PC Name: Gaea

Bit of an aside, but if this type of character interests folks they might be interested in Tamora Pierce's Circle of Magic series (as well as it's sequel series The Circle Opens). Essentially it follows a group of youngsters who have magic that manifests itself through more mundane sources than your average wizard:…

Well, even by your definition the Sesame Street characters are muppets. Elmo, Big Bird, and the rest showed up in the muppet show, and Kermit, Miss Piggie, and the rest show up on Sesame Street.

Makes sense, but just as a clarification Cecil was not ever a dragoon. He was a dark knight. Kain was the only one who was a dragoon in FFIV.

The way I read the article, he was not attempting to list every viable move but rather show the ways people in tournaments over the ages have started their games.

Although I'm running nvidia in my rig I would not be surprised if the card of choice quickly switches to AMD. this is because the current consoles are basically glorified PCs running AMD cards, and because of that fact I expect future games to quickly become better optimized for an AMD rig than an Nvidia one, simply…

Nope. Last piece came out a month or two back.

The best method I've ever seen for cooking eggs only has them on the stove for one minute in boiling water. You then take the pot off the stove and let the eggs sit for 10 to 12 minutes. This keeps them from overcooking, and pretty much gives you perfect eggs every time. Given this, I'm not quite as skeptical about…

I felt that XD was an interesting experiment. They appeared to honestly be trying to make a more mature plot line in a pokemon game, something that they revisited (more successfully) in Black and White. Although it wasn't the best game ever, I can definitely appreciate the experiment for what it was.

The big thing I noticed about that footage is that Project Cars when compared to the real track looks way too clean. It's not really something that would ruin the photorealism effect if you weren't doing a comparison, but it's pretty blatant in that video. There's a patina of dust over pretty much everything in the…

Once again, selling Disney short. They very rarely make live action musicals. On top of that, even a fair amount of their recent animated films have not been musicals, and it's only very recently that they actually started experimenting with making animated musicals again (princess and the frog, tangled, and…

See, that's not doing Disney justice. They do not only do family friendly films. A fair amount of their recent live action endeavors have been pg13, and they've even done a fair amount of r rated stuff as touchstone pictures. Keep in mind that the original film was rated PG and was already pretty darn family…

You get to fight a spaceship in the orbit of a planet from that planet's surface while on foot by wielding an energy sword so big it can reach into orbit to hit the ship. Really, whenever I think about Rogue Galaxy, that's what stays in my mind, and it tells you quite a bit about the game.

the cable is like, 12 feet long, and I don't ever worry about batteries, plus when I'm at my computer I don't feel the need to have the ability to walk into a different room with my controller. *shrugs* Actually, I owned a wired 360 controller for my pc about half a decade before I got around to getting a 360.

Or you can just buy a wired 360 controller and plug it into your USB port. No adapter required.

I'm not normally "that guy," but I'd like to take this opportunity to encourage that anyone who AT ALL loves fantasy read the book. On the down side, it'll completely ruin the movie for you because it's so superior, but on the up side it's one of the best fantasy novels of our time.

I'd like to think we're like any other group. We've got a very outspoken group of pricks that color everyone's expectations, and then you've got folks like me in the background who try to be helpful but in the end get overshadowed by the pricks making the noise.

The setup fees are definitely high. I'm currently sitting at a tower that I initially put $3500 US into upfront, and have over the years dropped an additional $2000 US into. On the other hand, the sales across humble, steam, amazon, and other sources are much more amazing than anything I've ever seen for console, to…

You forgot King's Quest: Tactical RPG. I know, kinda sorta civ type, but very notably different still.

JRPGs for Life, my good man. Got a good list there. Might I suggest Lunar 1 and 2 if you can ever track them down? Also, if you haven't tried out the Final Fantasy games pre-VII, I highly recommend II, IV, V, and VI. Good stories and characters, with several extremely intensely emotional scenes, especially for…
