That's only with regards to the "internet connectivity" which has been completely pointless in practice and the Picture in Picture commentary. Which again seems to be less than impressive. PiP is cute and has the potential to be interesting or useful in the future, but that's going to take some...

This fight did not go at all how I had been expecting it to. The ability to actually heal during the fight made a huge difference. Since the Cyst was dishing out enough damage to drop Korm or Gareth in a single round. Though originally the reason why I had chosen the Avorals to summon, was...

Congrats on the purchase! It is a very slick unit and can also serve as a media streamer off of your computer. The 80 gig model isn't 100% backwards compatible, but there are a substantial number of very good PS2 games, which should also be quite inexpensive used. So don't forget about those...

The PS3 is currently the best Blu-Ray player out there and is future proof as well. Something most of the stand alone players are not. So if you are considering getting a Blu-Ray player, unless you've got $1000 to blow on one of the high end Pioneer players, it is the one to get. Especially when...

I'm seeing something similar on the english version of the Daily Yomiuri (a Japanese newspaper), though the byline is Associated Press. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/A/AS_TEC_JAPAN_TOSHIBA_ASOL-?SITE=YOMIURI&SECTION=HOSTED_ASIA&TEMPLATE=ap_business.html

I think you're missing part of the point of the original movie. God apparently had decided that simply having it buried under tons of sand, in a lost city, with the only clue to it's location being a double sided head piece for a staff, wasn't providing sufficient protection against it being...

An update! Sweet! Thanks Sep.

Usually, the drive will have the jumper locations for the various modes, shown on the drive somewhere. You will probably have to take it out of the machine to see it though.

The 360 is unlikely to get much in the way of "anime" games. Simply because it sells so poorly in Japan. It's strengths are mostly in the shooting/action games and a substantial number of the games for it are really aimed at an adult market. So far the PS3 doesn't have a great deal of "family...

Thinking things over, I've noticed that Shil likes "objects with a soul/that possess people". We had Gareth's sword Kismet which had a Demon in it. There were the magic items the Quori used to possess the group. The Key was linked to our character's souls. There's the Endless Blade, which has...

He did once. 2 Players were found dead the next day and 3 more had gone insane. He's had trouble persuading people to show up for another session since then for some reason.

Maetel from Galaxy Express 999 would fit perfectly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_Express_999 The Ver Ka (For Katoki Hajime a mecha designer) is a very nice update of the classic RX-78 design. It takes what I always thought was a fairly bland design and adds a lot of personality and...

From an email exchange. As Six's player put it. This is why we never talked to anything in the Mournland.

Ataru Moroboshi from Urusei Yatsura, might work for The Tower. He was born on a friday the thirteenth, on the unluckiest day of the Buddhist calendar. His parents broke a mirror on the way to the hospital. A black cat crossed their path, etc... In short about every bad omen possible happened to...

There were issues for a long time with SLI under Vista, some sort of drivers were supposed to have been released around the middle of '07, but I can't find anything on the problem actually being fixed or working well. YMMV. While they don't have anything equivalent to the 8800, the ATI...

Wouldn't they not knowing be worse actually? Since the first warning they'd have is when the 19th lv wizard hit them with "Wail of the Banshee" with a dc none of them were able to make?

So you think a cr 20 encounter is appropriate for a 10th lvl party? He mentions a series of battles any one of which probably should have been a TPK. Then a dungeon that renders the players character almost completely useless. That is not a single encounter. Is it an attack to say that the DM...

Nobody was agreeing with the player being a whiner. What we were agreeing with is that these encounters were poorly designed and far more lethal than a party at that level should be facing. Also that the last dungeon described, certainly seemed designed specifically to gimp the whiner's...

Galadriel might well be able to corrupt Gandalf if she had the One Ring. It does let the holder peer into the minds of people who had the three elven rings and the Istari were susceptible to corruption after all. So she could see what buttons to push in Gandalf to bend him to her will. Though...

Actually the guy does have a point. He might be doing it in a whinny and irritating fashion, but he's got a basis for complaint. A lv19 wizard is nominally on his own a CR 19 encounter, which means he's a +4 CR challenge for a lv 15 party, never mind a lv 10 party. +4 CR encounters have a...
