Mine would most certainly have to be X-Wing Alliance. That is the greatest joystick game ever created. And the campaign rocks.

Tell us the stats, achievements, cool features, looks, armor, weapons, powers, feats, skills, etc. about your character.

I want a working copy and don't want a downloaded game to error out on me.

* Hero Engine is being used

* You can take a companion with you (you can have many, but only one will accompany you)

* Republic and Sith factions (so far)

* Ability to be dark or light is not dependent upon your faction (ie I can be light sith or dark republic)

Just be aware you will see a big difference between my creations since my kids have made some creations as well.

I could have sworn we had a topic about this before (searched before I posted)

Currently I'm working my way through NWN (just started today so I'm chapter 1 of the OC).

In the future I'll probably play Planescape Torment (again).  Some of the games I'll be playing later on (as they get released) are Far Cry 2 (probably sp only), Fallout 3, NWN2: SoZ, Titan Quest: IT, and Sacred 2 (Diablo III is somewhere in the far future).  I'll try to put xfire back on my pc and laptop and be available if anyone shows an interest in playing with me (note: I'm very casual).

My SW rpg game:  I loved the Kotor series.  What I would love would be to make it an action rpg (with still the same type of story and dialogue, etc) and allow the playable character (that you can customize their appearance with tons of options like an MMO or something) to weild a melee weapon in their right hand and a blaster pistol in their left hand simultaneously.  It would be awesome to be blocking laser shots with your lightsaber and shooting back.  Of course it would have to be a sort of high level skill or something, but still I want a jedi game where I can weild ls+bp.

Just like the original I beta tested the game and found it allot of fun.

Edit:

Open by Cain -

Long time no see… I imagined that some of you who may play spore and conquer the galaxy will be annoyed to the bone by the cartoonish designs. So I spent a few hours to fix this – I hope it will make your Spore experience more pleasant. Btw Stormtroopers were already made in sporopedia – I’ll check them later in case they need fixing.

It is nice to see you all going well here – I miss Rebellion !!!

------------------

- I've been demoted as a leader by the system, given to Gargbageben, then given to AT-AT Controller.

- I got a Birthday gift from the game, a spider.

- Going to get GW:EN on monday.

- Saw people still active, thankfully.

- Added new member: Videoteck (ign: jumping strawberry)

- Revived the idea of using my faction points from Luxon to merge with Raziel's Guild to form an Alliance. I was too impulsive and screwed ourselves over.

-  Added a Festival Hat NPC to our Guild Hall.

- 3 people on at once (me, Nagash [Patsred), and Videoteck.)

- Done a few more quests with my survival alt.

- Added the Emblemer to our Guild Hall.

- changed Emblem.

- Me and Nagash got our event hats.

A slew of previews came out recently (IGN, Gamespy, gamespot) and from that the game looks intresting. Graphics wise, I don't think its going to hold a light to Elder Scrolls IV, but to compare NWN2 to ESIV would be faulty beyond that so I'm not going any further down that vien.

A few things of intrest to me popped up during the previews. Its been said in at least one of the previews that you can play as a monsterous race in this game, like an orc, gnoll, drow, and whatever else. You won't be stuck with just the base classes like dwarves, humans, elves, ect. But Obsidian (the developer) said no to template races. This means you can't be a vampire, lycanthrope, and that sort of thing. No worries though, even if half of the original NWN mod community shows up for this game, these will most likely be availble through mods.

Another thing that appears to be cool is the presence of strongholds. Though the function of these things in game hasn't been detailed, maybe you can lay seige? This gamer can only hope.

One thing that has me jumping up and down with joy is a simpified mod set and the removal of tile sets. Translation, you can make things a lot easier and when you place objects like tree, they won't be restricted to a certain area, you can place them where ever allowing for a potentially more organic look to outdoor levels.

I suppose there is a fourth thing ya'll might be intrested in, Obsidian is carring over the follower influence system from KOTORII (which I haven't played and can't speak on.) Also the addition of the Law and Chaos axis has been added to the Good and Evil axis make for more dynamic alignments as any D&D player can tell you. Followers in this game won't be the simple mercenary henchmen from the first, but dynamic NPC that will be affected by the decisions you make.

If you want a slightly more coherent summary and preview head over to gamespy.com, gamespot.com, and/or IGN.com.

I'm not sure if you are familiar with the fact that a Spore creatures have 24.5 Kb max in file size. And they are saved as PNG. So all you need to do is to take a new png creature, put in the creatures files and then open the demo and press see all (first option).

So zip all your cool pngs from the \My Documents\My Spore Creations\Creatures

And attach them here - I've attached all mine. Pls note that I'm using the unnofocial from internet net new data folder version

Here's a couple o' my creations using it;

The Raptoidaner of Raptoridan:

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w32/Logan_Felipe/Raptoridaner.png

Senitent raptor like creatures. This particular one has a prosthetic leg to replace the one he lost in a war. The red feathers are for display; they stand up when the creature feels threatened or angry, or as a warning. His weapon delivers electrical currents into its target.

