Playstation is a console yes, but I was saying that no (or very few) good fantasy games have been made on consoles in the past 5 years, which means Playstation games can be good because The PS2 has been out for more than 5 years.

Is it just me, or does the active member population seem disproportionately Jewish? I have nothing against Jews, but I'm curious what makes Spiderweb such a Jew-magnet. Interestingly enough, I work at a grocery store, and we sell more challah bread during Passover than any other time of the year. Now, if Jews can't eat levened bread during Passover, who the heck is buying all that challah? -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Spiderweb is an independent shareware company. In order to make platform games, Jeff would have to sell his games in a mainstream retail setting, which is something that he is never going to do. Also, the DS sucks, but that's a topic for another time. :P [ Wednesday, April 12, 2006 12:06: Message edited by: Tyranicus ] -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Teenagers under 18, while unable to get credit cards, can open a checking account at a bank and get a debit card that can be used in place of a credit card. That's what I did when I was a teen anyway.

quote:Where else do you expect me to go? I'm not going to just let Ohvol take the Great Cave for his evil designs. I am the king of Avernum, after all, and a king does not abandon his people. (a good one doesn't anyway :P ) Also, I had him do what the character would have actually done. It makes tactical sense for the army to fall back to Almaria. Just because you told me that Ohvol is heading to the Great Cave doesn't mean that anyone in my faction knows this. I deliberately kept Thomys's premonition vague to avoid the "all-powerful magic" that some people seem to be using. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

It was late at night, about 3 candlemarks past midnight. Lartaynior was sitting at his desk, deep in thought. The outriders and scouts from Cressen's army had just returned that day. 40 men out of the 5,000 I sent north. This infestation is quite unnerving. He was still pondering his next moved, when his door slammed open and Thomys rushed in. The mage was in his bedclothes and had that haggered, just-out-of-bed appearance. "What in the name of the gods...." "Sire, you must leave! Now! There is no time for argument!" "Leave? What in the name of the Abyss are you talking about?" "I have had a premonition. Something terrible is in the city. If you do not leave the city now, you will surely die!" Thomys had been his friend and advisor as well as his personal mage for many years. He knew better than dismiss this as folly. "Alright. Let me summon my generals. We need to get my soldiers out of here." "There is no time for that! They will have to fend for themselves. Most of the army is still camped west of the city. We must go there. Now!" "Very well, I will go with you." "Alright. Let's go. Thomys hurried out the door, and Lartaynior followed him quickly. He yelled at his aide to follow. They hurried out of the inn and through the streets. The guard at the western gate took one look at them and started. "Where are you going this late, sire?" "That is not your concern. Let us pass," he commanded bruskly. "Yes, your grace," replied the guardsman as he opened the gate for them. When he reached the army camp, he yelled for his top generals. "Petyr, Janos, Balon, Ryman!" Slowly, the sleepy men came out, rubbing their eyes which widened when they sall their king. "We must leave this place now!" he commanded in a voice tha overrode all objections. "What of the forces in the city?" asked General Ryman. "It is too late for them," said Lartaynior, as he heard the clash of steel-on-steel from the city and turned to see flames licking the stalactites. I always knew Thomys would come in handy. "What in the name of all that is good and holy is going on in there?!" yelled Janos. "Nothing good and holy, I assure you," said Thomys. A great evil has infiltrated the city turning men against each other. If we do not leave now, it will affect us as well." "Then we should be off at once!" said Petyr, who went off to find the buglers to wake the men. It's a good thing my generals are able to keep cool heads during a crisis, but then, that's part of being generals, isn't it? In 20 minutes (an astonishingly fast time for such a large host) the army was marching west towards Almaria, leaving the burning city of Torfen behind them. Lartaynior fervently thanked the gods for Thomys's premonition. [ Tuesday, April 11, 2006 13:02: Message edited by: Tyranicus ] -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?
