So, in a fit of impulse buying to offset my homicidal/suicidal birthday ideations, went out and bought a custom rig.  i7 quad core, dual GEForce cards, more horsepower than I will need for at least 4 years.

I'm seng colora and textures I've never seen before. :cry:

Hopefully from the latest generation. And do download MSI's rather great little program Afterburner for fan control and such.

Turn on the biggest textures and 1080p resolution on the doctor when you see him.

Working through "A Quest for Heaven esp1" in FO3. Excellent so far. [spoiler]Just started SA-23 currently. So far Nexus 5 had me on edge most.  :lol: Got to love a well made game environment that can do that.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Because I was Lvl 8, I had to infiltrate past the Super Mutant area to get to tracking command. I wouldnt survive in a stand-up fight against them. It took little over an hour actual time with Recon Armor/ Fire Ant Necture / Terrian while doing it at night. Sometimes just inching forward. It was fucking awesome. My daughter was looking on saying, "Are you going to do anything"  :lol: "Your barely moving"[/spoiler]

Glad you enjoying it.  There is a spot or two in each episode where the combat gets kinda ridiculous, but the story is always gripping.

Ep 1 is the most puzzle-heavy, in terms of figuring out which switch does what.  I am not sure whether the gradual move to more "figure out the story" rather than "find the switch" came about because of the unfortunate demise of the woman who started the series, or whether that was planned, but you will enjoy the change. Keep us posted.

IMO this mod outshines any of the games or DLC quests, with the exception of The Pitt. They should hire this individual for quest work on the next one.

[spoiler]I currently just started in the vault with the big airlock door. Very creepy place along with the survivors. I dont get creeped easily but this place is doing it. [/spoiler]

I'm absolutely in love with AC2. I just spent one hour just travelling around Venice, I didn't think one could catch Stendhal's syndrome by playing a videogame.

Been bored lately.  Thinking of getting Vicky II.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

If you do - pretty key to have the expansions.

Trailer for Firefly Online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y98otfH9X8

It looks very retro (and with iOS and Android listed as release platforms it's no surprise), but looking at this makes me a lot giddier than I'm supposed to be about it. :blush:

Commander: The Great war is now on Steam. I thought I had it, but it appears I was mistaken. I did notice that I have a copy of American Civil War II that I never installed, though. :unsure:

I discovered the Internet in Civ IV (no scribes allowed) and the icon is a picture of Al Gore.  :lol:
