    Empire Online: 100 Greatest Video Games of all time

    I can only assume that the person who made that list has only played the 100 games on it in their life and mostly breaths through their mouth. That said, played 52, and 'beat' most of those if you assume you can beat something that was mostly played for multiplayer.

    The Aorus was $2592 all in. It is about $2100 base, but I tweaked it a bit (ram, rush build since I am moving, and the shipping was high due to, well Canada). Not cheap by any stretch but I really wanted a light form factor.

    I seriously need some Tamadras but Heaven and Hell is such a pain in the ass. Hopefully we end up with a few out of one of the events soon -- I like stones obviously, but right now Tamadras are more needed for me!

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    So they rolled a massive patch last night for this. I am honestly pretty amazed and impressed at the scope of this game already -- especially given how little hype the 'open world' component has received. The combat is fluid and it looks great even on a low-medium spec machine. Still trying...

    Will do. I suspect given the SLI cards, it will be a situation where anything optimized for dual cards will easily outpace the single 880, but anything not, the Alienware / Razorblade will fare better better (there is a sizeable performance bump from the 860 to the 880 in single card...

    Their order spec sheet is a little rough to read. Main guts of it are double 860M in sli, an over clocked i7, overclocked ram and the super-raided SSDs

    Just ordered a custom built Aorus laptop from Xotic PC. Will provide some feedback as I jump through the various hoops of getting it to Canada. So far they have been excellent (fantastic customer service, excellent online ordering process and good email feedback on status).

    Weight Loss Thread

    I kind of like the simplicity of it, but only a day of recovery for each muscle group. I have to think that isn't letting you rebuild properly between work outs especially if you are doing 90+% reps which it looks like you are. Maybe I am just a slower recoverer (never juiced, not...

    Greater muscle fatigue. No fucking idea if it is a real word but spell check did not shit the bed so I am going with it. Basically it is the concept of 'I can only do 5 reps of 200 lbs', so you do your 5 reps at 200 and then you strip off some of the weight and do a few more (e.g., 5X200 then...

    Unfortunately, we live in a society where there exists a script to qualify as 'normal'. You go to school, get a job, get a wife/husband, get a house, have 1.5 kids, buy shit we don't need with money we don't have, get old and die. Society and family dictates this is how it goes and if you...

    Just bad luck. I found the opposite. I usually would go from crap to legendaries after about 10 'rerolls'. You get a feel for which chests have the good stuff though. Anything with 4 magic items has a solid chance of at least one unique/legendary, and some chests the best you can hope for is...

    Are you planning on running L. Tron as the lead or DXQX? Whichever is your lead, should be the +egg recipient as it will increase the number of friends who pick it and as such the number of pal-eggs. I would be going L. Tron for the moment as DXDQ has not ultimate evo yet, but they might...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    I loved DA:O and Divinity. Frankly, you can't go wrong with either. That said, if you already own DA:O, play that first and by the time you beat it, you can likely get Divinity cheaper. DA:2 though, I would just Wiki it and call it a day.

    Yep, anyone who missed out on ME3 multiplayer missed out on the best part of the game. And this is coming from someone who actually loved the single-player part of it including the much maligned ending. I have some hopes for this one too, but Bioware hasn't been batting a 1.000 in some of...

    It's an odd spot to feel pain during deads if it was too much weight, I would expect him to have ripping in his glutes if it was just too heavy. Hard to say, but my bet is on form over weight

    You are probably right on the positioning, wrist or elbow out of alignment (usually because you are too wide/ narrow or my personal flaw of not being quite close enough to the bar) will definitely screw with it, especially at the weights it sounds like you are pulling. I usually end up switching...

    Oh... Yeah, I certainly have not found any skill books that were 'unique' as in they only appeared once per game. Some are definitely more rare than others (whirlwind is definitely rare, rain as well), but you can get whirlwind from both so you won't gimp yourself if you do respec, you just...

    This is only half true. I have gotten three of the same book (+int -perception) so far, so you can find more than just the one shot deal per attribute. Definitely a bug, I got stuff off her and her minions. Don't recall her being one of the ones with a cool unique item, but definitely a pool...

    Your fine actually. It takes a lot to gimp a character because so many skills and talents are viable (even the low level abilities often see a lot of use at high level play). Later you can respec if you are not happy and you can buy ability point and attribute points for money (though not at...

    Bosses do have random loot tables but some have 'Special' Uniques associated with them as well that sometimes drop (this seems to hold true of some chests as well). The uniques are solid items but I would not sweat not getting one since the legendary items seem just as good at the same tier but...
