by Maarten Goldstein, Oct 30, 2006 7:19am PSTNo interest in any of the games coming out this week, the wallet can rest easy for a while. Almost done with Dark Messiah of Might & Magic (thankfully I have not run into any issues, though it seems almost all issues I've seen mentioned have been related to a Steam install), and then I guess I'll finally go back to Dead Rising and see if I can't solve some more cases and kill some more zombies.

so I met a girl for the 2nd time. It was awkard. Maybe I'm just awkard. Maybe we're both awkward and don't know what we want. Or maybe it went perfectly normal and I'm being too critical.
She's graduating in December while I still have a few semesters left so it's not like we can get too attached.
We ate lunch together and then walked together to an art museum. It just felt like we were brother and sister, there was no connection. After it was over we just said "bye" and that was it, went separate ways. Maybe I'm expecting too much. I've only met her twice. Still, we share so many of the same interests. I just wish I could do a brain scan on her and find out what she was thinking. Is she thinking I'm a robot who has no emotions?
We are both quiet, but I tend to be the one to start conversations. She is very articulate and incredibly smart (we are both in engineering). She is just so incredibly difficult to read. I don't know if she's interested in what I'm talking about or if she's bored. She'll laugh sometimes and continue the conversation, but she'll never bring up a conversation. In her profile she describes herself as 1. quiet and 2. shy and 3. odd. But she is so genuine, such a real person. I just wish she would tell me if I'm being stupid and not doing something, lol.
Would it be too lame and creepy if I sent her a message complimenting her and also asking her what she wants from me? And to tell me if I'm being too robotic?
Maybe I should just wait and see how things turn out.

1990 Episode 1.
They discuss the unveiling of the "new" Toyota MR2 re-design which is now more rounded, only 16,000 pounds.
The Lamborghini Diablo,comingsoon! - 150,000 pounds.
The New Honda NSX Super car, borrowing heavily on their Formula 1 division.
and they discuss sadly (I think?) electric cars and hybrid / electric diesel solutions.......... - aren't we doing this all over again, I guess we didn't take it seriously last time......... :(
Still cool to watch - they had a rally segment too, following some woman in the WRC mentioned Carlos Sainz coming second in his Toyota Celica.

I'm sure the old guy is dead, and maybe she doesn't play the role of M, but it's something that bugged me about the commercials.

On a fresh Install of Firefox 2 here. All is fine but for one thing. I used to be able to type the word google then my search query in the address bar and it would send me to the 1st google results page of my query.
Example of problem -
Before - "google betanews firefox" would have brought up the google results for "betanews firefox" ....
Now - "google betanews firefox" brings up "google betanews firefox" as the search query.
Any way I can get this back to the way it used to be???

There are no daytime missions, no time limit missions, and it even has a complete coop campaign. What the hell? Overall plot is the same, as well as the characters, but that's pretty much it, it seems.

I tore through Medium from beginning to end this past weekend, except for Bark at the Moon and Cowboys From Hell. Those two songs, I don't know if I'll ever get through. My DLP TV's lil bit of lag just eats me alive on the fast parts.
Plus I was wondering, is this something weird with my controller or expected behavior: when two identical chords/notes are really close together, I strum down once and I see both of the chords/notes play. If I actually try to strum for both of them I get penalized for playing an extra note. It's like, as if I didn't already have enough to worry about... :) Anyway is that the way it's supposed to work?

My current 19" CRT is getting fuzzy on me, and I've decided to replace it with a new 19" LCD. Newegg has a couple of them that seem very good deals; one of each in 4:3 and 16:9
My big concern with widescreen is game support. How big a deal is this?

If Brazil ends up as a dictatorship, this would mean that the country would be under the absolute rule of a leader, or dictator.
Inflation is caused by printing more money. So inflation, a monetary phenomenon, is an increase in money and credit. The government's monetary policies are responsible for this. Increasing government spending by expanding the money supply means giving people more money.

I've heard conflicting reports about this one and between that and the battle macros, I'm a bit worried it may disappoint. That, and well...honestly my attention span has really decreased for RPG's since I was a kid. They used to be the reason I started gaming, and have sold many systems due to that marquee rpg lineup.
Now, that JRPG formula just makes me yawn and lose interest. Fast.

If you're interested in grabbing NWN2 tomorrow (although it's starting to sound like it'll actually be on shelves wednesday), Direct2Drive has NWN2 up for PreLoad/PreOrder. They've also stated the games will be 100% compatible with Obsidian's patches, so there isn't a downside to buying from them.
