    D&D Classes.

    Rightio, haven't played much 4e, but I do happen to have the book on hand, so here we go: If he gets a re-roll if someone sees him, is he using the level 6 at-will Chameleon? If so, have a good read of the ability. They have one full round from when they are spotted (that is, until the start...

    D&D Classes.

    Edition? Level? Other characters? Almost all problems like this are either a mis-interpretation of a rule, or a character getting access to equipment far above their level. More info, and I'll see if I can help. OT: Rogue or Cleric (3.5e). Access to lots of skills as rogue, or a huge variety...

    Al Gore Lauds Ecological Potential Of Games

    lulwat? The general thinking by people who to prefer to close their eyes and cover their ears and pretend there's no problems. The same people who will spout how many scientists disagree with this theory of climate change, rather than looking at what the scientific community, as a whole, is...

    Problem with Mass Effect 2 (I guess there are some spoilers in this)

    From The Wiki [http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Mass_Effect_2_Guide] Biotic Specialist Ideal: Samara/Morinth or Jack. Non-Ideal: Anyone else. Doing so will result in one of your squadmates being carried off by a Collector swarm. Fire-team Leader Ideal: Garrus, Jacob, or Miranda. Note...

    308: Ethics Without a Net

    As mentioned, it is very difficult for a game to judge a player's intent, and without intent, how can you judge morality? My current playthough of New Vegas is with a character in it for the caps, yet because a majority of the quests are to help people, he's become "Very Good". His main way to...

    This is Lebron James' $171,000 bill after a night out at the bar

    The only thing to complain about there is how anyone can justify selling/buying bud light for $9.00 a pop... or drinking it, for that matter.

    Michael Atkinson's Successor Will Push for R18+ Ratings

    No, no, no. Rau has suggest making such a large gap between the two ratings of M and R will make parents "Better Informed". Such a statement is practically on par with religion (my apologies to religious people, if I am indirectly attacking religious organisations and church structures, I...

    Poll: If you only buy one, which will it be....Modern Warfare 3 or Battlefield 3?

    Agreed. It all boils down to personal preference, of course, but I didn't like how Activision handled the multiplayer in MW2. I much prefered how Bad Company played, and will definately be going that way again when BC3 comes out. Might hire out MW3 and give it a whirl, but I can't see myself...

    Poll: What is the answer to 48/2(9+3)?

    lol, that's the thing with engineers. We learn all this maths, and then our first reaction if we're at a computer is "Get the computer to do it"

    Poll: What is the answer to 48/2(9+3)?

    I will defer to you here, and suggest the context becomes important as interpretations change between fields. In engineering, we're influenced by programming in this kind of notation, and most programming languages (off the top of my head) would lead to a answer of 288, since they evaluate...

    Poll: What is the answer to 48/2(9+3)?

    Interesting that you mention the implied grouping. In all the mathematics that I've done, the implication has been the reverse. That is, that the implied grouping is around the term immediately before and immediately after the division symbol. a/b sin(c) = (a/b)*sin(c) =/= a/(b*sin(c))...

    Mortal Kombat banned in Australia

    My bad. I'm just well and truly sick of Aussies seriously complaining about this issue, specifically those who treat this as something of greater importance than the multitude of issues that we face. But yeah, I agree it's pretty backwards - but considering that most games that should be RC'd...

    Mortal Kombat banned in Australia

    This. Seriously OP, a shitty censorship system has become a part of the Australian media landscape, we've had plenty of time to get used to it. I'll tell you what I do in the middle of summer when stuff like this happens? I go to the beach. I grab lunch and go out for a picnic or a long walk...

    *sigh* New Vegas Bugs, specifically those with ED-E and Arcade Gannon [Spoilers, I guess]

    Right, so I've run across two bugs, that together, are super frustrating: I've lost ED-E. Either in Vault 22, or between there, the Hidden Bunker and the Follows' Outpost. Its marker is on Vault 22, but I cannot see it on any local map on any level of the vault, or outside it. Level...

    Good split screen games for the 360

    Left 4 Dead plays pretty well co-op, and you can pick it up pretty cheap.
