I actually own one of the Alienware models. I bought it as a splurge during tax season, along with a 28" TV, which works great as a monitor. What I have is the low-end model, which IMHO, is pretty decent for running MMO's and older games (I'm able to play alongside my wife for some LOTRO and WOW...

*sigh* It wouldn't be a day in 'Murica if someone wasn't flipping their shit over something, lame or otherwise. From my perspective, I've seen some of Manara's works and 1)it has changed very little since he got into the industry many years ago, and 2) compared to the Spider-Woman cover, it is...

I'm one of those 'old guard' types that you hear popping up on those new-fangled 'forums' now and again (don't see why they had to take down CompuServe; their BBS's were perfectly adequate at 2400 baud...you people get off my quote!!! :p) OK I'm digressing, it's a very boring day here in my...

Well, on the one hand, that's good news. I know that it is my wife's second favorite series (after LotR). I know she'll be happy to hear it. On the other hand, it's being done by Warner Brosthers, so corporate policy dictates that Batman must have the lead role, as he rides around on his...

The basic rules have a very short list of spells, compared to previous editions. That being said, judging from the free module that Frog God Games put out to do its part of OHMYGERD ITS THE GREATEST GAME EVAR!!!!1!!!!, all you need is about 3 gaming sessions and you'll have enough XP to be 20th...

From what it looks like, I would say that 3 magic items is the most that you can be 'attuned' to at any one time. If it were to apply only to artifacts and such, WoTC would have said it straight away, to keep it from being too vague. So, 1 armor, 1 weapon, and 1 'other' (As a guess, I would...

It's not that they want Dark Knight profit levels, they want The Avenger level profits, which was about 2x the size, but again, rather unrealistic.

I would love to see WB/DC finally figure out what to do with their rather large stable of superheroes NOT named Bat-something or other (what's the name of that character?). I mean, Marvel came out with Iron Man, not exactly as well known as say Spider-Man, but obviously not bottom of the barrel...

I'm guessing that I'll get banned for this, but as a rule, I do use adblock. While I can appreciate Jim's stance on it, and, since he asked very nicely, I may try to add his videos to my white list; the ads that are placed on here and other places are getting worse and worse. It's clear that...
