  1. Astros vs. White Sox.  Could any sick bastard possibly come up with something worse than this piece of shit World Series?  Anyone care to come up with something more heatless, horrible, and featuring two teams that people either 1.  don't care about or 2.  flat out hate? 

     

    We all have two choices:  Root for the Astros in hope that Clemens, Biggio, Bagwell, etc. can finally get a ring and retire and then they'll suck from then on.  Or we can root for the White Sox to end their 80+ year curse and get the rings, and then suck from then on.

     

    I am getting nostalgic for the Marlins vs. Indians.

     

    Bitter much?


  2. I have to say, I'm not really a movie person. There's just something I dislike about sitting in front of a screen for a long period of time.

     

    That said, Begins kicks the living shit out of the first four films. Everything's actually believable..and I liked that there wasn't this big heel waiting at the end. The love interest bit was kept low-key, where it belongs.

     

    The only complaint I have is that there's no sequel yet.


  3. Only 4 guilds? There better be other ones, like the Imperial Cult/Houses in Morrowind. At least they've done something with the arena idea.

     

    Six guilds/factions: The Arena, Blades, Dark Brotherhood, Fighters’ Guild, Mages’ Guild, Thieves’ Guild)

     

    They've said the guild quests will be much more involved than "fetch this" this time around., so there aren't as many to join.

     

    The Oblivion facts thread on the Elder Scrolls forums. A lot of good info.


  4. I know we've got a few Morrowind fans around here, and RPG fans in general should be excited about this one.

     

    First, there's a torrent with a 20-minute DVD promo floating around. It's not too hard to find.

     

    They've fixed all the problems Morrowind had: the clunky dialogue system is replaced by a much more streamlined Fallout-ish one, the combat is much less frustrating, and the quests are easier, thanks to your new (actually helpful) journal. Did I mention that any place you hear about, you'll be able to use your map to Fast Travel? No more taking hours to get anywhere, even though the game has something like sixteen square miles of land to explore.

     

    The graphics on this thing are just amazing. I'm not even sure my PC will be able to run it..I remember how low MW's specs were supposed to be, and how much it actually took to run. I'll get both eventually, but the 360 version, first.

     

    Now, only to wait that long..


  5. well, Andrew, it's just like what we argued about before, you just HAD to know it was gonna happen somewhere, sometime...now it's just a matter of whether it actually makes a difference or not...time will tell...

     

    Well, it's not like it's being imposed in a sane state or anything, but it is still disconcerting.

     

     

     

    Isn't this the same Asshole who did Commando, Terminator 1,2,3 , Predator, even Kindergarden Cop had some violence in it. Why doesn't he sign a bill that fines Blockbuster Video and Hollywood Video as well as Best Buy that sell violent movies to kids as well. Fuck Arnold and Fuck Censorship.

     

    Because it's easier to mess with video game companies than it is movie studios?


  6. Actually, there was something saying that Blu-Ray's higher capacity discs weren't very easily manufactured..

     

    The surprise entry in Microsoft's and Intel's list of failures is disc storage capacity. On paper, Blu-ray appears to have the advantage. But the two companies looked beneath the paper: Capacity, said Ribas, "used to be the biggest advantage of Blu-ray, and we believed it. We thought, they'll get 50 GByte BD-ROM discs working, but it's not happening, and it's nowhere in sight. There are not even pilots. It's only in the lab that they are building these discs." With regard to demonstrated capacity, he told us, HD DVD-ROM actually leads BD-ROM by a score of 30 GByte to 25 GByte.

  7. The CAW had better be more advanced that SDvRaw's. Hell, the one in HCTP was better.

     

    I really hope the face models aren't one of those "never-to-be-seen-again" features in the Smackdown series much like roster editing most likely is because of those damn voiceovers.

     

    Edit: I just looked at the link for the CAW page on IGN and it looks there aren't any different face models like in SYM and HCTP, for now.

     

    There are only 7 face types, so I would think there won't be anything different-looking with the faces except for scars, etc. once again like on SVR.

     

    They desperately need roster editing back, but they'll never do it.

     

    I'm glad for the differing face models this time, because the default SvR one looked like an ape. Seriously.
