I remember that episode. Doesn't Scotty burn up on re-entry to a Dyson Sphere or something like that? Oh, the irony.

Yeah I don't know how anyone can make that comparison when the comments at Youtube and GameTrailers are in different languages half the time or look like an 3 year old's first attempt at spelling.

I saw what you did there.

Every time I watch gameplay videos of SW: ToR I have horribly vivid flashbacks to Tabula Rasa.

I hope I'm wrong.

4. Re: Champions Online Free Next Weekend Oct 24, 2009, 15:40 sir
 
How about a week or two? Or is that too long because people will finish the game by then or hate it?

Both of those reasons, I expect. I have a main who is level 34 and various alts, but have played the game very sparingly, at most 2 hours per night over the course of the month.

I wish I could muster some enthusiasm for L4D2, but I just can't, despite having played L4D to (un)death. Or maybe that's the problem.

I had fun with it for about a month but haven't logged in for a few days, so it looks like my search continues for a slow burning, pointless yet enjoyable time sink. (No get a wife jokes, please, I already have one ^^)

the 3 month subscription offers a 20% discount, 6 month subscription yields a 30% discount and 12 month offers a 45% discount

I prefer the 0 month subscription. It offers a 100% discount.

Ah, Mobile Forces, the turgid Unreal mod turned commercial title..I remember writing a preview of it, and the PR invertebrate at Rage subsequently accusing me of lacking enthusiasm.

5. Re: 2 men kissing vs severed head Oct 7, 2009, 16:21 sir
 
Just a thought that the "realness" of an image might be more of a factor than gayness vs gore.

I'll buy into that. I'm sure I must have seen a few gay male kisses and a thousand gay female kisses thanks to the wonder of the internet, but none of them stick in my head. Porsche Girl's violent decapitation, however, will be rattling around my brain forever.

Edit: I tell a lie, 2girls1cup has one kiss I'll never forget, but I'm not sure if it falls under the gayness or gore category

It's already been reviewed in PC Zone UK. They award it 'classic' status, which is something they give to very few games indeed. I couldn't tell you what the review said, though, as I'm a lazy sod and just skipped to the score.

The Ships of the Line list on the Star Trek Online Website outlines all the ships that will be part of Star Trek Online

It can't be that exhaustive because I'm sure that I've seen D'deridex class Romulan cruisers in some of the screenshots. Or to put it another way Cryptic, no D'deridex, no sale.

I'm tempted to pick this up again now that it's 5 bucks (or 5 quid) on Direct2Drive. Has it improved much in the past year?

I know what you mean. The game always seems like a secondary consideration in his reviews as he prattles on about something of no consequence (to the game, anyway). I mean who gives a shit about the socio-political ramifications of Red Faction Guerilla. It's a sci-fi shooter for Christ's sake. Good for you that you've connected the Twin Towers shaped dots and drawn parallels with the post 9/11 Zeitgeist, but the rest of us just want to blast some aliens.

News Comments > Champions Online Retcon Resolution
3. Re: Champions Online Retcon Resolution Sep 24, 2009, 17:30 sir
 
I still don't understand the need for these retcons. I started the game with no prior knowledge of how the power-sets work and have managed to cobble together seven 'toons, all of which can hold their own when it comes to PvE. So who, exactly, is it that needs these retcons? I'm guessing it must be the PvP crowd and the terminally indecisive.

CO just had so little depth, and the combat while fun initially grew boring after a very short while as it too lacks any kind of depth.

I won't disagree with you there, it's hardly the most intricate MMoRPG I've ever played, in fact it's possibly the least, but for my situation right now it suits me fine as I want something that I can dip in and out of without getting bogged down with guild commitments etc.

I'll eat humble pie on this one and admit that I'm actually having a bit of fun with this game at the moment, despite my beta experiences. I'm tearing through the levels, however, and am wondering how much content awaits when I hit the glass ceiling.
