Alpha Protocol should feel like Alpha Protocol, not Deus Ex.

I'm normally not one for drooling over graphics.... but... HOLY **** Gears 2 looks really badass good!

Hey, I totally forgot about that.... but the game forced it upon me!

Playing now Gears of War 2. It's definitely better than the first one. More later... Also tried to play Oddworld Munch's Oddysee. It renders the graphics, but doesn't output the sound properly. The first level (in the cave) worked fine, now I barely hear any sound anymore. What a shame, I really really wanted to play that game. But no sound, no fun.

27 hours straight through? It's a wonder you didn't drop dead. Man, I barely have the patience to play a game longer than a single hour these days...

White Wolf is also super busy co-working on the WOD MMO, so they probably couldn't supervise another WoD game as well. Activision? Since the merger with Blizzard they now only pursue deals they can exploit for 10 years. See CoD, Guitar Hero etc.

Tony Jay...it doesn't ring. But Cain's voice actor (Simon Templeman) had some great performance.

I doubt Hamas represents the interest of all Palestinian people. I don't even want to know how much deception and corruption it took to get them "democratically elected". Lol.

Blood Omen 1+2 were great. Didn't like the Soul Reavers series though.

"What's funny is that you hardly any reporting or condemnation of Hamas rocket attacks until Isreal responded in force. Then all of assudden you get a spamming of 'all violence must stop'. L0L" Now that sentence didn't really make complete sense but let me just say that someone who prays hate and violence will just exactly get that in return. Palestina had enough chances to accept peace and aknoweledge the Israel state. But no, they keep training new people and send them into certain death against a superior might. I don't feel pitty for these people.

True, but you can make sure those who are getting harm deserves it. For example after WW2 it would have been a better punishment for Germany, Italy, and their allies to lose land and form the Jewish state there instead of the Middle East, taking land from the Arabs who have long since claimed that territory for centuries and did nothing in WW2 to deserve the land stolen from them. What a rubbish. Taking country away will only piss people off. Besides, there were hardly any Jews left in Central Europe. Now the dilemma that Israel faces today is attributed to the fact that it is surrounded by underdeveloped Islamistic countries. The Hamas and other organizations keep firing their crappy rockets into Israel, not mourning their own dead and just keep doing the same mistake again and again by starting new attacks. Not that I think Israel isn't without flaws, but I can certainly understand the the folks there are under constant stress and need to do something about it. Does it need the whole Arabic world to be eradicated until there's peace?

Not before Bioware snatches it away. Or even collaborates with MS again.

Got marked by Baywatch or what?

Yeah we just talked about it a bit in another thread. The game is still a good year away though, but it sounds very interesting. Oh and Rockstar is publishing it, not developing.

So, officially, Obsidian has Alpha Protocol and Aliens RPG in production. Anyone know of any new glimpse for a new project? Kotor3 would be cool, but LA already is married with Bioware so it might just not happen. BG3? new IP? Come one dear Devs, please throw us a little bone!

Someone came up with a Film Noir idea.... so I was quickly reminded by LA Noire. But whatever. NWN3 it shall be then. Meh.

Well, there were assassination attempts. There were resistance groups who collaborated with the Brits and Americans by sharing keys for important codes. Fabric workers started to hijack productions (i.e. disabling handgranates), Officers of former Austria and elsewhere started openly questioning the methods Nazis use and assisted work with the resistance instead then there was a huge starvation everywhere and "rumours" that Jews and other rebellious elements didn't actually get sent into some re-education schools, but were murdered in KZs instead. All in all, people started to look through to the real nature of the Nazis (not that people already knew there was something foul before, but this time they actually started talking and questioning it), and so on. On top of that, hundret thousands soldiers got killed for what? Not for the better good of Nazi Germany, but for a regime of madman that were Alien to the German and Austrian people. The Nazis didn't care about their people, they were mad, they were Alien. It only lastet a few years because of paranoia and fear induced into society, but you can't keep up a stable country for that very long. No 70+ years for certain.

LA Detective setting. LA cop setting? ... Die Hard setting? Oh Jesus just go to the homepage and look for yourself. I see nothing. http://www.rockstargames.com/lanoire/ There. A trailer, some project overview.

It was announced as a PS3 exklusive. But then there were rumours and doubts...Look at the Team Bondi website, they state that the game is coming out for "next gen consoles". This might include the 360 as well.

LA Detective setting.

All this Film Noir talks... I'm gonna eat my Xbawks if this game turns out to be a PS3 exclusive.

"It's not like there are no people who still admire hitler" You get arrested for openly admiring Hitler. But that's probably not in every country the case.... "I question your assumption that most Russians admire Stalin, and those who do most likely didn't live under his rule." Russians vote Stalin for 3rd greatest Russian figure. "I don't think you have any evidence that nazi Germany would've been any less stable than the Soviet Union, if it won WW2." Hitler actually never intended a World War, he just wanted former German areas (today Poland) back, so he invaded Poland. Britain responded by decalring war, and dragged the rest of the world with it. So, my assumption is that if Hitler would have won the war, he'd have just rebuild his Third Reich and lead it, without world domination ambitions. That's why I find it hilarious that people think they'd all speak German if Hitler have won. Hitler wanted his deutschen Lebensraum, not the entire world

Again, Hitler was mad. So of course he'd have used the A-Bomb. But that doesn't mean his folks would have agreed with that. Perhaps there'd have been a successful assassination attempt before he could have done that. Maybe not. Would the USA have used the A-Bomb twice again if it could revert time back? After all, they deserted Dresden and other major cities, perhaps they would have used the A-Bomb against Germany as well.

...oh and they were allied with USA/GB/France as well. Funny that nobody there realized that Stalin killed more of his own people than Hitler. And how is it that Russians today still think Stalin is one of the greates figures? Gimme break. I agree that the USA helped accelerating Germany's defeat, but even without outside pressure people sooner or later would have rejected the Nazis. Even the Wehrmacht soldiers would sooner or later have turned their backs against that madman, just like they did with Kaiser Willy after it's WW1 defeat.
