Like, four people should go vote in this.

It would make me happy. Especially since when I first found the poll in OP Poll Whack-a-Mole, Miranda was losing to the space hamster by a lot.


I just voted. Tali is leading at 39% with Miranda at 38%. Not bad.

I think Bioware will be pressured more to develop things on a routine basis as EA continues to be at war with Activision.
.


I think this would be true if Activision had any games that are rougly comparable to ME3. You can definitely tell Command and Conquer 4 was rushed out the door to try to beat Starcraft 2 to market. EA is definitely falling all over itself to reinvent Medal of Honor as a Modern Warfare game (ironic, given Call of Duty's roots as a MOHAA clone.) EA also managed to poach most of Infinity Ward in the process.

It's also true that these kinds of pressure can cause delays, too. ME2 was kicked back a few months to not conflict with Modern Warfare 2's release. Obsidian Entertainment moved Alpha Protocal way, way back; it's original release was right around DAO.

LOL ya it was near the begiging of the poll, then after that it has been Tali, Miri, Tali, miri ect. I expect go in the lead soon, then Miri to be back in the lead. Miri and Tali both have huge fanbases and are the most popular ME2 female characters.

Probably for that US-only contest awhile back.

Don't know for sure, didn't participate in it.

She looked hot in that episode. Kinda weird how Chuck started drinking Johnny Walker due to the stress of being a spy, then they never went back to it again.

Waited a long, long time for Starcraft 2. Starcraft 2 was announced long before I had even played ME1.

Blizzard can get away with this sort of long development cycle partly because of its excellent reputation as a developer, and partly because World of Warcraft is like printing money. Some gamers might go so far as to say because WoW is so profitable, Blizzard actually doesn't feel *any* pressure to release a game.

Developers and publishers are in a tight spot, because they've committed all their resources, but don't get any return on investment until the game is released. For a major, AAA title, they may not even recoup all of their investment in sales; this is where DLC comes in (and, to a lesser extent, developing new IP.)

Bioware has an excellent track record with a lot of hits recently. I'm sure they'll have enough time and resources to make ME3 awesome, but I don't think they can afford to sit on the franchise forever.


This is why I hope the new KOTOR MMO takes off. I don't really care about it specifically since I hate the idea of paying $30/month to play a game I purchased, but because it will take a lot of pressure off Bioware's development teams.

Oh and Starcraft 2's release date just came out. It's funny because I remember getting excited about a sequel to Starcraft 1 in oh... 1999.

She seemed to open up on more than a
professional level right after Freedom's Progress to me. Before that, it
was all business, don't want to be friends. After that she's pretty
friendly.

Or do you mean, open up on more than just a casual
coworker level?


I mean where she cares about him beyond it being her professional responsibility. I don't necessarily mean romantically, but on a personal friendly level.

Also, can't believe this thread's still going. The first one was shut down due to it's length after only 300 pages or so.

BioWare Bazar. It was open only to residents of the US( the "community") excluding New York and California.

Bioware mods probably gave up. The Tali thread is pushing 4000 pages. I only realized this thread existed at about 1200-1300 pages.

They must view these threads as zombies or something then. :D

Shut a 1000 page thread down, and another 100+ page thread just pops up in the next day or two.

It's from an episode of Chuck. She's in "The Castle", a secret CIA base located under a frozen yogurt store :?. The idea isn't as stupid as it sounds when you see how they use it on the show.

Edit: Scratch that, she's in the back of a CIA truck. Just realized I was thinking of the wrong episode.
