Meshugger

The artist is Eric Brosius. My alltime favorite, as he did some of this stuff: http://www.thief-thecircle.com/media/music/ <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Paljon kiitoksia. I've been looking for that one for a while.

Soundtracks in general are 50% of the game experience IMO. Even FPS's need a good score (not a necessarily a grand one) to make the player immersed in the game. I can give some examples of games with excellent soundtracks that made the game much better: - Unreal 1 (Alexander Brandon) - Deus Ex 1(same) - System Shock 2 (Unknown artist, maybe the most ambient one) - Final Fantasy-series (Uematsu, very diverse) - Baten Kaitos (Sakuraba, has fimiliar style as Uematsu, but the structures of the songs might be more rock:ish) - KotOR 1 & 2 (well duh!) In RPG's, i would say that a good score is a must.

No, it doesn't. Perhaps the older versions did, I don't know, but the newer ones take way less resources than even eMule. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, i have to try it again then someday. It might've been a recource-hog, but it had nice features though.

Ha! The same happens to me. Now I find that leaving it on actually helps me fall asleep. Anyway, BitComet is for sissies. REAL men use Azureus. Aside from that, it's a much better client overall. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Azureus uses a sh*tload of memory compared to the others, no thank you. Downloading anime is usually a very slow process for several reasons: - The files are damn big, 11-12 gigs is not uncommon. Ofcourse, the quality is great with the excellent .ogg and .mkv-formats. - Most of the seeders are there just for a week max, just leaving the enthusiasts. If you want "older" anime, you just have to wait. This applies to most anime that i've download, unless it's the newest episode of Bleach (episodes can have as much as 16000 seeders) which usually comes at a rate of 800-900kB/sec.

The story was nothing to brag about. But the art direction was really good. And ofcourse seing Cloud, Tifa, Barrett, The Turks, Cid, Vincent, Aeris, Sephiroth, Yuffie and Bahamut, the King of dragons again was the best part of the movie.

Hopefully he'll do it in the vein of the borderlining cheeziness/badassness of Rocky IV. -"I must break you" -"I you can change, everybody can change"

I agree somewhat, except that a Sith soldier should no way in hell have a wisdom of 10. They might have intelligence, but mostly they're just soldiers acting out their duty, no wisdom needed.

B...b....but....Halo's my friend. :'( <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's my friend too, but people who lack any vision in gamedesign seems to copy the idea aswell.

Don't get me wrong, it worked storywise and especially gameplaywise in Halo. But it's silly to use it games such as COD2, Far Cry: Instincts especially in CRPG's.

Blame Halo.

Just make sure he doesn't get any hand any WMD or economic priviliges, and let him be an **** as much as he want. The rest of the world community should say to him: "Are you gonna bark all day, little doggy, or are you gonna bite?"

Oh dear, oh dear.

So, you DO want a KotOR III afterall, don't you

I like the last comment in the last paragraph :D

kumquatq3: the first picture in the first post is a regular sight in Finland.

Unreal 1 Since fps's are pretty disliked here, i wanted to point that one out. Excellent graphics for its time and one of the best soundtracks aswell = Very immersive shooter. //EDIT: Actually make that one of the greatest games ever.

Hahaha, 4 real?

You promised Here it goes, this not an actual discription of the story, just guidelines on which a story should be based upon in my view, considering all that Kreia said to you in the end on Malachor is true: :ph34r: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yup, agreed sounds like a great buildup for K3.

wtf... Mario and the Nintendo classics asside (that's right they came from Japan)... what about Final Fantasy and the Resident Evil series. Geezus. Japan rocks for computer games. Saying they're all into nothing but porn is kinda lame on your part. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You gotta admit that porn is a factor in a lot of their games, though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And that's been a bad thing since when...?

I'm not sure what you mean there. Was there a total dominance of japanese titles at the PC market before the original Xbox? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> When PC gaming was so popular, there was no reason to worry about western titles. But, now PC market is so small. So i worry for western gaming. I can summarize my last post like this <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok, point taken.

It's easy to see why it was a success in the US & UK compared to Japan - Americas: WAR! kids love fps, WWII and WAR! and they like PDZ and COD2. - Japan: FPS's are stupid. - Americas: We got sports! NFL, NHL and FIFA! - Japan: The framerate is poor, and we already have that on the PS2 thankyouverymuch. - Americas: We got car games with tuning, blingbling, and Fast and the ghetto-racing YO! - Japan: Ridge Racer 6 looks nice, but it comes on the PS3, no thank you. Need for Speed? tuneghettowhat? - Japan: Got any fighting games? - Americas: We got Dead or Alive 4 coming in January, better gfx, better bouncing boobies and better moves! - Japan: No Soul Calibur III with extra features? - Americas: err...no - Japen: No thank you. - Japan: Do you have JRPG's? - Americas: Yeah, several of them, filled with CGI and stuff! - Japan: where? - Americas: Late 2006 - Japan: i'll check again later. - Japan: Ok, do you have ANY RPG's? - Americas: Oblivion ofcourse, coming really soon, excellent graphics! And a FFXI beta! - Japan: Oblivion will come on the PC, and we've played the other one to death already. No thank you. - Japan: Got Metal Gear Solid? - Americas: No, but we have splinter ce... - Japan: Enough, we'll get back to you after PS3 and Revolution launch, ok? - Americas:......ok.

Enchanted Arm might interest the japanese....but it's released later in 2006 (Q2 IIRC).

Epiphany has migrated to the Bioware-forums. Or atleast at the Mass Effect forums.

Well, considering the launch-titles, it's no suprise: - Perfect Dark: Zero - Fifa 2006 - Need for Speed: Most Wanted - Ridge Racer 6 - Tetris: The Grandmaster Ace - Everyparty (Japan Only) I fail to see any japanese kid going "oooh" and "aaah" over that list.
