Sounds good. That'll prolly be the next Wii game I get somewhere down the line after all, and I'm no questioner/doubter of its quality like Aura. 😛
lol Man... Now Congress is using the jobs crisis as an excuse for the whole internet censorship thing (even though jobs like the people of Google and other enterprises will lose jobs due to the internet censorship), and Harry Reid is moving to pass their bill on Monday. They officially ignored all complaints and opponents of the bill too, unsurprisingly. Gonna be a bit harder to take down than I thought. I dread and look forward to seeing what happens next week at the same time.

Yeah. There's already a massive internet effort going on to coordinate calls to make Congress see how much we don't want PIPA to pass.
I probably would have beaten it eventually if I'd actually owned the game. I didn't, so the only time I ever got to play was when I was at my friends' house.
It's one of those games I want to beat just under GP as a gamer. Same reason I'm slogging through Jedi Outcast.
edit- Am I the only one who's noticed that Space Marine codexes tend to all say the same shit, just with different names? The Grey Knights codex seems to be the only exception, mostly due to how OTT they are.

Actually, being me, I'd probably try to talk you into playing the entire series.

Nemebro, ultimately, what's your opinion on the new Necron fluff, having read the codex?
It's not so much bad, like say the fluff in the Grey Knights codex, so much as it is a complete rewrite of what came before.
I get that the Necrons from a characteristic aspect were not as accessible to players, I get that, and it is a fault I regularly cite as a problem with the first codex.
But to give the Necrons distinguishment as a faction, I don't feel a complete rewrite of everything that came before was necessary, and is a sign of bad game design, since it alienates the old playerbase. The thematic elements and feel of the Necrons is gone, now the Lords are dastardly cartoon villains akin to Cobra Commander (Because the Dark Eldar and Chaos shouldn't be the only ones to hog that scene amirite?), and the Necrons have been knocked down a few pegs in terms of being a decidedly villainous faction, now being honestly no worse and in some ways better than the Imperium morally.
Though, objectively, the fluff isn't as bad as Grey Knights as I said.
That said, there is still a lot of derpy shit in the fluff, Ward is as Ward does. The Celestial Orrery is completely ridiculous, the Necrons now have the means to effectively destroy the Imperium of Man with the press of a button. You get goofy shit like Necrons having non-Webway FTL only wait no it sucks wait no it's good wait no it sucks shit, which mirrors the inconsistent nature of the Grey Knights codex (Grey Knights are completely incorruptible! Purifiers are so incorruptible that they guard secrets that corrupt normal Grey Knights! CROWE MAKES OTHER PURIFIERS LOOK LIKE SLAANESHI CHILD MOLESTERS IN TERMS OF CORRUPTIBILITY!), and of course Imotekh beating Chapter Master Helbrecht's ass in a melee fight casually (The leader of a chapter specialising in close combat and the Black Templars themselves being one Ward obviously dislikes).
Stuff.
