There's no way I can remember them all, and I lost my list in a computer crash a few years ago (I'd made it in response to a thread like this on BIS IIRC) Anyhow from the top of my head: Adventure Albert Odyssey: Legend of Eldean Alien Storm Alisia Dragoon Alundra Arc the Lad Collection Arcanum Arcus Odyssey Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal Beyond Oasis Black Magic Blazing Heroes Bomberman: World Breath of Fire Breath of Fire II Brigandine Bruce Lee Capcom vs SNK Capcom vs SNK 2 Chakan the Forever Man Champions of Norrath Champions: Return to Arms Chrono Cross Chrono Trigger Culdcept Darkstalkers Darkstalkers 2 Dead or Alive Dead or Alive 2 Dead or Alive 3 Dead or Alive: Xtreme Volleyball DemiKids: Dark Version DemiKids: Light Version Diablo Diablo II Diablo II: Lord of Destruction Disgaea: Hour of Darkness Dragon Force Druid II: Enlightenment Dungeon Lords Dungeons and Dragons: Heroes Dynasty Warrior 5 Extreme Legends Dynasty Warriors 5 Ecco the Dolphin Enemy Zero Entombed Eternal Champions Eternal Champions CD Eye of the Beholder Fallout Fallout 2 Final Fantasy Final Fantasy II Final Fantasy III Final Fantasy IV Final Fantasy V Final Fantasy VI Final Fantasy VII Final Fantasy VIII Final Fantasy IX Final Fantasy X Final Fantasy X2 Final Fight Fire Emblem Freedom Force Freedom Force vs The Third Reich Garu: Mark of the Wolves Golden Axe Golden Axe 2 Grim Fandango Guardian Heroes Guilty Gear Isuka Guilty Gear X Guilty Gear XX Haunted House Hoshigimi: Ruining Blue Earth Hunter the Reckoning Hunter the Reckoning: Redeemer Hunter the Reckoning: Wayward Icewind Dale Icewind Dale II Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter Icewind Dale: Trial of the Luremaster Invictus Jade Empire Kartia Katamari Damacy Knights of the Old Republic Knights of the Old Rebublic 2 Kuon La Pucelle Tactics Landstalker Legend of Oasis Lego Star Wars Lego Star Wars 2 Lionheart Lufia II Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete Lunar: The Silver Star Story Complete Magic Knight Rayearth Maniac Mansion Monkey Island IV Monster Rancher Monster Rancher 2 Morrowind Game of the Year Mortal Kombat Mortal Kombat 2 Mortal Kombat 3 Mortal Kombat: Armagedden Mountain King Neverwinter Nights Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrinetide Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark Neverwinter Nights 2 Night Watch ObsCure Ogre Battle Omnimusha Tactics Persona Persona 2 Phantasy Star II Phantasy Star III Phantasy Star IV Phantom Brave Pit Fighter Planescape: Torment Pong Pool of Radiance Populus Puyopop Fever Rampage Rampage Total Destruction Rampage World Tour Resident Evil Resident Evil 2 Resident Evil: Outbreak Resident Evil: Outbreak 2 Rhapsody Riviera: The Promised Land Romance of the Three Kingdoms X Rule of Rose Sacred Gold Samurai Warriors Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Soulless Army Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2 Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne Shining Force Shining Force CD Shining Force II Shining Force III Shining in the Darkness Shining Soul Shining Soul II Shining the Holy Ark Shining Wisdom Silent Hill Silent Hill 2 Silent Hill 3 Silhouette Mirage Sonic the Hedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Soul Blade Soul Calibur Soul Calibur II Soul Calibur III Stella Deus Street Fighter Alpha series Street Fighter II Street Fighter III Streets of Rage Streets of Rage 2 Summon Knight Summon Knight 2 Super Puzzle Fighter Super Street Fighter II Tactics Ogre Tactics Ogre Gaiden: The Knight of Lodis Tecmo's Deception Temple of Elemental Evil The Last Blade II The Seventh Saga The Warrior Tombraider Touch Detective Trace Memory Trap Gunner Tunnel Runner Vagrant Story Vampire: Bloodlines Vanguard Bandits Venture Vigilante 8 Vigilante 8: Second Offense Wacky Races We Wild Arms Wizardry 8 Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land Xenogears Xenosaga X-Men Legends X-Men Legends 2 Zak McKraken and the Alien Mindbenders Zombie's Ate My Neighbors Dangit, now my brain hurts!

