You said to give you a few. Did you mean a few days.

You're playing with me. 😠

Got sidetracked with Veriform's ROTS rewrite, shuddup.

Which scans are you after? I'll be sure to provide them tonight.

The new source you found about Sidious being the most powerful sith of course.

I would also like it please.

So that I might immediately begin to work on how to undermine it. >:]

who is gettin gta v

The last game was kind of shit so no.

nah it didn't

it looks pretty ****ing sick. bigger than RDR, san andreas and IV combined.

Ahaha, oh man I'm having a wacky car chase and having fu- ah crap, I have to go bowling with my cousin. Ok now back to the f- uuuuuuh this cutscene is actually pretty grim and depressing. Hmm, mayb- oh fir ****s sake now I have to go play pool with that rasta *******. More of Nico's straight, depressing bullshit story. Going out with my G-friend. Watching Nico execute some dude completely non-comedically. And power button.

The game sucked and wasn't fun to play. It was a life-sim about the tough life of an immagrant ex-soldier with a tragic backstory when the GTA series is supposed to be about absurd parody and wacky fun. Worse, the game still has those elements, but they clash so badly with the other parts that its thematically broken and confusing.

not as good as the previous but still not bad. free roaming and multiplayer was fun.

any gta is good imo.

when it comes out i'll probably be inactive for a while

oh no

;-)

sucks right

Everyone I know who played the previous three before IV, didn't like IV. Having never gotten used to the wacky, over-the-top craziness of III-VC-SA, I really enjoyed IV. GTA V might be the first new game I buy since Skyrim came out.

Think I'm finally about ready to start The Old Republic. What servers do people play on?

"Bane"'s already taken. I checked.

Red Eclipse or Ebon Hawk depending on if you're going American or European.

So my favorite webcomic artist has started a Star Wars project in the form of a graphic novel. From the announcement:

There’s no shortage of explanations as to why George Lucas’s Star Wars prequels are considered a failure, but I personally believe the usual culprits (execution, screenwriting) are symptoms of a more fundamental problem: the Star Wars prequels present no story of their own. Instead of an original narrative, it’s an elaborate backstory that never ventures beyond referencing its predecessors. In short, the Lucas prequels serve as supplementary material that only retread (and by extension, diminish) the original trilogy.
[...]
[list][*]Star Wars ‘99 begins over 100 years before A New Hope, and does not cover the rise of the Galactic Empire or the Clone Wars. I believe that detailing these events lessens their significance in the OT.
[*]Star Wars ‘99 draws heavily from the original (and unused) designs of Ralph McQuarrie, holding to a classic Star Wars aesthetic while still offering a new adventure. It also still holds to the classic pulp sci-fi, samurai, and Western influences of the OT.[/list]

American's where it's at. Which class would you most recommend to play through first?

Looking forward to what he has to offer, Z. But his introduction was kinda silly and pretentious.

Buddy, clearly you have some kind of problem so I'd suggest you come follow me over to the Orbalisks R Us server and we settle it like men. And by like men I mean with laser swords. And by laser swords I mean our penises.

Sounds promising.
