That was the most depressing movie I have seen in awhile. I related most with her husband.

Here's one I use in some games. http://somafm.com/listen/

Many Star Trek episodes are based off classical literature. You can find the same themes in Greek and Roman mythology, as well as Shakespeare and many other famous authors. The writing really was superior, although I don't think it fared as well after TNG.

I'd go, but it sounds like y'all are kinda nitpicky with this stuff. Shoulda, coulda, woulda...Plus all that posting of pics and journal sounds like school work. I think I'll go grade papers instead.

That is unfortunately true. Olympians are forced to pay their own way pretty much all the time for US competitors. It's a bit better for Summer gamers because Track & Field and swimming don't have much inherent costs, but ice time and year round snow are expensive. I think other countries are a bit more supportive financially with there potential Olympians.

Can you give more info. on Domino? I've been thinking about renting it. It doesn't cost me anything, but is it worth the time?

Good finale to a very good Olympics. I was rooting for the underdog Finland, but there is definitely no shame in the silver. Selanne looked pissed.

I keep on trying to find a way to get into Temple of Elemental Evil. It has the trappings of a good game, but the first town is huge, confusing, and boring me to death. I went off to some outpost and got romped on. Now my cleric is dead and my party just barely hit level 2.

Nicole Kidman naked made it very watchable. I thought it was actually a fairly good film, lots of secret society stuff. I think you need to be in the right frame of mind. It's a slow film, if you don't go in with patience, you'll probably dislike it.

Hmm, pretty tough questions. I remember enjoying it the first time around, but I didn't get far in the story. After a few missions in Balmora, I went to work for a guild. For some reason, I really enjoyed the Fighter's and Rogue Guild missions. They were mostly, go here, kill this NPC, but it felt like I was making good progress. So I'd recommend hitting the big city and joining a guild.

Whenever you guys want. I'm always on Xfire, just jump on and give me a hollar.

Legally they are treated the same, as evidenced by the fact that these women have been getting jail terms and have to register as sexual offenders. The problem with the law is when an 18 year old and a 17 year old get together...the parents can actually charge the 18 year old with statutory rape, whether it was consensual or not. That will stay on his or her record forever.

It's Johnny Mnemonic. I hate it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok, I remember liking it, so that will be my movie.

Keanu Reeves has done some of the best geek movies ever. Other than the Matrix, he also did that cyberpunk one where his head was a hard drive...I can't remember the name. I swear he had another one too.

I hated Sin City. It reminded me of Max Payne, which I also hated. I guess I just don't like graphic novels. Bad similes, over-dramatized dialogue, and frustrating lighting. My favorite movie that everyone else hates is the Final Fantasy one.

I'm wking up at 6 AM for the gold medal game in Hockey. I missed the Russia/Czech game, but it sounded uninspiring. What happened to Russia? Did the offensive superstars all die?

I picked up Civ last week. I actually played like 8 hours yesterday, but my Xfire doesn't seem to be picking it up. I'm not good at all, in fact I just lost a huge map on pretty easy difficulty. I seem to have trouble commiting to the offensive. I research and research, but never really use my technology. So if anyone wants an easy game on a weekend, I'm up for it.

Actually Buffy and Angel were critically acclaimed and major draws for the WB and UPN. They didn't bring in "American Idol" numbers, but they brought in enough to run for 13 seasons combined (I think...8 for Buffy, 5 for Angel?) They were top competitors in their time slot. They definitely appealed to a certain demographic, which is also the demographic you'll find on the internet. Hence the fact you don't see many advertisements for old people on either one.

Couple crazy matchups forthe weekend...Scandinavians and Eastern European madness. I guess Malkin really was missed in the Russian game...I don't know how they shut out a team with that many pure goal scorers. Geez, I've watched a ton of games this week.

Hmm, no Survivor fans here? I actually really enjoyed the first season. It was new and unique then, at least to the US audience. Unfortunately there are too many reality shows out now. I also think the first few seasons of The Real World were huge too, before they turned into drunken frat parties. Buffy, Angel, and Firefly were great guilty pleasures. My favorite cartoon was GI Joe.

Everyone seems to judge Bethesda on one game. Personally I remember and loved Daggerfall and Redguard. Redguard was more of an action-adventure game, but it had a very tight story. As others have stated, Oblivion will tell us whether Bethesda has learned from Morrowind. I don't see the need to be so negative about it.

Yes, the people here are in the minority. This is a small community. Most people hear Fallout 3 is in development and, if they are familiar with it, probably look at that as good news. There are also a ton of Elder Scrolls fans. It's really only the hardcore fans that are concerned.

Unfortunately Finland and Russia are playing in the next game, but I do think that's the game for the gold medal. The loser will probably take bronze. They are very dominant this year. Selanne and Ovechkin are awesome. Why did Malkin get suspended? I watched the game and don't remember anything bad.

A ****ing echo in here? That's what I said they aren't doing much except publish the game. If they did some actual work on it like Bio and Obs than yeah maybe it should be on their site. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Part of publishing is advertising. A web site is an advertisement. I don't want Obsidian wasting their resources on a web site.

It seems like a lot of people are missing the importance of NWN2. The original campaign is exciting, sure, but it's not the thing that makes NWN2 different than any other game. This is not KotOR, Oblivion, or any other standard RPG. NWN2 is a powerful tool that allows the community to create any world they wish. If you want to play an evil character, find a mod, or join a persistent world and be one. http://www.atari.com/nwn2/community.php Go look at a few of the persistent worlds there. They've all managed to run succesfully on NWN and will probably only need a few months to do the same on NWN2. Do not confuse these with MMO's either, these allow as much creativity and flexibility as you and the DM's desire. If NWN2 is anywhere near the original, it will be far superior than any standard RPG on the market.
