That video is win, I salute you.: peace: Can any race talk to the sign, or is it just those crazy Malkavians. I have the patchs and fanpatchs installed, there are still bugs I really really really really want to play Arcanum, REALLY. But I can't really find it, I even tried to pirate it, but it wouldn't run, crashed after loading iirc. Perhaps when I get a credit card/other online form of payment I'll pick it up off of amazon. Well, I now must rate EDF 2017(there is an every so slightly different PAL name that I can't remember atm). By all accounts, this game should be horrible. Every thing about it is just bad and if any other game had similar design choices, it would be critically panned. EDF on the other hand all these bad choice mold together to make one of the funnest games I've ever played. Co-Op probably triples the fun. 9/10, it's so bad but the fun just outweighs everything else. Quick sidenote, it has less game bugs than VtMB.

You outta install the mod to allow you to goto level 30 or 40(your choice.) And possibly the mod allowing skill points to go beyond 100, since if you max every skill at 100 you can't get past the level screen if there are points to distribute.

I suggest staying away from twilight unless your a tween girl. I've heard nothing good. I tried to read Brisingr, but I just couldn't. I got about a chapter or two in, but my attempt was half-hearted. I'll try again at some other point.

As a general rule, any PC monitor is better than any HDTV. It's not really set in stone as there are great HDTVs and there are shit Monitors.

It's fine, like a shooter, not quite as refined as a true shooter. It works well though, since you can't always use Vats. Try Vats though, you may find you like it.

Doing now, but it'll take a while. I have now epicly bumped it, and there are already 2 other new posts

Perfectly understandable, just check you tires occasionally .

Nope, not at all. I feel 2008 did just as well as 2007. Perhaps it's coming off of 2007 that makes 2008 harder to appreciate(hey that rhymes). For example, compare the Monsters Inc to Over the Hedge. Dreamworks is proud of their fur in OtH, but Pixar did it better (imo, but a smaller scale...) years before with MI, which just makes what OtH does seem less impressive. Mind you, I've only watched those with a high quality upscaler at 720p.

I kinda want to bump it, but I'm afraid to make a necro bump.

Vampire the Masquerades: Bloodlines The first 3rd party game to be released using the Source Engine. It was released the same day as Half-Life 2 incidentally. It was developed by Troika Games, a studio made up of former employees of Black Isle Studios which happens to have made some of my favorite RPGs(Fallout being at the top. They also worked on Baldurs gate). They main problem of the game was the fact that there are so very many bugs, some just annoying other potentially game breaking. I had one where a door that should unlock didn't, luckily I was able to use noclip. This unfortunately is a common trait of their games. They games are great but essentially unfinished. The graphics are no Half-Life 2, but they aren't horrible even today they just aren't good. The gameplay is 1st or 3rd person, all shooting is 1st, while melee combat is in 3rd. You can explore the world in either though. Everything is voice acted and you have a different answers you can select similar to Fallout 3 or Oblivion. In the end though, it is an RPG so you have skills for everything you do. Your accuracy (and I think damage) is tied to how many skills you have in firearms. You can take seduction and persuasion and intimidation, any of those can be used to get your own way with out going through extra steps. You cannot be an everyman though, you will specialize. There aren't enough skill points to go around. Which brings a final point, you don't level in the traditional sense. As you complete objectives you gain maybe a point or two, which you save for later(skills end up costing ALOT) or use right away in conjunction with any others you may already have. Killing enemies, unless a certain objective, will gain you nothing so a killing spree on the streets is out of the question, let alone the fact that you'll piss off other vampires as well. The atmosphere is fantastic as well, and the story is a variable, there are different endings to be achieved, or the same ending but with different choices(like Tourette :p). 8/10 If the bugs were gone it'd be a 9 or 10.

Dude, your parked on the sidewalk...... Even if that's acceptable you should know it's not good for your tire pressure, which is turn is not good for mileage.

Smoking Aces I've seen it before, but I just caught the end of it on satellite. Fantastic movie, good action, a decent story, good set pieces and effects. Even though I've seen it like 3-4 times I still don't fully understand the story, but I like what I do understand. 9/10 Quick idea here, what does everyone think about a "Rate the last book you read." thread, it'd go good with the Film and TVshow threads that are already in effect.

About the truest thing you've said so far.

If you kill absolutly everything possible in the vault you can emerge at a lowly level 3 instead of 2.

Datsun Cherry

booo! fords

The silver one, the white one is my moms, and the brakes are out.

looking good, happy about the spring 09 tenative date.

We outta have an official Anna Faris is hot thread...

I'd guess, but I can't win. I will say this though, color really isn't a helpful clue but you know that already. quick question, how specific of an answer do you want, Make Model just Make?

Got something against whitey?! :P

It was bleeding with atmosphere. Speaking of atmosphere, Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines does that pretty well too at times.

Dear lord, if that fiesta is anything like a festiva stick with the focus. I may post mine later, right now it's dark out, and about 15 degrees (farenheit, below 0c) plus I'm afraid you'll all make fun of my gas guzzler(10mph mostly due to a transmission missing 2nd and 4th gear).
