    Birthday Notice!

    Happy Birthday Keero! Now you too can legally experience the thrill of consuming exorbitantly priced fluids in order to gain a short period of involuntary stupidity followed by a long interval of feeling sickly and generally miserable!

    What class will you play?

    Right now it's looking like the Agent is going to be my first. I just love the idea of being a manipulative, behind the scenes character, and I also see the class as the most representative of the military of the Empire, which appeals to me for its sense of order and discipline. Plus, what...

    Target release date

    As long as they use the extra time to get it right I'll be happy, I've got too many games to play right now as it is. I just don't want to see another repeat of what happened with KoTOR 2.

    STAR TREK Online BETA!

    If I ever get around to it, I may give this game a shot, but there's so much on my plate gaming-wise that it's unlikely that I will. If anyone should happen to need a key, I have one extra that I can give, just PM me if you want it.

    dream game project, who's interested?

    To be frank, what you are suggesting be made is virtually a pipe dream. Such a program would have be able to identify patterns in both geometry and textures, and do so at a level of sophistication that I have never heard of existing anywhere. The same reason captchas work is the reason why this...

    Steam Sale is now up

    The fact of the matter is, I couldn't tell you how half the things I've bought are, since I've not had nearly enough time to go through them all.

    Steam Sale is now up

    Curse you Steam! My bank account cries out for mercy! I caved (again) for SFVI and Darwinia / Multiwinia, how fortunate then that my 360 controller adaptor decided to up and start working again today. It appears that I have had HLDM:S without ever actually noticing; we should try to do some...

    Questions about quitting World of WarCraft

    It's almost kind of eerie in a way. I came back to my character after two years off, and it was like that slice of my life had just been frozen in time. The talents get wiped because they reset them when they get a major update, but as has been said, nothing gets lost at all. In fact it can be a...

    Avatar (the James Cameron fim, not the "last airbender")

    I fail to see anything wrong with being "paranoid" about the messages that films promote. If anything I would argue that it is irresponsible to ignore them in favor of viewing any form of media purely as entertainment. Entertainment is obviously a central part of productions such as Avatar, but...

    Avatar (the James Cameron fim, not the "last airbender")

    The problem with Avatar is that you needn't try at all to see the political message, you simply need to sit back and let it repeatedly bash you over the head with it. Still, purely as a movie it is very good, and I certainly enjoyed it - enough to see it a second time, something I haven't...

    Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl Improvements!

    Just about 5.6 gigs, and It's been so long that I don't really remember the profanity. In my experience, it's prettymuch unmatched for atmosphere, so I'd definitely recommend it at a mere $2. Or you could get the THQ pack, I need more people for Company of Heroes and Red Faction Guerrilla...

    Avatar (the James Cameron fim, not the "last airbender")

    There's no denying that the political messages are indeed heavy handed, that said though, I think I'd have to say that it was still a pretty good film, and certainly a spectacle. I can't really decide what to think of it overall, I enjoyed it, but it also made me mad. I have never experienced...

    Steam Sale is now up

    Mmmm, as if that THQ pack I picked up at Thanksgiving wasn't enough, now that Eidos deal is looking awfully tasty. Given the arrogance that Activision / Infinity Ward have displayed lately, it seems very unlikely that there will be any significant MW2 sales in the near future.

    Black Friday shopping

    Mmmm, that THQ pack looks so good.... Anyone know if I could gift myself some of the games if I bought it as a gift? I have some of those games in non steam versions, and if I got the pack I'd like to be able to give away the duplicates.

    Star Wars The Old Republic

    I'm not going to criticize this statement beyond this: however good your intentions are, this comment come off as condescending in the extreme. Whether you are right or not is not the matter in question here. People will have a very hard time indeed rallying around you as a leader if they feel...

    Star Wars The Old Republic

    I can't believe I'm going to be nerdy enough to continue this discussion, but I'm going to have to disagree. While the individual Sith might indeed resemble a chaotic neutral alignment in their motivations, you have to remember that the system they create around themselves is indeed very...

    Would you get Windows 7?

    Just got Window 7 Ultimate at the campus bookstore - $15. Thank goodness for student discounts. Now here's hoping that attempting to upgrade doesn't wreck my pc for Thanksgiving break.

    Star Wars The Old Republic

    I think you're a bit confused here: The Good: -The Old / Galactic Republic: Most of the galaxy up until the events of SW episode III - Lawful Good -The Rebellion: Members of the republic who objected to the formation of the Galactic Empire - Chaotic Good The Bad: -The Sith Empire: various...

    Star Wars The Old Republic

    I have a number of thoughts that I would like to put out there, so I'm going to break this up a bit First: However large our community may currently be, I do not feel that it is big enough to risk splitting it from the get-go by having two separate guilds launch simultaneously. It would be...

    Does the Gmaing World have the chutpah to stop this?

    Begone foul heretic! Seriously though, I for one see absolutely no appeal in being thrown into games with every random idiot on the internet. Dedicated servers provide a place to play with a consistent group or type of players, and allow you to police the environment in ways that matchmade...
