I agree with Meta. Speaking of religious extremists, when are you starting a new thread Gray JK?

Oblivion First Impressions
Ok, I still have a few hours before I can go pick up the game, but I figured I'd make a pre-empive strike. Anyone have it yet? First impressions? I know a bunch of people are waiting to buy it...and a bunch just hate it, but shove it. Let's have a Bethesda topic that doesn't get closed down in less than a day.

Official Obsidian Battlefield 2 Ranked Server Up!
Whoa...very cool idea, and I guess it's a pretty logical next step for the series. This could be the best use of Mech's in a game in quite awhile. I hope they don't make infantry obsolete.

Movies You Have Seen Lately
Closer was pretty icky. My wife pretty much glared at me for even picking it out. There was a lot of sex talk, but it wasn't edgy, it was just uncomfortable. It's also about people who can't be faithful to their spouses. I don't really get that.

Someone implied that I said Natalie Portman is hot. I definitely did not say that. I think she has the potential to be a great actress, but I have never found her all that attractive. Honestly she looks too young to me, but again, I've been watching her in films since she was a young girl. She's not ugly, but she's just not my type. Sorry Natalie.

BREAKING NEWS: PSP GOING DOWN THE PLUNKER
The PSP has no real PSP games. It just has PSOne games on a small screen. They need to make games that are actually good on a small screen. I'm not throwing mine out though, I have faith that it will prevail.

How did you link your gamer card in your signature? I was trying that for awhile and couldn't get it to show.

More Harvest Moon.
It's the greatest farming game ever made!

The Hot 100 Game Developers at Next-Gen.Biz
I bet it will only be developers at the GDC this week. That's likely why they are writing the piece.

Oblivion GOLD!
I hate keywords, especially if I have to type them in. I don't think it takes away from character development, but it certainly doesn't add to it. I like having a variety of lines to choose from, because I'm not that creative. It's easy character development, just follow the tone you want and allow professional writers to make you sound witty.

The make-up is pretty impressive though.

Oblivion GOLD!
I should be picking it up today. I've got a few games set aside to help cover the costs (as trade-ins). I'm not terribly excited because with my schedule, I won't be able to play it much until April.

From Hell with Johnny Depp? I remember liking it. It was pretty dark.

Thornton missed an open net tonight. I guess he's like "I want to capture the scoring title with as few goals as possible."

I'm going to say Natalie Portman's best films are now: 1. The Professional 2. V for Vendetta 750. Star Wars Trilogy

I just bought an Xbox360
I just got one two weeks ago, so don't bother listening to all these envious naysayers. First of all, if you can get a broadband connection running into it, you've got some pretty good demo options. I recommend the Marble game, and the free puzzle games are pretty decent as well. Secondly, the best bang for your buck title for me has been Amped. It's a snowboarding game. which I generally have no interest in, but the controls are easy to jump into and the cut scenes are absolutely hilarious. Oblivion is out tomorrow, so otherwise you've got a short wait.

Shootouts are pissing me off. I'd probably be ok if my team ever won, but it's seriously messed up.

I absolutely loved V for Vendetta. I didn't think it was contrite or overdramatized. It had a nice mix of action, activism, and emotion. It's difficult not to love a guy who is clearly insane.

My Review of Dungeons and Dragons Online
Anyone remember Strife? That was a cool FPS style game. edit: Oh Hades, did you join a RP server, or is that even an option? Not that there is real RP on those servers, but after the first month they tend to settle down as a mature group of gamers.

Top 3 reality show thread
1. Survivor - the first season was awesome, and they haven't really sold out yet. It's not a comfortable experience for any of the contestants, as evidenced by the guant look they all have after a few weeks. 2. Project Runway - I don't know why really. I guess it's because they really do work their tails off on this show. They are doing something that I would have absolutely no clue how to do. They take some cloth and make pretty amazing stuff from it. 3. The first few seasons of the Real World. It used to be an interesting social experiment. They had people from various cultures interacting with one another. Runner-Up - 30 Days had a few good episodes.

Money is okay but teh gays are bad?
They do advocate chastity. For one thing, I can't really speak for Catholics, since I am Protestant (woo-hoo!). But one reason why they might oppose homosexual priests is probably the same reason boy scouts would oppose gay scout troops. Not necessarily out of homophobia, but out of safety. Imagine this: you have a male priest who has taken a vow of chastity. Sex is a part of human nature that, like any other part, starts to really get to you once you go without for a long time. Then say that this priest was homosexual. A priest who spends much of his life around other men AND young boys. The chances of a homosexual priest abusing a young boy would be greater than that of a heterosexual priest abusing a young boy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That is utter BS. Sexual predators and homosexuals are not similiar. The homosexual priest has the same chance of engaging in sexual conduct with a child as the straight priest. The Catholic church WAS moving towards being more open to gay priests. It's quite recent, and a sign of our current pope, that they have renewed the attack on homosexuality. In the 90's the Catholic church even aknowledged that homosexuality is a genetic disposition.
