    Whither Necromancer Games?

    Dead and gone, until at least the revised GSL comes out. I suspect that they might look at Pathfinder if the revised GSL hasn't come out by August of this year, but Clark has been extremely vague on that, so it's only wild speculation.

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    Yeah, pretty much. I don't think there's anything to discuss on the matter. AFAIC, the meaning of "exclusive" is self-evident. I'm more interested in the original thread subject. It was unfortunate this little sidetrack even happened.

    Wrong facts about D&D3 combat?

    The "accepted facts" on 3e that I see some people splurt out here at ENWorld just end up with me rolling my eyes (and it's not just in the areas you listed). Needless to say, these purported "facts" are wrong for me and my group. (And we play all levels, though 8-14 is our favorite.) (I don't...

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    And so is the PS3 and PC having free online and the 360 a great for-pay service. And the controllers are all different. And how avatars are used is different. And the peripherals are different. Blah blah blah. All wonderful factors to take into account when considering what system to buy a game...

    Battlestar Galactica#11-Sometimes a Great Notion/Season 4 Finale

    Then I look forward to seeing Adama, Roslyn, and others plugging themselves into computers. No matter what sci-fi cliches this show is trying to ape, cylons (well, at least 7 of the "models") are not the same as humans.

    What Level of Detail Do You Like in Your Games?

    The detail found in D&D 3.xe pretty much hits the sweet spot for me. (And I do love tracking every last cp, encumbrance, and "if it's not written on your sheet, you don't have it". Awesome.)

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    Dragon Quest V and Dragon Quest VI - the only DQs never before seen in North America. Woo!

    Comparing Platforms (aka How Does the Wii Stack Up?)

    Ah... the great question that only the Console Wars(TM) can solve... oh wait. Can only muddy. ;) [Also note that Oblivion - with expansion pack - is available for the PS3.] Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) has tons (tons!) of downloadable games, ranging from $5 to $15. There's a lot more there than on...

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    *shrug* Sorry - I'm not with you. PC is a system choice to play GoW or Mass Effect. It's that simple.

    Supernatural Season 4 - Spoilers

    Them "nothing more than animals defending their territory" sure wrote some good english, Clem.

    Battlestar Galactica#11-Sometimes a Great Notion/Season 4 Finale

    Unfortunately, this was very typical of mid-to-late BSG stuff. Such a thing wasn't an isolated incident, and there were enough (clear, to me at least) moments of the writers pretty much "making :):):):) up as they went along". Now that it's ending, there should be more focus and consistency.

    Do economical colour laser printers exist?

    I bought my parents the Samsung CLP-310N color laser printer for Christmas (on sale for $149 at the time). So far, my parents love it. It's reasonably fast, and does decent pictures. My parents' biggest problem was simply not printing enough and the ink in their old inkjet drying out so they'd...

    Comparing Platforms (aka How Does the Wii Stack Up?)

    Then you will hate the Wii. Then you will love the Wii! Absolutely not. And it is a gimmick when it comes to single-player games for those... above a certain age. There are a couple, of course, but only a couple. This. All of it.

    Any games to get excited about in 2009?

    This doesn't make any sense, as it is, of course, irrelevent when discussing what 'system' a person might buy (which is the point of discussing exclusives, unless we have some amateur market analysts here making stock trading decisons. No? That's what I thought). If someone can play GoW or Mass...

    Underworld 3

    Can anyone provide a synopsis? I'm guessing this is a prequel, right? I saw Victor (and Lucien - is that it?) in the previews - is the Kate whats-her-face character in it?

    So, has everyone pretty much given up on Smallville?

    Smallville = garbage. I dumped it a couple of years ago when Lana become just far too annoying, and I realized I wasn't interested in Smallville 90210. Now with that bit of vitriol out of the way, once I heard Lana was gone and this was (supposedly) the last season I decided to watch some of...

    Keanu Reeves is Spike Spiegel-- Whoa..!

    As long as Yoko Kanno does the music (and they use a number of tunes from the original series), I'll consider looking into it. But needless to say, my hopes aren't high.

    Battlestar Galactica#11-Sometimes a Great Notion/Season 4 Finale

    Not a bad episode - I was suitably impressed after suffering through the near-unwatchable drek that was Season 3, and the only marginally better (but still poor) S4. If I could follow along, and things make at least semi-sense, I give it a thumbs-up. I liked what I saw, and I think that...

    My name is Arnwyn and I endorse this message. :)

    Jan 2009: What are you watching?

    Turns out this would have been the best way to watch BSG. I envy you!
