Why isn't Clear Sky ever part of the STALKER bundles?

At least you really jumped in head first. From what I've seen/heard of Zeno Clash, it's as weird as they come.

But that's an indie game! Who are you and what did you do to the real Morgoth?

Lies! There's at least a silenced pistol, SMG and a dart rifle. The respawns were kind of annoying, yes.

There's also Independence War 1/2...

Farcry 2 is a game where you need to make your own fun. If you just run into every mission with the same guns and blow everything up it gets boring fast, but if you like to sneak around and find different ways to do stuff(ie. what the DX fans are crying about all the time) it can be really fun. Plus it does some interesting stuff with the buddy system, fire propagation and the awesome healing animations.

Skip Subject Zero if you can.

That's what it's planned for according to Blizzard's leaked product slate.

@Orogun01: You wouldn't understand.

Mope in a corner probably

-33%? I laugh at the pathetic discount. HAHAHA

Oh, I should have (re)posted this in here as well: Reasons to be a PC gamer blog

It's high time to try out some indie games

Also, not many people realize this, but Just Cause 2 has some really beautiful graphics, on the PC at least. Instead of blowing things up left and right, take a moment to enjoy a sunset on top of the highest mountain...

Whatever helps From what I remember, there's no drop in quality or rushing near the end-y bits and you get a nice ending out of it.

Yes, you are the awesomest, Ryu. It's also nice that they color-coded the answers, so you don't even have to read the full text before choosing.

The combat is getting slightly boring but other than that i'm enjoying it. Yeah that's not really going to change, you can try different card combinations to spice it up or just listen to some music/podcast/audiobook while doing really long dungeon areas.

Wow, humans are probably the only creatures who see the divine in a puddle of crap. Isn't that what art's about?

I just watched the enriching lives one and actually did the exact thing there as the guy. My problem with that bit was that the potential consequences for either choice will probably boil down to "you get 4 geth troops at the final battle" instead of anything big or meaningful, rendering the whole choice to nothing more than a superfluous sidequest.

He's basically implying that all those games took the easy way out, while his will be super awesome because he spent years writing it and whatnot. It's all just bragging until he actually has something more than a tech demo to show for it.

Good, keep going. Any impressions so far?

I just need to convince myself that I don't in fact like EVE every now and then when I hear one of the awesome stories about someone getting betrayed or a giant bank scam.

Well, it usually takes me 2-3 days to realize that I don't want to play it, but I guess it's different for other people.

Mmm sozzy. I'd say the free 14-day trial(21 with an invite) is a better option for trying the game out.
