Nicely put, that made me laugh. I was going to 'Thank' you but it shut me down. Gotta Thank a few other first I guess.

Easily one of my favourite parts in the game. Absolutely amazing.

Gives rise to the expression, 'pick up your sack' (to quit moaning and get on with it). Less often mentioned is that he was knocked out that same game and didn't finish it. They also filmed the stiching on live TV.

Not a bad strategy. I had Oghren, who was useless, myself as the tank, and Morrigan and Wynne as healers and rangers. As I said, it was down to pure luck in the end.

Just finished it, and the Archdemon was pretty easy. I had my elven army and the ballistas to help. I went for a tank onslaught with me, Alistair and Sten, with Wynne as healer and ranger.

I can't wait to watch more Dexter. It is killing me! (Well, sort of...)
Chuck season 4? Again, must... exercise... patience!

Wow, what a great present! My family is famously bad at choosing presents. Like, I'd ask for something simple like a mechanical pencil and some paints. The fated birthday looms and what do I get? A three hundred dollar sound system with speakers. (If you know me at all, you know I'm notoriously cheap and get angry at blatant wastes of moola, I'm also a bit of a music-crab. I'll hum the tune after I hear it once, but I don't like hypnotizing myself with the same stuff multiple times) And we were strapped for cash then, too.
I couldn't ask them to return it, that would've meant I was ungrateful (which I was, btw), I much would've preferred they'd forgotten the occasion. Urgh, Worst. B-day. ever.

Haha, Dont! Rocky VI wasn't that great. Best to preserve the goodness in its untouched state. Rambo V, on the other hand, was shrug-worthy.
I've watched everything except for "The Usual Suspects", "Lucky Number Slevin" and "Memento" (my siblings have seen it and have been haranguing me about it for a long time) I know I should watch it, but I can't find the thing anywhere in the house. I'm beginning to suspect foul-play...
Snoring in the middle of a movie? Now that's rare...
HA! I wish my brothers were that way! Sit them down and they break the sound barrier! I would chew them out, but the largest of my little brothers has the remote and he actually pauses the film before inputting his and others' audio commentary, so now, not only am I forced to listen to his "Here's what I would've done with this scene" I have to stare between him, my other boisterous bros, and the frozen screen, as they do so.
He's not the worst one, though. The second brother is a habitual "ruiner" he watches the film before you do and then tells you what he enjoyed/hated about it. Whenever he brings up a movie I automatically have to shout "DON'T RUIN IT FOR ME!!!"
It's times like those I think about becoming a female hermit. (minus the long white beard)

She/it took me a good 10 tries, but ended up beating it with Wynne solo after my team went down. Don't ask how, but I put it down to huge amounts of luck and lyrium. I am nearly done now on my playthrough, I am now fighting the Archdemon.

I am expecting something like that being implimented in DAIII, hopefully. I love the assets part of ME3.

Avengers is definitely a good watch, but for some reason, I am yet to see Prometheus. Need to get on that quick!

Having played through it, I would have to agree with you. But seven years ago, my GameBoy and I were inseparable. I couldn't leave it when it had its bi-curious phase. All jokes aside, the game did have a fun moment or two. They were never moments that I wished would last forever, but it kept me entertained for a bit.

Nowadays, the game sits at the bottom of a coffee tin along with my GameBoy peripherals. My E-Reader, Wireless Adapters, Game Link Cable, etc. It's right next to its boyfriend Shrek: Reekin' Havoc (another disgustingly easy game).

Why what? Why did I play it? Two reasons. First, all I had at the time was a GameBoy Advance; and a game is a game, no matter how girly. Second, I had finished all my other GBA games at the time. I caught all my Pokemon, finished both games in FFI & II: Dawn of Souls, and completed Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga.

And yes, seriously.

The very pinnacle? I must watch at least one of those, then. (*ARGHH!* My cat is knocking stuff off the shelf behind me, what a little monster!)

I'm in total love with Dexter. It's amazing the troubles he gets into! And THEN, just when I think things are way too complicated to ever be fixed, they're suddenly fixed!

Chuck, season 3 is heating up!
House actor, Hugh Laurie was in California last month or so. My brother went to see him on stage. He used his English accent through most of the skit, but toward the end he went with the House character.
Scrubs is sort of my fallback. They're cheap second-hand and adequately funny.

Of course, you can ask questions at any time, dude. Questions are the key to the best of convos.
I like "Taken"
'TLOTR' series
The Fighter
Yes Man
Seven Samurai
Twilight Samurai
Running Out Of Time
The New Police Story
Vengeance
Rocky 4
Bangkok Dangerous (not the Nick Cage version)
Running scared
Batman: the dark night
Infernal Affairs
The Good, The Bad And The Ugly

I'll come up with a longer list, but for now I'll just list some recents. All the guy films I watch are usually with my brothers, (Yeah, I'm used to the macho, I love boxing films) while the girly ones are with my little sister, (who's nuts about them, btw). I recently watched: 'Basic' (with John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson), 'Three Kings' (George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, Ice Cube...) The Other Guys (Mark Wahlberg again, and Will Ferrel) I also saw 'Sleepless In Seattle', tonight I'm going to see 'Black Swan' with (you guessed it) my sis.

Sorry for the late response.
To be honest. I enjoyed Diablo III a lot more than I did Torchlight. Torchlight really captures Diablo I's atmosphere and play style. Which is great, but I feel you really get what you pay for. Some areas of the game just feel cheap.
Honestly though. I'd get both. Newer blizzard games require the online connection and it can be annoying, but they are just taking advantage of what a good majority of most gamers already have.

It's going really well this time around. I have just finished all the main quests for the Landsmeet. Spent most of that time on the Broodmother though! That bitch was difficult.

Not long until Dark Knight Rises comes out. I had not actually seen that trailer, and now I seriously can't wait.

I've never watched either of those. How agitating. What is Game of Thrones about?
I've been hooked on "Dexter" it's creepy, but I can so relate... (the only problem is I can't get my brothers to stop humming the theme song.)
I've also been previewing an awful lot of 'Scrubs' and 'House' other than that, I've been watching old 'Chuck' episodes. I'm waiting for season three now...
I really need to get new stuff...

Finally someone with a sense of humor! Love the evil laugh!
Okay, spill those beans, was it YOU who gave Watchmen all those recommendations?
Urgh, even when disagreeing you're quite tactful.
Behind-kissing being the most ancient, under-rated, yet overused, art of mind-control, I'm going to have to deduct one from your originality level, but seeing as how you handled my insulting of 'Watchmen' so flawlessly, you've been awarded five on the cool-headed scale.
I've been up all night watching another waste of time series "Castle: season 2" I cannot stand the main character, he's so annoying.
What shows do you watch?

Thanks dude not spoken to you in a while to bespecific my last birthday from the looks of things haha, i'm old enough to drink now, **** yeah. Also you been keeping up to date with the euros?

Ah HA! I know what you were up to now! You were trying to get in my good graces because you disagree with my view of Watchmen. How sneaky of you.
Your intellect bar has gone up two points on my personality tally board. (sneakiness is commended) However, for your deception, I shall have to subtract a point from your trustworthiness bar.
