Geocities closing down, my sites going offline.
« Thread Started on Oct 8, 2009, 2:15pm »

All my old AvP CCG sites are going offline on the 26th, when Geocities closes. This means a lot of dead image links in the older AvP set threads, because I hosted most of those of Geocities. Halo and the newer stuff is hosted on Photobucket, so that will be unaffected.

I suggest if anyone was meaning to save the cards, they do so now, because they will be gone soon enough.

I will likely upload them to photobucket at some point., and probably just update the threads with links to the sets.

I am uploading the now missing images to http://s363.photobucket.com/albums/oo80/Axlotl666/AVP%20CCG/

Right now, just Pandemic is uploaded, but i'll get the rest up later. Now I'm off to play Dragon Age.

Ah. You'll have to tell me how it is, as I probably won't get a chance to pick it up for a while yet.

Dragon Age is amazing. The NPC characterization is the most in-depth I've seen in a game. Party members break out in random conversations, and the game rewards you for learning about your party members with the Gift system.

If you liked KOTOR, I think you'd like this, assuming you don't mind fantasy. The combat is basically the same as KOTOR, except instead of Flurry/Critical Strike/Power Attack, there are 100s of different attacks. The Class system is designed with TONS more customization than KOTOR also. 3 base classes, and each base class has 4 specializations that change the class a bit. Its like it took the best parts of KOTOR and Dungeons and Dragons. Its not D20 based, but the system is definitely derived from it.

The fantasy setting itself is a bit refreshing to. Its a world with a lot of flaws common to the real world. Elves are a minority, stuck in slums and servitude. Mages are forced into an organization to control their power, or hunted down and destroyed.

I like seeing a fantasy setting that is totally serious and dark, its pretty refreshing, even for a game with Elves and Dwarves.

It definitely sounds cool, I just don't have the cash atm. Still hurting from purchasing that facehugger (but, I mean, its not like I could pass it up) and then I gotta save up for AVP3 in February.

AVP3 looks amazing. I sometimes wonder what would happen to the franchise if an AVP video game hit Halo levels. Especially since Halo owes its very existence to Aliens.

Well, I personally like both of the original AVPs better than any of the Halos. Halo Multiplayer just hasn't ever done it for me.

I actually never played the original AvP, but I do rank AvP 2 higher than the Halos.

Well at least as far as strict multiplayer (especially in terms of racial balance) goes, the original was even better. Which, since Rebellion developed the original and is doing the new one (Monolith did AVP2), gives me extremely high hopes for the new release.
