Only if they started arguing over the exact measurements of a ships nacelles and the fact Obsidian got it wrong by .2cm. While I wasn't impressed with the last episode, it don't cancel out 4 seasons of Sci-Fi goodness. dude, we are already here Stop it! Your going to make me cry.

I think Beth is finished with Star Trek games, they've shut down their Trek forums and said nothing about using the licence any more. But in the realm of dreams, a Star Trek RPG by Obsidian would be beyond awesome, because it would be about the characters, not the starships, which every other publisher/developer seems to think was the point of Trek. Also got to say, BSG would be awesome.

I don't buy that, why should there be a rule for Iron Tower studios and another for say Obsidian. If graphics don't matter it should apply to all RPGs, not just to ones made by indie companies.

Some of the best visuals in a game I've seen. Never even bothered with the story, there is better stuff to do. Agreed the manual and tutorial are atrocious, a half decent manual and a proper tutorial would of made the game more critically successful. Wrong, just wrong. Trading, exploring, business, racing and....... tour guide. Again agreed but after playing for large amount of time, you tend to not notice it. It can be, at other times it can be one of the most entertaining space sims out. Again, never bothered with the story, if you are talking about job/missions however, I've never had any problems. Mind you while saying all this, I haven't played the vanilla X3 in a looong time, so perhaps my opinion is coloured by all the mods I have for it, which are awesome by the way. Just never get the Xenon migration one.....

Not horrible, just brutal to start of with. Once you get the hang of the controls and some money in your bank, it can become addictive. But the story is bad. Nope game devs decided there wasn't a demand for them, which they are probably right. EVE is more of a strategy game TBH. There are still a few space shooters like Dark Horizon, but they kinda suck. Shows how desperate I am for space sims, I quite enjoyed it.

I thought you were comparing games to movies and books. Not other games. I loved the Zelda games. Haven't played on since Ocarina of time though. I stand corrected......

But the Zombies in Left4Dead aren't really trying to eat people in the first place.. they just want to beat you to death.. Not really zombies then are they, more like 28 days later rage men.

A healthy dose of Shadow of the Colossus along with a soul should do it, you soulless automaton! Souls are overrated.

Compared to? When compared to most other game companies they are miles and miles and miles ahead. Tim Schafer, Ken Levine, Ragnar T

Wow that was a let down, absolutely nothing special about that trailer. Maybe I need to take something while watching it....

Nope still poor. Just not laugh worthy. I really should read post dates, but had I seen that 3 yrs ago, I still would of laughed.

Well this better be as good as the first two, to make up for the fact we get no Aliens RPG.

No mods needed, best modern space sim. Its a crime the genre is dead.

Yep. It will be mediocre at best. Drakensang will probably be better then it. And people complained about NWN 2 and DA:O graphics.....

Don't try posting rationally, its of no use on a Beth bashing thread.

Yes because they are so trying to appeal to that very small crowd(which 90% of them will buy anyway). Not the 30 mil xbots, 20 mil PS3 fanboys, and the unknown millions of other PC gamers.

Welcome to the Tomb Raider experience.

Honestly Obsidian isn't mentioned a lot, in fact a lot of people think Bio made TSL and NWN 2. I can only think of 1 topic which was about them, 'Does Obsidian get enough credit' was the title, went for a few pages.

Yup, me too. Actually since I liked combat mechancis so much in ME, I'm bit worried as they have changed 'em. It sounds the same to me the only thing they have changed is ability usage/selection, which you can appently now change use without pausing. They've also added the abilty to issue orders to squad members individually, but I think that was already implemented in the PC version. It's too early for the 'Krogan sex' trailer...

Not underestimating, thinking realistically. Level raise? Perhaps. Improved crafting? Maybe. Removal of VATS? No. Changing from real time to turned based? No. There will be minor adjustments/improvements to the game, just nothing game changing. As for settling for a 'glorified expansion', that is exactly what F:NV will be and there is nothing wrong with that. This won't be Van Bruen no matter how many wish it would be.

Both were sequels, a more appropriate example would be comparing NWN2 to MOTB.

Thats a pretty good list of VA there, no big names (well Hong has done a lot), but actors that have done good jobs in the past.

Anyone that thinks this game is going to be anything more then FO3 in a different setting is not thinking realistically. Sure the story, dialogue and NPCs can/should be improved, but thats it, game mechanics will remain the same. Now if Obsidian was maiking Fallout 4, well that would be a different story.
