  1. Great game Vice City. The 80's tracks are timeless stuff
  2. Well after Gothic 3, I'm back to playing City of Heroes/ Villians MMO again.
  3. Heh? Nines Rodriguez is anything but what u'v mentioned up there. Pretty civilized cat if you ask me.
  4. Failed in allot of aspects? Lolz you know b4 I was defending this game, thinking that the same devs who made Gothic 1 would at least make a worthy successor. How is it that the first game in the series has more story & plotline than its steroid jazzed descendant? It
  5. Chose Gamespot as they give balanced reviews of games. Well most of the time. For instance when every other US game site was shoving dung on Gothic 3 and gagging over Oblivion like whores, Gamespot went against this trend. In so doing they were able to look at Gothic 3 objectively and review it accordingly. Plus I've been a fan of their's for almost 6yrs. They also provide very good crpg walkthroughs, like Desslocks Baldur's Gate walkthrough etc.
  6. Interesting. Definitely one to look forward to. Providing J.E actually has the time to finish it.
  7. More of the same old stale stuff being force fed to us by Bethesda. A mediocre addon, for an even more second-rate game. People will always be gullible. Bethesda spends more time and money on hyping this tripe than actually making a good game and ppl swallow it all, hook line and sinker. Smh. Radient AI my foot.
  8. LOL no <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No? Is there currently something better available from ATI than the X1950 Chip? Read this, you jerk: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Isn't calling someone "jerk" merely over dissent of opinion considerably harsh? Jeez.
  9. So the mighty Brujah are no more in the requiem WoD? Sad indeed, for the world has lost the noblest of vampyr from fabled Carthage. :'(
  10. Crushes them? I suppose you would be right if Gothic 3 and indeed the entire Gothic series was centered around parties the way DnD is. Gothic has always been based on a single player character, it's not DnD. So expectations for parties DnD style are vain.
  11. You can't trust all these so called review sites to deliver a valid and unbiased verdict of Gothic 3. Pick up the game and see what it's about for yourself.
  12. Mines an old one had it from my uni days. Apparantly its magna carta a korean game
  13. Ah well its most likely a windows RunDLL32.EXE issue, some thing in the registery corrupted or broken. Happens to me with different software sometimes. So its nothing to do with NWN2 imo. Hmm where is a all this venom coming from? lolz a month ago you could be seen on bio boards vindicating nwn2 against its n00b detractors <a task I've only just begun recently myself, couldn't stand idly in the face of clueless n00bs>
  14. Lmao, I must be dreaming. Never thought I'd see the day when magical Volo would endorse G3 over NWN2 The way he was going on about G3 on release you'd be forgiven for thinking he hated the game cause of the bugs alone. Best npc Khelgar? Ok I think the lovable dwarf deserves it. Though a close 2nd imo would be the enigmatic Ammon Jerro. I think crpg of the year should go to NWN2 easy. The industry cats need to get their collective heads out of their behinds and recognize greatness when it graces their presence. All this politics in games is just wack. Oblivion best crpg of 2006? No way! Doesn't install? What did u do to your gaming rig? Perhaps you could do with an upgrade?
  15. That's because the game wasn't very hard. :whistle: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hmm at least I didn't puke in disgust the way I did when I was playing the original NWN, the battle encounters in that game lacked any real challenge and any visceral touch. Anyone remember just how easy it woz to down the dragons in that game? I have some love for NWN, but after BG2? Boy was I disappointed with Bio. Obsidian redeemed the NWN franchise with this good sequel. 3 cheers for Ammon Jarro. Agree battles could be more challenging.
  16. Have u played the Gothic series oh! intrepid gamer? Uh? Just wow. <_<
  17. Ahem! <Clears throat> I've almost finished the OC, been playing for the last 2 wks. While I'm no great lover of PnP table top AD&D, I did enjoy the I.E games <way more than is normal for a rational person, lost count of how many times I've replayed Icewind Dale 2 > actually these were my first forays into the land of forgotten realm DnD high fantasy. After ToB I was of the personal opinion that Bioware could do no wrong, that they were invincible. NWN dropped in 2002. It was 3D yes, but the magic of the I.E games was no where to be seen in the NWN OC and the outdated graphics didn't help much either. In some aspects it was a good game but given the past achievements of Bio I expected much more. Needless to say I was disappointed. I could mention KOTOR as it was later developed by Bioware, but it is beyond the scope of this post. <a good game nonetheless> Late 2006 NWN2 comes to a store near you, developed by non - other than Obsidian. After seeing some of what this new incarnation has to offer I've formed my scholarly opinion. <Sand's voice> You know something? NWN2 delivers. This is what I expected from Bioware back in 2002 when the original dropped. I could go on but this post is lengthy enough already. " PS: T had Trias the betrayer, heck even the Nameless one was envious of him <me I was just awe struck>. NWN2 has Ammon Jarro and once again I had to lift my jaw of the floor. NWN2 for me at least, is the spiritual successor of the I.E games and thanks to Obsidian my AD&D Forgotten Realm's journey is not yet over.
  18. I really have to wonder at all the above people who make eloquent but ultimately vacuous speeches on justifications for the genocide by US of the American natives. Regardless of your perspective, genocide for any reason, at any point in time is amoral. It is a most reprehensible act deriving from bigotry and bloodthirstiness. Any society which seeks to condone or ratify it is unequivocally corrupt to its core. Alexander the Great, reputedly the greatest conqueror the world has ever witnessed didn't go around annihilating indigenous peoples of the lands he came across on his military campaigns! He conquered Egypt and established the Greco-Egyptian Ptolemaic dynasty from which the legendary Cleopatra descended. He subjugated ancient India in an epic battle. The conquered Indian prince was then brought before him and Alexander asked,
  19. Yeah I know. Lmao so stale.
  20. The term "Prussia" was still used to designate the political region of that time.
  21. I answered your question directly. Saying otherwise is just theatrics on your part. As to the pretext for the reasons for the rise and subsequent actions of the Third Reich, history bears witness to this. It is a well documented fact. There is no need for me to hide behind
  22. Hmm. You do know of the defeat of Prussia in WW1 and subsequent exacting measures taken against them by their subjugators? Well this was one of many pretexts for the rise of Nazism and the Third Reich.
  23. The purpose of the Latin phrase I provided was relevant to the statement it was appendaged to. In no way did it infer aspects of intellectual superiority over others participating in this discussion, on my part. I am free to express my self in as long as I do not directly insult anyone. There is certainly no need for your agitation / implied inferiority just google the Latin phrase if you can't understand it. Peace.
  24. That is a contradiction in terms. History is essentially the catalogue of actions perpetuated by individuals / groups of individuals/ nations in the past. These actions/histories have cascading effects. They dictate if you will; the current state of reality. Besides one mans justification is another
  25. You, as a person, can't. Your nation, however, can. The intersection When US nationalists deny other nations the right to do what the US did a hundred years ago in order to get to where it is now - that's a form of hypocrisy. You might argue that the moral incentives have changed, but when moral incentives are defined by the victors - that' s a hard argument to make. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Vae Victus
