GTA, MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Devil May Cry 4 and God of War are already five titles that strongly interest me, compared to Oblivion alone on the 360. That's enough. For the rest, the two consoles have lots of equivalent titles; fighting games, mecha games, whatever, there are good ones either way...

That's ok. But KenM had some false information (PS3 having 256 MB RAM), obtained from a severely biased source. I wanted to correct that, giving information that is confirmed and official (PS3 having 512 MB RAM). By "confirmed" I mean not only that Sony has stated it, but that it has stated it...

I posted this on another console-related thread, but you must have missed it - the PS3 will have 512 MB RAM. The table you linked there is misleading, because it only mentions video RAM - and, since the 360 doesn't differentiate between video and system RAM, it counts all of the 360's RAM as...

I'm going to purchase a PS3 when it comes out (well, after one or two months, so that the inevitable initial issues, see 360, have been resolved). It is certain that it will be at least as good as the 360, and it seems almost certain that it will be a lot better. And none of the announced 360...

Good answer. It's sad that you need to add new elements to the game to make a skill somewhat useful. Me, I've been toying with the idea of making Comprehend Languages and Tongues only work on current languages.

I have Skill Focus (disguise) with one character, and I'm planning on Deceitful. I have to ask. Why?

It hasn't come up, but I would allow someone to use an item to qualify for a PrC. Oh, the fun I could have with such a character. :]

...what is an apoplectic flumph?

Often. Especially as levels grow. 12th level town guards and entire armies of classed ogres hurt my suspension of disbelief badly. PCs in my campaigns can and do become able to defeat common monsters without breaking a sweat. Sometimes we don't even run the combat - certainly not when the CR...

Personally, I am put off by traditional settings. I've had way, way more than enough of dwarves and elves killing orcs and goblins.

I used to use Amazon a lot, but I think that's going to change. The Italian mail service has decide to "helpfully let us pay VAT and import tax directly to the mailman instead of having to go all the way to customs after receiving the stuff". Which, ahem, translates to "now I have to pay VAT and...

Basically, no, a Good character ideally should never torture, regardless of circumstances. Remember, D&D morals are absolute. You can make a case for torture being sometimes a necessary evil, but it is still evil. A Good character that is forced to torture someone should feel extremely bad about...

This is a common pitfall in the Law vs Chaos thing.Having a code, by itself, is either irrelevant or just slightly Lawful. The latter if the code leads you to have a better structured morality (note that the Goodness or Evilness of that morality has no bearing on the issue). Having an external...

Practices and enjoys torture, and inflicts cruel punishment. Big point for Evil. Kills evil people, but not innocents. Point for Neutral. Willing to act against great Evil, even with danger to himself. Point for Good. Self-sacrifice. Point for Good. Completely disregards law. Point for Chaotic...

As a big vacation, I'd tour the Upper Planes. It's relatively safe, with plenty of things to do and stuff to see. I would party in the Sensates' place in Arborea, the one where they relegate the folks that only seek pleasurable sensations, then I'd go relax and maybe study a bit of magic in the...

Gold is gold. I've tried to do otherwise every now and then, but it adds very little to the game in comparison with the hassle of conversions.

I like what you write. It dispels my greatest worries over the film. :)

The "point" is not to screw over other people, and the game doesn't encourage this in the least. It merely allows it to happen. Human nature does the rest. EVE has all the standard anti-scam features (secure trading, accessible character information), and then some (corporation roles). I play...

Years ago, we were gaming during a big (well, relatively speaking; the Mediterranean doesn't produce tornados) storm. I was sitting with my back to the window, and just as I was giving the BBEG's "I am so Evil" speech complete with manic laughter, a powerful lightning fell just outside, with...

Turrican. Zak mcKraken ATAM. Not old enough, but I'd like a FF7 remake with PS3 graphics.
