It's obvious that it's popular, what kind of an argument is that? Does being popular make something "interesting"?

It's pretty much a refined version of Penumbra, from what I've heard. If you like horror games this is where it's at.

Wait, someone actually thinks that? I thought we were all on the same page, laughing at Kojima's ridiculousness. The presentation is great, but the underlying material is laughable at best. EDIT: It was deep, right off the deep end

My favorite character is the Nanomachines, the unsung hero of the series.

That's a pretty good point. It's not hard for me to accept that I'll never have all the answers. Plus it's more fun if there is something left to be discovered.

METAL GEAR!?

Amneisa: The Dark Descent

Death and taxes.

Hey,

Bah, you people are a disgrace. All your opinions are retroactively disregarded Don't get stuck on the "best game ever" hype train, Torment is one extreme where the RPG genre could have gone, but for better or for worse it didn't. Whether you love it or hate it, it's something everyone should experience.

I guess this is less about us and more about the public at large being able to play it now and in the forseeable future(hopefully). GOG is kind of like the PC game museum. At least GAF seems pretty enthusiastic about it

You can help by voting for them on the wishlist page.

Ug, thats what Im afraid of. Ill probably buy it "just to have it", and see what all the hubbub was about from you guys. There are still people here who haven't played Torment? It's compulsory playing material, heathen! Knock yourself out. EDIT: Would be nice if they added NOLF next...

This is good, I guess.

Instead of thinking how "human curiosity" will break the laws of physics, try thinking around the problem.

Yes, there's quite a difference between sub-atomic particles and everyday life stuff.

ITT: We learn to use the internet...

I would very much disagree with that. There isn't any huge difference in what you see because devs don't really do much with it most of the time. But the quality difference is still readily apparent. Unfortunately, noone seems willing to put forth the effort to use it for anything...but now that a large portion of gamers use a DX10 OS and card I'm hoping to see a lot more. ( http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey ) Interesting. I find the number of mono-core cpus surprising, as well as the low number of quad-core's in circulation (among steams survey group). The CPU thing might be because even the crappiest single-CPU setups like Atom do hyperthreading, which might show up as 2 CPUs. Not sure, though.

Why hello, there. So I guess that'll make you Mulder and by the end of the episode we'll have more unsolved questions than we have answers?

Wow, I didn't realize I shared the board with a bunch of nutjobs(well, more nutjobs, anyway). Sometimes it's just nice to keep a professional distance and only talk about video games...

Sure, but who doesn't like dynamic volumetric fog?

Didn't one of the later STALKERs do some crazy volumetric dynamic fog thing with DX11? There were some nice tech demos with it as well.

*starts putting on tinfoil hat* The Daily Mail? Who are you kidding here, Monte?

Slow news day?

I wonder if we ever reach a point where piracy is actually all but eliminated. Then we can look back and think if it was really worth it.
