  1. The subscription cost is only half of my problem with MMOs. I like to play a game at my own pace and skill level (i happen to think i'm a pretty good all round gamer) but with an MMO, i cant really jump on occasionally because all of the other players (this is assuming they are on a lot more like in WoW) will be 20+ levels ahead of me and kick my ass. Games like the battlefield series aren't too bad because you can get your unlockables relatively early on and develop your skills in the first few days and then just hop on whenever you feel like it and not have to worry about getting a super high levelled super wepon dude pull a BFG9000 to the face too much.

    I guess i just dont like the idea of "having" to go into the game just to keep myself in contention. Maybe i'm wrong. And lets not forget that we call WoW "the plague" for a reason... i like playing online very occasionally.. i just cant deal with all the whinning and crap.

  2. As much as i really (and i do mean REALLY) want another Kotor game, this is still a moneysuckingrootofallevilsaygoodbyetoyoursexlifemmorpg which i just cant get behind. I just cant justify the whole MMO thing. I guess that there is now no chance of a single player (or multiplayer) offline kotor. :unsure:

  3. Need some advice on a future purchase.... I'm not really a Gundam fan but i love the idea of the PG kits and would like to get one purely on the basis that i like the technical detail and size of them.

    i've been looking at a strike rouge but cant find any decent english reviews of it. anyone here got one and built it themselves that would like to share their thoughts?

    also considered the strike or Mk. II AEUG (but heard the hip joint is rubbish).

    thanks in advance.

  4. Damn, I need to go to the UK! All this time I passed up on traveling there since it didn't have an exotic allure... now that I know there are sweet vintage and rare toys lurking there I might have to change my tune.

    Yup.. more hidden vintage stuff than you might think.. i found minty taka 1/55 VF-1S(FP) a couple of years ago for £6 (about $12ish), and when i say minty, i mean brand new. Like from a shop, not second hand. :ph34r:

  5. Just had the most awsome of ideas... ok, stay with me on this one.

    .... ask... Michael Keaton to play the Joker!!! hang on a sec... think about it. Not only do you have the interesting past batman thing, just think of Keaton's joker like Beetlejuice! how cool would that be?

    "i've seen the Exorcist about 167 times, and keeps getting funnier, every, single time!"

  6. Agreed Eugi.

    In Fact, (sorry to go O/T) the thread in question (hikuru doll pics) was locked and one of the mods showed what i thought was shocking behaviour by posting his final comment directed at the guilty parties which was fine, but then decided he hadn't had enough and posted another final blast a short while later. I know its a mods priviledge to post in a locked thread, but it read badly in his favour. like "ha, you must read what i say and no you cant post a retort at all because you cant post in a locked thread" I was actually on the fence until then... i was so angry i almost pm'd him to tell him that the last post was too far and unnecessary. So who mods the mods?

    anyway, i am sorry for going off on one here. I agree with a temp ban for the one word/smiley spam posts and and the extra account thing was very foolish of him. As mentioned by someone else previously, what actually does my head in is reading one yamato vs. bandai debate, it fade away... a couple of pages later it the same goddamn debate... how about people that should learn to read previous post before re-hashing the same arguments posting the same crap time after time? Like i said before, THE JOG WHEEL IS YOUR FREIND!

  7. I agree with Totoro... while there may sometimes be too many one word/emoticon replies (we're all guilty occasionally), Ryan is a genuine stand up guy and has contributed alot more than spam to these boards in his short time here. i miss him already. I had a sneaking suspision that it was him that turned up a couple of days ago with a new account and almost pm'd to ask/warn him!

    As for constant spam, computer mice have jog wheel for a reason :p

    temporary ban, yes. permanant, i vote no. I hope he sorts things out with the mods.
