Dubird

http://deadlystream.com/forum/forum/4-tslrcm/ That's the home of the good content restored mod. There's a couple others out there, but they were never finished. TSLRCM is not quite finished, but it's mostly in bug-fixing now, as well as working on the droid planet. Which you can play through, it's just a big sparse right now. Still, new location and things to kill and steal their stuff! http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com Has mods for KotOR and TSL. I've got a couple up there, though I never got around to finishing some others. The asthetic mods aren't always the best, but there are some really nice ones. I also recommedn RedHawke's Ord Mandel, it's a good mod and quest for KotOR. If you decide you want my list of favorites, I'll send it to you.

Make sure you talk to him. The first story he tells is hilarious! BTW, are you interested in mods for it? There's mostly cosmetic, but there are some quests and odds and ends out there.

Something occured to me today. Have you heard all of Jolee's stories yet?

That's what you get for leaving your light at the door.

As an addition, my new laptop has a touchscreen and came with Windows 8. It's optimzed for touch, and does a good job. But if it had not been a touch, I would've wiped the hard drive and installed Win7. There's a lot of things that bug me about it, but it is kinda fun to use the touch functions. It feels so futuristic!

he was in there like 5 minutes...it was basicly a cameo ^^

I've never seen Chronicles, but I had no problems. All it does is give a reason why Riddick is on that planet. And Karl Urbarn. And this was definatly a horror movie. Not Pitch Black, but same type of tension in a lot of ways. Trapped on alien planet, people wanting to kill Riddick, creepy aliens. I can't say any more without giving away a lot of spoilers, but yeah, it definatly falls into the horror genre.

The trailer didn't seem to give anyway anything except that it's a horror movie. There's actually more story than that. And why did he say it sucked? Did he give a reason?

You get a very basic summary of the ending of Chronicals, so you know it happens shortly afterwards.

Just got back and it's totally worth seeing! Not quite as good as Pitch Black, but still a good movie. It was also not a rehash of Pitch Black, which I apprecated. There were some elements that were familar, but it's Riddick and "friends" trapped on a hostile alien world, so yeah, there are some familar things. Still, it's a good movie on it's own. I liked the structure of the story and they did a great job with atmosphere. Totally worth seeing in the theater.

Ah, Asylum, such wonderful cheezy crap that's horribly fun to watch.

I've been seeing several back to school commercials from K-Mart, and there's something very off about them. Has anyone else seen them?

Good movie, but I thought Hot Fuzz was funnier, personally. And Shaun of the Dead started out good and the first half was hilarious, but the humor kinda started draining about half-way through and it just wasn't as good.

I think Comedy Central has a large dice roller to determine what gets played when. And they roll it every Saturday so they can plan the next week's schedule.

I wouldn't consider his role minor. I mean, not as big as Kick Ass or Hit Girl, but still, he's an important part of the plot. And I thought he did pretty good.

I saw it last night and enjoyed it. Yeah, Mother Russia's fight with the cops was awesome! The stinger wasn't really worth sitting through the credits for, though. And from what I understand, the comics tend to be darker than the movies were, just because the author likes dark, somewhat distrubing storylines.

Happy Day You Were Introduced To The World!

Well, I did like most of the original series. It's just that it was such a bad mindfuck at the end. I don't mind some confusion and I understand some questions aren't going be answered at the end. But I honestly can't remember how the series ended or how End of Evangelion went because I was THAT confused by it. At one point, I just turned my brain off and watching the pretty colors. >< But now I have this running through my head. (you can find the redux on youtube, but there's something wrong with the audio in places. still it was nice to actually hear Misoto's lines )

http://www.evaotaku.com/html/neweva.html So, several years ago, Hideaki Anno decided to remake Evangelion into four films. I didn't know this until today, with three films out and no idea when the final one is. I gotta say, I've got mixed feelings. I mean, the idea behind it and first about half of the series was really good, despite Shinji's whineyness. But it just ended in a bad mind-fuck which kinda leaves a bad impression overall. I'm curious if anyone has seen the first three and can tell if it's heading in the same direction, or if they cut down the religious overtones and soap-opera drama somewhat, or at least didn't leave you going 'what the fuck?' at the screen every ten minutes or so.

Make sure there's a Vent channel so we can comment/joke/heckel/shout advice while he plays.

Yeah, but that's an Asylum film, those aren't supposed to be taken seriously. And not all sequels suck. Despeciable Me 2 was very close to as good as the first one. It just takes a group willing to take the story beyond what happened in the first movie and not just rehash it.

Also, HK-47 is entertaining as hell! Not really my favorite choice for party member, though he's not bad as a blaster, but he's got some great conversations.

Everyone plays differently. The first run through, I did the full melee Jedi, so I usually had Carth and either Mission or Jolee. Bastilla too, but I liked Jolee better in terms of what he can do. He's also the cranky old man Jedi and that's just awesome. (Make sure you keep talking to him so he'll tell you stories. I laughed so hard at some of them!) Anyhoo, it's always good to have at least one blaster in the party, and if you keep Carth leveled up and give him the best blasters, he's going to be the best at it. Mission does pretty good with blasters, and she's near essential if you're not going to level up demolition or slicing, but she's pretty weak and can go down quickly if you're not careful. Now, I actually prefered to go through as a blaster Jedi. I thought it was a lot more challenging, and then my party had to include either Bastilla or Juhani for melee. Really, just think about your fighting style and make sure you have at least one melee and one blaster in the party. And SOMEONE that can heal, either it's you or one of the other Jedi. Seriously, that will make things easier in some of the tougher fights! As for grenades, I only used them in a few spots. Mostly, if I was in a fight that was really tough and I had to restart it, when the fight started, I would pause and fill everyone's bar with grenades, and the procede as normal. Lobbing 12 grenades at the baddie right of the bat can be helpful! I didn't really use traps, either, except at the end which would be a spoiler so if you get there and want to know about it, I'll tell you. I really didn't micromange hardly at all. Setting a behaivor type for each member is really all you need to do. The AI isn't always the best, but most of the time it's good enough you shouldn't have to micromanage them. Keep an eye on their health, because they kinda suck at watching their own health, but a quick character change to heal them is all that's needed. For Force powers, even if I was light side, I still took all the Force Lightening tree powers. That's probally the most useful offensive power in the game (at least, IMO). Plus, running down a hallway spawning Lightening Storm and killing everything in my path just makes me giggle like a schoolgirl. But pick what you want now, because you can't level past 20. And when you've finished it, there are some pretty good mods out there you can download, including a few story mods. It's not as extensive a community as Oblivion or Skyrim, but there are some good stuff out there. Makes multiple play-throughs more interesting to me.
