Ask me about Communism.
Hunting is actually a pretty popular activity in rural areas.

NHL
Lecavilier is having a pretty rough season so far, and St. Louis hasn't been big time for a couple years now. edit: You know, I just checked the stats, and St. Louis is still putting up a lot of points. Maybe it's the ugly +/- rating?

Capitalism is un-Christian.
It's more like saying Fact: I love my wife and daughter Sure, you could argue that love is really just a bunch of electrodes or whatever, but it is just going to sound silly to me.

So GD is the one being offensive here?

Capitalism is un-Christian.
Those who state belief as fact offend me. One can percieve belief in many ways, maybe a person believes in god, and I believe in one less god than he does, or perhaps christians should accept the existence of all gods, otherwise their own is infact unjustified. GD was stating facts about his personal beliefs. I thought that was pretty clear. You really don't need to be so hung up on it. I share his opinion, and I have a lot of evidence to back up my belief in God.

What you did today
there are reports that the neck jar thing they do can rupture/tear the carotid. at any rate, my neck has never been the same since my chiropractic visits over a decade ago. my back got better, but that was actually the result of exercise as far as i could tell. never again, and i would not recommend a chiropractor to anyone. taks A bad chiropractor can definitely do a lot more harm than good. I prefer massage therapists. You can't really do much wrong just working knots out of the muscles, whereas messing with the skeletal structure is sketchy.

Dragon Age discussion
I'd rate Dragon Age a good deal higher than Jade Empire. DA was fantastic. Of course I personally enjoyed them both, so keep that in mind. The difference between the two for me was in the world creation and lore. JE came across as smaller and not as well developed. Of course that is probably just because it was a more foreign concept to me to be in an Asian fantasy than a medieval fantasy.

What are You playing now?
I bought Star Wars: The Force Unlaced for the the PS3 to occupy me during my leg healing. I haven't loaded it up yet, but I think it will be a fun diversion and the price was good.

What you did today
I'm feeling good, I think I'm done with the narcotic meds and can just use ibuprofen to help the soreness. My swelling around the ankle and knee and gone, and I can put a bit of pressure on the foot now. Still bruised like hell, but everything is getting back to normal.

New Mass Effect 2 Character
Seven different archetypes is actually a pretty good number. I could see a complaint if there were like 3.

LoF is the only one trying to use scripture to prove his point.

Capitalism is un-Christian.
I pretty much agree with GD on the faith aspect.

This isn't really a revelation, no pun intended.

Will Obsidian end up with another Jefferson?
That's the thing, folks played Gothic 3 and enjoyed it. The developers took the good stuff and tried to improve on it. Now we have Risen, which is lot more stable and fixes some major issues. What else can you ask for? Not every game is going to be a home run.

Will Obsidian end up with another Jefferson?
Stop being obtuse. He's not the one being obtuse. He's right, all your examples are playable games with endings and functioning gameplay. It may not be up to your standard, or even the standard of the average gamer, but they meet a minimum requirement for functionality.

NHL
Patrick Marleau scored his 300th and 301st career goals last night, and they've all been with the Sharks. I really hope they find a way to keep Marleau and Thornton over the next few prime years of their careers. He has a chance of getting 500 goals all with one club, and that is special in today's sports. Makes all those trade rumors sound crazy over the alst two years.

Your Top Ten Games
These are personal top ten lists, Hell Kitty probably has a great reason for putting those games in there, and questioning the quality of those titles is a moot point.

Will Obsidian end up with another Jefferson?
I wonder is anyone here has actually funneled large amounts of their money into something. Investments are not easy. I don't envy publishers their jobs.

Movies you have seen recently
District 9 - Good. I guess it is set up for a sequel, but I can't really imagine it carrying the same message a second time through. I think it is stronger as a stand alone movie. Extract - Disappointing. Office Space is the bees knees, but this didn't have the charm. I suppose it's tough to hit it out of the park every time. I also watched my blu-ray versions of Galaxy Quest and Gladiator. Always fun, I like the extras.

What are You playing now?
Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes for the DS. Fantastic game, kind of a mix of Puzzle Quest of Final Fantasy Tactics. It really is an engaging puzzle and RPG mix.

Drugs are bad... mmmkay?
Well, is she fat? That might be your first clue... What an odd question. Brittany Murphy's weight and frame change drastically from her early movies in hollywood to the present. But eating disorders are sadly too common in Hollywood. Drug use is also seen as another way of keeping weight off. There is also a lot of rumor and conjecture circulating. She might have had diabetes, which can a be a very serious issue when trying to maintain the skinny hollywood look.

Ask me about Communism.
That is a bit of a stretch. He played a critical role in World War II turning out the way it did. He was a master orator and one of the earliest leaders to push for war against Germany. You can find major flaws in all famous leaders throughout history, but lets give credit where credit is due.

What you did today
I went poop after a 5-day hiatus. It was fairly wonderful. Merry Christmas everyone!

It did deny you KotOR 3 and giving you a MMO instead. *cries* This is awesome
