I'm pretty sure that Bioware is going to give us pretty much the best trilogy ending ever, along with awesome new characters.

I think we all can. Incidentally, Shadow Hearts was supposed to be pretty good. I have it, but I never got a chance to play it.

What have they done to LBP?  ; I noticed the sackboy had an animated skin, though, which is interesting. |

As one who has enjoyed Flow and Flower, I've been looking forward to this, too. I just rely on you for updates. :` When is it scheduled for release, if at all?

Seanster and I were able to get a game of minecraft up, which I have to say went rather swimmingly. I'd like the rest of you to join us, so here are the instructions: *Get my l337 h4x3d minecraft installer*Install with all the options except the HD textures *After installing, look in the start menu ==> all programs for the minecraft folder *locate "change playername" and change it to what you want your name to be. Also, enjoy some annoying music! *turn on Hamachi*start minecraft ("play minecraft") *DO NOT ENTER USER NAME AND PASSWORD, and click login *go ahead and stay in offline mode when prompted *look on Hamachi, and copy "executor"'s IP address. This is the server *go to multiplayer, enter that IP address *enjoy! Make sure to read the minecraft wiki before you start. The world is persistent, so be nice! |

I've been interested in Magika, and while I was a bit skeptical at first, it seems like it offers what it promises. Essentially, it's gauntlet type game where you play as a wizard who has access to a variety of spells. The kicker is that these spells can be combined to create new spells, and people seem to back up the large amount of combinations. Gametrailers has a pretty concise review of it: www.gametrailers.com/video/review-pod-magicka/710137 |

Well I finally did it, after ten years, I've beat Icewind Dale.  I didn't do so bad at the boss battle. I mean, sure, one guy died and I had to resurrect him, even after I had to lower the difficulty down to the easiest after numerous failed attempts at even landing a hit at the bad guy. In short, I hate DnD, even in video game form. But aside from being hard, which is forgivable being that it is a 2nd Edition Dungeons and Dragons game, the game has a lot of appeal to me. Most importantly, you can completely customize your party of up to six adventurers, including biographies, portraits, attire colors, and voices. I had a Paladin in the lead, a fighter, a ranger, a fighter/thief , a mage and a cleric. Another is the gameplay, being that it is made by Black Isle, makers of the original Fall Out games, on an engine first created by Bioware, makers of the first successful CRPG to use DnD rules; Baldur's Gate, now considered to be one of the best CRPG's ever made, and possibly my personal favorite RPG. You're in control of everything, you can pause the action, direct your adventurers, unpause and watch everything unfold. All the DnD calculations, Roll To Hit, Roll for Damage, Saving Throws, are done by the computer in the background. In Baldur's Gate, you could only make one character, the player character. Later on, other characters would join your party and you would be able to control them. Because that's the way Bioware went, characters would interact with full on voice recordings. Here, because the characters are custom made, you have to make up everything on your own, which obviously, is good or bad depending on your outlook. I used this to my advantage, knowing that Icewind Dale II takes places 30 years after the original, and decided that this party of adventurers in ID would somehow be ancestors to the party I create in ID2. Furthermore, since I already knew of the locations I would visit about 90% into the game, I decided that my characters would have some sort of connection. For example, my dwarven Fighter/Thief, Orthorin, had lost his way home, the once powerful Dwarven kingdom of Lower Dorn's Deep, a location actually visited in the game, so he joined the traveling party in the hopes that one day he would find his way back. Which he does. It's all just a good exercise in storytelling. Now, I've got to beat the expansion, Heart of Winter, with a new party (my choice), before I move on to Icewind Dale II. |
