Mamoulian War

It still amazes me, how many people have problems with a rapist as a hero of the game, but mass murderer is ok... both are illegal activities, but one is frowned upon and other is praised by the western media... hypocrisy at it's finest... disclaimer: this does not mean in any way that i condone raping, nor murdering...

I do think that every MATURE person has enough intelligence to judge, if this sort of entertainment is suited for him or not, and does not need any government oversight over his enterntainment decisions. And I do think that every MATURE person has enough intelligence to keep his own children away from such sort of entertainment, and does not need any government oversight over his parental decisions.

when we use some statistical guessing MW sold 5M+ copies (but every single copy has to be connected to Steam to play) 53,238 96,304 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - Multiplayer 548 864 Assassin's Creed II 538 898 The Settlers 7: Paths to a Kingdom that could theoretically mean that both game sold about 45000 copies on Steam... But not every game has to be connected to Steam... so my non-educated-out-of-ass-pulled guess might be 150K-200K games sold in total for each title... if that is enough sales to justify the cost of maintenance and customer support for the DRM servers i have no clue...

Witcher2, FF versus XIII and hopefully Dissidia 2

What is so special with "CECH-2100" model of the PS3? Rumored to have a 45nm GPU. Thus, it will use less current than the previous models? Tall about being frugal If it is true, it will use less power, and is 200g lighter, not much, but with all the stuff i have running in my flat, every move into power-efficiency on my part is worth the wait

Finnished FFVIII replaying FFVII and waiting for PS3 model CECH-2100 release in EU to finaly start playing FFXIII

This looks amazing, but with the time how long detailed games like FF XIII have been in development with current technology, i am realy wondering how long would the graphical designers take, to create a single model out of millions of points... not to mention the whole game, whe you would need billions^billions of points to create whole scenery without copy/paste... Creating 1 model and Copy/Paste would look pretty awful imo... So... how... magic... supercomputers ??? i was not talking about machines... but about humans (graphical designers), who have to manualy create the models... When you have to work for a month to create realistic looking model with tens of thousands of polygons how long they would need to create model from millions of points???

In other news, EA is planning to sell you demos of their games for 10-15USD http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/27759/A...me_Launches.php

With little bit effort all they would need is to do the same thing, what they do for free WoW servers... just listen to the network traffics when playing legal game and storing all downloaded content... one playthrough should be enough, but someone had to bother first

You were manipulated from begining by Elone, and only because she wanted to force Laguna to stay with her mother, and make them not die this way... Which ended up impossible to her... Ultimecia was mentioned for the first time on DISC 3 AFAIK... But wasn't Ultimecia looking for Ellone because her power was necessary for Time Compression? And Ellone was at the orphanage run by Edea? Dangit, my brain hurts. Yes Ultimecia was looking for her, and yes she was at the orphanage, but for the 1st time player is noticed about ultimecia is when you for the first time visit White SeeD ship, and IIRC that is on Disc 3, before that not even Elone knows about Ultimecia

I played FFXIII for only 30 minutes or so, and i realy liked the combat system, so i think it is worth to give it a shot... About FFXII... it's very hard to recommend or not... my first playthrough i was totaly disapointed and bored... 2 years after i played it for second time and my feeling about the game was totaly opposite... i realy do not know why... I just simply loved it...

I hope it's not true, i would rather see them working on FFXV and FFXVI...

Calax, i couldn't say it better +1

The news, that most of you already know, but whatever ... http://kotaku.com/5496079/command--conquer...softs-awful-drm

You are doing it wrong. Here's the right way: Thanks, I already got the Vodka and Apocalypse Now recommendation, along with Beer and Bond movies and Absinthe and Gabriel. Vodka/Absinthe and DAA might be a surprisingly good combo. Just be sure, that before you start to play to cover the keyboard and monitor with some kind of transparent plastic thingie... you never know whenever this comes handy... especialy if you change the combo into Vodka+Absinthe and DAA

That's one of the reasons i love FF franchise so much, it's so much different from average western RPG cliche where you are the only one who can save the universe... but yes i would miss the games like IWD, Torment, BG, Drakensang, Witcher, Fallout, ToEE if I never played them...

If i would be owner of Ubi game, the only acceptable reimbursement for the downtime would be patched offline mode...

There is for the Wii, I'm not sure about the other consoles. Or I'm sure there isn't for the PS3, since it remains uncracked afaik. I have no clue about the 360 though. afaik all you need for 360 is firmware update for the DVD drive

Thank god we never had one of those in America.

Do you know, that you just said the same thing as i did, but just different words?
