MM, go for the cock punch. It's now the official disciplinary action of Diablo Sound.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
MM, you should pick up a used copy of Orange Box. Fun multiplayer shoot out. And easier. I actually killed Pete a few times.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Actually, a brand new copy of Orange Box only runs $20 on Amazon nowadays. It is astonishingly good value as it has the main Half Life 2 game and the follow up episodes 1 & 2. It has Portal and it has Team Fortress 2 which is the multiplayer game Omnis is referring to.
Given that TF2 has 8 character classes, you can pretty much find a class that suits your style of play.
For other info, look in my Livejournal. I made a post about 360 games just a couple of days ago.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

We played most of Resistance 2 on my brother's PS3 over Christmas. My husband complained a lot about not having a mouse.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I now have passes from everyone. Scouting roll:
Die roll: 1. Mission fails, lose 1 raptor. The Admiral's hot rolling has finally deserted him. A shame, you probably would've liked to have known this was coming:
Surrounded
Cylon Attack
First off, the two basestars activate. The basestar in Sector 1 can't launch ships, but its weapons are undamaged. They fire on Galactica.
Basestar 1:
1. Miss.
Basestar 2:
2. Miss. Bah.
Oh well. Let's add some more ships. No new basestar, as there are already two on the board. No vipers either, since there aren't any undamaged ones available. But we have some other guests, including the remaining civilian ships. All civvies are now on the board.
Finally, seems there's been some Panic! President Zarek, you must discard 3 skill cards. When you're ready, please post your choice.
Thata concludes Zarek's turn. Adama, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your move and action.
