If I hadn't kinda turned on Blizzard I might have gotten it, but after I had my falling out with watching pro SC2 I pretty much lost any interest in the follow up, as I'm already familiar with the aspects that captured my attention other than the cut scenes (which I'm no longer interested in...

Too true, too true. Orzammar is the reason I've only put 243 hours into DA:O instead of something like 600.

Wow, who saw Buzz Aldrin attaching his name to a space race game. Again, twenty years later [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buzz_Aldrin%27s_Race_into_Space].

Consensus, interesting outliers. The two (iirc) 100 of 100 reviews on MetaCritic for M&B: Warband got my attention and I was quite happy I jumped on it.

This is fantastic news; I'd almost click to watch Sideshow Bob 'review' it just for the laughs.

Taking an absurdly myopic view of the events, perhaps. Mismanaging the situation the way he did leading up to it? Of course not. Firing the employees you've completely disenfranchised is the no brainer last step of a terrible management system.

It's been stated once, the BattleTech universe has always captured my imagination the most; humanity's successful colonization and industrialization of the galaxy, its fall from grace and the political lines drawn in the stars.

My time leading raids in Everquest in 1999~2001. Organizing 100 people with nothing but notepad, no raid tools or even raids, just organized groups using shout and ooc in the beginning. Never mind instructional videos for the mobs.

I just redid my system, as per my Nov 2007 policy I got the best CPU I could without getting an Extreme one, this time an i7 3770K for a little over a hundred more than you're getting your i5 3570K. I don't think there's a noticeable difference, but I was very happy having that top end Quad CPU...

Sadly I must vote what I'm required by wife to do and not what I would do. I was raised with no Santa but my wife loves every holiday, so we're doing up every holiday. Bleh.

I thought this was going to be about the beautiful green screen backgrounds. Those really were impressive, crap for immersion to have people walking around on massive paintings, but really pretty. Emotional impact? A completely subjective metric. I can certainly see how various scenes could...

I shudder to think about our typingless future where people are better with virtual keys they need to see to type :/ I could do 80 wpm when I was 6 years old, I learned to type and I never have to look at the keyboard to orient my hands. Obviously in haste I'll line up incorrectly once a week...

Basically everything from MicroProse. Even Sid Meier's most disappointing title, Covert Action, is still enjoyable to me. Colonization was such an interesting twist on Civ.. Master of Magic which was mentioned earlier is still my favorite 4x game of all time, so much depth.. someone mentioned...

I believed it was, up until I damaged my relationship with my wife by waiting until we were married. Completely idiotic to put an artificial barrier between you and the person you're going to spend the rest of your life with. She wasn't resentful or angry or anything, our relationship was...

Sadly I have no gaming budget at the moment, fortunately I'm a PC gamer. And no, no I don't pirate anything.