Yeah, the track choices on that game really fit the setting and were greatly energetic which always got me into playing the game. Lets see, I'm rather fond of the Planescape: Torment soundtrack and Icewind Dale. And Vampire: Bloodlines was done rather well (Arcanum had some nice songs, but there was no depth to the soundtrack.) Tactics Ogre I really like an awful lot. Great marches and character songs. Xenogears is another good one. As is Vagrant Story. And I loved the music to the original Valkyrie Profile game. Great soundtrack there. Final Fantasy III aka Final Fantasy VI was the first game soundtrack that made me want to own a copy of the soundtrack (luckily Squaresoft had a way to order it from them at the time!) I got to admit while I wouldn't want the soundtrack, I love the cheesy march music from the Freedom Force games. Probably my favorite soundtrack that I was never able to track down is for the Resident Evil: Outbreak series. Both game soundtracks have great songs and the opening theme is beautifully haunting. I probably like the songs on those two better than the Silent Hill soundtracks, which are also very good.

I I think there are actually nice uses for "unbeatable" characters, but its all a question of storytelling, ultimately, and how specifically the issue is handled. In the Lady of Pain's case its clear that her position requires her to be unbeatable of else it makes no sense, and she's generally not supposed to be an opponent unless a character specifically sets out to antagonize her in which case they get their just desserts, IMO. Perfect use of unbeatable characters (in both the PnP and the PS:T game)

Hmmm, I dunno something about this doesn't ring true. Could be wrong, but I'll wait until an official announcement to worry about it.

Well I can't imagine it sold too poorly - isn't there an official expansion on it coming out pretty soon? That'll probably give a little bump to the original NWN2 sales as well. I still haven't got a copy but I'm pretty sure I have nothing that will play it (pity too, as I enjoyed the bit I played at Dragon*Con last year...)

Invictus was one of the worst games I ever played. Had a great idea and some interesting artwork but the actual battles were IMO poorly designed and planned. In particular I hate the one in which you had a time limit to run across the map without stopping to fight all the opponents you'd trigger to try and find someone who'd been kidnapped when you had no idea which part of the map they'd actually were supposed to have run off on. Took me several increasingly frustrating tried to figure out where they were in time and then defeat the opponents and rescue the kidnapee. But maybe people who are better at strategy games would like it more (although I seem to remember reading poor reviews of it after I'd bought it).

because the sound takes place of the text. Eh...maybe its just me but that makes no sense. But I'm probably just a crazy loon and I really shouldn't derail the thread because of it...

So why is this "comic book style" when comic books are image and text, not image and sound?

If you use VampEd you can look at all of the possible skin options; I thought of making a list but then figured most people would just download VampEd than look at a full list. I actually like the non-unique woman in the white dress (IIRC its one of the Goth Girl skins) although some of the unique ones are fun too!

What is "comic book story delivery"?

AFAIK She blacked out; I'm under the impression she's supposed to appear again on the island

I still have it. And it was, oddly enough, one of the games in the forefront of my mind while reading about the game!

Very little information, but I've been on the bad end (ie playing) a fair number of Greek Mythology inspired RPG/TRPG/ARPG/other initials and to be honest the little blurb doesn't overly excite me. Maybe that'll change with more info, screen shots and what have you...

Personally I liked FF8 and FF10 better than FF9.

I didn't like being forced to play the game in certain ways (the "rules" system that would force you not to use certain items/spells/classes/whatever) and I hated the conceit of it being an "imaginary" story.

I hated Jurassic Park on the Genesis. I know others liked it but I didn't. It had some interesting conceits but I'll be honest I got tired of platformers around that time, so maybe that's it. Speaking of Toe Jam and Earl, while the second game was a dissapointment I didn't hate it. I did really dislike that modern game that came out a year or two though.

Glad it worked. I had a lot of fun playing around with the models. :D

I confess, I almost missed the old rants and raves about Fallout. *tears up*

Hmmm, well there are loads of duff games out there I've bought and played. Stuff like Bugs Bunny: Rabbit Rampage, Shining Tears, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Shadow Madness, Impossible Mission, X-Men for the NES, Druid II, Dungeon Lords, Invictus, Jurassic Park for the Genesis, etc.

You know I saw the shorts and it confused me because I couldn't figure out what it was supposed to mean. Usually stuff they show on TV is a reference to..well...something. But in this case it seemed like a total non-sequitor.

There is a file called "clandoc.txt" that has all of the paths for character models in it. If you've installed any of the patches I believe the file should be openly editable in the Bloodlines directory without having to extract it. There's a tool called VampEd that can allow you to easily check the path for the model you want to use. Its then a matter of editing the PC Character models to be the ones you want. For example if you want your Tremere to look like VV, you'd edit the Tremere models (for all 4 armor levels) to models/character/npc/unique/downtown/vv/vv.mdl Darque's initial posting about this can be found here

No, it just seemed that way.

Ant-Man has been optioned for a movie already, so it'd probably be whoever gets cast there. Wasp may/may not be cast there but AFAIK the Asian Wasp is only an Ultimates thing.

I always knew they couldn't be trusted.

If they keep making poor selling Fallout sequels and spin-offs you'll get your wish sooner or later.
