Oblivion First Impressions
I'll refrain from editing your post; mainly because it demonstrates that you have no argument to make, and have resorted to name-calling. I call it as I see it. Have you another explanation? Another way to express the issue? Go ahead: I am not closing the debate, I am just making my own personal observations. Rather than lowering the tone (much more than you are even accusing me of doing) by name-calling, why don't you come up with an argument? I will be the first to admit if it's right. The poster attacked my spelling; I was acting in self-defence. (Go and look.) Or should I just sit and be a target? But thanks for playing!

Comics
You should be able to buy the TPB anywhere you can get comics. I even saw a hardcover, swede translated version at my local bookstore. But, IMO its not really that good. But on the other hand I didnt like "watchmen" either, and many people love that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, I just thought as the film is meant to be such a weak facsimile, that it would be good to go to the source ...

Oblivion First Impressions
So all the NPCs, making this a null sum. Get it now? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just for you, soon it might become clear ... Edit: PS It's not a zero-sum. As the PC gains power, so do the NPCs.

What are you playing now....
I didn't have a problem. Make sure you've got the latest DivX codec, if your game has encoded the FMV with DivX.

Oblivion First Impressions
There is a point: your PC becomes more powerful (read: more adept at wielding weapons or casting magic). fallacious (not sure how you messed this up as you could see how I spelt it), sic passim; immersion (et sic passim) being which Fans will make mods to suit themselves: that's THE WHOLE POINT in having a Constructor Set! You are hardly one to attack my syntax (vide supra); I may even get the Horse's armour add-on, if I feel like it. Moderation is a part time voluntary role: I still get to contribute to the fora. I just have the added responsibility to keep discussions open. But thanks for your concern, it means so much to me!

What happened to the Oblivion Chuck Norris thread?
Not sure what happened to the topic: I closed it because of a spam infestation (but I didn't quaratine it ... I didn't think the spam was contagious ). The power of Chuck is not to be trifled with! Here is the original post:

Tombraider: Legend
<{POST_SNAPBACK}> I liked the comic. I didn't like all the locker-room banter. Remember that there are people of all ages, races, genders and creeds posting here, and none of them should feel marginalised by what you post.

Been to my first Game Developers Conference
No. Worst of three options (i.e. superlative), taking the noun form. Worse of two (i.e. comparitive), used as an adjective or adverb. You are wrong. But thanks for playing!

I have read several dictionaries, but the reason that one is open is so that I can check the spelling (and the definition) of words that I want to use. That way, every written comment can be a positive education opportunity.

But I can't enjoy Fiction if it's too far removed from reality.

I know, you can feed it back to the author in some nice, formal manner (like a forum or commets section).

ummm... this'll change christianity
Judas was Jesus's little brother. Thomas was Jesus's twin brother. John the Baptist was Jesus's cousin, and he had a similar (yet inferior) claim to the throne (King of the Jews), direct line from Solomon and David. But, yeah, sibling rivalry is as good a motive as any for murder. :D

And change all your clothing to fairtrade labels, so that there isn't any exploited developing world people paying for your party outfits with their blood, sweat, lack of healthcare / superannuation and slave wages.

Been working on my Dyson Sphere campaign...
Sounds good: the knowledge of how they came to be could quite easily be lost, and then the cultures would crete their own myths ... some might even have some scintilla of the truth buried deep in their rituals ...

Half-Life 2
It's okay, I revived her. It was touch-and-go, with all the clumsy bullet holes, but she lived. :D

BioWare's MMO Studio
I already explained that. To some degree. It's when characters in a sci-fi space story have musical scores just for them. Luke's theme(when he looks at the 2 suns of Tatooine), Vader's theme, the imperial march, etc. Each piece of music is a theme for a character or group. Wiki's : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Opera Their description is ok but it describes to much Star Wars without mentionning music. This is not my opinion by the way but I read multiple times that music is an integral part of a Space Opera, specifically the themes. However, Star Wars is the first and to my knowledge the only Space Opera so I guess Wiki's description is pretty accurate. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No. Your knowledge is incomplete, e.g.: Flash Gordon.

Oblivion First Impressions
Because I was replying to a fallacious assertion you were making; Don't! To have fun. Who knows what motivates you? I don't care, personally. Levelling matters in a MMORPGs because lower level characters are connon fodder. If you aren't level 60, then the game is just a grind to get there. I haven't heard ANY soundbites from Bethesda, I am just refuting the illogic of your comment with my own game experiences. All first impressions are on topic, as are all comments on those first impression. Which is why my comment was on topic, just like yours. I wasn't complaining about your peeves, I was just pointing out the fallacious nature of them. No thanks, I like the community here. But thanks for the thought, it's sweet. Why do I have to tell you what the devs were doing? Am I working for Bethesda? All I know is that they created an engaging game, that I am enjoying playing. The levels are just there to make the game advance with your PC. They ain't perfect, by a long stretch: Gromnir is right, they are very clumsy. But, that said, they do work. PS I didn't like Morrowind.
