I'm ok with that, sports games have basically been RPG's since Sierra released the awesome Front Page Sports series.

I think there are no outside locations in the game. I'm sure there aren't, I meant for future games.

I'm pretty sure Mass Effect has reached its conclusion. I know the universe will continue to be used, but who knows what type of game that will be?

When I shave my head, that's what I tell myself as well.

Grimrock also just has a great simple character design that really brings back the memories. My first RPG was Might and Magic 3, and this immediately felt comfortable for me. It's nifty and well worth the price of admission. I do hope we move out of the catacombs eventually, I prefer to adventure in the open air.

It does seem there is some wishful thinking here, and it isn't Volourn doing it. The numbers indicate that , at minimum, ME3 is a solid hit. We typically hear when a title like this fails to meet expectations, so all this speculation is baseless.

You seem really hung up on the baldness thing. Everyone ages differently.

I thought it was brilliant, but I also wonder what kind of overhead there is for that.

What's the deal?

I don't know, I mean there are people that liked the ending to The Sopranos as well. There are some weird people out there.

I doubt Chris Christy would bother with the VP spot, he seems to be thinking bigger than that in 2016.

Caved and bought Legends of Grimrock. It is awesome sentimental goodness.

They should have hired some big time writer to create memorable characters! Oops...

For awhile I was thinking Herman Cain would be a good fit, but the way he exited the campaign makes me think he isn't an option. I hope he doesn't pick Santorum, and I doubt Santorum would accept anyways. Gingrich is also probably not an option, although I personally wouldn't mind. Ron Paul is probably not an option either. So that leaves someone less well known, I suppose. Pretty hard to predict, I just hope it isn't another Palin type character.

Yes, I think it deserved at least a 1 game suspension. That was excessive, it is one thing to throw an elbow around in the corner, it's another thing to target the opponents head and then grab them from behind and slam them into the boards for good measure. I'm really surprised by the ruling.

I was pretty upset that the Giants traded me to the Nationals in my game of MLB The Show. But then I really started to tear it up on the AAA team Syracuse Chiefs, and the Nats have enough holes that I may get called up the the majors a lot earlier. I just started my second season and I'm batting .330 with a few taken out of the yard.

I've done something similar, I gave a multiple choice test where the answer to 11 straight questions was choice B. It freaked a few kids out :D

Last night my wife dropped her Ipad. Somehow it ended up catching the corner perfect and totally shattered the screen. She was very upset, so we drove over to the nearby Apple store (about 30 minutes away.) There was a line to get into the store. When we reached the front, she showed her Ipad to the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper said we need to schedule an appointment with a tech to diagnose the problem. I exclaimed that the problem was pretty obvious. She then told me it was like a doctors office. I walked out shaking my head. So we waited two hours for our appointment. When it came, the tech said it was broken and it would be $250 for a new one. It took him 5 seconds to "diagnose" the problem. Thank you Genius Bar. I hate Apple.

I think I remember Shea Weber doing a fair amount of that stuff early in his career, no?

I really enjoyed how ME3 used the characters from ME2. They all made appearances, some of them more awesome than others. Heck, it even made me like characters I previously didn't care for, like Jack and Thane. I just don't see how you can claim the relationships don't carry forward. Just because they don't sit on board the Normandy? They are busy fighting the war in their own way.

I stopped for a couple months, but the last week I've been playing a lot again. That's pretty typical of MMO's for me. I still really want server transfers. Entrerix, I grabbed your last post and quoted it in the ME3 thread so we can continue there if you want.

That sounds ridiculous. Did you play ME1 and ME2? I fail to see how ME3 is a huge departure from those two, particularly ME2. I'm also pretty sure your opinion is in the minority. The only major griping I've heard has been over the ending. Heck, the whole Tuchanka section was one of the best parts of the whole series.

Did they screw up ME3? They created an ending that a lot of people disliked. Do we judge a 30 hour game solely on the last 5 minutes? I don't. The rest of the game was great. I also don't think it was a lack of caring that led to the ending being lame.

I doubt Bioware is purposefully sacrificing quality. They are trying to make sure their product appeals to a large audience, as is EA. That is the difference with a small company and a big one, a small one can survive easier off a niche product. But Bioware was moving past that before they partnered with EA. In fact EA seems to have given Bioware a lot of free reign, they didn't push ME3 out the door, it was delayed a couple times. TOR was given a huge budget. I disliked DA2 tremendously, by the way, and I blame Bioware for it fully.
