Wrath of Dagon

The first Halo was definitely a classic, the other games in the series an attempt to cash in by hacks after all the creative people left the developer.

To me the story was a minor bonus (and more interesting if the hidden meanings are explained), the game can be played for the puzzles and artwork alone. Also the paintings you were assembling are kind of interesting, I wish I could figure out how they fit into the story. If we're talking strategy, I nominate Combat Mission : Shock Force, the most realistic tactical wargame available, check it out. BG&E, I agree is a great game, but I feel it gets too much praise. It's like a combination of Thief 3 and Oddworld: Munch's Odyssey, but both of those games are much deeper and more deserving of praise.

I'm almost certain they've made that change. Combat is pretty much the only thing I enjoyed in ME, also I don't have any trouble aiming with the gamepad, and my party members were very useful. ME is just a badly made game though, not something you can draw valid conclusions from about whole genres.

Braid. Never understood the love for MOTB, very conventional and average RPG.

Never used it anyway, supposedly it improved your aim, but meh. If you have third person cover, there's really no point in crouching.

MEBO's connection to Lybian intelligence certainly throws new light on the allegations of its owner and employee.

OK, now I get it, the SMG's are a phallic symbol, and he "dual wields them".

Those articles state that investigations into these allegations had started, but what was the outcome of the investigations?

So Thorton is a mysoginist because he's not gay, did I get that right?

I'd like to avoid all Chinese products, unfortunately I shop at China-mart, er, Wal-mart.

That, a lot of people don't realize that US gave up its right to prosecute Megrahi so that the deal with Lybia to prosecute him could be made and the West's relations with Lybia normalized.

Don't we do that all ready? No, why the hell do we still have all those troops stationed in Europe? Yes, let's show some compassion, like the compassion he showed to the scores of Americans he murdered.

Not only by yourself but they promise enough story and content so it actually plays like a single player game. You still have to pay the subscription, but of course you can quit once you play through all the content and don't want to do the MMO stuff.

A lot of space to continue the KotOR storyline. Hell, if they were smart they would've released a single player RPG with a story that would directly segue to MMO's plot. Bioware claims the MMO is the sequel, and you can play it as a single player game, except you get tons more content. This of course remains to be seen. But yeah, if the MMO fails, the 300 year hole is certainly something they could stick a sequel into.

And the quests were way better, that is if one could even call the travesties in ME "quests". And the characters were better, and the dialog actually went somewhere. So pretty much all content was way better.

Bioware in general is very pro gay rights, also a lot of men like to play lesbian romances, so they put gay romances in the game, what's so strange about that?

Why are people so down on the DLC? Is it really worse than the Uncharted Worlds? If not, you knew what to expect.

KOTOR is still a valuable license, it sold quite well for an RPG. I don't see why they'd throw the baby out with the bathwater.

May be they meant 500 billion Zimbabwe dollars, which is only 50 c US.

Carth is an interesting, well developed character.

You mean after it crashes and burns, and if Bio survives the disaster, they might consider K3.

Tim Curry is great, I guess they didn't give him a bigger role because he charges too much.

Elite price dropped to $300, Pro to $250, but Pro is no longer produced, and Elite won't include HDMI cable in the future. This is stupid, with Blu-Ray and Wi-fi, PS3 is clearly a better deal at $300, well, unless you actually care about playing games.

It's an atrocious totalitarian system that has been responsible for the murder of tens of millions of people. Alternatively it's a lunatic fantasy about a utopian society in which everyone works according to his abilities and consumes according to his needs.
