    My Wife is in TV Guide - Who Wants To Be A Superhero 2

    So far, I've got to say Defuser and Hyper-Strike are the forerunners. Hyper-Strike maybe the most. He has a mix of Major Victory's charisma and Feedback's likeable nerdiness.

    Differences in the PS3s

    Cool deal. That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure if there were any big differences I was missing.

    Differences in the PS3s

    I've recently started a much better paying job and between that and Sony finally releasing games I'm interested in, I'm looking into getting a PS3. What are the differences between the 60GB model and the soon to be released 80GB model? Is the 80gig one worth the wait and the extra cash?

    Universal RPG's not Universal?

    See, that's the exact reason I like the resolution mechanics for all those games. Though True20 is my least favorite in that regard because of how linear it is. But then my first RPGs were Mechwarrior and d6 Star Wars. This concept of using different kinds of dice still boggles my mind. But so...

    Trail of Cthulhu cover posted

    Several ways. 1) Even a one point investment in an investigation skill will usually be enough to get the basic information from the clue. It is recommended that 3 or 4 points in a skill is a good max, and more will never really be needed. This allows each character to get a good number of...

    Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix SPOILERS!!!

    Saw it at midnight Tuesday. And I was highly disappointed. It wasn't bad per se, but a huge let down from all four previous films. The film seemed like two hours of nothing at all happening, with a little anti-climactic fight scene thrown in the end. And they had to leave a lot out (so I've...

    How did RPGs grab you?

    Giant freaking robots blowing each other up. (Mechwarrior 2nd Edition was my first RPG.)

    Test Drive Tie-in Fiction

    When I was a kid, all I read were Star Wars and Battletech novels. Looking back on them now, a lot of them weren't very good. But a good bit of them were. Even now as a young adult, some of the best, or at least most enjoyable fiction I've read has been Warhammer or Eberron novels. (And I've...

    Transformers

    Everything about the movie was spot on for me. The comedy was very funny. The action was glorious. The two girls were both very attractive. And the CG was easily the best I've ever seen. The robot forms all looked REAL to me. It was crazy.

    The "Rabid Wolverine" found dead

    Yeah, and for Chavo Guerrero. He's the one who found Eddie's body and the last one to talk to Benoit. AND the one who got Benoit's texts.

    What games should I have on my shelf?

    Savage Worlds again. Gotta love it. Plays fast and cinematic. Esoterrorists. Possibly the best mystery game system ever. And there's a Cthulhu-esque supplement coming out for it eventually too. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2nd Edition. My go to fantasy system. Absolutely brutal in combat. So...

    The "Rabid Wolverine" found dead

    In good wrestling related news, Roddy Piper survived and beat throat cancer. Something to feel good about.

    He's just broken down after years of drugs and alcohol abuse.

    The "Rabid Wolverine" found dead

    Well, the good new is that the death storyline is over and done with now. They are shelving it and rightfully so. Nothing came out, but a few things have come to light in the past couple of days. Apparently Nancy filed for divorce in 2003 because Chris threatened her and she feared for her's...

    The "Rabid Wolverine" found dead

    Bam Bam Bigelow and Mike Awesome both died this year as well. Awesome hung himself. Benoit's former tag team partner Biff Wellington died this past weekend. Sensational Sherri actually died in the past two weeks, during the "Mr. McMahon is storyline" and caused lots of rage as his storyline...

    The "Rabid Wolverine" found dead

    I know. It's tragic. He was always one of my favorite performers.

    [SWSE] Autofire seems very broken

    Autofire and other area attacks aren't auto hits though. It was a mistake in the book, but you have to roll at least a 10 to hit with them. Still very powerful though. And note that is roll a 10, not get a 10 with bonuses.
