Are you talking about Joe Thornton? Because after he pushes the Sharks into the playoffs, he'll easily be ahead of Jagre for the scoring title.

Might and Magic was king of the RPG's for awhile. MM3 was great, and Clouds of Xeen combined with Darkside of Xeen made one of the first real epic RPG's. It had a pretty solid revival with 6 and 7, but it was tun in to the ground after that.

It's the new Hexen. I'm excited to see the M&M franchise getting some new life, but I'm of course concerned about both this and the new HoMM. I hope they pull them off. This is definitely a FPS...First Person Sworder game.

Brother's Grimm was far from what I expected. It definitely wasn't a kids flick. I wasn't wowed by it, but I didn't think it was a waste of time. It had the hot girl from The Matrix.

Pearl Harbor was hard to watch. It had great action scenes, but the romance stuff was utter crap. My wife and I actually fast forwarded through all that towrds the last 3 hours. It was also like 7 hours long. Seriously, I was ready to fly into a battleship after watching that thing.

I was just thinking of Syndicate the other day. It really was an unbelievable game. It really plopped you down into a living breathing world. Looking back, it was doing the stuff that made GTA famous long before Rockstar ever entered the business. Doom is one of the most important games ever. It doesn't matter if you don't like FPS games, it raised the bar for the entire industry and brought in a huge new audience.

Oooh, calf leather. That will look awesome with my baby seal beanie.

Robert Blake lives in your house?

What Sony really needs to do is create a way to play the UMD movies on a TV. Right now they only work on the PSP. I heard someone was working on a way to port it, but an outside company will probably fail to keep the picture quality high. Right now there is little reason to buy UMD movies. They are too expensive and not everyone wants to squint at the PSP screen. If I can play them on the TV, suddenly I have two reasons to buy them.

I played the beta as well, and I agree with Haitoku. It's not on par with other MMORPG's. It can be compared to Diablo II or NWN since it's all instanced, but the real rub for me was the combat. It was way too fast. It felt like a clickfest, but I had no clue how effective my clicking really was. It has all the neat D&D skills, but the combat is so quick it's hard to make use of them. I suppose if you are more of a twitch gamer, it may be a better game.

How do you not have offsides? Isn't that an option you can turn on and off?

That's because the emotion wow shouldn't have both W's capitalized. I was confused as well.

Are there other kits? I seriously love the sniper kit. Some maps I'll just find a peaceful spot and watch an entire battle, just taking potshots when I see a good chance. I also love the claymores, which I believe I got you with once tonight. Still, you kicked butt on your team, Mr. Points Leader. We only played one map while I was on, but Alanschu led the pack with 14 kills in like 10 minutes.

Why would he? Has Will Wright ever really failed to deliver? He's not Peter Moleneaux. I'm not a huge Sims fan, but I still recognize its gaming brilliance. This is just the next step.

Dubliners is good stuff...depressing as hell though. I started a new series by Bernard Cornwell about the Holy Grail. The first book was called Archer. It's a good change from his Napoleonic War era series. He's a very solid historical fiction author.

I just think people are way too uptight about religious themes in movies. Religious stories have weathered the ages because they are timeless. Just because a movie has biblical symbolism doesn't mean you are suddenly going to become Christian or Jewish. I judge stories based on how well they are told, not whether they have religious undertones.

I think a few of them got a percentage instead of a full salary for Star Wars, I know Princess Leia did so. The reason was the budget was pretty maxed out for Star Wars, and there was no gaurantee it would be successful. It was a major gamble to take a percentage over a paycheck, but it paid off huge.

Sounds like the Old Testament.

Since the original post says he only has $20, he's clearly looking at the original Battlefront. I heard it's way inferior to Battlefront 2, so I'd save your money.

Why does everyone feel that borrowing religious elements ruins a story?

I thought the first Kill Bill was an excellent martial arts movie. It also had a soundtrack that worked perfectly. The second part dragged on a bit, and I thought Darryl Hannah pretty much ruined it.

Battlefield Modern Combat and Battlefield 2 are NOT the same thing. BFMC is a bad console game. BF2 is an excellent PC only game. They share nothing but the word Battlefield.

Alright back to business. I need the Sharks to beat Detroit. Luckily all the swedes will be out of the line-up, that should soften the Wings a bit.

Ok, they are two totally different genres. If you want Battlefront, go get Battlefield. It's better in every way, except it's not Star Wars, but I'm sure a mod will come out eventually. If you want Battle for Middle Earth...well I hate RTS games so I won't touch this one.

Ok, I'm still trying to enjoy ToEE, but I'm having problems. I'm level 3 now, but it's not clear where I should go. I went to an outpost and got romped on, I killed most of the undead at the battlefield... Also, a good chunk of the quests in the village are either too lame to finish or seem broken. I also can't loot bodies...it's a bug, but I guess they never fixed it in a patch.