Deinoquabrachis ("Terrible Four Arms")

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w32/Logan_Felipe/Deinoquabrachis.png

This huge predator inhabits the thick forests of Arborfrost. It uses its large "hands" and strong limbs to push itself through densely forested areas, similar to the way a mole moves through dirt. The purple crest is only found on males, and serves as a courtship display. To help find prey in the dark depths of the forests, it uses heat sensor pits along its mouth to detect heat signatures. it walks on its armored knuckles when on the forest floor.

Cheers,

Cain

Been playing this for awhile and I must say this, Guild Wars, Hellgate London, and Navyfield own. This game plays like Guild Wars for the map and heroes aspect but it adds loyalty points. You create stuff, you harvest stuff, you fight stuff, you can even boat around, you can travel the globe, you can capture creatures (As in literally drag them) and make them your buddies. As for housing your given a tent, which you can upgrade, to build and store stuff which can be packed/unpacked anywhere. If your wondering about combat its turn based.

If you feel like joining I'm on the Aries4 server. If your looking for my characters look out for "Substance" and "Mirai-Sora"

Five years later, I have finally finished the core programming on the next generation of that game. I call it Galactic Simulation, or GalSim for short. Basically, you can read up about it at http://galsim.nickersonm.com , where I give a little history and some of the features provided. I also give pics and stats for all the ships you can play in the game.

In short, if you liked Rebellion but wanted more control, or like Empire At War but would love to have dozens of players, this game could be up your alley. Build ships, launch attacks, mine resources to fuel your war machine, whatever you want. And all the while, you could command a fleet of star destroyers, like we all have wanted to do.

This game is designed to be content-intensive giving you eventually alot of options on how to make your fortune, plus the ability to see your units down to the individual fighter. Anyway, I hope I have interested you enough. Check out my site (I am NOT a web designer, so it is REALLY REALLY basic) and write me if you want to sign up. Once I get a few people signed up I will start the game turn engine and the war will be on.

Thanks in advance for any interest.

UPDATE:

we have a nice little forum setup for the game and their is already a nice group of folks playing.

Eidos Interactive Ltd., one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, today confirmed that Battlestations: Pacific, the official sequel to 2007's acclaimed Battlestations: Midway, will be available for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system and Games For Windows. The game features a massive U.S. and Japanese single player campaign that offers a unique blend of action and strategy. Players must plan their moves carefully on huge open-world arenas and fight in the air, above sea and underwater to relive some of the most hard-fought battles in WWII history. With the newly added Japanese faction, players will also gain insight into what could have been, should Japan have gained the upper hand against the United States. Battlestations: Pacific also features five new innovative multiplayer modes to strategically plan and battle against friends with all new maps and units.

Set in WWII, Battlestations: Pacific delivers intense, action-packed combat and strategic warfare at an extraordinary scale and features two distinctly different single player campaigns. As the Americans, the game picks up the story where Battlestations: Midway left off and allows players to fight their way from The Battle of Midway to Okinawa as they try to secure peace in the Pacific. As the Japanese however, players take control of the Imperial Japanese fleet and have the unique chance to fight at Pearl Harbor before attempting to change the course of history and take full control of the Pacific Ocean.

"Eidos is excited to bring an even bigger, more innovative and authentic experience with Battlestations: Pacific," said Robert A. Lindsey, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Eidos Inc. "With an all new Japanese faction to explore and fight with, newly expanded multiplayer content, and a slew of new air, sea, and land units, the game takes the Battlestations series to the next level, bringing a completely different perspective to the war over the Pacific."

The U.S. and Japanese single player campaigns in Battlestations: Pacific feature over 28 story missions, doubling the size of the previous Battlestations: Midway, and 21 new units, including kamikaze and other WWII jets and units. Players can now discover another viewpoint of the war by taking direct control of the infamous Ohka and other Japanese air units that fought over the Pacific Ocean during WWII.

For the first time, the game also includes the tactical landing of troops in battle. Launch your parachute squadrons with pin-point accuracy or ensure the safe passage of your landing craft and watch your battalions of troops capture key locations, man the defensive artillery and gain a strategic foothold to support your offensive efforts.

Battlestations: Pacific features all-new online multiplayer modes where players can actively engage in battles and skirmishes against friends online, and via System Link. With a plethora of new maps, units, and options to explore, Battlestations: Pacific delivers the most exciting, authentic and fun Battlestations experience yet.

Battlestations: Pacific will be available on Xbox 360 and Games For Windows.

tank action. There are two opposing teams battling each other with heavily

armed and armored tanks.

Players control their tank from the ego-perspective and fire weapons with a

ballistic trajectory at their enemies, which requires a good aiming skill. Each

player can equip his tank with different primary and secondary wepaons and

can choose from a range of additional skills. As the game progresses, players

are able to upgrade their tanks with weapon, speed and armor enhancements.
