I pursued romantic options in DA:O, but in Dragon Age 2, I really don't care. See, in DA:O I played a noble Rogue, an embodiment of virtue, trying to appeal to everybody and to do "the right thing".

In Dragon Age 2, I make excessive use of the smartass dialogue option, offending people left and right and generally having a good time. I don't care if I miss out on any romantic options just because I give a snarky comment every time.
@RenegadeLobster: You are a sad boy. I feel sorry for you.
@bellil: Did you watch the season 6 trailer? The Ood actually return, and maybe the whole Timelord Victorious storyline gets picked up again.

This is one thing I don't like about Moffat at the helm - some old stories just get left behind.
@KillerIri5h: I want a grey Mastiff and I will call him Mouse.
@Quest: Not really funny. I'm no Australian, but I find mockery distasteful.
Nice! I read "Mind you this is an MSN vid, so there might be a commercial for Canada or something before the teaser runs." before watching the vid.

The video began to play, I saw the tri-ocular night vision goggles and thought "Meh, no Canada ad, but some Splinter Cell Conviction GOTY Edition or something... wtf, was that Batman!?"

Hell yeah.
After years of use I recently learned two things about PowerPoint that made my presentation life much, much easier.

1.) Just press "b" to black out the screen. This is so useful, and yet so simple, I cannot believe it at first.

Whenever a presentations develops into a useful discussion, just turn the slide black. Looks professional and smooth.

2.) If you want to skip to slide 23 and are still on slide 10, just type "2" "3" "Enter" - and don't click-click-click through a whole bunch of charts your audience wonders why they will never see them. Absolutely smooth if you have a printout of your presentation with you, so you can look up the slide number and skip a whole bunch of content, without your audience even noticing.
@Mlata: I agree completely. And I really don't get the often quoted "need" to protect ones family.

I've never been to the US, but you get the idea that it's a constant warzone out there.

Where I live, next to nobody has a gun. And noone needs one, either. And people still feel safe at home.
@Fata1moose: If you 100% a complete sequence, cheats are unlocked. You can then use these cheats while replaying old memories.

But the cheats are quite uninteresting. Invulnerability, all Brotherhood Assassins are female, everybody has an "Assassino" rank ... that sort of thing.

The only thing that sounds interesting is gained while 100%ing sequence one: Swords glow and horses become unicorns. The other stuff sounds meh.
@Taggart6: Actually, that sounds great!

Imagine a "shooter in the dark" game where one has a gun, another has a flashlight, and you have to work together to survive.

Nice!
@Futhark: Brustwarzen.

Oh. I see what you did there.

But seriously, we also say "Nippel", which very close phonetically.
I often talk about how certain words "sound" like the thing they stand for.

For example "joy" or "bubbles" ... or "wrath" and "deceit".

I am German and one of the most prominent examples for this is our word for "betrayer": "Verräter". An ugly word, but I like it.
Great. Can we have a new Wing Commander, too? Please?
I don't have a problem with cheaters. I just don't want to have to play with them.

Maybe they shouldn't ban or reset these people at all. Maybe they should just set a permanent "cheater" flag on their account. And in matchmaking, I could then easily tell the system to not allow "cheaters" to join my game.

Let them play amongst themselves.
I bought the Blu-Ray boxed set of the specials of the 10th Doctor. Great stuff.

One late evening, after having watched one of the movies, I took a look at the extras. There was "Doctor Who: At the Proms". Never heard of it and I just wanted to take a look.

It was fabulous. I went to bed late, late that night because I had to watch the whole thing.
Ooooh! Pretty!

Now which one to get? The Razer Onza or this beautiful piece of pad?
@paranoidmarv: I played the game at Gamescom and I can tell you, the action-oriented gameplay is completely optional. I still used the left trigger to pause the game and select commands for my party, like I did in Dragon Age Origins.
@Kurokawa: That is not demon. It is a Qunari, one of the horned kind, unlike Sten. A very powerful Qunari, though.
@Sakilla: I could also try Move and cannot advise buying it.

Heavy Rain with Move controls was GREAT! But the new Move enabled SOCOM game wasn't really great.

I thought that the big advantage of Move is how precise it is. But I couldn't hit ANYTHING in the Socom demo, the target recticle was all over the place and next to impossible to control. I thought my unit was miscalibrated, but I tried others and the results were the same. I also tried another shooting game, one of the "casual" titles, I forgot what it was called.

Move seems to be good for Wii-like pointing action, but you really don't have any fine control, like they said beforehand.
