    Freedom Force

    This game was a TON of fun. I didn't get into it as much as I could have after beating it, though I did make some LEGO men superteams with downloaded skins. My daughter had a ball too, making superheroines and flying around the city. LOTS of fun... Vrylakos

    [Atlas] Penumbra Bestiary and MINIS!

    Hm, it does seem like a rock and a hard place, but my thought would be that you'll end up with a shorter shelf-life for the PB than if you had made if 3.5 compatible. Rather than more opportunities for sales as time wears on (given that most sales occur in the first month or two), it seems to me...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Ok... Here's my game library for the foreseeable future: Jet Set Radio Future and Sega GT: came with the Xbox. Not too wild about SGT, as I don't know how to play racing games effectively. Halo: Paid full price for it ($49.99), as I enjoyed it that much when playing with a friend at his pad...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Ah, never played any of them and wasn't sure of the titles and differences... Whoops! Buffy so far is pretty sweet. Getting to the annoying molotov cocktail vampires and having a tough time licking em. Played BG: DA with daughter... she loves it. It's the D&D game we've never gotten to run for...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Ok, so I opened the Xbox. Not sure how to connect it to both my VCR (low shelf) and stereo (high shelf) but it's up and running. Jetset Radio Future is sort of fun... not very far into it. Buffy: pretty cool... very evocative of the TV show, though a bit clunky in parts. Got up to Spike and...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    I was wondering what the perqs are of Capcom VS> SNK. I like the arcade version of Capcom vs. Marvel... dunno if I've ever played the SNK one though... Vrylakos

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Could you tell me a little more about these two? I remember hearing a bit about Shenmue I, but seem to have missed any talk of II. What do you like about those two games? Vrylakos

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Well, on the good news side, a Bloody Roar Extreme is slated for Xbox release in May. I'm thinking Dead or Alive for a fighter, Halo coz it's neato. Then, Mechassault for my mech fix (but it's no Armored Core... sigh)... Looking a bit better. I may get a PS2 yet, but only when the money from...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Ok, to answer your questions... Well, I do dig Halo, and Dynasty Warriors looks fun. Buffy for $18 at Costco seems like a good deal. I'll probably play Silent Hill 2 though I heard fairly bleh reviews of it. I'm not sure what fighting game I'll want to get... have to look into it. My daughter...

    What rocks on Xbox?

    Ok... flipped out and got an Xbox. Not opened yet. I could take it back, spend $50 more and get a PS2. It came with Jet Set Radio Future. My daughter will dig that. Also some Sega GT thing. I know I like Halo. BUT... I also love Armored Core! GAAH! I love building robots! I'll dig Silent...

    [OT] Vote for a Cosmo model!

    The rest of the chicks look sorta standard model-boring, with the exception of a couple who look, IMO, a little strange (which is actually a good thing - models just seem so standardized). But Tanisha is genuinely pretty, so she gets my vote! Nice smile! Vrylakos

    Mortality Radio # 30: Ed Stark interview available...

    Rogues are restricted to certain weapons based on thief-type weapons. It makes sense - the class plays to the archetype. If he wants more, he can spend a feat. Hey, I'm glad you had fun with your Ranger 25, but really, can you get off the attitude that your opening sentence reeks of? What some...

    Mortality Radio # 30: Ed Stark interview available...

    And that's my point. How about giving them things they can use? The class let them down, even if they didn't know it. The classes should be their to help a player's concept, not restrict it. You'd assume if a ranger was trained in something, it would be so they could use it, not abandon it...

    Mortality Radio # 30: Ed Stark interview available...

    I'm sorry, but I agree with much of the frustration here. I'm not seeing a pressing need to get 3.5 with the revelation of these changes, whereas a few days ago I almost put down money to preorder them. It *doesn't* sound like they're making this revision to please the players out there, to...

    Golems: Method to Madness?

    Yes, I do have it, though it's one of many books I seem to have bought but not actually read very thoroughly. I'll give it a look, though I guess since it's FFG it's not the "official" word on Golems. Hm, I've also got the Constructs: It's Alive book by Mongoose... I'd better check there too...

    Golems: Method to Madness?

    Hm... Spells and Spellcraft by WOTC? Is that 2nd Edition? Or am I thinking of the FFG book? Vrylakos

    Golems: Method to Madness?

    Hello everyone! Well, I'm designing a golem, and naturally enough want to include a section on "construction". So, I look things over, observe the various costs and so forth, and try to find a pattern. Well... I'm stumped. Does anyone have any clue as to whether there is a formula for...

    Vote for your Favorite D&D Artist [World Championship Edition] LOCKWOOD vs. ELMORE!!!

    Really, all the arguing about artists is a bit pointless as taste is taste, but I wanted to note that your feelings above are mine exactly, but with the artist's names reversed. I respect Elmore's work, but Lockwood just seemed much more fresh. Elmore's work would not have gotten me back into...

    Pics of WOTC Minis... NOT 40-65mm
