Dasaria II - A NWN2 Roleplay and Story-driven Persistent World

I disagree that grades in middle school mean nothing. Yes eventaully they mean nothing to the outside world... you will have other achievements that trump them. But The grades will always mean something to you. It will feel incredibly good looking back at what you achieved, and it is about proving ...

The Fountain.

You have to see it.

Take a girlfriend.

I am also a technical editor for McAfee and part-owner of a set of Virtual World Tesla cockpits running Battletech and Red Planet.

My god. Get me one of those with Freespace 2 and I'd be the happiest kid on the planet.

Just re-watched The World is Not Enough. God. Seeing it after Casino Royale really puts how bad the series got into perspective. That's not even mentioning Die Another Day.

I'm off to see The Fountain sometime soon. It stars Hugh Jackman, and he has a crossbow. That's all you need to know.

I'd love to see your list. Might give me some ideas for old classics to go back to again.

And yeah, I couldn't finish NFSU 2 either, let alone Most Wanted. Very very repetitive.

After going through the list of games that I own I count 108 that I've finished. I think there may be a couple more here and there that aren't on the list due to being lost, so let's round it off at a nice clean 110

Does finishing Deus Ex over ten times count?

Been listening to the soundtrack to the anime Wolf's Rain, composed by Yoko Kanno, who is probably most recognised for Cowboy Bebop's music.

Eragon. I think you guys should all go see it, you'd pick up some great tips for fantasy writing.

I realy wish they could get fogging looking better. Nothing worse than having a giant wall of blue as your scenery...

The reason we love the lone hero with super-powers is because the media you listed is more often than not an escape from reality.

The same goes for comic books, only it's far more obvious. People, especially kids, want to see things that would usually only be in their imagination.

Once you grow ...

Ghost in the Shell aint that great, and youll be stretching to make any connections to Deus Ex. The series, Stand Alone Complex, is much better in my opinion.

If you liked Thief you will love this game.

So wrong! The stealth system is nowhere near as good, and never does Thief force you into fighting hordes of enemies. Dark Messiah is a glossy first-person hack'n'slash through and through.

Here's a trailer for Wolf's Rain;

the anime I'm currently absorbed in.

Music by Yoko Kanno, the genius behind the Bebop soundtrack.

I don't know about you, but I'm not willing to pay thousands of dollars to go from this to this.

Better technology gives more freedom to the developers.
This is only half true. Better technology can give more freedom to developers, however the actual quantity of developers will seriously diminish. As you adequately put it, "This will most likely make it very hard for niche titles to be ...
