    PC, Xbox 360 or PS3?

    Oh ho! I wasn't aware of that... time to break it out of the old game box and dig it out. :)

    PC, Xbox 360 or PS3?

    Definitely a fun ride there! My only ding for that one was that it was a bit short, and I wish they would have continued to ramp up the Agent's powers - I always thought that The Incredible Hulk - Ultimate Destruction set the bar for having superhumans in games, and I wish they'd done more...

    PC, Xbox 360 or PS3?

    Well, I fall into the hardcore gaming category, as I have all of toys you list - including a Alienware gaming PC. By far I spend much more time on the Xbox 360 these days. My Wii is fun for my step-daughter and for party games, but not much else that holds my interest. The PS3 sure does a...

    XBox 360 Elite

    Well hey, I didn't have to wait a year! Microsoft caved after 6 months and eliminated the Core. ;)

    Does D&D Need to Appeal to the Mainstream?

    If you think that the bottom line (i.e. losing revenue on evergreen products that are no longer selling enough to sustain their margin), doesn't have anything to do with 4E, then you are kidding yourself.

    GEN CON any news on DDm figures?

    I think they cancelled this due to the impending release of the 4th edition miniatures (which aren't compatible with 3.x). :p

    Mystery of levitation 'solved'

    Nor was there evidence of gravity prior to Newton, correct? Our experience with reality is bounded by our current perceptions of reality. We can only attempt to prove what we know - we can't prove what we do not yet know. Heck, we still can't explain gravity. "As yet" was also revelant to...

    Ryan Dancey on Redefining the Hobby (Updated: time elements in a storytelling game)

    That's a local experience though. I've purchased the entire Conan line from my local store as well as multiple copies of the Conan core and pocket books for my players. So from my experience, Mongoose is easily the #1 RPG retail producer. The point being that Matthew is in a much better...

    Ryan Dancey on Redefining the Hobby (Updated: time elements in a storytelling game)

    As an aside, I am glad to hear Mongoose is doing well... as long as you proofread Conan 2nd edtion that is... ;) Is anyone else intrigued by the timing of these blogs by Ryan? I find that on the eve of GenCon 40, with the "mysterious" WotC announcement, rumors of 4E, and the general feeling...

    Mystery of levitation 'solved'

    Actually, only on the Classic (i.e.Einsteinian) side of things. Quantum physics certainly allows for this kind of effect, as the forces at that level are barely understood even today.

    Possibly moving to Columbus, OH

    By far the most important thing you need to know is that if a total stranger (or group of strangers) walks up to you and says "O" "H", you *must* respond "I" "O" or face ridicule or death!!! :) I'd avoid the campus area and Short North. Look in the Grandview and Clintonville areas. The...

    Meetup.com

    My experience was.. slightly less than ok. I actually took over as organizer of a local D&D Meetup. I was in a phase where I wanted to expand the game to others, and thought that by joining up with this group, we'd be able to spread the hobby to new people, raise some enthusiasm in the area...

    I Need a Ride to Gen Con

    I can't help with the ride, but most hotels will allow others in your room to check-in without you being there. Just call the hotel and explain the situation - they'll typically ask you to fax them copies of identification and the like, but that will no longer be an obstacle for you. Best of luck!

    How Did You Start Playing?

    None of the above. My oldest sister bought me the blue boxed set for my 12th birthday.

    Yes, you have to!

    Vin Diesel. Then afterwards we could play The Chronicles of Riddick on the Xbox.

    (Poll, please read 1st post) What does the DM have the right to restrict?

    It's the DM's game. I expect my players to respect that when I am behind the screen, and I certainly respect that when sitting on the other side.

    Free RPG Week at Green Ronin!

    I just saw that Green Ronin has extended their Free RPG Day to the entire week due to high demand (and subsequent server outages) for their giveaways. Three cheers for Green Ronin! :)
