    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I just fell out of my seat. Why are dolls so damn creepy? I've also been having longer-than-usual showers on the off chance Grelite decides to mess with me and I start smouldering. I live in fear.

    I'm sorry, did EA purchase those rights when I wasn't looking?

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    There's one question, though. Wallace or Steven?

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I was actually looking up the suicide mission stuff to see what allows certain people to die, and Miranda is apparently really OP. Even if she doesn't pass the "loyal and ideal" check for second fire team leader, she still survives. If she's the squadmate that would be killed if your biotic...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    TAKE YOUR HERESY AND BEGONE! Nah, I joke. To each their own. I personally mostly like it because it doesn't sacrifice story - or depending on your opinion, it's attempt at a story - for graphics or anything like that. I miss the days when graphics were going to be shite regardless and gaming...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Wasn't implying worse, although it does sound a bit like it. Only used the phrase "less than perfect" because it was less than what is commonly referred to as a "perfect" ending. Now I sound like I'm nitpicking. I give up, not going to try defending myself from the all-seeing and all-knowing...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I'm pretty interested to see the outcome of Odd's... uh... "less than perfect resolution" of ME2. I'm going to assume you've all watched his play-through or otherwise don't give a damn about the game, but if I'm wrong, I'ma put a SPOILER ALERT right here just in case you have yet to see what...

    They were playing the wrong game. I too used to play touch football, but I could never catch anyone. That is, until my parents offered me $1 for every person I tapped. First game after that, came home with $20.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    That's... not how it works. Unless you're into that kinda thing, anyway. No wizards huh? Hmm. That's the third time I've used that picture this year. I need to stop. I'm terrible at sports in terms of physically kicking the ball etc, but I can read the game very well and I usually end up in a...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    What about nicknames? What are your favorite nicknames to give to a certain Pokemon? For example, from my own, Ludicrous the Ludicolo, Quadraxis the Metagross, C.J. the Scrafty, Ridley the Charizard, Dovahkiin the Exploud. Most of mine tend to be references, or a play on their names. How do you...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    So am I, but I kinda wish it were less... "puffy". It just looks like it's standing directly over a (weak) air vent, or like a reverse parachute. I know, I know. "Elegance". To clarify, and to reduce the rage incoming, that's the only Mega I have any problem with. It's that one bad thing about...

    *begins tearing up* Why did you have to bring that game up? Now I'ma be depressed all night.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Waitaminute, Ash got swept by a BELLSPROUT?! Didn't he have a Charizard or something? Then again, this is Ash we're talking about. My own favorite was Blazekin, but then Gen 5 happened and Scrafty came along. C.J. and I swept three of the Elite Four in White simply because of type advantage. And...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I think those remakes are currently stuck in the same nether realm as Half Life 3. I remember when there was a section of Black/White's Elite 4' music that sounded exactly the same as the appropriate music from Ruby/Sapphire, and the reaction was essentially "Gen 3 remakes confirmed!" One day...

    I believe so. Pepper was going to see if he could get that set up as of our last conversation. Two words; "The Bureau". That was third-person, admittedly, but the basic premise is the same. I personally have not played it, and as such I will reserve judgement, however the general line I've...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I'm pretty lucky. My group of friends pretty much have the same taste in video games as I do. Most of the games I have played within the last two years have been at their suggestion; Bioshock Infinite (because only one had played it and he was dying for someone to talk to about it), Mass Effect...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    And there's another one. I'm "that guy", the one who comes late to everything. Hell, I only started playing Mass Effect about 2 weeks before Odd did (which was kinda creepy, but whatever. On a side note, do you have any idea how difficult it is to locate a physical copy of ME3 for PC? Found...
