Screw that. We had a tornado warning here a few months ago and we were all huddled in the bathroom waiting out the storm. He was asleep in his swaddle, unaware of anything that was going on, and I was scared to death. My wife thought I was annoyed at her, that I thought waiting in the bathroom was a waste of time. I was just trying not to puke. I couldn't get over how helpless he was and it was up to us to keep him safe, and what was I supposed to do against a friggin tornado?

Yeah, I'm a mess with that stuff now. So burn that game. Every single copy

On the topic of Starcraft, the scene where Kerrigan is left to die makes me want to kick puppies.


Mengsk got off easy compared to what should have been done to him.

He butchered billions of his political adversaries using a weapon that he sacrificed many people to develop.

After using Kerrigan to accomplish his goals, he left her to die at New Gettysburg (after ordering her to protect the zerg so they could be used against Tarsonis through the Psi Emitter)

He used the media and propaganda to go after Raynor, when the true threat was still out there.

He faked Raynor's death to goad Kerrigan into becoming Zerg again.

He tried to have his own son killed.

Yeah, I had Clem go ahead and end it. I may need to go back to that save and try a different option. I still haven't played season 2 yet but damn season 1 had a great story. I enjoyed every minute if that game. Couldn't put it down. Even my wife who couldn't care less about a video game was in to watching me play that one when I was laid up sick for a few days

FF to 22:40

When the kid struggles to climb up into the shuttle on his own, I about lost it - still don't know why that particular 2 second animation crushed me (versus when the shuttle actually gets blown up). It didn't help that I played this for the first time shortly after my son was born, so every time I saw a little boy it made me imagine what my son will look like at that age.

Halo3, especially the ending when he is alone in the arse of that pelican drifting in space.

Also FFIII(US) Just putting the story together and gathering the team in both times. fantastic.

I've probably never been more engrossed in a plot and story than I was when I played Dragon Age: Origins and the Mass Effect Series. Bioware are absolutely the best in the business at telling a story.

Without a doubt. The end of ME2 is still one if my favorite gaming experiences.

Having to choose the correct people for the correct jobs so they all survive.

Learning who the collectors really are.

That moment when the head collector is freed from the reaper's control and it lowers it's head right before everything explodes, you just can't help but imagine it is saying, "thank you".

That game was perfect.

My only problem with RPGs I'd the time I have to play them. They are great for long gaming sessions which I don't usually get. They also involved a lot of slow paced conversations. I like those buy I game at night before I go to sleep so the pace can be hard to stay awake during sometimes. I miss being able to binge on a RPG.

You haven't gotten anything good?

I used one and got a couple shields. One is high shield/reduce health. The other had a crazy recharge rate, like 450 or so but it's only 130 protection

The ending to OoT weirdly got to me. I guess it was because it was such an incredible journey coming to an end.

Ending to Kingdom Hearts 1 was pretty damn solid.
