Funny thing: I had KOTOR as a kid on Xbox but the disc was scratched and it froze unfailingly during the cut scene when you escape the starting world. Thus I never got past that point. I bought it on iPad recently because it was half off but i haven't started yet. Doesn't seem to have aged that well, but then again,… Read more

Yeah, also, the controls were terrible. Never played the originals unfortunately. Read more

Can't disagree there. These days, with my save file so big, it takes around four minutes to load. And way back when I lost big files when they would freeze in the middle of saving. This was before I got wise and started making multiple save files. Read more

Can't we all just get along? Side not: I saw Camera in LA recently. Tracyanne was unenthusiastic but I guess that's kind of part of her schtick. It was a good show nonetheless. Read more

He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unBelieber. Ahem, I meant believer. Read more

OH this is great. Highlights: Read more

What about "Heavy Armor"? *snicker* Read more

The strongholds for Hlaalu and Redoran just always seemed so lame - and their squabbles were petty when compared with the machinations of the ancient Telvanni wizards (and that's saying something, considering I remember several Telvanni quests about a pair of pants or something). Read more

I can relate. And thanks. Yeah, I have the overhaul installed on my PC, and I play it obsessively for a couple days every once in a while. Read more

Oh god, did I forget to mention him? BRB, editing article.. Read more

I accept your hat tip and respond with a flourish of my cane. Read more

Can't really recommend Morrowind if you're not an Oblivion/Skyrim fan, unless you have a ton of patience. Of the three, it's the hardest to get into, but ultimately the most rewarding by far. Much, much, much more freedom and variety than the other two. Read more

This…is extremely useful. To be honest, it's been years since I actually looked for a way to do this. Thank you! Read more

Agreed. "Airing" caught my attention in a big way but it was "The Monitor" that really cemented Patrick as a genius to me. I have seen them live, actually, around a dozen times - I lived in Boston before moving to LA, and they toured a ton while I was in college. Read more

I'm flattered. My feelings for TA go way past "like," though. I'm sure you can relate. Read more

Exactly. Read more

If that's the case then I stand corrected, and it seems the film deserves further praise for actually looking better than its budget. I still think the writing/plot was like hitting a nail with a semi-truck though. Read more

Voice recognition could be used for all sorts of things that aren't specifically navigational voice commands. It could even be used for voice commands within specifics games without system-wide commands being implemented. In other words the technology could be in there without the functionality. Read more

I loved ZombiU. I still play the multiplayer when I have friends over and we're bored. Read more
