AT ALL, or very little? My Jack and Mordin were used for maybe 10 mins outside of their loyalty missions, and they lived. Basically just enough to allocate their skill points. (and weren't chose to do anything in the final battle)

Same here. My personal theory is it all depends on if you got him to sing or not.

Well, Iranian would be about the only possible scheme to make it physically more wrong that it is. PS--retool? Not in a million years. They didn't make it right for the COMMANDER OF THE JOLLY ROGERS' plane to start with, and that would have been free to tool the first time. You think they'd exert more effort and money for this scheme?

According to that link, it's still unknown/random for Mordin. Which is the one a lot of people are having problems with.

I think the ship's fuel upgrade should count too. If you read the dsecription, it's not really a "fuel" upgrade---it's a better thruster system that's more efficient/effective---and it specifically says it leads to better manueverability due to faster reaction times----thus, Joker could certainly make use of it.

Ack, how could I forget jumpers? I was *so* paranoid about setting them up on this PC.

CPU fully inserted? Each generation seems to take more force IMHO. (which seems to be the WRONG way for a design trend)

All the pre-release stuff/discussion had Jack as being psycho. She's not. She's just angry. If she was psycho or something, she'd have been much more interesting. She has no mental problem from her experiences other than rage it seems. She doesn't have a split personality, some rigourous habit, a fetish for something odd, or anything.

You gotta take Jack? I knew there had to be SOME conversation about the bathroom somehow.

BTW, Energon Bruticus did have an awesome combination sequence. Certainly the coolest head-transformation of all combiners ever animated IMHO. (only good/HD copies seem to be the JP versions)

I'm still waiting for some colored samples---I have the orignal release of that mold (which is actually more G1-ish in some cases than the ROTF version) and am wondering how the colors are going to work. Also, there'll have to be nothing else I want for like a month on each side surrounding their release. Also, having Blast-Off's tailfin turn into a knife how it does really hurts how vehicle mode looks. Surely there's a better-looking way to do that, than the really weird-looking fin upper edge with a cut-out and a big round hinge. PS---I'd be happy to trade/sell my Energon "orange helicopter" if someone needs it to complete a Bruticus or something. ::edit:: IIRC, there was some confusion on names between the choppers, and that it seemed Hasbro got them swapped or something. My memory and the wikis are conflicting, but seibertron.com seems to agree with me. PPS--if I'd had a time machine, I'd have known to buy the two tanks instead of two helicopters, and I could mix parts and have a nearly perfectly G1-colored-Brawl to use now.

Another new ep tonight, continues from the last. I don't like the new duchess(?) character. SW doesn't seem to be able to make "female royalty" that isn't a generic clone of the "short, action-packed-rebel-Leia" variety. Started with Padme and just continues. Bring back Luminara. Or more bounty hunters.

Xeno-----blade? http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/sx4j/index.html Monolith's developing it. But for the Wii? That goes against the whole "high-end visuals" theme they like (they're like Square in that regard). Does look like it has giant organic mecha...

That's the first report I've heard of that combination of choices/results.

Now THAT's interesting. I don't think I've ever seen an asymmetrical SEAD load for an F-16.

From what I've read, the biggest factor is actually what you say not what you do. You can either pick "need to be ready" (or whatever) or "we go now". Note that saying to "go now" doesn't instantly take you there, you can still actually go other places with the galaxy map. You still don't want to do more than 1 or 2 missions, but saying to wait guarantees at least 1 death even if you "change your mind" and head straight there 30 secs later.

Is that from Karpyshyn's blog or something? I don't recall seeing that in the books nor on the Bioware boards, though I haven't read Revelations in a while.

I think that happened to me, too. I just didn't recall that little follow-up moment (happens when you play multi-hour stretches vs small chunks), and must not have checked loyalty often enough to see it go down then up again. Though for me, I justify it by saying (to myself) THAT too was a lie, as I'd never have Shep lie to Tali.

Cory---you'll note I never capitalize quarian etc. I was actually expecting someone to call me out on it, so it could be explained without preaching/getting on a soapbox. But Prothean is capitalized? Doesn't that go against the rule?

The F-35 is officially "comparable to" the F-16 in agility. And if it was .0001% better in some part of the envelope, you know the official word would be that it was "superior to" the F-16. Anyways---I think the nations that are going to have the ASRAAM as the main missile for the F-35 have the right idea. As for F-16 looks---uber-fugly hump-backed UAE (and Greek and Israeli) ones don't count.

Yup. I think a lot of people went after Tali first, as she was a "known" character and we'd been waiting to get her. I'll get Legion as early as possible next time.

Looks are everything when it comes to public perception of how bad-ass a plane is. F-16 wins there.

My guess is it is. I'll do the opposite with my Paragon.

I took Tali for Legion's loyalty mission--figured it'd be a learning experience for her. Nevermind the fact that she's the also best anti-geth character in all of ME. (AI hacking and shield drain, hello)

I did the same, but I don't remember a "getting even" comment. Then again, I read that scene/outcome will often result in loss of loyalty for him, but it didn't for mine---maybe my Shep was influential enough to change it?
