It seemed more like a Dungeon Siege 3 trailer to me. I didn't even recognize most of the characters save Sten. The characters are all going Legolas in the trailer but I doubt whether in the actual game they will be able to jump over a pebble. EDIT: grammar

Link doesn't seem to work for me, but I guess that's a good thing.

I think it's mostly because they were used in civilian environments - subways, Super Duper Mart, factories etc. hence their lasers aren't really set to kill but merely cause some burns.

Don't all games use the same model for women? I'm planning to play as a mage. It better be as overpowered as in Gothic 3, but take equally as long to develop. Summoning demons - hell yes!

I like the Sentry bots & Mister Gutsy's. With these around patrolling the wasteland, I can believe there's not much 'wildlife' left.

Dueling / dual weapon feats are not for ranged weapons. The feats you need to take instead are "close combat".

Imo DA needs something suitably dark & gritty Heavy Metal FAKK2 theme

I liked how Blade of Darkness had its own "Origin" (*snickers*) stories for each character. That was a nice touch. I believe I played & finished the game with the Amazon.

I've had a random encouter on level 1 involving a raider with a Fat Man... suffice to say it was instant reload time.

Well, as long as Specialist Olin is included...

The game has been lying around here unused for about a week, but I am planning to play as a Mage first time through. I'm looking forward to the shape-shifting.

Eh... surely not John Howe, the famous Tolkien illustrator?!

Character creation is similar to Mass Effect's. Not many options... nudie patches & improved body models will have to wait until the creation kits are released. I was hoping to make green Elves like in Oblivion, but I doubt that will be possible.

The ending is why you install Broken Steel. Then again, I was okay with the ending the first time. I was level 20, and had explored the entire map + finished all quests, there was no more reason to continue running around shooting things.

As far as female sidekicks go, I'd say no one beats Sophia Hapgood from Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis. Or maybe Nicole Collard from Broken Sword.

Can't Zenimax just buy them out or something? Oh, wait...

I've seen some flying Deathclaws and body parts suddenly come falling from the sky. Most epic moment was an entire bus dropping right in front of me outside the National Archives. I think it came flying from the Capitol Building... there's usually a fight going on down there.

But Leliana is no Alyx First Girl Wins

To be fair, apparently the Xbox port IS horrible. Eurogamer should just do a separate review for PC, that's all.

That isn't a joke review, is it? ... "With so many quirks and flaws in the RPG basics, it doesn't help that the game looks absolutely terrible." Huh? Then again he reviewed the console version..

Vectorman: Fun platformer that was originally on Genesis, but can be played on PC under form of Sega Smash Pack (which also includes Golden Axe, Phantasy Star II & Sonic).

Am I weird because I always play RPGs as a female when possible? Insert Freudian crap here: ________________________

I managed to finish the game without any further incidents. There's a few nice new twists at Malachor. Guess I should now replay as a male Exile. Apparently there's some interesting drama added involving the Handmaiden & Visas.

There's a factory somewhere with Chinese ghouls and a funny radio station. I get mine over there.

Have you run into mirelurk hunters yet? Now those things are really bad-ass at low levels. There's a metro station somewhere full of these mudcrabs, I believe.
