The Gaming Den

I'm holding out for the Hobbit, which will be announced any minute now.

Any

now

Koumei, sit down son.

That humping motion your dog makes? That does not mean he's using your polar bear toy as a pillow.

Spore won't come out. In a few months time someone will reveal it was all a hoax and I will laugh and laugh and laugh.

Didn't read the book but the trailer looked pretty cool aside from a pretty heavy emphasis on polar bears.

Chutes & Ladders d20

That would indeed be cool.

But didn't asheron's call have something like that? Where if you discovered a rare recipe or whatever, it would be less powerful the more people had it?

Hey man, they totally needed me to rescue those wounded soldiers! They would have died if it wasn't for me!

Did anyone play up to the twist yet? I did not see (most of) that coming.

Spoilers which are pretty huge

I didn't think Atlas would be the bad guy, I did guess you were ryan's son, and I most certainly did not guess the mind control thing.That was awesome

Every video game publisher is pure play by definition though.

Unless they make games that are literally unplayable.

What does "PURE-PLAY VIDEO GAME PUBLISHER" even mean?

Let's not make this thread any more about me or Crissa than it already is. She can make one good burn back and then it's back to talking about Bioshock

Just chiming in to say I'm a huge fan of condition tracks and favor them over HP.

Crissa if you were serious about your 'Games Design Analyst' post you should just go ahead and take a gun to the roof of your mouth right now because there is no way you will climb out of the pit of patheticness you have dug for yourself in this lifetime. [br][br]And portal was cool, except the whol...

But having more choices increases the chance that you'll be able to find more synergies. The correlation isn't always true, but generally "more choices" does = "more power" and it's far from a fallacy. [br][br]It also increases the chance you'll get 2 feats that don't synergize ...

Actually it's not, because you still get the same number of feats to choose, regardless how big the pool you can choose from is.

Ah, the old more choices = more power fallacy.

This is the exact opposite of what they should be doing.

Also, wizards just getting blaster spells and illusion is hilarious. Guess what every wizard ever is going to be?

1196590287[/unixtime]]Personally, I prefer good animation , character design, and game design (not in that order) over sharp graphics.[br][br]But that's kinda why I end up playing more Asian games than American/english speaking world ones.[br][br]Bioshock and Portal were supposed to be 'groundbreak...

NINJA PIRATE ZOMBIE ROBOT I LIKE PIE OLOLOLOL AREN'T I WACKY? LOOK AT ME I'M SO WACKYYYYYY

You should watch all the other ones too. They're great, because that guy is just as much of a grumpy bastard as most of us are.

And another thread about to be derailed by Da Count's loneliness...

As for the race, orcs get a +2 to hit with all weapons, and a +2 damage to boot.

Nerd without a life whines about people who do gettin' him down [br][br]Choice quotes of the thread: [br][br]"Today will be our 5th raiding day, in the third week , about 4-5 hours a day and we haven't even seen phase 3 yet."[br][br]And, even better:[br][br]"It's very selfish joining...

Eh, it was okay. Not as good as system shock 2 though.
