Mark me down as another interested party. I'm still playing the original game when I can. Part of me desperately hopes the next version of Modern is a revamped version of Alternity. I'd love to see simpler character creation system. Perhaps even going classless. A modified skill list. All the...

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (PS3) - Finished with the Light Side ending. I'm now going through and finding all the hidden holocrons and going to get the Dark Side ending. It isn't a great game. It can be brutally frustrating at times, but it is Star Wars, it looks pretty, and the force powers...

It's doable and perhaps quiet interesting... It has been a long ten years. The Aztec's were right. The world did end in the high tide of Dark Matter on December 21, 2012. And in its death civilization collapsed. But in the ashes a new world rose. A world of alien warlords taking human for...

Most of my ideas I'd gladly translate into 4th edition, but there are still some 3.5 published games I'd gladly play. Paizo's Curse of the Crimson Throne - I found Rise of the Runelords enjoyable, if flawed. I like the idea of an urban adventure and it looks like they have improved on the...

I'm interested. I'm in the process of moving and temporarily living only a mile away from Misty Mountain Games. Misty Mountain does have a huge side rooms full of tables. Of course on weekends they have tournaments going on so it is packed with CCG players.

Star Wars Saga Edition is really growing on me. I like the streamlined system and we finally get a simple and usable system for droids and starship fights that mirror their most often used counter pasts (species and character combat.)

I actually carry everything I need on a flashdrive and plug into a PC. I try to make it as simple as possible. Open Portable Firefox: Tab 1 - TiddlyWiki with all your campaign notes. It takes a little bit of time to familiarize yourself with how to use TiddlyWiki, but when you do, it is the...

You mean the picture where they killed off Nebbin the iconic Gnome?

I would go to the d20 SRD and copy and paste the appropriate race and class info into a word document to print out for each player. That way the halfling monk knows all about halflings and all about monks, without paging through the PHB. Knowing what is coming at the next level might also make...

Show me the flip side of the coin and I'll be happy. I have to admit, I am a bit concerned with all the information we've seen on evil, devils, and demons. Good should get equal attention in the core books. In the end, we all want good to overcome the odds and triumph. I we can't create shining...

Bioshock has a creepy atmospheric score. Download it here: http://downloads.2kgames.com/bioshock/BioShock_Score.zip These are some songs I had queued up for a spy action game: Radiohead - I Might Be Wrong* Radiohead - There, There* The Music - The People* Kasabian - Club Foot* Kasabian - Ovary...

Well, I thought I may as well follow up my positive comments with this: I'm shelfing Hellgate until they can get the stability issues figured out. I've been stuck on a quest because of frequent crashes. The quest has you travel through three zones and I can't do it as the game crashes every...

Honestly, I don't think it is a bad thing to move away from Gibson-esque cyberpunk. It could be nice to see a more modern vision of a bleak future.

I like this idea. I used a similar house rule in the RCR version. It makes the dark side a little more tempting. I just gave a dark side point, but I like the 1d4 because there is a little gamble to how much you actually slide down the dark side slope.

Neglecting the discussion of the accuracy of your book, I believe Green Ronin's Skull & Bones book has rules on dueling. It has been awhile since I've read it, so I can't remember what it covers. But I do remember the book being 3.5 compatible.

I'm digging this. When I first looked over it I thought, "Well, I like the Pathfinder modules, but if I'm going to make my own adventures from scratch I'll keep with Eberron for 3.5." But, seeing this, I'd gladly use Pathfinder as my 4E setting of choice. Unlike some people, I'm not either/or...

I want one of my friends to get an Xbox 360, so we can play co-op over Xbox Live. However, most of these games you can play in the same room too. Off the top of my head here's a list (only looking at the coop portions) that might convince you to get that 360. Gears of War - A fun gore filled...

Hellgate: London isn't going to go down as "one of the greats" like Diablo II did. However, the game is just fun. When you compare it to some of the more recent releases we've seen - like Bioshock - it doesn't have the same immersive atmosphere, but you also have to look at what the game does...

Careful, you can quickly end up playing this game far more than you planned on. There is alway one more quest to complete, one more area to explore, or one more level to get. The game isn't great. There isn't a lot of depth. But, it has that perfect amount of loot dropping and just the right...

Interesting thread. I've enjoyed reading everyone's responses. I'll admit, there are some minor aspects of D&D that I don't like. Fortunately most of those are explored greater outside the core rules, so I don't have to worry about. Also, D&D is what you make it. I can easily focus on aspects...
