    Hiroshima

    Heya: "How does Japan currently feel about this event?" I dunno, but if you look at Japanese anime, it seems like a _ton_ of it involves, "A {meteor|explosion|dimensional rift|crashed spaceship} destroyed the city 40 years ago and...". You know? Take care, Dreeble

    [World of Warcraft] Anyone else playing the open beta?

    Heya: Teflon Billy is the name of one of Brian Van Hoose's characters in the Knights of the Dinner Table comic. Dreeble

    Where is our own John Rodgers?

    Heya: Global Frequency? Wow, that comic can get pretty intense. I pick it up because Warren Ellis can do no wrong, but it can be a bit bloody/gory at times. I'll definitely look for this show. Who is going to be playing Miranda Zero? Aleph would be a good part for Laura Petty (hope I got...

    City of Heroes

    Heya: Something quick about the game: Super Jump is my absolute favorite power. This is what it's like being the Hulk. Well, maybe not 2 mile jumps, but certainly 2 football field jumps (with a height of, say, 5 stories?). Totally love it as a travel power. Great for escaping, too. I have...

    City of Heroes

    Heya: I got the game Tuesday but couldn't play that night since it wasn't officially starting until Wednesday at noon. Not a huge deal. Wednesday night activating my account was a snap. I was actually surprised, thinking the registration server (or whatever) would be congested. Note: I did...

    The Talon of the Silver Hawk

    Heya: What is the name of the sequel to Talon? I'm pretty sure I haven't read it. Thanks, Dreeble

    Cerebus has ended earlier this month

    Heya: I'm one of the fans who missed his "earlier, funnier work." I loved Cerebus, High Society, Church & State, Women, and such. Then, eh. I'm far too shallow to enjoy the later stuff. Take care, Dreeble

    The Future of Star Trek (revealed)...

    Heya: I like the idea of adding William Shatner's head to a younger actor's body with a few restrictions: 1) Like the rumor states: for 20 minutes only since it would be too expensive because of 2) Dynamically digitally make Shatner's face age-appropriate to the younger actor. We've all seen...

    How to keep track of voices?

    Heya: This thread seems to be a good spot to ask a question that's been bugging me a bit. A while back PirateCat posted a WAV file (or whatever) of him voicing some ghoul NPC. Very cool. My question for people who have heard him speak: Was he exaggerating the NON-ghoul part for comedic...

    No more "fluff"!!! [A rant and a request]

    Heya: I'm offended by the use of the word "beef" as a replacement for "problem" or something similar. Beef is not a problem! It's good and delicious. ;) Take care, Dreeble

    Half Ogre Sources?

    Heya: Just from the brief description in your post it sounds like you might be running a somewhat unusual game. Your PCs never encounter a large creature indoors, which is a bit odd. How do I know this? Because if a large PC can't fit indoors, then a large NPC can't either. I dunno, I...

    Bulletproof Monk?

    Heya: I enjoyed it, too. My only complaint was that it was amazingly jarring how they sometimes switched (mostly early in the movie) from normal film to Amazingly Craptacular Film(tm). The graininess/faded nature of some of the flashback temple scenes was weird. Take care, Dreeble

    Blasphemy!! - Champions of Norrath (or I Finally Snapped...)

    Heya: I got Fallout:Brotherhood of Steel for the XBox which uses the same engine. The perspective is _extremely_ overhead, annoyingly so, especially for a game in which firearms play such a big part. There are skills to increase weapon range 3 meters per rank. With 5 ranks, it's pretty...

    Temple of Elemental Evil Expansion/Sequel?

    Heya: There's a D&D game set in the Forgotten Realms coming out some time. Another thread here (or possibly NKL?) points to it. It's by the same people that did The Two Towers game, so it'll be console-based. I skimmed over an article on it in a game magazine and it looks like you'll have...

    Protection from Evil curiosity

    Heya: Actually it sounds more like he _decided_ to start using this variant rule (Magic and Psionics Don't Mix) at that specific point. That's not particularly cool, in my opinion. Also not cool completely cool is deciding that, hey, that Aboleth, yeah, it's going to be neutral, not evil...

    Hero......what's the deal?

    Heya: Is this the same thing as "Zu Warriors"? If so, cool and I hope they release it eventually. I remember seeing the trailers for it (last year) and it looked like an extremely fun movie. Take care, Dreeble

    Pictoral ST:Nemesis MST3K

    Heya: Was Nemesis an even-numbered ST movie or an odd-numbered ST movie? Take care, Dreeble

    Final Fantasy 12 info

    Heya: Those little ball things that sprout from the heads of Moogles, are they part of them, like weird antennae or something, or what? I'm playing FFTA on my GameBoy Player and it's very fun. I finally got the weapon that teaches the dualwielding skill and it's extremely happymaking. Take...

    [Jan] What are you playing?

    Heya: Just finished playing Fire Emblem. It's a GBA game, but I played it on the GameCube since the controller is way too itsy bitsy. Just started Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, also for the GBA. And I _just_ noticed there's no Select button on the GameCube controller. That's highly...

    Defining "fanboy"

    Heya: I like Fanboy Definition #1. It really fits my experiences back when I was playing Everquest. The Everquest Fanboys (or, alternatively, the Verant Fanboys) felt there were absolutely no problems with the game, that's not a bug, it's INTENDED!, and so on. The AntiEQ Fanboys like felt...
