Nope, it was always with a normal name except for the alpha. Steam Store still shows early access, and my savegame still works as well. Therefore-- it's not yet here.

Probably not, because I haven't seen any update yet. The game should tell you it's the beta, though (at least on startup).

I am just going to recreate my Ramirez-looking character, like in any other such games. In ME1 I've ended up playing with a character like that by accident, but I've sticked with it for the rest of the games, and even started to use a similar type in Saints Row, etc. It's totally my thing now. :>

The Morrowind expansion for TESO has been announced a while ago- now they did a first walk through some of the areas: https://www.twitch.tv/bethesda It starts at about 30 minutes. The shown game world actually looks pretty cool, imo. Really a shame this is an MMO and there likely will be 50 and more players running over your screen at the end of the day. Also I so, so, so, so hate the armor design they've put into this game. It looks all kinda the same and nothing is somewhat bulky. Everyone wears skin-tight clothes. Ugh.

I like to imagine them somehow surviving the crash and coming back later. Really liked that character and it would be kinda crab if he's gone for real.

Apparently some new DX:MD dlc got released (A Criminal Past), and it actually looks pretty cool.

It is, and I am not defending that. But the police killing the father is a different issue entirely. The news is making it sound as if the father was killed on purpose, in connection with the rapist being happily freed. /edit: And still, the attack in itself was wrong. Not because the police would kill him, but because this is vigilantism. We simply can't allow this to happen.

Yes, 22 months is rather low, but the police did have to protect themself and that guy. If you allow mob justice and vigilantism, you might as well just end our society right here. It's tragic the father died, but that's a different issue.

I thought it was kinda funny how the game tried to tell me all the time how perfect and hot Miranda Lawson is, while at the same time I thought she was ugly and annoying af. Not even the ass close-up shots helped the matter. :>

The only Hitman game I ever played was the second one, I think. It had one feature that I thought was really dumb: If you solve a mission silently, you'd get bonus weapons... which you would never use, because that would mean not being able to solve the mission silently.

Couldn't find if it is real or not and how old it is, but obviously he doesn't look like that right now. /edit: Found some news with the picture now. It's from may 20, 2013.

What's that, a mobile phone simulator?

Also they try to market with New Vegas now. "It's Like Fallout: New Vegas on acid in Vietnam". Truth told, I am very interested in this project... I just don't want to back it.

Just noticed... after playing through the beta, I am actually really hooked now. Totally want to continue playing, but I seriously have to force myself not to touch that game again until the 28th. Damn. Shouldn't have started.. who would have expected that? Certainly not me.

That extra year sure was worth it, imo.

Why would it be? There was never a sign of it possibly never getting finished.

65°C is quite harsh, imo.

Still sad about the lack of Cadegund. Thanks for reminding me.

I dont mind the change so far, as i hated nearly every combat scene in the original.

Well, I just played through the beta yesterday and the day before, because I couldn't wait anymore. Took me about 7 hours, faster than I thought (if it's really 1/3 of the game). It actually hooked me up quite well and I really want to know how it's going to continue. Based on that, I'd rate the game to be pretty good already. Much better than Wasteland 2 from the visuals and production value (W2 always felt... somewhat off, probably because the different graphic assets never really fit well together). Also I'd rate it higher than PoE so far, simply because it doesn't have real time with pause AND it doesn't have that truckton of generic filler trash-mob combat. In fact, I had about two battles in the whole beta- everything else I could solve with talking. The only really negative thing I've noticed so far is that there often is *so much* boring, unnecessary filler text. At some point I've stopped reading the introduction descriptions in dialogue, and it felt like I was actually missing out on nothing at all. Really, at times I feel like this game has huge amounts of text just to be able to say it has huge amounts of text... Hint: Sometimes less is more.

The difference is that Erdogan sued, Trump did not.

Well, that's dumb.

So, I am curious-- can I play the game with gamepad on the couch now or is that console stuff really only for the console version?

It is. Before that, nobody really remembered the law exists at all. No idea what happens next. I guess they will go into revision or something, because the reasoning and what exactly has been banned is very shaky. Also, as far as I've read about it now, the ruling pretty much goes against the other court rulings that happened before in this case.

Really depends on the price. If it's too high, it could as well be a blockage for smaller teams, if it's too low, it means nothing (isn't it already $100 right now for Greenlight?).
