    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    While Chryssalids may not be on my menu, if they ever make a Terror From the Deep remake, I'd particularly enjoy a Lobsterman. Or seven. If only the Seekers were organic, we could have some nice calamari.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I just love that all of the other aliens are acting high-class and dignified, but meanwhile the Sectoid Commander is looking at his tea like he's contemplating how he's supposed to drink it without a mouth.

    3rd issue: 6 man squad, no laser weapons/carapace armor despite being in vanilla XCOM.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    I have the opposite opinion on Watchdogs, as I personally have high hopes for it. Also can't wait for Ace Combat: Infinity, though as usual for most new games I lack a console to play it on.

    From a bit of research, it is apparently going to star LeBron James, with the screenplay written by Willie Ebersol and produced by Charlie Ebersol. I for one, welcome our new ballin' overlords.

    Speaking of 'bad' movies, I heard through the grapevine that there is work being done on a sequel for Space Jam.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Most of the time I only nickname 'mons I use for battles with other people, and when those nicknames tend to be for completely different 'mons. For instance, back in the Platinum days I had a lvl 100 Magikarp named 'Regigigas'. This would usually cause my opponents to flip out at the fact that I...

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    There have always been weird Pokemon. In Gen I you could have a team of a pile of slime, a tree that grows eggs, a mass of tentacles with red shoes, an explosive upside-down pokeball, three tiny brown heads sticking out of a hole, and a bird with a leek.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    The thing is, the only penalty for a soldier going critical (which doesn't even cover all instances of grave wounding), is to their Will. And as much as I'd enjoy the prospect of having additional role-play options, it creates a surreal disconnect between the RP and the game where a soldier who...

    Actually it is on Nexus, it is just hidden in the downloads section. Took me a few minutes to find it as well.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    Oh boy, have I got a story to tell on both those points, being combined in one soldier, a Support specifically, in my Roulette, Not Created Equally, and Hidden potential play-through on Normal. Chen "Combo" Cheng was his name, and he, at Rookie rank, had 50 aim and 55 will, so the only reason I...

    I believe twitch has the ability to archive streams for later viewing.

    Makes sense in hindsight, considering who our Glorious Leader is.

    So I come back after a nice round of golf (managed 10 over on front nine of the Par 3), only to find out XCOM is boned. Again. Goddammit, this is why I shouldn't go golfing.

    X-COM THINK TANK (Out of Character Discussion about X-COM and the Series)

    HERESY! *BLAM!* Though in all honesty, I still hold hope for this season. Even if Chris has gotten several great RPers killed, or if this is in fact one of two seasons I can recall that has had a Code Black (didn't see much of S3, can't say), or even with the fact that the Slingshot DLC is...

    Or the aliens decide to attempt the tactic known as 'Close Air Support'. With a Battleship.

    Funnily enough, was just about to post about looking for a collab. So consider me available.
