What type of game are you planning? And on what day? I've already got a couple of games on my schedule.

There haven't been many good finds outside of older (as in pre-2004 versions) football and basketball games where I live. I do know that I can get LOTR: The Two Towers for about $2.00, though. otherwise, not much for less than $10.00

If you mean RPGs as in D&D, I'd try OpenRPG. It's got a pretty good system, with the ability for maps and miniatures. It's hard as hell to find a decent Star Wars Saga Edition character sheet, though...

I personally prefer the ones where you play as a singular force, rather than just as a single officer. As for the numbers, I have played IV, VII, IX, X, and XI, and have enjoyed all of them in some way. VII and X are the ones of those that have play as an officer, as does VIII (which I haven't played.) I'm really enjoying XI.

I hope that made sense, I've got a concert I'm going to, so I need to type fast.

Nice to see I jogged your memory!

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI: Two years into the Battle of Guan Du scenario as Sun Ce, I've just began a great military campaign. Liu Bei, deferring to the game's bug on having the force in a certain city attack a port hundreds of miles away, has been killed in the resulting naval battle, as has Guan Ping, the heir apparent to the new ruler.

My attacks on Cao Cao to the north has resulted in me ruling Ru Nan, within striking distance of the castle in which the Han Emperor is held. In that attack, I have killed Cao Cao's eldest living son, as well.

So, I'm not doing too bad.

They're not that obscure, but suppose they count since they just popped up in my head and no one really ever talks about them anywhere...

Uncharted Waters: New Horizons

This game was fucking immense. Numerous interconnecting characters and storylines. Deep and rich gameplay. Be a pirate, be a trader, get revenge for your father, pay off your depts, explore the new world! It was all awesome.

Aerobiz: Supersonic

I don't know why but I immensely enjoyed this game as a kid. It was incredibly fun.

Rock 'N Roll Racing

Blizzard before they were Blizzard, and an awesome fucking soundtrack, some cool tracks and characters... Olaf > All.

The Comic Book Urban Legend columns at CBR are amazingly good. I ran across them yesterday quite by accident while I was looking for the second part of The One More Day Joe Quesada Five Part Interview. So yeah, some very interesting things in these columns.

Went to see the Meat Puppets last night. My mom went with me since she's a fan of the band, too. It's been about a year since the two brothers that formed the core of the band reunited with a new drummer, and their new album was pretty good. They really didn't play anything off of the new album if I remember correctly, and the newest song they played was off of the lead guitarist/lead singer's solo album that was released last year. They mainly stuck with the classic songs.

The crowd wasn't very big, so I was able to get extremely close to the stage.

In a few hours: Nebraska Cornhuskers @ Missouri Tigers.

#25 Nebraska (4-1) #17 Missouri (4-0)

I have to go with Mizzou. The Texas guy at QB, the SUSPECT 'black shirt' D at Nebraska, and a Freshman playmaker for the Tigers. In Mizzou ... they get this one in revenge for that what '98 game they should have won.

I have been meaning to get into Star Wars Legacy recently, but I have busy trying to catch up on the actual Star Wars books rather than comics. I have some of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic tradebacks, but thats about it.

Is Legacy really worth the read before I decide to invest in looking for the first couple of issues?

Picked up the new Star Wars Legacy today and was amazed by it.

Since I lost my memory cards (including my FFVII and IX files that were fucking shit hot) Im thinking of starting one of them again. So.....VII, IX or X?

Interesting how C-MIL is replaying FFIX after a while when I'm doing the exact same thing. I hope it goes better than my last time of replaying a PSX Final Fantasy, when FFVII quit halfway through the second disk and I kept getting DREs from my PS2.

At the moment, I'm on the third disk when you go to Ipsen's Castle. I'm currently at lvl. 46 with Zidane, but Quina, Freya, Eiko, and Amarant need to be leveled up after misusing them. The part where Steiner and Freya were gone from the party for about 1/2 a disk was very annoying, too. Thankfully, I have the Level-Up skill.

I also just started playing FFIV, as well. not a lot of progress to report on that, though. I'm at the very beginning.

Living in America, no matter your stats, is easy as hell. The game's starting to get somewhat repetitive. If you stay in school and devote your time to studying, eventually you can emigrate to America and the rest of your life is easy. FYI, if you just leave your family, you have so much more money to spend

Jubilee not only has new powers, but....um....how can I put this?

She's developed. And how.

issent zombiissem (in the horrormovie sens) an infection? If i have aids and bite you you´ll likly be "infected" aswell.

come a little closer

The "original" zombies in a movie like, say, Night Of The Living Dead, are just reanimated corpses that can turn a human by biting. So, in a way, it's an infection. But in a way, it's also not.

I'm sure this has been covered in the topic, but know of any sites that I can get some books?

Recent and some old school stuff would be nice. The place I have by me is downright awful.

Thanks guys.

A few more that kinda sprung to mind that you may enjoy:

Sublime

Sonic Youth

Collective Soul

Blind Melon

One band that sadly hasn't been mentioned are the Meat Puppets. I'd pick up Too High To Die and Forbidden Places. It's their best albums of the 90's.

Listen to Mad Season's "Long Gone Day" and then to Godsmack's Voodoo. Very similar-sounding riffs imo.

Buffy's a good comic. I rather liked it.

Got a free comic today. Entered into a Dark Horse contest and won a free copy of Usagi Yojimbo #100. The rabbit samurai is awesome!

I was spoiled by the news. Just once I'd like to be surprised. Just once.
