Ouch. See, we pc gamers are spoiled. We play online games that don't have framerate caps, have actual administration abilities and remote control built in from the start, access to decent mod tools and dedicated servers that are somewhat user friend...  [Read More]

Well, that's kind of what I meant. I have no problem with kids learning about religion at school, as long as they're not getting taught religion at school. Obviously, religion plays a huge part in all human history to this point, and it would be im...  [Read More]

It's for the PS2, but surely relevant to the other versions (from your above link on Gamespy): Those of you familiar with the original Battlefront will probably remember the behemoths we called vehicles. You know, those vehicles that took two rocket...  [Read More]

Who knows... I imagined the "weak point" would be like on the space maps if you shoot a craft in a certain area it takes more damage than elsewhere (sort of like in JKA where you could destroy a wing to destroy a craft, rather than just sho...  [Read More]

Being eaten by the Sarlacc helps make him so feared? Falling down a hole makes Palpatine feared? Getting choked by a dancing girl makes Jabba feared? etc. I'm talking about the implied threat of each of the Bounty Hunters in Empire Strikes Back. A...  [Read More]

But I'm not defending Lucas, only throwing out your tiresome arguements. I have motivation because you and other whiners take any and every chance to go "OMGLUCASDON'TLISTENTOFANS!" and other annoying crap. You're still defending him. Can...  [Read More]

Isn't it funny how many people blasts Lucas these days for being a money-grabbing, corporate sellout, and yet when he makes a decision that is obviously not motivated by money, he gets blasted for that as well. Actually it's not hypocrisy on our par...  [Read More]

So not making a big deal out of something so trivial makes me an apologist? Well, I suppose if that's what you wish to think. In the end, I'm just glad we got anything at all, we could just be stuck with the film reels. If all of this makes me some v...  [Read More]

They were, the few stereo editions used a faux stereo mockup. And Lucas does have a right to do what he wants to his movie. Considering it's his. And Lucas isn't the only one to deny the original version to be sold. Blade Runner: Director's Cut is t...  [Read More]

I'd rather have a well-developed character rather than one just based on his scary voice. I dunno, is that just me? I mean, with Vader, his scary voice was part of him, I mean, he is a scary guy. Even looks scary. He's menacing walking into the Tanti...  [Read More]

I think maybe you should stop being so uptight about it, they're only movies. The story is still the same who cares about some BS "purity" crap. Basically what I'm getting from a lot of people is that the movie makers shouldn't do anything...  [Read More]

Personally, I think there's something wrong with the ANH DVD remix. It lacks punch many places where there used to be a punch (like the opening scene) and music/effects levels is also done bad. According to LucasFilm reps, this was "a creative...  [Read More]

Yeah, because mono is too cool right? Many film lovers would argue that creating a "fake" stereo mix of a film that was originally shown in "mono" taints the accuracy of the presentation. It's like adding extra bass, echo and rev...  [Read More]

I'm a manager at GameStop. First of all we don't take pc games. Why? Copyright laws prohibit us to do so. How EB gets away with it? I have no idea. Gamestop is a video game retailer, NOT a pawn shop. The majority of the game retailers and hobby shop...  [Read More]

Right. Brand new PC games you buy for $50 and return to the store in pristine condition like the next day or something (but the box happened to be opened) net you something like $5. Doesn't matter if it was a buggy, crappy-@$$ game that didn't run on...  [Read More]
