  1. Has the Rage stuff been shown? I wouldn't be surprised if nothing is shown as id has Quakecon.
  2. It's like you know precisely what to say to hurt me. Minus the massive honker on her I find her quite attractive. I just started watching Farscape and I'm enjoying it despite some lame episodes from time to time. Getting back to E3, this is just... wierd. A Batman game that has nothing to do with Batman, or anyone of note. Gotham City Imposters. Call of Duty meets Batman... what the...
  3. It never ceases to amaze me how dense people can be here. Unable to grasp a simple concept unless it is phrased in a perfect and literal sentence. I could say the sun will rise tomorrow and someone will come along to spend a page or two arguing about the poles. Then again maybe people do it just for the sake of arguing.
  4. Not to mention I was hoping for a contiuation of BiA: Hell's Highway, not this bull****. Everything about this pisses me off.
  5. I normally don't mind it when devs take new directions, but I find this to be an insult. It is essentially a fantasy about Allied soldiers acting like the Nazis they were fighting. Uhm, what? How.... exactly do you imagine the Nazis to have acted? I'm pretty sure they weren't retarded psycho clowns as horrible as they were. "I normally don't mind it when devs take new directions, but I find this to be an insult. It is essentially a fantasy about Allied soldiers acting like the concentration camp Nazis they were fighting." The majority of soldiers acted with compassion. They didn't run around like, well as C2B put it, 'retarded psycho clowns' with chainsaws butchering unarmed soldiers.

  7. Gearbox demonstrates how to destroy a franchise.
  8. Who could possibly be embarassed by saying 'Lightsaber on!'.
  9. Never tried it myself but Tom Clancy's Endwar had voice commands for selection of groupings and movements which seemed like a neat idea.
  10. Er... me. The Halo Remake as well. Most excited about Rage & Arkham City (Which looked great just now.) I hope they show some of Rage later on.
  11. Anyone play the D&D Daggerdale game? Any good?
  12. http://www.goozernation.com/video-games/in...iew-and-trailer Dragon Age II was able to balance the linear feeling by making the action fast and fun, despite the criticisms aimed at how "dumbed down" the combat in DA2 was it cannot be disputed that it was done well. DS3 doesn't seem to have it quite as locked down as DA2 did, feeling almost like a cross between a Hack'n'Slash like Baldur's Gate and Dynasty Warriors. Spamming the 'A' button kills most enemies, with the occasional 'X' or 'Y' to use special abilities That reviewer just lost all credibility with me. The last sentence fits DA2 to a 't' and yet it is a bad thing in DS3?
  13. Alpha Protocol 2 with main character voiced by Kiefer Sutherland = best game ever. Instead of Suave, Professional & Aggressive it would be yell, shoot knee cap or water board.
  14. No need to worry about meteors, plagues, nuclear or zombie apocalypses, reality television will be the end of humanity. And MMORPGs.
  15. You can also chop people's heads off in Fable, among other things if you make your character evil. A lot of games do that and it can be irritating. They can't seem to decide what age group they are aiming at and end up with dialogue that sounds like its from a kid's Saturday morning cartoon but Ultra Violence. Or some other odd combination of mature rating content and kid's stuff.
  16. Her reaction to me Oh, but it is. I've pointed it out before but plenty of companies, like Obsidian, have managed to create numerous environments with very short dev cycles. There is no excuse for not hiring another mapper or two to create extra interiors. I think they either honestly believed that gamer's didn't care (what you didn't get the complaints about ME 1 or DA 1?) or they were trying to be cheap and save a few bucks. I have no problem with companies wanting to make money but, seriously, they should have some extra change laying around to spend on their game development with all the profits they've made from their other games & mass DLC. Also, if they honestly had to cut so many corners to produce this game they either shouldn't have created it in the first place, demanded more time for development or released it as a budget game. While I focus on this problem a lot, it is just one (particularly irritating) symptom of a rushed game. The quest breaking bugs, button mashing, extremely limited scope (ONE TOWN?) and odd story twists in chapter 3 really killed the game for me. The repeating interiors, to me, stand out as the biggest 'we're a AAA developer but we're going to put as little effort into this project as possible' issue with the game.
  17. Haha, that's what happened to me with 1.1. Did you start a new game since installing the patch? Sometimes the patch changes don't seem to work reliably on current saves. They should, perhaps, but sometimes they don't. I had that problem last time I played. I heard that it had something to do with taking the feat that speeds up reloading (which I took). Certain weapons play at the fast animation (shotguns, lever actions and other 'pump' type weapons) but are actually reloading at standard rate. Basically the Perk is broken, playing correct animation speed but not actually reloading at that speed. The gun does eventually allow you to fire after the non-perk reload time is done. Don't know if this is true or not. An irritating bug as I loved the shotguns and repeaters and it would happen after every reload.
  18. Also not that crazy about TF2. The closest example of how this would play would be to download Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (Its completely free. Only problem is I don't know how many servers are up and how many of those are running unmodded) or a demo of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. Brink is essentially Enemy Territory in everything but name.
  19. *yawn* looks poo These are the same folks who made the free Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory & Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. I've yet to play any multiplayer team based shooter that has captivated me as much as those two. These are games I play for years at a time. Between the balance they put in the game and the new parkour SMART system its a Day 1 for me. If you aren't into objective team based mp games then yeah, you can ignore this one but if you love games like Enemy Territory & Team Fortress this game is right up your alley. I'd almost forgotten... ITS OUT TOMORROW! Then next Tuesday L.A. Noire & FNV: Honest Hearts. Good month for me.
  20. So Matt Rorie works at Giant Bomb now? Or was he just dropping by for his D&D knowledge? Daggerdale looks alright for a dungeon crawler but man I hope there is a bigger variety of enemies. Not gonna be fun to spend the entire gaming beating on goblins.
  21. Can't say I'm surprised by the opinion of a self avowed 'Libertarian Socialist'.
  22. I'd block it from memory too, but it serves a purpose. If there is ever a lack-luster episode I remind myself that "sure this one wasn't that great but at least it was better than THAT episode".
  23. Varric must a very lazy narrator as well - considering every house & cave looks the same. First time I've heard a reason for the repeating interiors that makes sense. Because the dev's excuses sure don't.
  24. No way that was worse than the musical episode.
  25. Yes, we wouldn't want to derail a spam bot. I'm betting we'll never see Dynamo again. Unless there are some awesome new shoes for sale at discount prices.
