Just give me Urza as a playable character (or NPC that I can help) and I will be happy.

Could be huge, could be a disaster. Wizards of the Coast does not have a good track record with their digital products. Secondly, with their business model the way it is, there is almost certainly a high probability that the game will have many microtransactions requiring in-game payment with real money to be successful. Add to that the track record of Cryptic and Perfect World (not knocking them, just commenting on their chosen business models), and you have a recipe for a vindictive user base that carries over to your main products (physical) as a loss of revenues potentially. I too have been playing MTG on and off since 1996. I don't want to see this be bad, but I have many reservations about it depending on the direction it goes in.

Always deescalate a situation if you can. Always.

Considering how bad 2 and 3 were quality wise, CG may be the appropriate way to take this (particularly after the CG TV series aired). This is starting to feel like X-Men and Wolverine/Logan though with the alternate universes (between the CG and the Non-CG versions of the series with exception to the original movie). Did anyone ever watch the 2012 CG movie? I feel like I need to find it now just to see how bad it may be.
Spoiler The writers for the Baywatch reboot are picking up the series to reboot... It's tough to screw the series up, but I don't see how they don't screw it up further. Eh, at least Casper Van Dien is involved.

I will let you know how it is. The best time to buy airline tickets (I think) if you're shooting for a November/December trip appears to be March. But you know how airline tickets change every 10 minutes.

Not sure how I'm going to sleep tonight, I'll figure out something.
It will feel so good once it's done though! Just make sure to properly ventilate the room while sitting at that desk with the PC for hours. We don't need one of these:

I don't recall if I posted this or not - but my wife and I finally bought our plane tickets for New Zealand (3 weeks road tripping both northern and southern islands).

Coffee is fine in moderation - don't overdo it though. It is a diarrhetic. But to overdo it you need to drink like 10 cups a day (I'm currently on number 2 of a normal 4-5 cups per day :/).

@blackdog ah, I see now. Yeah, it's hard to see it when your reference is The Wire. I get that. Lol.

Anyway I'm blown away by how bad the casting for the voice acting is. I'll give a pass to the funny robot as it's a robot, but Lance Reddick is so out of place that it does seem it's not even lip-sync.
Can't tell if sarcasm.... It's the same voice actors from the first one. Continuity perhaps? Also - I thought the animation sync with the voice was pretty decent. That and Lance Reddick has a pretty sweet voice (that he uses routinely to play the serious leader :D). The "funny robot" is Nathan Fillion. I'm looking forward to this one as I can get into it sooner (only got into the first one last December) and its been slated for a PC release as well. Should be a fun FPS with some great looking environments and design (the first one is a source of inspiration for me right now on the environment art side).

Welcome to the Core @JackW!

A little critique @grapen: The wall texture looks very nice, as does the texture of the door trim. However, it blends very easily into the wall texture due to the geometry. Consider widening that so that it stands out a little bit more and takes advantage of any AO you have. Secondly, the top of the arch needs refinement as the point is jarring and the texture seam is noticeable. I suggest you create another separation piece there, as this would likely be done in real life (grout straight up and down). This will mask the natural seam and add a little bit of additional realism to the piece. Other than that, great job!

That hurts Sprony. Take comfort in knowing that you, his best friend, was there to comfort him at the end of this life to carry him to the next.

Thank you Dr. @dux! Your diagnosis saved me!

So one of my friends got one. I think I shall test on his. I will report back here with results ASAP.

This past weekend my car broke down, then my computer broke down, and I got a hell of a head cold that I am still fighting. . . did I do something wrong in a past life about this time in my life?
