Well this sounds handy: http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Complete_Arsenal

There are a lot of great games on this list, so in the interest of not repeating what's already been said, here are are few which have yet to be mentioned that are worthy of being on this list IMHO: Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain- PS1, very well voice-acted, deep story, and a nice mix of...

Well when a user loves a running process very much, he can fork it, exec'ing a child process which inherits its environment from the parent process but overlays the new program it exec'ed to.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I think it is silly for Shamus to have to defend his. I have played NWN2, both the NWN2 expansions, KotOR2, Alpha Protocol, and Fallout New Vegas. There were bugs in all of these games, but none so bad to halt my progress. Would I like better QA...

Excellent point Megido. A more concise statement than my first draft reply.

1. Paragon, went the hero route first play-through. 2. Saved Ash, she and my femShep spacer traded navy-brat stories, where Kaiden was always trying to flirt. 3. Saved the Rachni, genocide is not paragon. 4. Fell for Liara, that innocent, wise, and obsessed with me thing was too irresistible.

Nice review marter. I may have to buy Heavy Rain now. I guess I will need to print the good cover: http://playstation.joystiq.com/2010/02/23/psa-print-some-not-terrible-heavy-rain-box-art/

Lulzy is well on her way to epic minstrel. Well done Shamus.

I missed the Mako a lot. Scanning was meh, even in small doses. The best part of scanning in ME2 in my opinion is that it inspired "Those Minerals" by Kabuto the Python: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJb9mCnJWgs

I am looking forward to Heavy Rain, just because it reminds me of Shenmue, which was awesome.

Back in 2005 Mike and Jerry had a similar report on Lumines: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/3/25/ There is the usual dose of swear-words if that sort of thing offends you.

The "impossible" was easier for me, got 100% on first try. The normal I was 9/10 on first try, but it took seven tries to figure out the battle for middle earth II question. The first one sucked so bad I never even thought of playing the second.

All great stuff, but I can't believe there is not more love for NWN. That game had it all. D&D 3.0 ruleset, toolset to make your own modules, server (even a linux version!!) so you could self-host multiplayer games, a DM client to run just like table top, scripting and databases to run...
