    Not confirmed, but from a marketing point of view, i would say that it would be a good opportunity to make more money out of the TDT saga.

    I don't doubt that, Jeremy. But as soon as the developer of the game is announced, I can confirm if it'll be a good game or not. Chances are really high that it won't.

    But money will make (Yoda). No doubt about it (that's why more and more movie-tie-in videogames are made).

    But I let them off because the games are still very playable, I'm always fiddling about with them on iPad, I'll be getting that new one too (the Zelda rip-off one).

    As for DT I don't even want a film never mind a video game.
    LOL. There isn't a single original videogame. I really liked working at Gameloft, but it sucked the way they close doors on innovation. Their main law is "If it's good and it sold, copy that game".

    Dude, since you mentioned that......

    A while back I ordered a box of checks. 3 weeks went by and no checks. I call them, they apologize, cancel the checks, put a stop payment on the entire box, order me a new box. 2 weeks later I get a box of checks. Then a week later i get ANOTHER box of checks. I called today and they couldn't tell me which was the good box. It took me 30 minutes to get anyone at all, they didn't know, transferred me, they didn't know, transferred me, they didn't know. I'm getting pissed. Finally a guy says, "well, if you wait six months you can use them all, because a stop pay only lasts 6 months." :facepalm: some people's kids..........
    "So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."

    The two are slighlty different-
    In trap shooting, the shooter stands 16 yards behind the throwing station. Clay pigeons are then thrown forward, either 1 or 2 at a time. In skeet the shooter rotates between 8 shooting positions that are located in a half-circle pattern. Clay pigeons are thrown from 2 throwing stations, so the angles and direction of the pigeons vary every time.

    I woke up to 4-5 foot snow drifts outside my door with area's of the parking lot in the 6-8 foot range. I think we got about 2 feet, but the 40-50mph winds really made things a mess.
    Even the interstate was shutdown today, so I'm wondering when I will get plowed out.

    I think it was supposed to get as low as -5 (without the windchill) last night. Not shocking for WI, but I'd be pissed about 16 in TX too.
