  1. Saw Phantom Menace in 3D yesterday. The 3d Wasn't great, but it's still seeing more Star Wars at the cinema.

      3D Jar Jar was OK. It all looked more superimposed than actually standing out though. Not bad, but it would've been better to actually be flying next to podracers, for example.

      I don't really care about 3D, just happy to see Star Wars in theatres again, even if it's TPM :)

      I gotta admit though, opening crawl looked awesome in 3D.

      My thoughts exactly.

  2. EaW is a good game, so far.

      It is a good game, but it lacks in the space combat area. You are too limited in the number of ships available for the game. Plus the models are not exactly a beauty to look at. Even the 1998 Star Wars Rebellion allows for more ships to be at a battle. But if what you seek is true epic space combat, then you should try Sins of a Galactic Empire mod 2.0!

      Sith Holocron has recommended Ages of Star Wars and Ultimate Empire at War; I'll check out Sins of a Galactic Empire as well.

  3. Played first 3 tutorials of EaW to make sure it worked, haven't had time to do any more. Space combat reminds me of another game called HomeWorld 2. That's a good game as well.

  4. EaW Gold arrived, hopefully have time to install later.

      EaW Gold is a excellent game. Have fun! I unfortunately had to uninstall my EaW Gold Edition to make room for Skyrim. I refuse to uninstall either KotOR for EaW because even though EaW is a excellent game I'm too much of a RPG guy to let the KotORs or Skyrim go.

      Played the first 3 tutorials to make sure it worked. Definitely a good game.

  5. Hoping to get EaW Gold.

      Bought off Amazon for £8 ($12.71), being delivered.

  6. Creating catalogue of entire Star Wars action figure collection (and adding to it - bought Bo'marr Monk) & getting new comic books...

  7. Thrawn. Need I say more?

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Yes, you do. Thrawn in what context?

    2. Mandalore

      Generally. Reading trilogy at same time as Hand duology, found the Thrawn/Karrde action figure sete on eBay, and looking into getting Empire at War (of course with Forces of Corruption). An all-round Thrawn craze last night.

  8. Star Trek Online is good.

  9. *The drunk stands on 19, Al'verde is dealt a 3. He plays his +2 card, getting him to 20 and winning the first round* That was surprisingly close for a drunk. Maybe he's not so inept, maybe he's a skilled actor. If there's a way to check his blood... Al'verde thinks. *Al'verde inconspicuously picks up a small shard of broken glass from the floor and makes a small cut on the drunk's arm* "I do apologise! Allow me to clean the wound!" *He takes a sample of the blood and transmits it back to his ship for analysis*
  10. Feel like osik, but not too bad to try and reignite RP...

  11. ((I should also mention that double posting is allowed in RP to move storylines along if needed)) *The drunk thinks for a moment, then decides not to do anything. A 5 is dealt to Al'verde, and a 7 to the drunk. Again, Al'verde waits before using any side deck cards*
  12. Should do blog on weekend, but currently feel like osik.

  13. Kill Disciple Mod has hit 600 downloads!

      The funny thing is, last playthrough I did the mod didn't even work for me. Works for everyone else, just not the person who made it.

  14. If I keep up this level of progress, I might be able to finish The Phantom Menace game before I see it in 3D.

  15. The Phantom Menace PS1 game is a very, very difficult classic.

      How was the music in that game?

    2. Extreme110

      Extreme110

      From what I remember, it was pretty much looped, low quality versions of the music you get on the soundtrack.

    3. Mandalore

      The sound quality's better than some SW games I've got that are more recent (Lethal Alliance on the DS comes to mind).

  16. Powered Battle Armour Reskin has hit 400 downloads!

  17. Managed to beat my self-coded game without getting the message saying I'm rubbish at it.

  18. I think the "air duct" business is the fact that the Jekk Jekk Tar Tunnels were meant to be connected to the Nar Shaddaa Docks to extract the ship exhaust fumes, and should therefore be accessable from the docks.
  19. Otoh Gunga has far more jumping in the game than the film.

  20. Matrix Armour Reskin has hit 300 downloads!

  21. Played my first chess game against a living organism in several years and won, each of us taking a total of 5 enemies each.

  22. Anyone play the ancient Chinese game Go?

  23. Installed AVG last night, and I find it great already.

      You using the free version or the paid version?

    2. HK-47

      HK-47

      Exclamation: NO! AVG=EVIL!! ALMOST LIKE NORTON!!!11!!oneoneeleven

       

      Suggestion: Avira > AVG. Even the free version of Avira is better than AVG.

    3. Mandalore

      Paid version. And it's definitely nothing like Norton, that's the worst security EVER.

  24. Good day to you from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and su cuy'gar from Dxun. And how "old school" would you be willing to go? I've started a good old text-based one on the forums here...:¬) Skyrim's got a more interesting storyline than Oblivion, but Morrowind is still the best for plots.
  25. I've got Friend Approval on, but when I approve a request, it makes no difference and they're still not on my list.
