Ros, you need to add some of us to your battlelog. I'm Hurlshot24. edit: I'm not promising to give you a better experience, but at least when I accidently team kill you it will be fun to call me out on the forums about it.

Stephen R. Lawhead is a better Christian fantasy writer anyways

I haven't heard about any problems with Origin, in fact I barely notice it launches when I start up BF3. I'm going to go ahead and say it is less intrusive and loads faster than Steam. Has anyone had a legitimate problem with it?

Thanks Cant. There definitely is an age where trick or treating is no longer appropriate. But it is hard to find a better time of the year to meet the neighbors. It gives everyone an excuse to knock on doors and engage is chit chat. We went by a house near our street that was a bit off the beaten path, and they were super excited to see us, they hadn't had a trick or treater in a couple years. They gave my daughter full candy bars

My daughter had her first preschool Halloween parade (she was Snow White), and my son ran around in a lion costume. It was a lot of fun. I'm exhausted!

How in the world did it manage to hold on so long? Too Human bombed ages ago.

Make sure you remind us every three days. I am not in beta, I just don't know if its ok to say stuff about the game, don't really want to get into trouble. But I am sure if you guys wanted to get info you would have been able to find it by now. You are not under an NDA unless you are in the beta, or have been at one point. You will not get in trouble for posting information that has been released already.

The nice thing is you can shoot all those lights out and plunge the map into darkness. I was so excited the first time I got some glare from a lamp and I took it out with a shot from my rifle. It just made everything perfect for sniping.

This movie looks awesome. "What are you, a marines biologist?"

No. It probably won't expire until very close to release.

I had to look up the release date the other day, and I'm a bit confused about the fact it is being released on a Friday in the US. Isn't Tuesday our standard release day? What does this mean for all those midnight release parties? I just thought it was a bit odd.

If we could come up with a way to fix the entire malpractice suit system, I think the US Health Care would be great. Right now I pay way too much a month for insurance. It costs me $600 a month to cover my family, and that is only about 15% of what my district is paying to the insurance company. It's a fairly raw deal, we are all healthy and basically carry it in case an emergency happens.

Never trust the PR machine, eh. All I can say is that there is more to it than that. edit: After reading the article, I think they do a good job of explaining that too.

I read Iggulden's Ghengis Khan series, and I thought they were really well done.

I wish. I guess this just isn't Bethesda's thing. FO3 didn't have any either. You would think after watching Obsidian pull it off they would be interested in trying to give some personality to people that follow you around.

It's like your throwing it in our faces that you have all these different talents! The art, the modeling, and now the prose. A triple threat!

After the red rings of death, I'm thinking they will stay away from any circular terminology.

Hey, Korea got M.A.S.H., it doesn't need anything else.

I loved that guys videos. I wonder what ever happened to him?

I will say it has been faster to load BF3 with the Origin DRM check than all of my Steamwork games. It's the reason I've softened on my stance about it, I used to be fairly annoyed that I needed to use two separate things for games, but Origin is really pretty tame.

I double-checked it, they are definitely not charging you an extra $5 over the normal $60 if you pre-order. I'm not sure about the UK price. They are limiting the amount of pre-orders available to stop the server from getting totally swamped, they are also offering early access depending on when you pre-ordered. That has been crazy too, apparently Best Buy sold a bunch of CE's that they had no codes for, and they probably won't get enough inventory to fill their orders. I cancelled and went with Wal-Mart, which meant I paid extra for shipping but I figure it's a safer bet. I don't plan on buying many games through Origin, but then I don't really buy new games from Steam either. I prefer a nice box to put on a shelf.

It's not an extra pre-order charge, they charge you $5 for the pre-order, and then that $5 counts towards your final cost. I know there was some confusion about the way they explained it in their store, but it was later clarified.

I second Malcador's query. They are charging the standard price for TOR, $15 a month.

I'm not a big fan of comparing games with incredibly different graphical stylings, myself.

What do you mean? I think it got plenty of love, it's almost bug free and it took the best from B2 and put it in a futuristic setting. Plus B3 classes are taken directly from 2142. It's just that no one ever really talks about it. I'm not sure how financially successful it was, but it seems to get as little press as BF: Vietnam.
