What are you playing now?
Playing The Guild 2. Enjoying it, oddly enough, not encountering as many bugs as I thought (did patch at a date after my friend played it and told me about it, though).

Activision CEO wants to take all the fun out of making games
Yeah, but most of the time you'll end up with just enough. Darth Vader school of managing isn't really the best, as you just get what you think is best, not necessarily what is. Still though, Activision does sound fun to work for.

Emotion and games. sadness and character attachment
I agree, that was a pretty sad story. I was attached to my squad mates in Ghost Recon, remember one riflemen did an epic act of stepping out in to a road way, hitting several Russians with an M203 then picking several more off then returning to cover with me. Alas he bought it in the second last mission.

I felt really bad when Jock died in Deus Ex, partly as it was my screw up for not doing anything after seeing the Odd Mechanic, pft.

FO:NV
Could always grant XP for exploring, like Deus Ex I guess. Would be interesting to balance gains from sneaking with killing and talking.

What is the best multi-player game ever
Starsiege : Tribes

Yahtzee reviews
Maybe, although The Dig was pretty much all there should be, same with Grim Fandango (although that wasn't even done by the time CMI came out). Not much room left for sequels.

Yahtzee reviews
Thought CMI was just as good as the first two. Was a pretty...dull video, I guess the Irish accent was supposed to be funny ?

What are you playing now
Playing Alpha Centauri, never really did move up the difficulty scale in the game, play on Talent - so I've decided to try to get to the middle or upper tiers. Addictive game, heh.

Favorite RTS and why do you like it
Ah I see, well good company loyalty I suppose.

Favorite RTS and why do you like it
Why did you play a 40k game if you think 40k is ridiculous, exactly ?
-
Favorite RTS and why do you like it
Well there is some, you learn a bit more about the Sergeants. It's not on an RPG level, obviously.
-
What are you playing now
Playing Deus Ex, not going through in any particular playstyle although tending to the sneaky and non-lethal. Meant to finish this game..uh..7 years ago, but university and other games got in the way and then my CD got wrecked.
-
Favorite RTS and why do you like it
Total Annihilation, liked it for the large scale battles, the soundtrack, the resource system and the (at the time) neat way fighters and bombers actually flew - rather than hover and fire.

WoW expansion details leaked
Damn, Thrall really is their golden boy.

WoW expansion details leaked
More classes, heh, yeah watch Blizzard attempt to balance or find a role for all those.

Still Star Wars : Rebellion. I like how intelligence matters so much in this game.

TOP 25 PC games of all time by IGN
I'd have liked to see Tribes take BF1942's spot. But other than that, agree with most of them being on there (sort of wished for TA to be on there).

Witcher enhanced edition bis
People are impatient, having to learn a game is stupid (apparently), host of reasons. If we did get another X-COM game, I have some nightmare vision of it being like Vegas 2 with regenerating health, revivable fallen comrades and teemins masses of AI opposition that wait for you to cross a trigger point.

What are you playing now
Been playing Star Wars Rebellion, finally found the manual so I figured - what the hell. Pretty fun game, I'm not seeing what everyone hated about it. Might play some HoI3 tonight.

New SW game ideas?
Hit the deck!

New SW game ideas?
An improved Rebellion.

What are you playing now
You have a what in a what and you get a good load of what? If I hadn't played EVE I wouldn't have a clue about what you just said Haha, apologies. They added wormholes into EVE in the last update I think, so they lead to W-space. Basically it's like a low-sec system, except you're not in the 'real' world so you can't easily ship it all to Jita or some other hub. So we've set up a Player Owned Station to serve as a base as we salvage, mine, harvest whatever we can then (hopefully) return to normal space, sell it all get rich so we can get better ships to do it all over again. There, that's cleared it up.

EVE, friend and I have a POS up in a W-space system so we're just clearing it out - good load of ISK so far.

Games you are looking forward to
Supreme Commander 2 here. Nothing else really catches my fancy, guess I need to spend more time looking up tittles, heh
