| | I hope Bioware hurries up and releases Dragon Age, I'm pretty tired of the ex-BIS crew/Obsidian trying to imitate Bioware when they are better off making smaller action modules (i.e, the IWD series) Flag this | Edit this post |

| I'll probably get it anyway, but the main quest of Oblivion was so long and boring I couldn't finish it at all.
Hopefully it's a totally new world and not just additional areas. And hopefully...no level scaling. Tired of freaking Goblins owning me at level 50 just because I don't have a maxed out character.
But...it looks like it might just be more content with the same game. Flag this | Edit this post |

| Yeah...I don't know what's involved so I won't make any outrageous assumptions.
However, based on what Shayne is doing, it sounds like he's appealing to the masses in terms of the actual payout ($250m). The real question is not the actual ammount but the legality of it--whether or not New Line paid Jackson his "contract due."
If they cheated Jackson by not abiding by the terms of the contract, then whatever Shayne says is ultimately irrelevant. (After all, you can't say either side "knew" it was going to be this successful of a film, or that Jackson has "enough", since whatever he was not paid merely goes into some other executives pockets. So "fairness" here may be an irrelevant defense). Flag this | Edit this post |

| China's one of those places that looks better in photographs than in real-life. Part of the nifty light effects is due to the fact that the entire country is covered in a thick CO2 blanket, which gives the "view distance" effect you see in RPGs like Oblivion, where mountains look like 2D pastel pastings, where nothing is defined but looks like single colored blobs in the distance.
You can drive a thousand miles from the nearest city into a mountain range and the smog is still 10x thicker than in Los Angeles. The air is so thick there it's unreal.
I much prefer the glaring, clear photos of good ol' USA, thanks. Flag this | Edit this post |
