That's my biggest fear. Something about the stupid AI wasting ammo and never taking cover/retreating when it makes sense to. Well I played it with a "don't give the computer stuff I might want to have later" approach and it worked fine. Typically the AI will have the controlled character retreat if the player retreats, so some awareness of the other characters situation helps.

Nimoy only did the episodes he was contracted for; I think he's in two episodes in season two and, having retired from acting, probably won't be in the show ever again.

I enjoyed it playing alone, personally. You have to be wary of the computer AI for the other player, but overall that was never really a problem. In fact I never played it with anyone else, so my experience was all single player.

Go Dwarves Go!

I had never experienced motion sickness in a game until Far Cry 2. Something about how the camera moved just didn't sit well with me though. To date its still the only game to make me motion sick.

Be interesting to how that pans out.

This is what I thought it was, what with the camera sometimes closing in on the PC's face and following a bullet to its targer. Sadly most of the reality of VATS was that you were looking at a closeup of a supermutant's chin as your character unloaded a gun into his head while blocky blood spewed over the screen.

I quit Far Cry 2 in 5 minutes because the camera movements were giving me motion sickness... I think that and FFAdvance are the only ones I sold without playing a bit; I think 30 minutes is usually the "turn off, having no fun" point. You missed out on some awesome healing animations and the cool buddy system. FC2 was a flawed game, but it had some pretty cool ideas. Yeah that may be, but its "awesome healing animations" and "cool buddy system" vs "vomiting due to motion sickness".

"Hey I bought this game for 40

I'm pretty sure the easiest way to differentiate is Gridiron Football (US Football) vs Association Football ("Soccer", "Football") that's already in use (and allows the further ability to distinguish between Australian Football ("Footy"), Rugby League Football and Rugby Union Football

Close, Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System I got as tired of limbs exploding off in FALLOUT 3 as I did people slowly being ripped apart by bullets on a critical death in Fallout 1 & 2 (or even the slow as molasses collapse and bleed out animation).

I don't really have an opinion on women's armor in the sense of a typical rounded cuirass vs a sculpted look (ala the Greek "muscle cuirass) vs impractical cleavage cuts. I do wish you had a variety of options for your character, but I confess to being peculiar over the armor my characters wear as the same look isn't always "right" for different characters. But in the end I always roll with what the game gives me.

I'd say disallowing goals for offsides is probably one of the most likely reasons for goals to be disallowed.

A JD may meet the qualification of holding the terminal degree in the field. But I don't know many colleges that are falling over themselves to hire JDs who don't also have some teaching experience and/or publication history. The schools here only require a masters (at least) and 18 hours of coursework taken in the area to be taught. Research institutions favor doctoral level degrees (for which JD and MD both qualify), though (but masters are fine for the gen ed courses even there). Most new hires at research institutions have a time frame in which to be published (some I know have been given 7 years, at which point the school is looking at whether to grant tenure to the faculty member...or fire them if they haven't published). While they're not making big money, I've known a few JDs who got burned out on the law profession who started a second career teaching business law courses to business majors at local colleges & universities.

And if all else fails, someone with a JD degree can also teach at many (if not all) colleges!

That's because you're not a real man. REAL MEN AREN'T ASHAMED OF WEARING FUNNY HATS IF THEY HAVE POWERFUL STATS! AS I DID IN DRAGON AGE! ROAAAAAAAAAAAR! I didn't need a vanity view to be impressed by the Dragon Age Funny Hats.

Vanity view = I hated having to run up to walls and spin the camera around to try and get a close up look at my character & what they were wearing in other games...

Yeah I've read that here - I just find it interesting how the gamesite previews have such disparate takes on the game (some that don't seem to match what the devs have said).

Hmmm, the information seems to be conflicting over the story aspect of the game.

My only hope from an action RPG is that it not be too fiddlely. And by that I mean if I have a button to attack, one to do a "special attack (magic/skill)", one to feint, one to dodge left, one to dodge right, one to block, one to jump, one to parry, one to dodge roll left, one to dodge roll right, one to switch weapons, one to switch spells/skills then I'm never going to remember it and will spend most of the fight trying to figure out what button I'm supposed to press until I die.

I thought that went without saying? You can have a different magic system that does squat in any game, or does something but requires you to sacrifice small goats every 3 minutes and isn't fun.

I have hope that we'll get something interesting and different though.

Plus you'd have to account for every possible combination of spells (otherwise its not mix and match its "occasional additional effect - find what works!" system).

Lets see: SPEED RACER - this is such a fun film; I still think its a shame it didn't find a wider audience. MONSTERS VS ALIENS - what can I say, I'm a sucker for 50s themed monsters...and fighting aliens! Also BOB is hilarious. THE DARK KNIGHT - Its still a bit longish feeling, and I think the end isn't as clear as it could have been, but its a great Batman-via-crime-drama film. AVATAR - still think its a little preachy in its pro-environment, human consumption = evil, and its not terribly original, yet it manages to compost all of its elements into an entertaining whole. BOTTLE ROCKET - didn't get into it, thought it wasn't terribly funny and the finale - "a heist" is weak.
