WILL THE ALMIGHTY

Come to think of it, I kinda want to play a Mandalorian.

Amazing. Bethesda got difficulties backwards.

I kinda lol'd. Besides, Faith is the least sexualised female character ever. "Sexy" wasn't even considered for her character. She's not ugly (IMO, her eyes look weird), but that explains the fact her breasts are not the size of Lara Croft's.

I know, but it doesn't really work as Arcanum already has them... I know that you know, but do you know that I know and that is was half the joke? ... pointless debating, much? I wouldn't even mind a steampunk clone of Mass Effect at this point.

Gears 2 is pretty hilarious when it wants to.

Really, try the demo at least before passing judgement on the game. It's the kind of game you either love or hate, and it's also the kind you can't really know what it feels like if you never actually play it. In any case, it's nice to play something completely different.

Arcanum with guns? Doesn't make sense, somehow... It's a play on the "Oblivion with Guns" thing for Fallout 3... But I really think an RPG in a steampunk setting would be great. Steampunk settings feel too unused.

Story is incredibly clich

I'd enjoy anything steampunk, even if it is made by Bethesda. Go Go Arcanum With Guns

Now that's a complaint I can support. She's asian. It would be very very akward.

Bioshock is no action RPG. It's a shooter, with upgradeable abilities and weapons, but definitly not an RPG. That said, it's an amazing shooter. Just don't buy into the hype about choices, and you'll enjoy it. GoW 2... Keep it for multiplayer later. Actually, a lot of these games are very addictive. Take your time.

Really, it's mostly RE4, in space, with some kinda new interesting mechanics and a decent plot. Doom 3 is nowhere close. ... one look at the game will tell you that. It's more strategic with the dismemberment than RE4, and the zero-g sections are really nice. Atmosphere is gorgeous and yes, it has some gimmicky features like the stasis and kinetic abilities. Immersion is very present and everything but saving screens and the start screen is real-time. It's better than RE4 in terms of gameplay (IMO) and is as close to Doom 3 as any other shooter. But mostly, its nice to see EA is actually making interesting titles, and I don't mean publishing, I mean really developping them (Dead Space was made by an inhouse studio in Redwood). A good game, brings some nice additions to the survival/resident evil forumla, but not a masterpiece or anything. [/serious mode] [fanboy mode] omg **** u [/fanboy mode]

You're awfully narrow-minded, you know?

Dead Space is just so much better than the Resident Evil games. It's actually got a few innovative ideas, and just plain plays better than RE: switching weapons on the fly, moving AND shooting, dismemberment mechanic and mos timportantly, the plot and dialogue don't suck. [/fanboy mode]

Yes, but Mass Effect doesn't feel like KotOR at all. It's so action RPGish.

She was okay in V for Vendetta, I guess. Hugo Weaving was absolutly brilliant in that, so she seemed a bit... bad.

My favorite was the Burnout Review. Also, Yahtzee does occasional podcasts at Australian Gamer. Check the podcast listings, the ones with Yahtzee are pretty entertaining.

I've stopped reading Volo's post for a while now. Is that healthy?

Name one game which was **** in co-op. Having a friend playing with you makes any game fun. It's like Co-op is the "instant win" button of game design.

Isn't that one of the features of Vista?

Finished Dead Space. Let me be the first to say: Brilliant work, EA. That was amazing. I never in a million years could have seen this coming.

Still on Dead Space. Chapter is intense. The new monsters are freaking creepy, especially the morphed statis soldier zombie monster things. Sadly, only 3 chapters left.

XSI... isn't that freeware? Or at least, isn't XSI Mod Tool freeware?

Epic doesn't begin to describe that.

Will there be a roundhouse kick? ... I'm serious. This is the kind of thing you advertise on the box, one of the key features of a game.
