  1. Yup, classic overheating. Open up your case, clean out all the dust and make sure the computer is in a well ventilated area.
  2. I got all nostalgic with the reference to Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters From Beverly Hills. So, I searched Youtube to find it's opening... the whole first page of comments is filled with people who did exactly as I did.
  3. I wonder if the Steampunk guys were going to be Praetorian Nemesis? I see a few similar bits.

    Technically, we don't get any more lost after I think level 29. And since time is kinda connected to levels and zones, the Lost ARE gone. They exist in the lower levels still, but that's like going back in time... kind of. It's weird and complicated.
  5. Yeah, never knew her, but I hope things go as well as they can for her.

  7. I'm in the UK. I joined before there were EU servers and didn't feel like moving. I often have both a faster and more stable connection than most of my US team mates and I usually load faster too.

    This is an MMO, latency is almost a non-issue since it only effects the person who suffers from it and the game doesn't require fast reaction times anyway.
  8. It'd be funny if it wasn't so heartbreaking
  9. I'm disappointed it's not called "The Batman" or just "Batman" actually.

    No you didn't.

    I don't get the reference. Had to look it up. I'm 23 by the way. Not sure what you consider "a kid".

    No. And you don't either, because we've had more costume content through the packs than we ever got for free over the same period of time. Plus, we are still getting free costume pieces at about the same rate as before too.
  13. That's almost certainly overheating. Check inside and try to clear out any dust and see if that fixes the problem.
  14. That looks cool. I'll be getting it.

    Oh, and for those dissing the Party Pack... having an emote where you can grab your crotch at strangers is worth $10. Just sayin'.

    Disney probably won't put their stamp on it, it'll likely just be Marvel Studios in the credits. They do this with lots of stuff they don't especially want associated with the Disney brand. Like Touchstone.

    And Defiance of course.
  17. I don't think Giant Monsters should be soloable.
    I'm surprised that they are apparently. I'd always though that a solo character could never do enough damage to overcome their regen.

    But anyway. EBs should be soloable if you're built right. AVs should only be soloable if you're min/max'd to the extreme.

    I can think of a few. Daredevil for instance. I bet you could do Ironman although not as good as the films obviously). X-men would be possible. They even made a show kinda sorta based on that called Mutant X. It's writing was terrible though.
    Things would need to be scaled back a bit, but I think a lot more heroes are possible than before.

    Personally, I'd like to see a serious Batman series.

    Nothing wrong with Titanic really, it's just "cool" to hate it.

    A vocal minority maybe. It's hard to argue with a Trilogy of almost 3 hour films that still put everyone in their buts and won a clean sweep at the Academy Awards (plus tons of other awards).
    Peter Jackson changed some things, but he only did what he had to do to make them good films.
    Or if you're talking about the people who felt it was too long. Meh, it's a saga, it's supposed to be long.

    Personally, I consider the films to be the best Trilogy in history.

    Now, let's hope that the Hobbit can be as good.

    Because Nick Cage is awesome.
