Also, great drama at the end of the first half, on par with the hand of God and finally revenge for 1966. I don't think the 2-2 would've mattered, the way the Engrish had been defending the entire game.

Whoever goes through is going to be easy pickings for Uruguay.

Maybe there'll be another half-assed PC port.

Doesn't seem it is developed for PC.

"Amerzone" is on GOG as well... that's the first Sokal game and referenced a lot in Syberia. E.g. Amerzone cuckoo in Barrockstadt, etc.

Even if USA manages to slither through, I can't see them get past Uruguay.

Strange, I didn't even know Slovakia was in this tournament. Any day catenaccio gets beaten in the ground, is a good day for futbol.

Did T. Howard & E. Pagliarulo really say that about VATS? I'd like to see those quotes in context.

Some excellent drama at the end of Australia-Serbia. Could've been 3-1 or 2-2. I predict Serbian butts to be hurt for quite a while after this. USA has a good chance to progress to the quarterfinals.

Aussies are on a roll.

It'll probably end in an embarassing penalty shoot-out anyway. I can't wait.

Females in full armour is perfectly fine, as long as the armour design lacks breast protrusions (which, imo, is worse than chainmail bikini).

Should be USA-Ghana in the 1/8 finals. And England-Germany... don't mention the war.

I'll take boobie cards over QTE sex scenes, thank you very much

Even European developers eventually have to buckle down and 'streamline' their games in order to be able to play with the big boys. Look at CD Projekt and how Witcher 2 is going, the previews for Two Worlds 2 (more 'action oriented') or Radon Labs that went out of business and subsequently got bought by a developer of online games. Exception is a dev like Larian studios, that also does other work outside of video game development.

I think since 1966 they've never failed to pass the group stage, no?

If England doesn't qualify, I am half expecting the same drama with England as with France.

Heh, kids these days... Anyway, 8-ft long broadswords is only the beginning. God, I love Japan.

The 'bikini-clad bimboes' at least make perfect sense.

Zizou for new national coach, and kick out all the current overpaid crybabies, beginning with Henry.

I think the big difference in 2002 was that SK bribed half the referees. Just look at their matches against Italy & Spain.

They must've read this thread's title.

I'd like more plot details. Is the game an actual remake of DS 1, or does the game's plot take place after DS2: Broken World? If it indeed takes place after Broken World, there's room to create a new spell system & include whole new monsters while remaining true to the lore (Broken World -> stars shift, new era begins).

Does anyone in NK even watch the WC? I bet their propaganda machine twists every match into a NK victory... but this time they're going to have a bit of a hard time with that.
