I was going to flip a coin between Darkside and Darque, but since Darque has effectively withdrawn, I voted Darkside.

Poor Adam. Must suck to be finally coming into your own in the big leagues only to have things cut short due to injury.

Baldurs Gate with Jade Empire-style Graphics
Not sure what you mean? If there had been a good Fallout game released that didn't strictly adhere to Fallout's interface, people likely wouldn't have cared. But since that game doesn't exist, we'll never know until Fallout 3 gets released.

IL-2 Sturmovik is an excellent game too.

What of the Main Protagonist?
I haven't been following NWN2 development that much. How possible is it to just disregard the current combat system?

Aren't we getting a "beta-tested" version from Europe sometime soon?

My God kept repeating why the sky is blue, but when I went to show you, it seemed to have fixed itself, so it was ultimately a lot less funny EDIT: Nevermind...my copy and paste seemed to "fix it"- Your personal kingdom-nation

I know there are some that refuse to take back opened PC software, but those aren't the places I buy my PC software from (like I return any of it anyways though) usually. Do these places still accept returns on opened console games too? I mean with HDs becoming popular and modding consoles and whatnot, it certainly does seem as though it's just as easy to make illegal copies of it as it is with PC software. Places like EB games (at least in my neighborhood) will still buy older games, though you won't get much for them.- Game Length
I believe they're planning on rectifying those faults for Oblivion, if I'm not mistaken.- Baldurs Gate with Jade Empire-style Graphics
It is a long game, and while I haven't played it recently, I still have great memories from it. Full physics and Source effects would be sweet. With lip-synching and full voice overs to boot!!- Your personal kingdom-nation
That's quite the tax rate you have going there. Don't know if Allanitar agrees with your complete control over your economy though, while I do like the strong social support net.- Your personal kingdom-nation

Can you blame him Hemsky had a great game by the sounds of it against Vancouver, and wowsers did Peca ever roof an amazing breakaway. By that ability alone he's already way better than Marchant :D Getting geeked up for the season. My roommate and I even subscribed to cable, just for the sports stations. And I also have tickets to the game on the 21st against Colorado. GOOOOO OILERS!- Baldurs Gate with Jade Empire-style Graphics
Sort of like Ender said, if the game is good, you'll get over the interface changes. Ultima VII was a big surprise for its interface, but in the end it became easily my favourite Ultima game (only rivalled by Serpent Isle, the quasi-sequel), and one of my favourite games of all time. Good games are good games. People will soon forget, especially if the interface is actually more intuitive. Unless your names is Hades. EDIT: As for Gorth's statements, I wouldn't disagree. But those are more design decisions, rather than "nice graphics" and whatnot. I'd happily play a fully 3D, Source/Unreal/Oblivion Engine game of Baldur's Gate, if it still had its mechanics like full party control and whatnot.- Nur Ab Sal's first KOTOR mod
Meh, it's always cool getting something to work properly, especially if you don't have much experience doing that sort of stuff.- Battlefront II
If there's nodes ala UT Onslaught, then I'd consider it.- Game Length
Hmmm, I would tend to agree. Huge amounts of time in many of the older games could be spent effectively doing nothing, wandering aimlessly without even finding a generic mob. To some though, this type of exploration is very popular, and even I don't mind it too much, as long as there's something to do at the end of my journey. A huge empty wilderness that is ultimately a dead end would definitely be a dud.- Why twitch gamers suck
I know a few places in my area that will take returns on opened computer software. Though it's only for cash value, and within a period of time. All of them allow for replacements based on damaged software, meaning you can replace it with the same copy of the game. Unopened software can usually be exchanged for that dollar value. If you want cash, then it's a little tricker (as businesses like to hold on to cash). My local EB Games does buy back PC games though.- Your personal kingdom-nation
