I hope more D&D software developers will take advantage now :) since, now being free, it is a more viable platform to present their utilities. The Mac + Windows functionality in one is a big plus!

As a young boy (7, 8, something) there was a store in the Mall near where I lived with all kinds of fanasy stuff. I remember seeing lots of pewter minis, fantasy magazines and stuff. Never bought anything there though. I was a big fan of He-Man so this was right up my alley. Durring my first...

Grievous. I can't believe how overrated Tarkin is here. To each is own! Grievous had a lot of style. He was mysterius (what? a droid but he has somekind of flesh underneath that metal face, wowza!) Could fight with the best of em (although it was more impressive in Clone Wars) and had a...

According to BoxOfficeMojo the budgets for all 3 LotR films: FotR Production Budget: $93 million TTT: Production Budget: $94 million RotK: Production Budget: $94 million Very low by blockbuster standards. Certainly the fact that they were all shot together accounts for the low cost. That, and...

I say PC. While I've only played the XBox version, there were some mild slowdowns in parts. As time goes on and you upgrade your PC, you can enjoy the extra performance. Plus, I don't know, I always tend to prefer PC versions of games when they are available. I agree, the mouse is an awesome...

Of all mentioned, I've only been to 31st Century. But despite the handful of visits I've made, I never noticed the comics section. Damn! I'll have to look around for that... I can say that 31st Century gives 10% off on on bigger purchases, but I'm not sure exactly how much you need to spend to...

I'm loving your tool so far :) I just have a question. Why does the installer want me to reboot after it finishes? I notice that the program still functions perfectly (from what I can tell) even if I do not reboot.

I use TopStyle Pro for xhtml/css and FileZilla as my FTP client. TopStyle Pro is not free, but there are some similar utilities which are. PSPad, for example. as my webhost, I use host.sk which is free and ad-supported but offers mysql and php. however, my php is very poor so I haven't utilized...

Well as a huge comic fan I wish I had replied first, but all the ground has been covered. If you follow the advice and heed the information in this thread, you'll do very well. I just want to add that alternate covers are just a useless gimmic. Just pick up whichever cover appeals the most to...

Winrar is the best of the 'pay' compression utilities, in my opinion. It can uncompress a lot but it can only create .zip and .rar, not .7z 7-zip is excellent and I use it. Free. Can compress/uncompress .7z archives, which are usually 30% smaller than .zip, and it's becoming more popular by the...

I might spring for a Revolution. I skipped the Gamecube but I did borrow my friend's a play through Wind Waker. Like many, I just love Nintendo's 1st party titles and the Gamecube backwards compatability really pleases me. So the only real question for me is: get all 3 consoles, or just 2? If...

Well I haven't seen it yet. I'm in the central time zone and they are showing basketball. But the local news had a blip a few minutes ago saying that the O.C. would be on after the news and it will show the trailer. They even showed a few quick shots from the trailer, too! Neat. I love the...

I like the mask because it seems like something a real psychopathic villain would wear instead of something designed by a movie costume designer. But the suit ... it just doesn't seem like a good enough match to me. They could have made him look more like a scarecrow, IMO. But maybe his origin...

Tempting, but very unlikely. At least not in the first year. We'll see how the lineup looks by then. Chances will increase as Square starts to release titles on it. ;) If all else fails, there's always emulators, which probably will appear within a few months of release. I don't know what I'd...

borrowed all four .HACK PS2 games from a friend. Finished Infection. Working on Mutation. Starting to get repetitive, since each volume introduces very few new features or gameplay enhancements ... but it's at least good enough to keep me interested. Now, rather that interest will last until...

Hey Eric, If it's your ad blocker or spyware blocker, then that's definitely a problem, since Firefox doesn't contain anything like that. Besides, if you switched to using Firefox 100% of the time, you wouldn't need an ad blocker (just use the Adblock extension with a good filterset) OR a...

Download it here! http://autorealm.sourceforge.net/download.php # This is likely to be the last release of AutoREALM using Delphi, all work is now being done on the wxWidgets port. This release contains a number of small fixes done since the last release, but no significant changes. *...

wow I had no idea it was out!!! It was supposed to be released in February I believe ... Anyone other than me think that WotC should add a Fiction forum at their boards, considering how many fiction books they release (look at the list of ALL (non-card) products they released in 2004, almost...

Starman: that sums up my own feelings on the final book as well. Those were my biggest problems with it, all the others I could forgive or let slide as my own personal quibbles, but the three things you mention are increadibly anti-climatic and you get the feeling that King INTENDED for the...

As long as Nintendo produces excellent first-party games (as they always have) then Gamecube ain't dead. It will definitely lag behind the PS2 and Xbox but it is still a great choice. And since you can buy it brand-new for $99 (or less?) it's a bargain. The new Zelda game that is coming out...
