Monte Carlo

Has anybody finished it yet?

Dude, why do you waste your time with mere civilians like us?

I resent the suggestion that delivering pizza is in anyway a mundane task within an escapist videogame environment.

What a joke. I'm half surprised it's not DLC. Once upon a time that would have been satire, now... I'm not so sure.

By the way, my steam username is AirfixPanzer.

I have just sent you a friend invite so you can marvel at my 733t sk1llz that's if BFBC2 ever finishes facking updating.

While to me, the Bourne sequels are the equivalent of the Matrix ones. YMMV. That's really harsh. I mean, ouch.

He has a wise but blind less-of-a-social-life sensei master whom he dotes upon and learns the special secrets of hermitage.

The setting, I agree, is awesome, but.... The memes around urban dystopia / environmental carnage / cloning / the ethics of robotics... these have all been done since in other movies and sometimes better.

I can see why Bob Marley appeals on a desert island! The reason I posted this is because it's such a devilishly tough challenge - every time I come up with mine I want to change them.

Some movies (I believe they call them 'franchises') lend themselves to sequels. FFS, I love the Bourne movies, for me number three was the best. I just think that Bladerunner is complete. It's a gem. Leave it be.

I haven't set up an account yet, I'm still trying to figure it out on the SP campaign. Will let you all know when I've made one.

:: shrugs :: Sometimes it's just that a movie is pretty much perfect as it is. It would be nice just to let it speak for itself and for folks to make something new.

On the one hand at least it's a SP PC role-playing game. And the people behind it are clearly putting some thought to it. On the other, it looks so cartoony and vanilla. If I see another over-sized anime-influenced sword I'm going to retch.

BFBC2 is very, very good fun for a shooter. It looks great too.

So I tried the King Arthur Role-Playing Wargame demo. The camera is horrible. The battles are a pale imitation of MTW2. Even cranked up to maximum settings on a machine that exceeds the specs the unit detail is mushy. The art is nice, like the campaign map but it didn't grab me, there's nothing there you can't really do with the (free) LotR Total War mod or the Grand Campaigns mod.

I suppose you think that's funny.

linkie. Thoughts?

Am in a bit of a fallow period games-wise... apart from my Alpha Protocol playthrough. Even Company of Heroes isn't doing it for me ::sigh:: I'm d/l the demo for King Arthur the RP Wargaming thingie to see if that wets my whistle, but I'm also liking the idea of being a sniper in Bad Company 2.

Actually, my son got into Lego via the Lego computer games on his DS - Indiana Jones and Star Wars.

The aricraft carrier and guns are full of win. I love lego.

Does she freeze if she's not continually connected to the internet?

ThatswhatI'mtalkingabout! As a big military history fan I had to post this one when I found it... Behold the Lego halftrack!

Sometimes I wonder if gaming journos actually play the games they're reviewing.

94/100. Wow grade inflation. That's a epic score...
