  1. I'll pick up starship troopers this friday, Any other amazing books? I've read all of Orson Scott Card's stuff... Hah, I read Ender's Game in a day my first time, its that effin' awesome. What about Dune? I read the original, and 2 of the 3 prelude books... sadly I never finished House Corrino because at the time, they were only selling it as a hard cover, and I couldn't afford it back then... Has anyone read the last book?
  2. My uncles side of the family (All hardcore Italians) make some of the best food I have ever eaten. If I asked them for some sort of cookbook and posted it on here, I would garantee some tremendous weight gain in everyone. And your sandwich sounds splendid Mr. Zircon, I will remember that when I'm fumbling through my kitchen with no real goal except to eat.
  3. Could someone update me on Warriors? I havn't played in probably... 3 or 4 months... I remember reading forums of Warriors and Hunters getting shafted.
  4. Only played the weekend beta event way back. Started a guild and made the Top 50, but we couldn't contend with the people makin' dummy guilds and raising rank by cheating, sucks Was tons of fun when I played it. I remember one of my guildmembers wrote a story about one of our battles and submitted it the Official Guild Wars website (She was a college student) and got the exclusive beta and alpha membership. Pretty neat (Especially because I was in the story) When I played, I made a reckless E/M and my favorite thing to do was to Phoenix strike/Inferno point blank on the enemy casters, usually worked until we had to fight the elitest super guilds. The landscapes and models in the game were insanely beautiful, I had hundreds of screenshots of just memories and wonderful eye candy. The PVP I felt was more in-depth than WoW since the same ol' strategies never worked and it would keep evolving, requiring you to actually plan what your gonna do, what skills would complement each other best and having a good team. Don't get me wrong, I love Arathi Basin and Alterec Valley, but Guild Wars just had so much more to the pvp. Other than that, I know nothing of todays standards, economy, and gameplay.
  5. The return of Noppz followed by such an amazing remix? I'd shake your hand if we wern't bound my electronics in this situation. Rock on man
  6. I don't see myself getting any consoles soon... schooling just doesn't make time for this stuff, No money to buy it, and then no time to play it because of studies... I've been a supporter of all consoles and brands, but I just might have to settle for a Wii next year. Its either Halo 3, MGS4, or Twilight Princess for me.
  7. Okay, so my uncle and his friend are one of the few people who actually bought a ps3 and kept it and friday night, I gave it a go. He owns a 50"+ HD TV, all that good stuff, surround, but no HDMI cables, just your basic cables from a PS2. First game I tried was Ridge Racer 7, which was very nice, although not as polished as I hoped it would be, but its a launch game, so no surprise. The enviroments and landscape are beautiful, the best I have ever seen in a racing game. You can actually drive with one hand using the motion-sensing in the controller itself, which I may add, is very responsive, not to mention its the lightest wireless controller I have ever used. Another nice feature was the ability to turn the system off from the controller itself. I played Motorstorm next and screenshots do not do this game justice. Everything looks fantastic, not to mention the physics and detail, with no slowdown at all. I boosted over a jump and exploded in midair and watched as my body flailed around in panic and then get run over by another player taking a turn. I'm not a big fan of racers, but I had alot of fun with this game. Last game I played was Resistance, which plays alot like Halo, and is a VERY fun game. We played co-op and moving through the battlefield got very hectic, and was a blast. The AI in this game was difficult as enemies covered each other and took shots sparingly, making it harder to pick them off. A few of the guns I tried, the assault rifle, the alien-version of the assault rifle, and the shotgun were all very nice, and the in-game cutscenes were even better. There was also a part where you could control a massive tank (Much like the scorpion from Halo) and ride through a destroyed city blasting down alien fortifications. Out of all the PS3 games to get right now, this one should be at the top of your list. After that, I messed around with the PS3-menu, which borrows much from the PSP. I browsed the internet and tried to look at some of my favorites flashes on newgrounds, but Sony has been lazy and I couldn't download flashplayer So I proceeded to youtube and sampled the video "OVER 9,000?" on an HD TV, pretty crazy. For those wondering about the blu-ray quality, I did watch blu-ray version of Talladega Nights. The quality was excellent as expected, but ya know, I couldn't tell the difference between an HD-DVD movie and this. And you can BARELY hear the console, I didn't even know it was on, thats how quiet it was. Also, all launches were not entirely that bad, the two PS3's that my uncle and his friend had, they had no hassle going in and picking up, as the store was only handling people with preorder slips, which meant no lines. All in all, Its a very nice console, but I don't see myself dropping 600$ on it, That is simply too much, atleast for myself.
