concerning the Halo connection, I can't give you a link since the video was deleted, but the guys speculating had had a couple of connections, not just the two codenames. one being Blizzard advertising Halo at some point

the new Blizzard MMo is called Titan, and some speculate it's the Halo MMO

that's what I always do. even with games I own

no, that's how I judge them I don't agree, unless you mean on this forum anyway, the last game by Bioware I enjoyed was Dragon Age, and before that - KOTOR. so, it's not exactly following a trend in my case. more like a case of severe disenchantment

Diablo 3 this year? yeah, keep dreaming if it's the same as in the leaked files, it's a train wreck

man, GTA 5 and MP 3 are the only games I would buy at full price... Rockstar is the only developer today that doesn't disappoint

heh, but in the end, when the trip is over and all the enemies are dead, we'll take a look at the statistics and nobody will remember that one Ogre Mage Gorth scratched with his toothpick, the numbers will tell the real story

that's your envy talking

dum dum dum~ the air just got thicker

sweet! didn't even know this existed. time to replay PST

that's a very narrow definition of "social" you're painting there

MCA talking about design decisions in PST amazingly, this forum has a dozen of open PST topics, so I decided to resurrect the most recent one.

a lv 1 cleric wouldn't be of much use anyway

just watch the gameplay vids. it's a sad sight

Nemesis is the worst RE game I've played. didn't play 4, unfortunately. 5 is very solid, but only in co-op. that alone puts it above most games of the series. the original game is just crap. my fav is 2. heard a lot of good things about CV but could never force myself into playing it. still have the DVD somewhere. just watched the trailer for 6. it's awesome. it's like RE All-Stars, day one purchase

I am fairly sure PS3 had been cracked at some point in the past?

as Tigranes said, the enemies are so dumb it's not funny. the combat itself looks and feels solid, but not much point in all that since there's no challenge. I got my ass kicked once, by that pack of wolves. but switching from melee to magic did the trick, right now magic feels like cheesing. and omg the interface... maybe the full game will have enough redeeming qualities. I'll wait for opinions though oh, and how do you save in the demo?

a well-built PC (even a cheap one) can run most games easily for 3-5 years. you just have to play on lowest settings. I hope you agree that an upgrade every 5 years is a lot less costly than buying games for your child all that time.

you should ask the publishers, not the makers. Obsidian gains from LPs

not every parent owns a credit card or a paypal account. China, Russia, Ukraine and such are the countries with the most piracy %. where the majority of the population lives below the level of poverty. they can try buy their kid an old PC, and that's about it. fighting piracy in those countries is like "bees fighting honey"

that's easy to explain. the majority of "pirates" are schoolkids that don't have the means to pay for a game online. they buy games in stores from time to time but the realization that they can get any game for free, for 12-16 year-old kids... anyway, the point about pirating demos is also correct. it's habitual. they tend to check their favorite torrent trackers for all gaming news. so as soon as something pops up, they only need to press the DL button

they're looking for investors now, it's probably not actually being developed

I couldn't care less about CS or Valve

I remember Incubation sadly, my copy was lost many years ago
