Funny. I feel very much the same way. I loved the first two movies and found the third one to be an unforgivable piece of crap. It might have been the over the top long and overdone sentimental ending that ruined the impression, hard to say really. Was I the only one who cringed when Elrond made that ridiculous flourished movement when presenting Narsil to Aragorn ? If Jackson had just cut the honey dripping Shire ending (which was about 60 minutes too long) and added the scouring of the Shire instead... At least Saruman does bite the dust in the extended version, even if it's at the wrong time and place

I'm too lazy to search for the thread, but I do seem to remember some developer/designer explaining it as a weasel like creature. Anybody got a link to those old threads ?!?

Euww... >_ That leaves "None" as the choice then. Since I use my PC for other, rather demanding tasks (3d renderings and animations among others), being a good game machine is just an added bonus, not an extra cost. Now, if they would just make those Playstation and XBox emulators legal (heck, they could sell them themselves), life would be much easier for us non console gamers

I read two times and couldn

They will never know what hit them Thanks Eldar. Of course, you had to post this while I was running around in Singapore with no internet access for several days (couldn't find an internet cafe) Now I'm back in the old country (Denmark) for xmas though, so I can lurk again >_

Any good Argentinian can tell you it was the Hand of God :blink:"

*Sniff*... *Sniff*... Is that soap I smell on your hands Eldar?

*Sigh* Fond memories of Re-Volt tournaments... not to mention Bubble Bobble

What the hell are you guys talking about? One of the best pranks on this board. Might even be better than the fake Kotor III link :D

It's all part of a ploy to get the US to "annex" Canada... while the Canadians are kept busy, we can grab Hans Island for good

A fair estimate, yes. Some games take longer than that. Don't expect the eight wonder of the gaming world with a development cycle less than that. Without knowing the specifics of the contract, there is only guesswork. Possible models are a fixed fee, split and paid for each milestone in the process (the publisher takes the risk and the profit). A fixed fee as before, but slightly less, compensated by a royalty per unit sold (the publisher takes a slightly smaller risk, but has to share some of the profit). Other models might apply, thought I doubt Lucasarts or Obsidian is going to show the content of their contract to the forum

And reptiles... Sir, would you please stand still while our drug crocodile inspects you :alien:"

I found the most difficult build to complete the game with, was an allround Malkavian, not really specialising in any combat discipline... it was so bad I even had to resort to a previous save and take a different "route" through the endgame (to avoid the hardest boss fight in the game IMHO) :"> Regarding Gangrels and needing a drink in Santa Monica, you can still squeeze a few drops out of rats, it's only Ventrues who are a bit squeemish when it comes to the menu It's just that Nosferatus get an awful lot of juice out of them.

Muahaha... that was step 1 of the sneaky Danish plan for Hans Island...

I think Revan felt like HK-47 and decided to leave Carth, Bastilla and the other no gooders behind... :-"

Happy Birthday Finger of Death (and Mr. Lee in case he is listening somewhere)

I prefer Disciple. The only character out there who can use some of those 27+ heavy armours you end up with. I avoid turning him into a jedi, so he and Mandalore can specialise in and use some of those nice high powered rifles that you get/customise

Ummmm...if ud looked properly ud've seen Mira/ Hanharr. Just to point out. You don't really expect me to read the full lines/sentences ? One vote for Hanharr.

Where is Hanharr ?!? The only wookie I've ever liked in the SW universe (I even hated Chewie)

Slightly off-topic (like 2-3 degrees)... For us less eloquent non-native English speakers, what does that mean ?

Yes, you need help :(" :D

Homm IV was a criminal offense against all good taste. The music was repetitive, the gameplay crap, the "animations" made people look like they had **** their pants when walking and the "heroes" had lost all their individuality and flavour. Adding an extra dimension to combat movement added nothing to the game. The only thing I can remember from top of my head that they did right was forcing players to choose development branches for cities, allowing armies to move around without heroes and the little numbers that showed how many turns it would take to go somewhere on the tactical screen (and the modifiers for ranged attacks). Not much to show for all the damage they did to the game (they ruined both heroes, might and magic)

Lets face it, you were not meant to be a Nosferatu :D
