@jay_ray: I agree the timing feels a bit sloppy just to get a cameo in, but I could still see them getting on board. Leia being near the battle, especially on the flagship, seems a bit more crazy to me. I always figured they got the plans from a smaller group fleeing the Empire, and the chase continued from there, but I guess the canon is now that her ship was in the battle. I'm cool with it because it makes for a great climax, even if it falls apart if you think about it more critically.

And yeah if there's any real major thing that sticks out to me as not being great it's that the characters aren't as developed by the end of the movie as I would have liked.

I think it makes a lot of sense, knowing how she behaved in the original trilogy and where she ended up later on. Not flying or fighting on the ground though, she's got leadership qualities apparently.

I liked the movie and how it ended - but its not a movie I want to see again if I can help it.

There's so much awesome in Warhammer 40000, its interesting that not many games manage to capture that and deliver good, lasting gameplay. Low budgets and suspect studios often grab the license as it seems to be sold off relatively cheap. Good thing Dawn of War 3 is inc, but nothing is guaranteed. Hope there's a Last Stand mode in DoW3, it might have, as it seems to focus more on heroes to supplement regular units now.

Yes, progression/loot/customization in multiplayer matters to me. This has none of that outside the singleplayer campaign, I think.

Well, damn. Almost bought the game at the 33% off price yesterday, thanks for the heads up! This is actually the first time I've even installed Origin...have managed to avoid it until now.

You run it to play certain games and keep it closed when not. Same as Uplay. Not sure why you'd feel the need to actively avoid it...

TNT was tapping into what Twitch/YouTube Gaming/streaming services do 24/7, I enjoy watching other people play; others I guess don't like that kind of Live content. It can vary a lot in quality simply because it isn't planned out as more than 'hang out and watch us play game X for a while'.

Buying a lesser PC just for school work has never worked out for me, laptops/other PCs, I always wish I had more power to do more stuff with them once I get them.

Her age doesn't matter, to not only game but enjoy gaming she needs something solid like an i5 minimum in my opinion + SSD for the OS drive and an ok gfx card depending on what games she likes. Sure, if she's only into Minecraft and less graphics intensive games the GPU doesn't have to be a big expense in this case. But whichever you do go for, seriously get a PC with an SSD, it helps everything.

If you want a Free Office/Word-like software, I recommend LibreOffice. Its compatible with Word-files.

Should be competition with other parks, more emphasis on budgets, handling staff, managing stuff in general, buying goods for stores, setting prices, developing rides like by dedicating funds into research trees kind of like in Theme Park etc.

I played it a lot in beta, which seems like ages ago now. The guys in my class at high school were talking about it constantly and it was a social thing. I couldn't wait to get home and play. Addictive and easy to get into. It had that one-more-round thing for me, and I wanted to be good at it, also because of the social thing. It was a "cool" game to play. I played in a few semi-pro teams as well, which was a lot of fun, and I like to think I was an OK player. Nowadays it has evolved into a different beast entirely in my opinion.

That people still play it today in 2016 is blowing my mind, that it is a competitive thing that people watch online, who would have thought this back in the beta days.
