    Soul Calibur III

    it's pretty fun. i was watching an interview with the lead designer of the game here in the office (i work for 1up.com) and he showed off some custom characters. You choose the height, gender, body type, weapon type, fighting type, and that sort of thing. your character becomes good or evil...

    Power supply

    Heya folks. I just got a new GeForce 6600 gt oc video card, and boy is that thing a power hog! after plugging it in, my computer takes 339 watts just to turn on, and since my current power supply is 350 watts, you can see where that would be a problem. So now i'm in the market for a newer better...

    What would you like to see dropped from Dungeon?

    I like downer, but i think i'd enjoy it more in a book by itself, so that i could maintain continuity and plot summary without having to constantly go back and reread older strips to remember what is going on. and letters to the editor are awesome =)

    Dry spell?

    despite working for a video game magazine (1up.com!), i'm deep in a dry spell of all forms of gaming. My commute is long each day, and at work, i'm too busy doing production stuff to actually get around to gaming. It's kinda sad, really.

    China Mieville on D&D

    i tried to read Perdido Street Station about 4 times, but the book just didn't grab me. His style never really clicked with me, and kept putting me to sleep. That, more than his politics, is why i don't read him =)

    What are your favorite weapons?

    halberd, morning star/spiked mace, or double bladed battle axe. of course, a polearm which is a battle axe on one side and a flanged mace on the other would cause me to spontaniously combust =)

    Okay so you hate Dragonlance, how can the current designers improve it?

    hmm. 4 pages of thread and not a thing i can really say. I love DL, so this isnt the place for me anyway. Really, this setting is definately one you have to want to like to really enjoy. For me, i like the metaplot, the religious overtones, the overt good vs evil, and the various strictly...

    Dragons of Despair - your experiences?

    I love dragonlance. But DL1 is a royal pain in the donkey to try to run. Let me offer some background. I started playing in 2e, and in a dragonlance game that was run by my pal out of the Tales of the Lance box. It was loosely modelled on autumn twilight but went way weird soon after, for a...

Both versions ranked pretty high over summer and fall in european dance charts. It's basically a song about a dude calling a...
