Custom UI anybody?

Would be nice, especially considering how nice some of the original UI elements looked during the design phase, but it's not something MxO supports at all.

Help with Cinematics

I'm not sure what's causing your inability to see the cinematics in game, as most people who can't see them can't see any of them not just certain ones. (Could perhaps be a linking/file move problem the devs will have to look into? *shrug*...

Gears Of War 2

Definitely interested I'm not really sold on it being much of an evolution from the first game, but just for the campaign and co-op stuff alone it should be great.

Underworld Rise of the Lycans

Really liked the first one, even though based on the trailers I was expected a little more of a Matrix with vampires/werewolves and that's not exactly what I got. The loveliness of Ms. Beckinsale easily glossed over the imperfections. The...
