Title: SW Battlefront II
Post by: Drighton on October 31, 2005, 05:08:51 PM: Okay, I'll be skipping the second half of class, my friend will have the whole day off of work. We both have it pre-ordered and will meet up at about noon-1pm tomorrow to begin whoopin up.

Any other truants out there?

I didn't realize how much anticipation was behind this game until I saw commercials for it on TV, and I don't see that happen very much.

Post by: Drighton on October 31, 2005, 09:46:57 PM: yeah, people tend to generalize nerdity. However I'm beginning to percieve a difference between the different types.

For example, you have the fantasy, Dungeons & Dragons type nerds. Within those nerds you have even more hardcore nerds who actually think they are casting spells and stuff.
Then you have the Science Fiction nerds. They can be mistaken for the fantasy nerds, but the main difference is that these nerds believe in the "logical" and everything has an explaination.
Both of these types tend to believe that others are below them.

And of course you have computer nerds, comic nerds, video game nerds, etc etc.

eventually you start travelling into the "dweeb" and "dork" department...

But I generalize things a little differently: People are stupid. Period.

Post by: Drace on October 31, 2005, 11:34:16 PM: D&D nerds >.<
Those freak me out. Real life Role-playing games...
Or Sci-fi nerds with their Star-Trek conventions.

Ah. thats because you are a crossbreed of nerd-lines. fantasy and sci-fi don't mix as well, hence your not as harcore with either.

I picked up my copy at 9pm last night, and the game is pretty cool. Space is a little hard to get used to. I was killing my own guys when I played as Ki Adi Mundi in the first Rise of the Empire level.

Case and point.

I was filling up at the gas station. There are five or six fuel pumps, thus 10-12 places to refuel your car. The entire place was empty save for myself until some lady pulls up in her hoopty. Where does she go? On the opposite side of me.

Now, logic dictates that if two people are using the same pump, its going to pump slower. Well, I guess she wasn't in a hurry, and didn't care if I was late for work. Nor did she care about her, nor anyone else's saftey, because she promptly began talking on her cellphone from the time she started pumping, till the time she left.

I hate to say it, but I was just waiting for her to burst into flames so I could drive off. :|

Post by: Leon_1990 on November 03, 2005, 08:42:50 PM: Guess what...
Leon's got SW Battlefront 2! :D

haha, let me start by saying that its a vast improvement form the original.

First of all, the graphics and effects kick *** (considering the amount which s going on in the screen at any one time), and the old, tedious gameplay has been overhauled, with you not just killing away at the enemy....now you are given missions form the commanders :p
and the space fighter levels are saaahweet!

and another thing....I actually WANT to play galactic conquest mode now!

anyone who wants the game...buy it now!
and anyone who doesnt want the game....you are a lunatic
