Eek, don't strip JE's small amount of RPGness it still has! Main reason why it's so simple is because there is too few variables. Body, mind and spirit sounds and feels wuxia enough, but it still should've been more complex. 3 variables is way too few. Even one more would've helped, preferably more. And I don't mind the fact its very light in rules. However JE's is still above my border for acceptable "ligthness". I like your idea. They are not too hard to implement and not too complex for action crpg. I hope JE2 will have something like that. Few add-ons like that would really enhance action. Overall (yeah yeah, I'm repeating myself) I think that action is good, even with its clear flaws. I disagree that game would've been any better without RPG elements. Romances are silly. I greatly prefer K2 style over ego stroking, silly Bioware way does them. :sad:

Eh, no. JE's combat has its flaws but overall its quite awesome. All I need is more variety. And Jade Golem is ridiculously overpowered. Well, I don't whine because it saved me in Imperial Engagement. I really want to know what would be better way make combat for this. Turn based? There isn't more ridiculous thought than turn based Kung Fu. Kotor styled real/turn based hybrid based on stats? Meh, this is kung fu game and action RPG. I want to throw punches and kicks by myself in this kind of games. There really isn't another option. And it must not become too hard/complex, because this is RPG, not e.g. Ninja Gaiden. Attack-Power Attack-Block is simple but it works like clockwork. I think this needs more variety (e.g maybe two kind of blocks and normal attacks?) but not very much. Besides, combat is very fun and it's all that matters. I've never been player who gets kicks from ultra hard battles and solving them, all I want is that combat is fun and challenging enough. Apart from JE I'm eagerly awaiting C&C3

Hardly. It was UNPLAYABLE on my computer (which was close to recommended specs) upon release. It was BUGGY AS HELL. And finally, it didn't make me skip school, work, food, water, and other basic needs for days and nights - which Civ II did in its time. I got bored with Civ IV after two weeks and haven't played it since. Buggy? It wasn't terribly buggy IMHO although I never played unpatched game. And maybe you're just older and more "experienced" player. Longer you play games more harder it is to get hooked (in that scope) again. Sad really. From objective point of view Civ 4 is best. It has more improvements you can count, its UI is extremely good and yet it sustains its...well, "civ" feeling. I could as well quote their synopsis since I totally agree with it. Of course, there isn't such thing as bad civilization Other lists were even more... disappointing

Civilization IV is best of the series. Fallout was 5th, woohoo! But RTW...? No Doom? Only one adventure game and it didn't even make it to the top ten? TIE Fighter is totally awesome and must be in top ten. XCOM best PC Game evar? Well, I've only heard good things about it but... oh well, I haven't played the game so who I am to judge. And no Command & Conquer! Meh, quite disappointing list. :sad: Did you just rank BG1 higher than BG2?

Hahaha! Our swedish friend was BUSTED!

WHAT?! How is that possible? Was my version flawed or something? I didn't touch the difficulty settings, so I assume they were on normal, but I definitely breezed through everything the game threw at me using the same tactics over and over: Jump around. If the enemy flashes blue, quick attack. If they have shield up, slow attack. Jump around some more. End of fight. That goes for the entire game as well. Until I finally got Jade Golem form Imperian Engagement before challenging Ravager for Champion title was unbeatable for me. I tried it numerous times past these last four days. Few hours ago I finally won it! Ha! No small thanks to Jade Golem, it really solved my problem with Elephant and Frog Demon, especially frog demon. Even though frog was third of many opponents to enter the ring and by itself it is easy opponent, in long run it was destructible little beast. It attacks so damn fast, takes damage like terminator and slings that stupid tongue like there's no tomorrow. And since support styles are no use against them which usually have major part in my tactics (especially Heavenly Wave and oh so lovely Paralysing Palm). So, I can easily bring it down with Chi enhanced strikes with my pimped out thousand cuts using focus, but the problem is that it really drains my chi and focus which are quite important later in Engagement. Jade Golem solved this problem. Just swing axes few times and voila! Both focus and chi saved for next targets. Still far from easy, but beatable. Further I get in this game more I love it. Bioware has crafted magnificent story and Game runs perfectly and I have encountered very few bugs so far

HL2? Check. Good, it should be there. BG2? Check. It too should be there. Simcity 2000? WTF? Starcraft? Check, it (too) should be there Age of Kings 2? :lol: :lol:

Luckily so

1 - 43 ( I love that kitten) 2 - 42 (yup, I want it back. Too bad I couldn't find any "doublesmilies" with quick search. Strange because I used it a lot :sad: ) 3 - 40 (although it was overused it's still great. Deserves its comeback ) 4 - 9 (although isn't this here already? ) 5 - 6 6 - 31 (my MSN "blahbla"! ^_^ ) 7 - 38 8 - 41 9 - 45 (mods need their fun too) 10 - 48 Don't care about rest

+ StarCraft and a Civ Agreed. I bet Civ 4 is there, propably some others too. Indeed, where are adventure games? Sam & Max!? Monkey Islands!?

Of course they aren't happy. These aren't Barbies and Kens But I agree that elves should've more beatiful faces. However, elves need too few of these "normal faces". And if you didn't know all the characters/monsters etc. were very true for original 3.5 edition artwork so OE isn't sole reason. Oblivion still has worst models ever

A Perfect Circle - Imagine

Elves aren't very beautiful, I agree, but as a whole I like models. Its little bit ridiculous. Before game was released there was whining "I want to be able to play as average/normal looking person". Nowadays people tend to cry after their Virtual Barbies and Kens

Now the list includes game 25-11, top ten still unknown. I agree with some of their choices, disagree completely with others. SS2 should've been in Top 10. Oh, and wtf are Oblivion and Call of Duty doing on that list? And no Silent Storm? Racism against turn based combat rages on (I don't believe that its in top ten) :sad: I believe we'll see at least one Fallout in top ten, both HL's and possibly BG2. Oh, and Doom naturally.
