ParticipantAh well, you’ll be glad to know I’ve already decided to use your muscle mod next time I play it.
One of the great things with Torchlight is it has that Netbook mode so it runs on truly awful computers, like my old laptop.

ParticipantLol not sure how that works, tree still falls in the wood.
Would you be shocked to hear that the sequel is out this year? Going to be awesome.
(also, why am I welcome?)

ParticipantEr…new game? Didn’t Torchlight come out 18 month ago?

Participant*puts on Gams Jarnalist hat* WELL I THINK THE FOLKS AT MVC3 COULD HAVE USED MORE VARIETY AND MORE POPULAR CHARACTERS, I MEAN SHE’S PROBABLY JUST A CLONE OF THE HULK
*takes off hat, puts on Jamie Eason shirt* SOLD.

ParticipantAh yes. Twilight. It’s terrible(y awesome), a great thing to like ironically. I’ve read all the books apart from the new one (should really get round to torrenting it) and have seen both films so far. Unless of course third film is already out…
Either way, the series really is pretty crap. The fact that I have read them gives me a moral highground with a lot of ‘Twihards’ or however they wish to call themselves, it’s great to tell them how and why the books are just not good and see them lost for words.
Here are some key points to remember:
* Bella does not love Edward, she lusts over him, everytime she talks about him she mentions how sexy he is and then is constantly annoyed by him. In the fourth book she does actually at one point near the end give actual reasons why she might love him.
* Edward is a stalker and a textbook abusive boyfriend. His attraction lies in the fact he wants to eat her. He leaves her to protect her, manipulates her with the promise of sex, and controls who she sees (in one case taking the engine out of her truck so she can’t go see werewolf boy).
* Stephenie Meyer tries to get away in the books saying that a character is such a way, and then have them act differently. Even if this started out as some clever way to show that Bella isn’t as smart as she thinks she is (the books are from her perspective), that has been long since abandoned to cater for the masses. Also I really doubt she’s that clever.
* Lol hyperbole
* Lol sparkly vampires
The book is pretty sexist really. Edward has to empower her, her whole pregnancy deal, etc etc.
My favourite bit by far has to be the bit where there is an ‘epic’ battle between Vampires and other Vampires teamed up with Werewolves that has been built up over the past book and a half. It’s loosely described by Edward to Bella as he mind melds with a young werewolf and says things like ‘good move’ and ‘ah thats clever’ etc.
You know why I read them? Hoping there was female strength stuff in there, of which there is a very poorly described scene where Bella is ‘karate chopping’ a rock.
Am I happy? Maybe. Priceless to watch Twilight fans have their world crumble around them without any defence.

ParticipantUgh dubbed. Terrible. Awesome Anime though, the OVA last year was great as well

ParticipantPersonally I think American Dad is alright at the moment…but then I’m not going to be one of those arseholes who then says ‘BUT THE REST OF HIS STUFF IS SHIT’ because I’m sure there are many valid arguements for American Dad being terrible along with his shitty youtube channel, Cleveland show, and just anything with his name on so he can whore himself out with mediocreness.