  8. That haunter pic is badass, best of luck to this project even though I just discovered it NOW... hah. I mean come on, everybody loves pokemon.
  9. Keyboard and mouse... I play console fps's to get away from that. There is a certain thrill in using a controller. Not to mention if your in a room full of your friends playing something like Goldeneye or Halo, I wouldn't be surprised if the guy next to you stole your keyboard and beat you over the head with it.
  10. Since alot of Nintendo Zealots patrol around here, I got a question.. Is the Wii gonna be compatible with any of the nintendo's handhelds or upcoming ones? I was thinking of buying a wii to go with my PS3, but I havn't heard much on Nintendo's upcoming handheld market besides these miniature gameboy's and ds's.

  12. I stopped playing an honorable way when a hunter would not stop bothering me when I was lev. 28 on my warrior (This was before I had intercept). I had to do a quest in the Wetlands for the warrior-only quests, and he kept going after me, and I kept fending him off and killing him, got me 8 honorable kills. His answer to me trying to do a quest? Him getting on his 60 gnome mage and camping my corpse for over TWO HOURS. I checked periodically and he was sitting there everytime, waiting for me to respawn at the GY in the middle of the Wetlands. That wasn't a fun day.
  13. Watch out for those people who pretend to be "afk" in the wilderness.
  14. I finally gave in and made a rogue twink for the 20-29 bracket because I love AB so much more over WSG and I'm having too much fun. My cousin did the same, making a lv. 29 rogue, it sorta reminds me of the splinter cell co-op... except not as tactical... hah. Anyone else ever delved into the twinkish endeavors? We all can't stay innocent If you wanna play together sometime, I got characters on Anethron, Delvyngar, Silverhand, Vek'nilash, and a few others I can't think of at the moment.
  15. So after waiting a week, I finally got all my stuff back. And the best part was that some of it was de-soulbounded.
  16. Its great and all... internet on the tv, but ya know, I remember doing it with the dreamcast... Its nothing new... and like Evilhead said, it can be a pain in the ass to use, Even with your nifty controller.
  17. Not to mention PS3 is getting Ninja gaiden too.
  18. So has anyone else here ever gotten their account hacked/hijacked? Just wondering... It happened to me earlier this week, Lost all my items and gold... Absolutely terrible. Still waiting on the GM service, since their fax number didn't work, so I had to mail them my info (I live on the east coast, they live in Cali).
  19. Hey, havn't posted in awhile but got a question for the vets, since I can't find too much information on it... Where are good areas to mine? I have been mining in the Charred Vale and 1,000 Needles (I am Horde) for Mithril and iron, but my mining is 300 and I wanna find better ore, anyone know a good area or better area to mine?
  20. I really like this mix, When I listen to it, I just don't want it to end. It does use a good array of sounds and makes it feel unique, I just want a version that goes in a continous loop. Very nice ToP mix.
  21. Oh okay... No wonder. I was trying to do a quest that is orange/red to me...
  22. Hi... Newcomer here, I just started playing WoW (Friend trial invite, my friends were begging me to try it) and so far the game is pretty good except I'm only level 10 and getting my ass kicked... Anyone have any newbie-friendly tips and hints for a lv. 10 Undead Rogue on Andorhal?
  23. Its awesome to hear some of the older tracks again!! I managed to save a good amount of files back when this project first started, I can't wait to hear the finished project, prob be the biggest OCR project to date.
