Favorite Metal Bands
I'm probably more into the "heavy rockers" than the metal bands. Old favourites includes old Iron Maiden stuff, Accept (old german band), old Kiss stuff, WASP, old Black Sabbath stuff, old Scorpions stuff (another old german band), and the odd old Metallica track :">

Heroes of Might & Magic V Beta
I've only been playing it for half an hour so far, but it is currently on my shopping list... :cool:

Been to my first Game Developers Conference
My only problem with that is, based on experience, that the cd's/dvd's sometimes outlast the developers/publishers when they fold One reason for me to prefer physical media with a friggin possibility to back it up (i.e. no weird copy protection schemes).

Battlestar Galactica RPG??
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renegade_Legion An computer game was made over the Interceptor game. Turn based space ship combat/rpg hybrid Edit: And a fun game it was too.

Heroes of Might & Magic V Beta
*Sigh* As a rule of thumb, if I can find a no-cd patch for a game, I'll buy the game, if not, I leave it to rot on the shelf. If I had known that the patched Kotor2 wouldn't work with no-cd patches, I would never have gotten it in the first place

Face it Atreides... you are so doomed!

Inter-hall bacon cookout
So, pork leaves out the muslims (and jews if I remember correctly, correct me if I'm wrong). Beer leaves out quite a number of groups too... If you try beef, all the hindus will sacrifice you to Kali or some such... If you try vegetables, some enviromental extremist will blow up your dorm... Only one thing left... ... McDonalds :D

BioWare's MMO Studio
Knights (Check!) Princesses (Check!) Subclass: Damsels in distress (Check!) One dimensional villains (Check!) Magic (Check!) Dragons (Check!) Weird races (Check!) Guilds, classes, skills, etc. (Check!) Heroes that are no more believable than the villains (Check!) Henchmen to provide more skills/comic relief (Check!) Smells like fantasy

Interesting interview about the Warhammer MMORPG
I'm not Eldar, but I think I can safely answer that one anyway: Yes It's a "fantasy" version of Necromunda. Right down to the betrayals and backstabbing between players in the quest for fame and fortune :D

Tombraider: Legend
*Sigh* A remake of the original Tombraider game (same game on a new engine) is very high on my wishlish
-
Tombraider: Legend
There is a downloadable PC demo from Eidos website (500+ mb). Looks nice enough I guess and pretty fun to play too (the single demo level you get that is). Reminds me of a twenty first century Tombraider II.

Interesting interview about the Warhammer MMORPG
I've never really been into the MMOxyz thing, but I'll keep an eye out for this one... Especially if it turns out to be a computerised version of Mordheim

Interesting interview about the Warhammer MMORPG
The Warhammer universe (at least the old one, that I remember) makes White Wolfs settings look like Hasbros "My Little Pony" universe by comparison

Planescape: Torment soundtrack
I think both soundtracks suited their games and athmospheres quite well Same thing goes for Bloodlines, one of the most awesome overall sound experiences (voice acting and music) I can remember listening to in any game. It doesn't really seem quite fair to take the soundtracks out of context and compare them, but thats just me Why all the picking on poor Gabrielle ?

Planescape: Torment soundtrack
Listening to the music right now... :'( Somebody must be responsible for games like that not being made anymore... Please tell me who, I really need to hate somebody

Why do you hate YOUR country
Should it ever come to a test of strength between Queen and parliament (in Denmark), I know which one I would put my money on (hint: It's not the parliament) :o"

Light vs. Dark Side
Emotion is what got Anakin chopped into pieces. Jedi dont let their emotions control their actions. Sometimes, the DS vs. LS thing looks like brute force vs. skill and discipline. It reminds one of that old less sucky Van Damme movie, what was its name... Bloodsport I think. Various techniques pitted against each other, each with it's own strength and weaknesses, none of them really inherently better when used by masters.

Why do you hate YOUR country
Not to mention replacing the picture of Elizabeth on all the coins... :ermm:" Believe or not FoD, there are lots of places out there who are worse

Which KOTOR Character(s) in spin off game?
Add T3 even if just for the sake of continuity... Hmm... does that smell like Han Solo (Mira), A C3P0 variant with split personality (HK was also a protocol droid) and a wise ass R2D2 clone (T3) ;)"

Your Favorite 10 Movies
An exercise in futility. I can't even remember what 10 movies I put in the 3 previous threads identical to this one... Anyway, influenced by previous posters who jogged my memory, a cup of coffee, browsing my DVD collection and some other stuff (in no particular order): Return of the Jedi A Clockwork Orange (must be the sound track) Dr. Strangelove The Seven Samurais Delicatessen Little Shop of Horrors The Rocky Horror Picture Show The Fifth Element Bladerunner The Two Towers (extended version) Regards and regrets go out to all the great films that I just forgot during the 5 minutes of writing this post

The Show is going well! (Remember?)
Glad to hear that everything turned out well

What's wrong with Denmark?
The Swedes are the ones with the princesses, our royal family got all male heirs

What's wrong with Denmark?
Isn't that sort of the deal with mermaids... tricking people into approaching them ?!? :-"
