Morgoth

Well, and what if you're in a plane or train or some hotel that hasn't WiFi? Can't play Diablo 3 there.

Portal 2 is now available permanently for 29,99 EUR. Go get it if you haven't already!

Gamepro Xbox 360 review (German) Edit: The score is 90% I found out.

Montreal something. Doesn't matter. She's pretty, that's what matters.

Noice, didn't know Montreal is one hub you can visit. I wonder if they'll all speak French, and whether there will be a Jade Raymond cameo...

Dishonored and the Importance of Creative Control They better show some gameplay at the Quakecon or else.

I really enjoyed playing D2 back then with a couple friends over B.net, even with a lousy ISDN connection.. Sadly, my friends nowadays don't play video games, and I'm not really keen on playing with some jerks and strangers.

Some new Dishonored screenshots, I believe:

Source Code. From the same director as "Moon". Overall very enjoyable movie.

Actually, I'm not too worried about the "always-online" policy. I'm more worried about whether the game will be as good as D2 was back in 2000. There will be a Beta soon I think and hopefully I get into it this time.

The thing is, even if the US is commited to cut, say 2 trillion dollars in a decade, it won't be enough. The US economy right now is very weak and will grow weaker, meaning the deficit will just grow bigger. You'd have to cut 20 trillion per decade to get out of the hole, but that is an impossibility. Hence, default will be inevitable at some point.

Is it true there won't be CGI cutscenes this time around (except intro and outro maybe)? Somewhere I read they make sepia style hand-drawn cutscenes now. No wonder really, since Blizzard's cutscene team is mightily busy with making the in-engine cutscene for Starcraft 2. Still, kinda sad, I thought the D2 cg cutscenes were really impressive and one of the reasons to finish a chapter.

I can even get it cheaper if I want to.

I'm not going to stare at a tree trunk for 5 minutes now. Isn't that basically the same as voxels, or "pixols" they use in ZBrush?

Still everything happy and dandy on the blessed island of Australia?

Morgoth?

Not sure if serious. You have to convert that data to quads/triangles anyway, because that's the way the GPU processes the data. Meaning no 1:1 conversion, hence bull****.

Lvl up to 100, sell your Hammer of Morgoth for 5 bucks, repeat. Yeah, sounds like a career plan.

So, Dave Hoffman spearheaded Supreme Commander 2 and DSIII. Both games which horribly failed. Why is that guy still working at SE?

Timesplitters 4 to be announced soon? Never played the series, but it could be fun. Think about it. Uzi-wielding-monkeys powered by CryEngine 3

Reading how much trouble SLI/Crossfire often causes, I wouldn't go for it.

That's right. And you only needed to be online for login and for stupid achievements. It didn't kick you out of the game should your connection fail.

Even if you just want to play singleplayer? Blizzard just got one customer less.

Woah, that was bad. Relic should just stick to making RTS games.
