    Final Wheel of Time book to be published in three volumes

    I am a huge Brandon Sanderson fan as he's one of my new favorite authors. If you have not read Mistborn yet, what are you waiting for????? It's a fantastic read, and after reading that and the sequels, I can understand why they went with him for finishing up TWoT series. He has the same epic...

    Anyone Tried Hexes?

    Before 4e I'd want to play with hexes, as they always seemed to make more sense... but now after playing 4e with both squares and hexes, the squares are a whole lot easier to use with hexes, and the main issue was when the Wizard attempted to do all his AoE spells, the DM had a difficult time...

    D&D 4E 4E Initiative Cards

    Not super bad for a pretty generic looking initiative keeping card system... I'll give it a go this week and see how they work.

    ONG BAK II Trailer

    this looks great...hopefully it will get a differen't title as this is definately not a direct sequel. But I can see them going with the name because of Ong Bak, and it was a fairly popular movie that really showed us how much potential he will have. I hope this gets released in the US, it...

    [Trailer] Punisher: War Zone

    Jane didn't do this movie not because of a time schedule, Thomas Jane refused Punisher 2 because he felt the studio doing the movie was taking the Punisher character and not living up to who and how the Punisher is and would do things. Maybe the end movie they decided to do with war zone is a...

    The Incredible Hulk

    Just saw it, great movie, way better than I thought it would be, plus the ending is just awesome. Another great Marvel movie for the year, almost as good as Iron Man, but not quite... just misses the mark. Worth watching again.

    D&D 4E What is your favorite part of 4e?

    With all the great things about it I think my favorite aspect of 4e, beyond it being 4e and not 3.x, is the new skills system and all the new non-combat encounter related situations that can now be done and the freedom it gives players to narrate how they perform when in complex situations. The...

    [Trailer] The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

    It's easy, she's not in the movie. Had to be said, she didn't want to be in it. I don't mind either way myself.

    Hey look another Highlander movie

    I think what would be really cool is if they went into this with the true intention of doing a sequel of the immortals going for the final prize, let people know that it's an original story set over more than one movie, so when they do sequels we can actually understand why they are making more...

    Playing 4th Edition Classless?

    I was thinking of going the whole route of someday making the roles the classes and within the roles the character can pick and choose from any of those powers that belong to those classes that compose the roles... However, I don't think there are two of every role, if I am not mistaken.

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [spoilers]

    7.54 out of 10 for me... good movie, not as good as Iron Man, but good nonetheless.

    [Trailer] The Incredible Hulk

    I don't know why so many people have a hic-up on the CGI aspect of the movie... all in all the movie looks just fricken cool, seeing that tank get ripped in half was great and that fight is going to be epic... I'm excited for it, plus the tie in with Tony Stark is the real reason why I want to...

    Heroes Season 3 promo

    Part of what hurt season 2 was that writers strike, which ended the show, oh, halfway through the season... Still, I hope that Season 3 brings back the magic of Season 1.

    The Odyssey System -- Stripped-down Hot Rod d20 rules

    Take a look at Spirit of the Century and the Fate system for how Aspects work, which is pretty much the same thing as you are talking about... and how they incorporate skills into the game. Plus, it's an OGL game that doesn't use the d20 system, but I think that Aspects could be a universal...

    Excerpt: Racial Benefits

    I like this article, makes up for the confusion that is the multiclassing article. How they did racial feats and tied them into the themes of the races, way cool. Another thumbs up from an already sold fan. :)

    Forbidden Kingdom-What Do You Think?

    7.5 out of 10 for me. Good, almost great, but not quite. Not dull. Worth watching in theaters once, twice if somebody else is paying for the second ticket. ;)

    Excerpt: The Warlord

    Looks quite awesome.

    Dark Sun, 4th Edition

    I voted yes...and I don't think of it as a rehash but more as bringing an old setting in for a new generation of gamers. I bet a whole lot of gamers out there have never seen the Dark Sun setting, and I am sure a hell of a lot of them will think that it's a new campaign setting, until they are...

    News about "Wizard´s First Rule" by Sam Rami

    This is one of the better fantasy series I've read, but I enjoyed it for what it is... a dark fantasy intended for adults and not the kiddies. Not as good as Wheel of Time or A Song of Fire and Ice or Mistborn, but the series wasn't bad either.

    Doomsday (Spoilers galore)

    this movie was awesome in the 'can't take it serious way' of awesomeness... plus its the first PA movie like this to be released in theaters in years, and it was just a campy fun ride. All the little things the OP saw as stupid I just saw as cool little tidbits that added to make it even...
