Nah, I nearly had it on a few attempts. I think I can get it done with a little more practice

So I picked up the 4pack from GOG and I'm loving XWA. I'm struggling a bit with the first mission with the Rebellion though. I think I've now got my strategy sorted though. Turns out ignoring the convoy escorts is a bad idea, then when I finally decided to take them out first, the convoy escaped...

My first thought "But she is wearing pants!" Second "Oh, American pants." Third "I'm pretty sure I wouldn't bother dressing up for my hallucinations."

That may be true, but there's something a lot more "real" about 2 people, a camera, and some humpin', than 2+ people, 1 or more cameras, a film crew, multiple takes, shot transitions, etc. etc. It just seems more genuine.

I desperately want it to be good. I'm going to try and go into it with no expectations though. I'd like to see less flashy lightsabre choreography, and more of a focus on character interaction in duels. I'd like to see a plot that makes some god damn sense, and isn't a rehash of the OT.

So I've played 1, MW1-3, WaW, BlOps 1&2, and Ghosts (didn't buy that one, borrowed it from my sister. dodged a bullet there) I'd say the best one, from my memory, was either CoD4 or WaW. Hard to pin down exactly why, but those were the ones I felt most involved in, the ones where I actually...

You got the wrong wingman. Biggs died in the Battle of Yavin, Wedge survived both Death Star attacks. So, I got no comment on this whole situation, other than, why wouldn't there be gays in the Star Wars universe? I'm gonna buy the book, see if it's any good, see if these gay characters are...

I like him, he makes a lot of informative stuff. Don't agree with him on everything, and he comes across as a bit of a dick sometimes, but the same applies with my best friend. Love the co-optional podcast, even if it is a touch lengthier than I'd prefer. Certainly my go-to guy for information...

I was so excited when I heard they were making a new Battlefront. But every god damn thing I've heard since then has made me so bloody furious. No space battles, no classes, map pick-up activated vehicles, no story mode, no galactic conquest, and now, no fucking servers either. I think it's...

You know, I really hoped this involved the 501st marching into the school and laying down some imperial justice. A man(-child) can dream. I might have to look into joining the UK Garrison of the 501st. Not sure if I can justify the cost of a TIE pilot outfit though. In the spirit of...

You guys (Americans) really need to sort out your mental health situation. I know a lot of you (for some impossible to fathom reason) don't like the idea of socialised health care that's free at the point of use, but in the case of mental health, it's incredibly important. A lot of people with...

You should also stop literally taking my things. That's bad. Stop it.

Personally, I feel this place could do with some new blood. I want new people who don't have grudges, sides or cliques and just want to talk about video games. I'm gonna go start a thread I think, not sure what about yet, get some conversation going.

Once every few days. If I could grow a full beard, I would. As it stands, my facial hair is pathetic. I only seem to grow hair on my upper lip, neck, and sideburns, and not a decent amount either. The hairs are too few and far between to ever look good, but fortunately aren't too visible, so I...

I swear, DOOM will run on any electronic device with a screen. There is always someone prepared to port it. Do we have DOOM running on any space probes yet? NASA, get on it!
