One morning, my father woke up real early to go to work, and he tried to heat up water to make tea. Just as he was about to put the tea bag into the boiling water, he accidently dropped the bag on the floor. Immediately, one of our dogs ran up to it and swallowed it, and my father started cursing for like.. ten minutes straight. That was a very weird moment.

No matter how flawed a socialist society is, I still prefer it to a pure capitalist society. A society whose goal is to take care of everyone is always better than one that thinks the individual should be able to trample on the weak 'just because they can'. At least TRY to be fair (even if you don't succceed) than give up and only benefit a few.

Which gameplay style is that? The "aged, low resolution, 'help, I've lost a dimension and can't get up!'" style? Time has not been kind to any of the IE games when it comes to graphics. Everytime I start one of them up, it feels like I'm taking a huge step backwards. Personally, I find them more difficult to cope with than for example Wasteland or Pool of Radiance, because they were designed for modern computers, yet fail to deliver. Unlike the examples I mentioned: they have no expectations on them because they're already dinosaurs..

Wow. One of the first truelly informative and educated posts I've read on this forum (I've studied some of the same historic events myself). Great job!

I always go for the healing warrior, although in recent years I've found myself drawn to the assassin/rogue type. I never play any magic based characters though. I wish they would make more RPG's where magic didn't play such a huge role..

I voted for Pool of Radiance. That game changed the way I viewed computer games as a whole. It was also a great game in its own merits. Of course, the interface improved in the later games and the graphics have aged considerably, but it's still easily my favourite among the games in this poll.

So if someone rapes you, and you become a rape victim, are you still 100% responsible for you? Ps. Your simple-mindedness astounds me.

- When my girlfriend forces me to go shopping with her and then drags me to an underwear store, and while she's digging for stuff to buy, I see all these old ladies staring at me like I'm some sort of pervert just standing there, trying to see which underwear they buy. - When my girlfriend's mom calls to talk to ME, and not my girlfriend. - When I find a review copy hidden under the heaps of CD's/DVD's on my desk, that I've gotten 2 months ago and still hasn't reviewed. - When I go to a club and drunk old ladies hit on me.

The text sounds a bit like it was taken from a Horror film poster from the sixties (or even fifties?).. At least, that's how it felt for me.

Right now I'm reviewing Psychotoxic, Restricted Area, Star Wolves, Timesplitters: Future Perfect and Cold Fear. For fun I'm playing World of Warcraft and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - The Sith Lords, although I don't have much time to play those two much right now. In the near future, I foresee myself playing a huge amount of Dungeon Lords..

I like cover A, except for the fact that the dragon looks a bit too "childish" in my eyes. The only thing about cover A that I don't like are the vertical red lines that make the entire cover look very 80'ish. I would remove those, draw a more professional looking dragon (trying hard not to make it a Mortal Kombat rip-off) and use cover A. The cover B is very nicely drawn, but it doesn't look very classy or artistic, it's just a bunch of unknown characters crammed on top of each other. Also, it resembles so many other magazines out there, it wouldn't be able to distinguish itself from the crowd.

Unfortunately, I'm not doing Xbox reviews. I only get PS2 and PC games sent to me.

If you prefer 3D before 2D then these games might be for you: Gothic Gothic 2 Deus Ex System Shock 2 They are all games with good stories (great, in the case of Deus Ex), real time combat and full 3D worlds.

Are you guys playing this game already? If so, how is it?

Weird. I reviewed this game.. about 6 months ago, I would believe. It's filled with clich

This is not true. Several other species have sex for fun and not for breeding only. Chimpanzees even 'play with themselves' and use "sex toys". Edit: Even the word starting with mast and ending with urbate is stopped by the filter on this site. That's not a bad word, is it? I mean, that's the most harmless word I could think of to describe the bad monkeys.

Strangely enough, KotOR2 never felt like a disappointment to me. I really like the game, I've had a lot of fun playing it and I love some of the things Obsidian has done with it. But the amount of bugs and "missing" features surprised me and annoyed me sometimes.

What surprised me in this, is that Feargus measured the size of the maps in pixels. I wonder what Gothic 2's world would measure in pixels..

And I'll.. uh.. I'll scratch my review copy slightly with a semi sharp object!!

The same guys who were laughing over one poster here who claimed he was going to completely rewrite the game engine behind KotOR.. are now facing the same dilemma themselves. Lots of talk, nothing to show and internal group problems. How original.

Finnish humour at its best..

The strength of the Spy vs. Spy games (on the Commodore 64 at least) was that you had a split screen and you could play against a friend. One was black, the other was white, and you placed traps and mines and all sorts of evil things for your opponent to wander into. It was actually great fun. I'll probably give it a glance, since it's coming out on the PS2.

A good april fool's joke is supposed to play with people's feelings! If it made your heart skip a beat, good! That way, when you find out it was a joke, you're either gonna be pissed as hell or laugh out loud at your own silliness. I laughed. Good joke!

If they're indeed going to use the Unreal 3 engine for their next project (then it'll be a BIG title, and probably not one of their own IP's), then I'm not particularly worried about it being a console title. The Unreal 3 engine was made for the PC and it shouldn't be a major problem porting it "back" to the PC after the Xbox 2 version is out. Unless Bill decides he wants exclusivity..

If it could find it, what's the problem?
