Less systems means less impulse buying too! To be honest (and humble), I've been pretty happy with my game purchases over the past little bit. Not many I can think of off the top of my head that I haven't enjoyed.... It's easier to be picky when not being blasted in 4 different directions from quality titles. Plus my TV sucks. My monitor is seriously better, and it's just an ordinary 17" CRT

I'm thinking on reinstalling it...but I don't really have the time. I never did finish it, because I got distracted and when I came back I had no idea wtf I was doing (journal mode sucked). The last time I played it though I was working nights at a local restaurant and wasn't going to school, so I'd get home from work at like 3 AM and play until 7 or so

Hear hear! I want to be able to use Force Persuade for more....promiscuous....activities

To be honest though, it's by choice. Most games I prefer are PC games, and most of the console games that I am interested in playing have PC versions. There's the odd game I miss out on, but meh. Probably better for the bank balance.

Coupled with that 95% concealment ring that you get off that guy that tricks you into going to the bottom of a lake thing or whatever and they try robbing you, I was pretty scary :D If there was ever the possibility of me not winning the fight, I just used that ring and beat the crap out of the guy since he couldn't react. The ring was rather goofy Still, I can imagine the buzz about a duel between me and their toughest guy, and the anti-climax of us rushing each other, me swinging, and him dying

"Whoa! You were almost a Jill Sandwich!" I don't have a cube unfortunately. I'm console impaired (or deprived).

Crusader: No Return? It has to be an 'R'

Hahahaha. My enchantments were always additional damage to my melee attack...never ranged. My Daikatana did like an extra 75 damage in every element, or something goofy like that. I remember fighting a guy in a duel in Vivec just after getting the sword, and I killed him in a single attack

I think primacy still plays a big deal. Especially when nostaliga kicks in. (I think this has a lot to do with people loving the original trilogy so much more than the prequels, even though they too have bad acting and goofy romance dialogue and the like). But of course it's always possible to recognize a future game as being better, and then it becomes the new standard bearer I didn't care much for RE3....but I really liked RE2. But after playing RE2, I couldn't really go back and play RE1. The little things like actually being able to get a zombie off me in RE2 was appreciated. My last time playing RE1, I was "juggled" between 2 zombies and there was nothing I could do about it. Basically, one zombie would attack, and when finished the other would attack, and then back to the first. It was so irritating that I just gave up, and have never played the game since. I have never beaten it :\

Sort of. You can pay a small amount of money and have all your talents get reset and you can respecify. The best for rebuilding your character is probably Guild Wars, at least of what I've seen so far. I like both GW and WoW, and I actually subscribed to WoW despite vowing I never would

Looked like a woman wearing a thong with a towel. I see no actual sex. The closest one would be the peep show in the Red Light District (Episode 1, Level 2), and even then that's just a woman's head moving back and forth. The only nudity in the game is when you get close to one of the "Killll Meeee" women that is tied to a pole, and you only see her after Episode 1

Crusader: No Remorse (or it's sequel, Crusader: No Regret)

I'd like to see Alderaan for no other reason than the fact that it gets blown up but we never really see it :D

Of course it does, years ago there was not such a push towards not having some content. Take the issues that Rockstar taken with GTA:VC because the Haiti or Cuban community was "offended" by it. Sex in game ... the only game I seen something close to it was in Mafia (that was not developed by a american company), The Singles and GTA:SA had sex but it was "edited out", when you have M rated games that have sexual themes but refuse to show then ... well its stupid. Problem with the gaming industry its became just like the movie industry, thing are done to please certain demographics and some things are simply taboo ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sex in Duke Nukem?

Hahahaha. Clearly. That's because you played it first. I prefer RE2 over RE1 because I played it first. It's the standard by which you will judge all others.

UZI's??? I usually prefer melee combat in fantasy games, so I had mad melee skills. My Daikatana was pretty sweet (if damned heavy)

Why? Don't we all like being uber-powerful

Point taken.

I'm currently between semesters of CompSci. I'm working with my professor about AI in RTS games :cool: We're currently looking at pathfinding abstractions :D

Ah yes, that makes perfect sense

How can you say that Duke Nukem Forever won't be "real" Duke Nukem?

Not bad. A bit verbose Although I'm kind of anti-Ebon Hawk

I always thought it sort of resembled the T-800 exoskeleton

You can't make a claim like that, until you actually see the game.

My local blockbluster lends out the first disc for free, as they KNOW you'll be coming back :D
