  1. I've been necroed!
  2. I want to give an impression of the game. When the game claims to be "mature fantasy" it's not referring to sex and cussing. It's referring to the "decisions and consequences." My Geralt recently found himself making a choice between a group of rapists, slavers, and murderers and someone who's been profiting off them (names withheld to avoid spoilers). All of their hands are dirty, but I chose the profiteer. For two reasons: 1) She's hot. 2) They're jerks. Also! Last Wish is coming to the US. Too bad it looks like it's coming May '08.
  3. I think the US version probably still has the sex. In fact, the sex isn't very racy. It's an FMV that occurs each time it happens that doesn't show much. What I imagine was censored are the cards you get for special "conquests." I don't know if they were simply censored or if the cards were removed entirely.
  4. So, apparently the editing of the english script has been confirmed multiple places: http://kotaku.com/gaming/censorship/no-pri...cher-320696.php http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?...7648&page=8 http://www.rpgcodex.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=21134 http://www.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?...mp;topic=3855.0 http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/the-witc...s-93581-p2.html Reading the excerpts, it's nothing meaningful that's been cut. However, in some cases it is the maturity of the dialogue that has been cut. A lot of flavoring dissapeared. And it appears to have been done because of agreements with Atari, not necessarilly censorship. My wager would be that it relates to voice acting costs.
  5. http://www.vpi.net/ ?
  6. New and original!
  7. I would also like to point out that 50 million Nintendo DS's have been sold, to be compared to 13 million Xbox 360s. So, there's ready potential for more people to care about Sonic RPG than Mass Effect.
  8. I think the real reason she rarely shows is because she is a female on the internet. Like Nessie and Bigfoot, this mythical creature is rarely seen outside of blurry black and white photographs.

  9. Where is Atari losing all their money?
  10. It's fascinating to learn that the antagonist of the film: Truth is stranger than fiction.
  11. American Gangster was phenomenal!
  12. Its a console game, and a hand held at that. Who gives a crap about that? If they do someone's elses IP for the PC then you have ground to stand on, Volourn. What ground do you have to stand on? Their last two games and their most recent upcoming game are all console games.
  13. I've read that there are supposedly new witnesses? Jesus Super Mario Christmas, they can't honestly be this stupid.
  14. The installation gave me two options. Easy Installation - Quick installation with default options. Custom Installation - You can customize all available options. Being the self-empowered daredevil I am, I risked the custom installation. The sheer list of options was immense. I could set the install path under Program Files, I could set the install path to another directory, I could set the install path wherever I wanted. I truly am in charge of this installation. MAD WITH POWER!
  15. Day 12: It arrived. I once again find myself jealous that Euros get sturdy DVD cases while us yanks only get crappy paper boxes.
  16. In Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass, the hero isn't Link. He's just, y'know... taking after Link.
  17. Chrono Cross, Xenogears, and Xenosaga: Episode I. I love Yasunori Mitsuda. They moved to a different composer for Episode II and III. He had his moments, but was not as good in general.
  18. I think we should all call him Pidy.
  19. I tried out the recommended Unapproachable East - Thesk last night. First player interaction I had was a guy asking me to babysit his friend for 15 coins. I'm evil, I'm broke, and I'm taking a job as a babysitter for a pittance. She seemed like a nutter, so I knew she'd make a break for the door. I kind of hope she had, because instead she decided to accuse me of plotting to rob her and hit me. Level 1 with 7 health, down on the floor. All for 15 coins. That won't even buy me a potion to heal myself back up. I'm going to murder that character when I get a chance.
  20. It was the first episode where they started incorporating user feedback.
  21. The company currently named Atari was never a console giant. It's a different company. And that's not a figurative statement.
  22. Yes, they do. Republic Command was developed in-house.
  23. Kalfear needs a hug. I think we should all give him a hug.
  24. I probably shouldn't really detail it, so as to not be offensive.
  25. Sand truly is contagious. This just about proves it.
