I dip my banana in chocolate.

FFVI had the largest playable cast of any FF game and all of the characters (aside from secret/special ones) were fleshed out with great backstories. Much more so than other side characters. The story was presented in a fantastic way with multiple arcs, plus it was steampunk. Kefka is also a wonderful villain, rather than just being a cliched "I'm really powerful and thus have decided to end this world" guy he's not even the bigbad in the beginning, he's just a Psychotic Mage in the emipres army. He's hardly even powerful, and during the first part of the game, it's the empire/emperor that is considered bad. That's kinda why I liked the more political story of XII as opposed to VII-X.

My problems with X is the removal of the overworld and the linearity. Characters were also pretty annoying. I basically agree with Killer Kirby's points on FFVIII, except that I don't really remember any plotholes in general. That could just be poor memory or a true lack of plotholes.

Tires. 10char

Flippin the magnetic poles or something like that. Which.....well I'm really not sure how the assassins or templars plan on even effecting the outcome.

I've generally always started with checking RAM, making sure it's fully inserted and if need be trying to boot with each stick separately. Like Ten10 said though, more info would be helpful.

I do for all games not just Fallout. Well all gmaes that let me.

I'm guessing your dads Jeep is 4WD. That splits the power and will definitely reduce the likelihood of wheelspin. Tires and tread also matter in terms of grip, I wouldn't be surprised if the Jeep had more aggressive tires than the Fiesta.

I save about every 5-10 minutes

Engine breaking will slow the vehicle regardless of gear. A lower gear will only decelerate quicker if you were already going fairly quick, if you're on ice you shouldn't be going fast. Even if your tires have stopped you may still be moving anyways regardless of any gear. Honestly driving in as high a gear as possible is always preferred even when it's not icy. But yea, lower torque reduces wheelspin.

Lies, you don't need to be into sports to enjoy the insanity of NBA Jam. I was trying to remember what team I use to play with, but looking at the Wiki, the only name that rings a bell is Scottie Pippen.

This. Except wear earplugs because her voice is just plain annoying and she talks to you like you're 5.

I'm crying on the inside. I don't think the Na'vi are wholly CGI. I think they're greensuits sorta like Gollum, I could be wrong on that though.

Saw Avatar last night, 8/10 for visuals. The 3D is well done the CGI is near perfect, but nothing is without flaws (fast motion blurring away the 3D). Story wise....anyone who expected a good story is dumb. The story was just there to differentiate this from a tech demo. Overall I'd say 7/10, I don't particularly want to rush out to see it again. Also, Unobtanium!?!?!?!? That's as fucking dumb as Gundamnium, I didn't expect lots of creativity but jesus the best name for the hard to get mineral is unobtanium?! That is shoot yourself retarded.

You know....if this is supposed to be like a real arcade, I want HotD4 and that HL2 arcade game.

I could have sworn the Big 3 already had this is various forms. ya know, PSN, VC, XBLArcade. Seems silly to do this as opposed to just releasing them at reasonable prices on XBLA.

I'm expecting it to be played like Fallout 3, but the writing and plot and quests to be leagues beyond what Bethesda manages. If anyone here's played number 2, they outta remember Little Reno, which had lots of intertwining quests from the different families of power in the city. I wouldn't be surprised if New Vegas is like Little Reno.

You mean New Vegas? I think it was tentatively dated for 2010, but there hasn't been any information about it other than Obsidian is working on it, that's all we have to go off of.

I'm pretty sure you end the blight regardless, but you can still be a total dick and ruin other peoples lives. There are different endings, and the different quests have small epilogues that will change depending on how you handled them.

Valve only handles their Steam distribution, EA handles all of Valves retail products. About a year ago, Game Informer did a large article on the relationship between developers and publishers and how the money flows between them. I don't have the issue anymore though and certainly can't remember specifics or what issue, but they may have it online somewhere...I do remember that they spoke with companies inside the industry.

I'm not sure about the stunning(which has odd hit detection anyways) but the others you can drop a smoke bomb near a large group to have plenty of time to manage.

Beat it a few days ago as a Dwarven Casteless Warrior, great game miles beyond Kotor and ME. Started another run through as Human Female Mage, mages do ridiculous amounts of damage, I love it. I was fairly nice in my first run...excepting that time I desecrated some stuff. Now I'm going to be buy the books self righteous. Like abandoning Sten in his cage, since I hate him and his literalness

Feathers, Wear the Auditore cape, Stun 4 guards with sand, Sweep 5 guards with a long weapon, and The kill 10 enemies without being hit. I know I could get them, I just haven't got around to doing it.

Beat a few days ago, just plain fucking awesome. A complete improvement over the first without adding in new negative elements. Love the ending and where they seem to be taking the series. Got 45/50 Achievements, I suppose I'll get the other 5 eventually, I don't relish finding the feathers but they are easier than flags at least. Although I would have liked more out of the animus experiences as I liked talking to the other characters and getting their thoughts on things.
