Oh this is very bad. I mean, it could have been worse.
Hey, the damage had a 2 in 3 chance of sending someone to Sickbay. You dodged a bullet there, Cally. Literally.
But there's always this turn. Cally's crisis card is:
Hera Rescued
Current Player's Choice
Cally, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Apollo)
Pass on interrupts. I would not be able to help with the check.
BSG (Roslin)
No interrupts.
B BSG (Cally)
I will choose Option 1 and play SR-3 as an interrupt. The check is now YGB!

Pix and ND loaned me Assassins Creed 2 & whatever the 2.5's-not-quite-3-named one. Silly me starting playing 2 last night, on a school night. I liked the original. 2 is pretty awesome too! Still suck at the races, but the story line is better, and doesn't feel as repetitive as the original was. I'm into the 3rd DNA sequence already. However, silly goose here stayed up till 4am playing the bloody thing. D'oh!
Yeah, ACII is one of my favorite games ever. It's sad that ACIII is apparently a step back from everything I've heard.
Wow I have enjoyed the hell out of watching ACIII. Still haven't picked up the controller on any of them, probably too afraid I'll be hooked.
I wouldn't say ACIII is a step back -- it's a bit of a mixed bag, at least for me; a lot of the movement/climbing/freerunning stuff that drives the action is a nice step up from the whole ACII series. I'm just not nearly as deeply into the story (which may or may not come as I get further into the game).
