well, complete hacks are often harder than the original game. Plus, there's a lot of SMW hacks out there, so it'd be easy to blow 2 hours on a couple of em.

Perhaps it's better to let it stand at episodes 1-6. Sometimes when things get drawn out, they get boring and become mere shadows of their former selves.

I'll probably see episode 3 when it comes out on DVD. Dad's a big Star Wars fan, so he'll probably buy it.

... I never got to see Episode 2, though. I was sick when Dad went to the theater to see it.

Those NPC fuckers steal from me and it'll be the last thing they do, aside from getting hacked to bits with a daikatana.

What? I'm a violent person in videogames, ok? *ponders the new use of the Lock spell*

I'm looking forward to this game. And those who know me personally know that I NEVER look forward to any game. Wonder if they'll make mages better...

My comment was not about the current movies. But if you try to draw a story out too long, you run out of ideas. It hasn't happened yet, but it could in the future.

Or maybe I'm just filling in for Beo as the board pessimist. =/

Doom. It's the only one I still play. Dad got it for himself, but he couldn't figure out how to install it. He assumed it wouldn't work on their computer, so I put it on mine. I suck at it, though.

ugh. Shadows of the Empire sucked.

7260. The number of views Xeogaming has while I write this post. Also the number of times the shitty controls made me fall off a cliff.

Rogue Squadron, on the other hand... that was a good game. Hard as hell sometimes, but good.

I think it's kinda funny that it took three police officers to do that. I mean, seriously, what's that say for our police?

three years? Dude, you have no understanding of the console market. They wait three years, then they'll get their asses kicked by Nintendo and Microsoft.

I honestly think that next fall is fine. The PS2 was released in North America (according to GameFAQs) on the 26th of October, 2000. The PlayStation was released in North America, according to the same source, on the 9th of September, 1995. Five years between them. What year is this? Oh, right. 2005. Since fall of NEXT YEAR is in 2006, that means there's even more time between the PS3 and the PS2 compared to the PS1/PS2 gap. I think six years is plenty of time, honestly.

*pulls up some Nintendo comparisons*

SNES: Sometime in 1991 (GameFAQs doesn't have SNES release dates for North America, nor does it have an exact release date for SMW)
N64: 29th of September, 1996
Gamecube: 18th of November, 2001

As you can see, it's quite normal to have 5-6 years between consoles. And, considering that with only five years between systems, Nintendo released the Gamecube without many problems, and that's with a switch in software formats. I'm sure Sony can do the same in six years.

April? My grandfather once told me that he saw in snow in July. Of course, he lived in Montana at the time, so I suppose that's to be expected.

Doesn't surprise me, though, that you would see snow in April. Spring weather can be fucked up sometimes...

10: "Hey, haven't seen you before. What's your name?"

9: "Huh? 9 AM? Shit, I slept in!"

8: "No, no, you're right, I made a mistake."

7: "Well, this guy seems honest. I'll vote for him."

6: "I'm hungry."

5: "What a mess. I better clean this up."

4: "What? An NES? Why would you buy me an NES?"

3: "Yay! An optical mouse!"

2: "A party? Sure, I'll go."

1: "So, how about dinner Friday night?"

Explanations for less-clear ones:
10: I'd be inside playing Morrowind or something. Highly averse to meeting new people.
9: I go back to sleep if I wake up at 9 AM.
7: First, I'm not old enough to vote. Second, I don't think any honest politician has ever existed.
3: Oh, I might say this. Laced with heavy sarcasm, that is. It's been my experience that optical mice suck.
1: BAHAHAHAHAH! WIth my luck with girls?

Okay, I won't make fun of your name again. At least today.

Why do you even have to get rid of any of them? Is there a limit to the number of rank sets you can have? Does having more than five cause the board to spontaneously combust?

I voted for all three, but I don't think my last two votes were counted toward the total.

Some translations are so bad they're hilarious. This sucks when the game's trying to be serious, though...

Glitchfest! Yay! =/ There are games that no matter how much I love them, they are unfortunately horrendously buggy. Morrowind's False Floors come to mind... falling, falling, falling forever...

Framerate problems. I'm sorry, but lightsaber battles aren't very entertaining when you can see the skipping frames. Force Lightning isn't as impressive when it's all choppy and shit. KotOR 2 had problems here, if you couldn't guess...

So, while neither of those have ANYTHING to do with the translation, they're complaints I have. Here's another...


Wait, but that said you said... - I usually have subtitles on in cutscenes, even when the dialogue is in English. And when the dialogue is in English, the subtitles sometimes say something COMPLETELY different from what is being spoken. This can be a translation thing, but wasn't KotOR 2 first released in English..?

Posted on 04-27-05 11:16 AM, in Where's that level from, anyway? Link
Alright, here's the problem I'm having lately. I've been getting an image of a level in a Star Wars game in my head for a while. Sometimes in dreams, sometimes it just pops up during the day.

But it's not in any game I've played, as far as I know. I'll do what I can to describe it here, but all I know is bits and pieces.

You're flying an X-Wing down a canyon. At the bottom of the canyon is deep water, and the whole level appears to be a naval installation of some sort. There are numerous laser turrets firing at you, as well as a few TIE/ds (the TIEs in The Battle of Calamari in Rogue Squadron).

That's all I got. Anyone know where it's from, if it's in any game?

Well, I know it's not in Rogue Squadron. Beat that game, I did. Had a lot of Gold Medals, too.The only water level was the Battle of Calamari, and that one didn't have many - if any - canyons, nor did it have laser turrets that I can remember, save for the ones mounted on the World Destroyers.

Edit: Thinking about it, it's not Search for the Nonnah either; that level has no laser turrets at all.

Posted on 04-27-05 06:16 PM, in Where is your alignment? (KOTORs) Link
Depends. When I'm forcing my decisions or when I play as I am? Being myself, I end up pretty close to Light Mastery; there were few Dark responses that sounded like something I'd say. A Light Sentinel/Watchman was the first character I beat the game with, in fact.

Now, if my own options were in the game, I'd probably be Neutral... I can be deceptive, I can be an asshole, but overall I'm not that bad. So while I'd say a few (maybe even a lot of) mean things, I might do some things most peoples' consciences would not allow, I have the greater good in mind. 'The means of the Dark for the ends of the Light' is the phrase I once used for that...

I wound up voting "Sorta Light" because as it stands, my own options are NOT in the game usually. And I'm not one to make a lot of threats, which kills my Dark rating. =/
