  1. I'm not sure if that is so simple. They never managed it for witcher 1. What is typical witcher 2 memory usage and savegame size? That's usually a good indication of console portability.
  2. When exactly has 80% became low? The game seems to have production values below the expected norm so breaking the 8/10 barrier should actually count as a major success.
  3. Could you elaborate where historically such a thing took place? Because the only thing that comes to my mind are rare and extreme cases of mass-murder when kidnapping attempts failed.
  4. There are visual clues as the NPC react somewhat differently laying. The real problem with game is whole evidence collection and interpretation. I never get what the player character has in mind and constantly end up testing what 'Lie' option says. Dose anyone else have a problem with a slippery slope during gathering clues? Whenever I get first few questions wrong I soon end up unable to call 'Lie' as I lack the right evidence, that effect seems to get bigger as the case progresses resulting in a poor showing. Same. If I'm interested enough to watch then I'm going to want to play myself, and I don't want to watch someone else do it and have it spoiled. The point isn't only to watch the game but how other people react to them and solve problems presented. Besides that it's a perfectly good way to experience story/narrative in games without having to suffer through generic action sections.
  5. Even if obsidian owns the IP who would finance the sequel? Sega is the most risk-taking of the big publishers and even they were not happy with the reception of AP.
  6. If they are in the bink video format (.bik) deleting usually works.
  7. I actually read them but they are little more than senseless wish-list for a different type of game all-together. You simply try to impose RPG mechanics on an action game in addition to a terrible combat cop-out system. And I expected Fallout 3 to be isometric and turn-based. Guess how that turned out.
  8. All I understood is that you are looking for a completely different game. DS3 by all accounts look like a console hack and slash not a far off diablo cousin. And is your first complain really that you are pressured not to die in combat? If challenge frustrates you just ask for a no-dieing solution, not some nonsensical regeneration while you are running in circles around a boss.
  9. Posted at iron tower studios Highlights: Would really love to see that in a modern RPG. The 'use the speech' solutions have become way to simplistic.
  10. Isn't that a contradiction? If the universe is a deterministic system then so are you and thus have no choice in any matter.
  11. First of all - your train of thought is really hard to follow. You move from promoting determinism through a thought experiment to advocating regulating media. The argument would be far easier to understand if it was made in reverse order. And the problem I find here is that nobody needs to deny that some social behaviors are socially harmful to not want censorship. Some can easily argue that attempt at regulation can be far more dangerous than the behavior in question. In fact I think you made that argument yourself in the case of drugs.
  12. It is kind of hard to buy from a store things better than a unique.
  13. In practical terms this means nothing, at least not in our lifetimes. But in the field of theoretical study this could be really important. AFAIK physicists have always wondered why gravity is the weakest force found in our universe and finding out if/how antimatter is affected by it could revolutionize our understanding of it.
  14. Assassin's Creed: Revelations announced. Starring: Ezio, Altair and Desmond, set mostly in Constantinople. I guess they'll explain the aliens and then leave the world saving to the 2012 game.
  15. Antihydrogen held for seventeen minutes. Hopefully we will soon know how antimatter reacts to gravity.
  16. Could you give a source for this? That would be unfortunate. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_bin_laden Thanks. A shame he couldn't be taken alive but speculating if it was even possible is pointless.

    Libya

    Why should we in the first place? Propaganda has proved itself to be a invaluable tool in directing policies and attitudes of other people so giving up on it for the sake of moral standard seems rather unwise.
  19. So is that a complete list? I'm preety sure someone mentioned possibility of two more. And what is it with the whole Ulysses deal? This better not be another blast from amnesiac past.

    Libya

    My problem isn't so much with the people as with the perception of our foreign policy we create. If it takes you a month to go from no-fly-zone to we-bomb-bastards and then you end up screwing up the latter you create the impression that there is no real point in talking to you. Since I don

    Libya

    This isn't about Gaddafi or even his family but the way the whole intervention is handled. If that information pans out then a dictator in charge of millions has just been informed that he is effectively a dead man. That strikes me as a major case of stupidity or incompetence. Add to that the whole mess over the way resolution has been interpreted and you send a clear signal that only nukes will save you when the west has a mood swing. As for the fighting - ironically the quickest way to end it right now would be to bomb the rebels.

    Libya

    No. This one was apparently kind of a black sheep until recently.

    Libya

    Air strike in Tripoli has killed the son of Muammar Gaddafi according to the Libyan government This is really troubling if it proves to be true. Actions like this can seriously undermine whatever authority the UN and NATO have left in the middle-east.
  24. Once a update is detected some games will not launch without it regardless of offline mode. And he may have other games he would like to keep patched.
