me 5 times before I figured it all out. Now most big baddies in TSW have a special attack, and it's best to get out of the way of those. They typically take place in a radius or cone attack. The bogeyman had a few more tricks. He started out with a cone attack, which I avoided. Then he did this odd attack where I had to run in close. The area outside of his radius was hit hard, which was tricky. Then he did this random attack where he was invulnerable and I had to just dodge explosives going off in circles all around. The last attack was the worst, he got me a couple times before I figured it out. Basically behind the guy is a small shack, and in order to avoid this massive radius attack, you have to run in there and hide. It was frustrating, but once I beat him it felt great.

That's really the definition of Stephen King, and most literary critics would support you in that. He is the ultimate workman author. His talent is quantity. He can write a lot of decent books faster than almost anyone, but he's never put out something truly great. He is like the antithesis of JD Salinger. I'm not knocking him, I still think it is amazing what he does.

Was he bad in Minnesota? He was good in San Jose, he honestly just lacks the speed needed to score 50 goals, and it hurts him defensively too. He had 24 last season and I think that is about what you can expect from him. I don't think 30+ goals is an unreasonable expectation for Heatley. He was never a fast skater, and now that he is a little older, it's even harder for him to get space. So 30 is reasonable, but I'd still expect more like 25 from him.

That pretty much sums up my feelings on George RR Martin.

Pretty scary stuff.

Go with a classic King, like Cujo or Carrie.

Volourn, we all agree Jagr is a world class player. No need to belabor that point.

It's on sale right now, Hurlshot: http://www.amazon.co...1/dp/B006ULENFG $10. There are also a few Paradox Packs going round at similar prices for DLCs and other things, but I don't know if they're still on. I don't know how long this price lasts.Gogo! Sold! I've never bought something through Amazon's downloadable store (only hardcopy stuff) but wow, it downloaded super fast!

How is that even possible? It usually only takes a couple of hours to realize a game stinks, if that. If you spent 50 hours in a game, then it must have done something right.
