Quote:I dozed off a few times, so maybe I missed something, but when did we find out that lived on Earth at one point?Originally Posted by MentalMaden
Well, it's looking like they aren't aliens actually. They once lived on earth and left for some reason and there is a faction of them that want to take earth back now that their current planet is unihabitable.
Also: You live in a galaxy 10 MILLLION LIGHT YEARS away, and the closest habitable planet you can find is Earth? It makes some sense if they originally came from here, but even so... extend a sphere 10 million light years in any direction and you can't find anything better?!
Also also: This show would have immediately become a hit if they played The Lonely Man theme as Sean walked off.

Flash Forward
I gave up on V a couple weeks ago, and I'd be shocked if this gets renewed. It's just not that interesting. -
I'm up for the late Mistral on Tuesday, and both Mistrals on Wednesday.

Blech, begging to differ in so many different ways. There are interesting things to the series, of course, but greatest? No, sir.

Quote:These are interesting developments, but I hope someone keeps in mind the weird/old school/hardcore gamer in mind. I'm talking things like Etrian Odyssey, Advance Wars, Dark Spire, Knights in the Nightmare, SMT: Devil Survivor, FF Tactics (ok, that last one was none of those things, I just love strategy RPGsOriginally Posted by Kyasubaru
Sony is at least already thinking along these lines, with their "Playstation Suite" software running on Android. It's basically the PSP operating system retooled to be used on Android phones/tablets. Right now they say it'll only do PS1 games, but that'll change eventually:
Xperia Playstation Phone Detailed
Playstation Games Coming to Android Phones
And as for the quality of tablet games as compared to DS and PSP, well... There are quite a lot of minigames for the DS, you know? But have you seen Infinity Blade or Need for Speed? Or if you skew more toward RPGS, how about Inotia? Or you could just jailbreak and run emulators.). I imagine tablet game development would skew toward the casual, while most of the games I really like aren't.

It's the greatest fantasy series ever written; I can wait for GRRM to finish it. He is not my *****, after all.

Quote:This is an understatement. From what I've seen an iPad does everything better than a smart-phone, except for telephony (obviously), playing music, and GPS navigation. Email, games, web-browsing, most apps... these are categorically better on a large display. You lose portability, but you get much more functionality in return.Originally Posted by Cass_
My point is that any smart phone does those thing and is also your mobile, the only advantage, the only reason to have any of these tablets is for the larger display, which is good for document reading.
You don't need to believe Tablets are the Next Big Thing™ for it to be true... they are.
What I fear for is dedicated mobile gaming machines, like the 3DS and PSP. When almost everyone has a tablet and can buy Angry Birds for $5, who's going to to pay $35 for a DS cart or PSP whatever-it-is-they-play? If the quality of games for tablets was equal to the DS and PSP, I wouldn't care, but I don't think we're there yet. Pokemon would be nice on the iPad, though.

I wish I was.

I'm sorry I could only last three times with you, Voo. Sounds like you needed some Vitamin MG on that last run.
Next week will suck, but the week after will be awesome! -

Apex has to be the best WTF so far! Voo, are you going to do 4 again tonight? -
Glee's not on tonight, so I'll take Major's spot if he can't make it for the First Apex!
-
I have to say, since I mostly run on Voodoo brand teams, I don't see these issues, but I think it's a good sign. All this n00bery means that we're either getting new players, or old players who haven't played in a while.

In for Second Tuesday and probably both Wednesdays.
-
So... how did Isos go?
-
Bah... needs more Doom, Flux.

Quote:I will... Sister P just isn't as fun, even if the last mish of Mantis is a mizzle fizzle. Plus, I have plenty of Villains who need this, and Red gets no love.Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
For those interested, I leave it up to majority rule. Will YOU do two runs if it's Mantis???

Quote:But what about the bonus merits?Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
Not even bothering with Target runs on most other characters because they don't need (nor do I want) the notices on them past the Rare.

Quote:Wait... are you talking about the WTF? I thought that was a permanent feature.Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
I don't think it's going away any time soon. I got the feeling it will be a standard ongoing thing for at least the rest of the year?

I'll be on the late run for Tuesday if there is one, and the regular Wednesday run.

Quote:Now, now, GP... everyone knows Stalkers are incapable of contributing to a team... just ask Hamster.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
No, no. When Major plays a Stalker, he actually contributes to the team.

PL meh.
I'm proud of you, Major. -
A love there is no cure for?

I think of "Think" by Information Society.
