Also, who is Faraday's dad? I really hope Desmond manages to save Charlotte.

I'm enjoying the new season a lot.

You are an Alzheimer patient?

Hopefully, when digital sales make ordinary retailers superfluous, game prices will go down appropriately.

Yeah, but the PC is an open platform while what EA is talking about here is a console, which is a closed system.

Vicky Christina Barcelona. A bit uneven in its script's pacing, but the whole film is just so goddamn sexy, and I'm not just talking about the lead players being hawt. I'm talking about how they're all so incredibly sensuous, from Penelope Cruz's paranoid craziness to Rebecca Hall's sensible, grounded maturity. It actually made sense that Bardem gets to have sex with both Cruz and Johansson at the same time. He really looks and talks and acts like someone capable of pulling it off.

Oliver Reed, a real life awesome dude. Check out the sections on his alcoholism and his death.

The Light Cycles don't turn only at 90

The Sims is like a masterclass in making a hardcore PC game appeal to the masses.

As far as I know, everything that was good and unique about Rainbow Six got removed after Raven Shield.

I'd be a lot more interested if they completely axed the predictably-trying-to-scary bits, completely reworked the plot and focused on the kick ass action. Of course, as the game is still called FEAR, I'm guessing that's not going to happen.

I don't really see how this is any worse than the writing in any Bioware game or, indeed, the writing in almost every other game by any developer ever. In fact, despite the overall writing incompetence showcased by Gaider here, it's still better than the writing in many games developed around narrative. All Final Fantasies come to mind.

Well, the War in the Pacific threads are a great source of entertainment. Also, watching your debating ninja skills getting put to work is always awesome. I'd like to point out how not gay and, in fact, actually incredibly manly all this praising, is.

Did you know you're rather awesome? I just wanted to point that out.

And yet you were fine with KOTOR.

Main Entry: per

The problem with Vista is not that it is a hog, or that it is worse than XP. Relatively speaking, Vista is as big a system hog as XP, and in terms of features, it's probably a bit better than XP. However, jsut a bit better really doesn't cut it, if you want to get people to change to a new, quite expensive OS. XP was a success because it was significantly more stable and secure than 98SE, which made it a worthy upgrade for a lot of people. I still use XP because it never, ever crashes and I've never had any security issues with it. Why would I spend an ungodly amount of money on Vista if I'm already happy with my current OS?

The idea is that a used game is exactly as good as a new game, while, say, a used car is a lot worse than a new car.

Not in any way.

I think so. I never tried it, though. The best Pinball games ever were the Digital Illusions games.

Elder Scrolls MMO? That feels like a really bad idea and really good idea at the same time. 1 s4w a MUdcRaB +odaY. i Ki11ed i+ Phor l0oT.

I think that, as far as graphics are concerned, NWN's engine was very good in the lighting department, what with having great spell effects and real time lighting. Everything else was rather underwhelming, however.

You're forgetting Advanced Pinball Simulator. The best pinball game on the Spectrum. Also, I think the awesome Micro Machines games were by Codemasters. This thread is awesome, by the way. It has been a long while since a thread was as active as this one.

Well, this sucks.
