I do agree that they're not of any value, but I also enjoy achievements. Some of the more whacky or difficult ones are fun to get after you've completed a game, because it might help you squeeze out a couple more hours of play time.
Jace Hall is the executive producer of the TV series V, which is a remake of the original one from 1983. In 1983, that girl played an alien on the show, and said alien ate a mouse.
This is slightly off-topic, but does anyone know if Cryptic is going to be doing some kind of free trial or something for Star Trek Online? Because I would really like to try it out, it seems like it could be interesting.
@freaparn, he's talking about with the DLC armor. You can't change it to where you're not wearing a helmet, so in conversations and cutscenes, you're wearing a helmet. Or, if you're wearing a helmet for the stats, but don't want it to show during a cutscene or conversation, you can't do that. It's the reason I don't use the Terminus Armor, but I don't really mind cause I didn't pay anything extra for that armor or anything.
For the time, I think Star Wars Galaxies did really well, actually. Until that combat update. All I hear is that it was amazing, and then they did the CU and everything was destroyed. lol
I would say play through the first. I really enjoyed it but even if you don't, I think that it will make your experience with the second one THAT much better, because of the import feature.
WoW was announced 3 years before it's release. The hype didn't kill it. I think 2011 is just as probable as 2010. Although their publisher is LucasArts.
