    Trail of Cthulhu - Impressions?

    I've heard that before, but my impression of the scene, as the island descends and the boat causes temporary discorporation. Assuming that it's even Cthulhu himself, there's still plenty of deaders. I'm all for stats on gods and old ones and everything, but seriously, if your game ever...

    Billy & Mandy: Wrath of the Spider Queen

    At the least they called them Dark Elves, if not Drow... and yeah, they were the servants of a spider demon type.

    Whatever happened to Virtual Reality?

    Aside from the weight of the headset, I found that most of the VR stuff just lacked the simple principle of eye dominance. Same way with 3d, the images are out of sync with each other, and it can simulate distance, except for certain areas of the screen where the "sync" just isn't in line with...

    April and Beyond is up

    Movie reviews on the site are fine, but seriously, it's the internet. You're not saving page space by combining articles. If they posted film reviews to their own article, they could then track how many people actually care.

    Deleted "scene" from Revenge of the Sith

    I'll go with boring and badly executed.

    Heroes Season 3... Sept 15?? Origins dead

    Same here, the writers strike killed the momentum of a lot of shows and now I don't have a schedule for TV. Heroes was such an utter failure for me that I have no interest in making a special exception to remember to watch it.

    WoW honors Gary

    For me, it's sort of like Tolkien. If he hadn't been "the guy", someone else probably would have, but he WAS that guy. Giving him his due for being "the guy" that brought Fantasy to the fore is the right thing in my mind, just as crediting Gygax with his achievements is. Sure, if he hadn't done...

    WotC: Goodbye, Loren Greenwood, hello Greg Leeds

    When you achieve the proper level, you must challenge the next highest to a duel. If you lose, you are reduced in level with xp in the mid-way point for that level...

    Bionic Woman

    I liked BW, but like most of the shows I lost track of it in the strike and gave up on regular schedules and such. If I have a full schedule of shows to watch it's one thing, but catching one here, one there, just doesn't stick to mind.

    WoW honors Gary

    You can't, we can't, but World of Warcraft... yeah, they can... :) And yeah, they've done homage's and memorials to others before, so something in game would most likely be very well done.

    Exalted vs D&D. The battlelines are drawn!

    Right, that's what I meant, it depends more on the group than the game, IMO.

    Exalted vs D&D. The battlelines are drawn!

    I don't mean the "gods among men" theme, but the "players dictate the plot" type deal. It's been presented in almost every WW game, and I've seen it suggested in plenty of other games. It's never worked in my experience. I'll take your word for what has happened in your games, but the power...

    Exalted vs D&D. The battlelines are drawn!

    I got mine from buy.com for $27, so no complaints. The history/background of Exalted is neat enough, the setting itself isn't really detailed very well IMO and what's there sort of blends together, coupled with a horrible map that shows a few cities in the middle of a large expanse of open...

    Exalted vs D&D. The battlelines are drawn!

    No offense, but I've seen that idea put forward in many WW games. In theory it's great that your players set the tone, in practice it's just dependant on the individual group and has nothing to do with the game system itself. In practice, D&D games that don't include the players backgrounds in...

    Exalted vs D&D. The battlelines are drawn!

    Seriously, there's a whole other thread where it goes back and forth, so no need to go through it all again. Most folks made up their mind right away and Internet Rule 1 says to treat an opinion as absolute fact, so there ya go. There is no rumor about destroying the books, it's in the...

    Wii - Smash Bros. Brawl

    I think fun is the main thing, and it's always hard to describe. For me, not a multiplayer guy, Halo3 was fun, CoD4 was not. I'm sure there was also an element of the Nintendites finally getting an updated classic for the new system. It doesn't mean it's not a good game or anything, but just...
