    Diablo III

    I never actually played Diabo 1/2, but I played Titan Quest and enjoyed it. Never did finish, but bought it as much to try out the new computer (new then, not now...) as to have a new game to play. The trailer was great, but the gameplay video bored me and I stopped halfway through. I realize...

    Diablo III

    Well, there is simulated violence and language, yes, it's got simulated language. Obviously not suitable for a 7 year old.

    The Incredible Hulk

    I like late-credits stuff, but having to wait through endless credits gets a bit tedious. Iron Man was a great movie, and I stayed for the last bit, but it seemed like the credits would never get there. Then the actual scene was so-so.

    Do You Regret Ordering Online?

    I bought (via buy.com) based solely on price, so I don't really care when it shows. (It has shipped, be here next week.)

    WoW Newbie - How soon can group different races?

    I'd say binding to Shat is useful once you hit the high 40's. The stupid talk-to's have you going back and forth so much it's obscene. Before that, yeah, one trip here or there doesn't need a Shat-Port. Also, flying from Darnassus to anywhere else on Kalimdor is just a pain. Nothing like a...

    WoW Newbie - How soon can group different races?

    Draenei and Night elf link up easy, and human/dwarf/gnome. It's really just the wetlands with the treacherous road ways. (Though, the little tunnel leaving the gnome/dwarf starting area may pose a risk at 1st level.) The Draenei area definetly had the best storyline to it, I think. (I haven't...

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    D&D being minimized, sure. At the least it means I have less material to read while doing laundry.

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    I don't have search, so it'd be up to someone else to find the WotC statements at the time. Semantics aside, what's your point? This is a discussion forum, anyone can post, but I'm not sure why you're taking my opinion as a debate.

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    I preordered the PHB already, as I mentioned one of my groups is switching to 4e to give it a try. However, it's a much lower investment than previous editions of D&D. Don't think of it as "D&D lost a player", so much as "D&D4 made a collector into a casual player".

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    That's nice, but nowhere do I complain it's not videogamey enough, so I don't even understand the reference. I get together with my gaming buddies online and we play roleplaying games, we have a set time. WoW's pickup groups is a totally different thing.

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    Nope, when folks kept saying 4e was here, WotC said it wasn't coming, right up until a month before it's announcement. Well, as I said, I'm sure they'll be available in some capacity, but they are not a PHB race. I've only ordered the PHB, since I want to check the system out. My point is...

    How WotC drove me to WoW

    I've got 90% of the 3e/3.5e stuff, each month WotC got money from me (via borders or buy.com) as I purchased nearly everything they made. I defended them at times on these boards, though it did little good. So, 4e is announced (sure with less than the one year headstart and just after they said...

    Gnome lovers get some love.. well kind of.

    It's funny, as a gnome lover myself, since I had just ordered the PHB via buy.com this morning. Then I wander through and find this thread. (Which should be entitled "gnome haters get some love", since it really does just accentuate the loss of the gnome.) 4e really does want to drive me away...

    [Lord of the Rings Online] Anyone playing?

    I tried the prerelease, but it just didn't grab me. Nothing bad really, but other stuff to do. I know of a few folks that play and like it, but not I.

    Dragonlance Lost Chronicles Canceled ?!?!

    I haven't read the first two books, but this isn't a "trilogy" in the normal sense. Since it's just an "in between" series there is no need for a completion, so to speak. It's already completed.

    Dragonlance Lost Chronicles Canceled ?!?!

    It might also be a simple matter of how late. In the DL thread, it was mentioned that they had contacted WotC about arranging a time to turn in the manuscript and were told not to bother. I'm not sure that means they HAD a completed manuscript or were just close to finished, but that was...

    Heroes Season 3 promo

    Not really a valid comparison though. I'd turn the tv off long before watching most reality tv shows. I can find a lot more enjoyable things to waste time on then Heroes.

    Heroes Season 3 promo

    That assumes that something important would have happened in those scenes (and that the already jumpy show could handle another, longer such jump). I didn't see the alleged improvement, so I disagree. It's just an opinion-matter though, so no biggie. Because, he didn't see the problems as...

    Heroes Season 3 promo

    Season1 ending didn't leave me with a good feeling. Season 2 just trampled whatever goodwill I had left. Missy not commiting to Heroes was no deathblow, unless there was some extravagant writing that made that Candace/Sylar plotline work. That's a lot of hope there... Writers Strike rewrites...
