Thanks for the review Raithe.

Topware has some bundle sales going. They are mostly older gamers, but there are some good ones among them that are well worth it. RPG Bundle (6,69 €) : Two Worlds, Two Worlds 2, Enclave, Knight Shift, Jagged Alliance 2, Gorky 17, Septerra Core RTS Bundle (5,18 €) : Earth 2140, Earth 2150, Earth 2160, WW2: Panzer Claws, WW3: Black Gold, Planets Under Attack I really loved the Eart 21** series. Wasn't a fan of Two Worlds 2 and regreted buying it.

This forum has rules about having rules.

GMG summer sale starts today 'till 13th. Summer voucher code for an additional 10% off: IFDSUM-MERSAL-E10OFF valid until 10am UTC on Monday 9th June.

Lana. Lana! LANA!!! Danger Zone!

But does it have (alien) romance options?

If we are talking shows I'll just throw in my own personal experience and bugger off again: I am/was a huge BSG fan. Got the pilot/mini-series on DvD. Then bought Season 1, then Season 2. After Season 2, in preparation for Season 3, Scy-Fy did a series of free webisodes. These were regionlocked on their site to US IPs only. When they added them to the Season 3 DVD, they were only included in US DVD releases, not the EU ones. So I installed a torrent thingy and downloaded the free webisodes someone had put up. (I found the link to do so on the Scy-Fy website were someone had left a comment with the link for non-US fans ) Obviously I could have lived fine without those 10 minutes. But it is pretty ****ty from a company to tell a paying fanbase that "Meh, screw you, you are just extra cash for when we ar done with our primary target audience, so why should you get the same product (for more money)?" So all of a sudden I am a pirate for wanting to see what the free stuff is... edit: In the end I mostly agree with Hiro. Piracy is easy and bad enough as it is, without companies actively alienising their fanbase. It's the whole "gateway drug" aspect: get people to pirate out of "legitimate" reasons and you start breaking the barrier for non-legitimate downloads.

Malc you have to admit its always better playing an RPG where you can explore the various Romance arcs? Nope he doesn't. Planescape: Torment Arcanum of Steampunk and Magik Obscura Vampire: Bloodlines To name a few. An engaging story does not need active romantic pursuits for the protagonist to engage in. Romance does not make writing engaging or good just by being present. Good writing is what makes writing good. Ideally, if the romantic arcs were well written and did not take away resources from other aspects of the game, then, if they weren't forced down people's throats, one could make an argument that it is always better to have more options. But it is not better to play a game with crap on the side just for having crap on the side over one that doesn't have that. After all, most of us here enjoy a good steak, none of us though would ask for the cow to crap next to the plate. (yeah I know, terrible analogy. Just pretend it was said by Al Pacino or someone else who can get away with saying anything in a movie.)

Completly unable to beat this boss in Van Helsing 2. It is a huge spider that births tiny spiders. There are also half a dozen eggs that continuously birth tiny spiders. The rate these spawn is so high that they completly fill every inch of the ground, making it impossible to move and eventually taxing the system so much (as it tries to spawn basically an infinite number of spiders) that the game crawls to a slideshow of the player dying.

I have started a second playthrough of SR4 and am having a lot more fun than I feared I'd have. I am so not gathering all the clusters again though

No idea what either of those are, so probably nothing I ever cared about

Hmm, this, Child of Light, heck even Stick of Truth. UBI seems to be trying to create an alternative list of titles and set themselves appart from the other big publishers as well as trying to break free from the one trick pony thing they had going with seemingly being all about Assassin's Creed.

So the tl;dr version of point 2 is: Dear Watch-Dogs devs, please play Alpha Protocol.

Same here. Just that I called it Trash

Then she might have appeared in Wolf s01e03 first.

Which season of Walking Dead? I mean to finally finish Season1 soon.

That sounds just as bad as trying them to accept you as a customer when you move country frequently

Got my own Chimera in van Helsing 2. According to Katarina's wishes I named it Fluffy. Send it out into the ink to hunt in the Dreamlands and hopefully bring me back some treasure. I am really enjoying these minigame-thingies they added: the resistance missions you have to select one of four commanders, each with their own stats and approaches, to lead the men on the chimera hunts, where you decide which region of the ink your chimera will hunt in and bring back loot from. I wish the resistance missions were more frequent, but then they could not have been custom written. You can't have it all.

Best character they came up with for this "game": And choices that matter:

Finished episode 4 of The Wolf Among Us. It was good. Though some of the "life as a fable is so unfair, Bigby you do not understand" spiel is getting a bit tedious. It is good that the next episode is the last. Didn't seem to be too much when it comes to choices. Conversation options yes, but most will probably not affect anything.

Started on Episode 4 of The Wolf Among Us. Will play through it after dinner.

Let me know if I can help

You have that character's inventory. Most likely that includes bonus skill and ability points from various quests or feeding the statue in the swamps. It also means your character probably had access to different perks, unlocked by playing. You should rather quickly find good stuff, but some of the oranges or fully enchanced yellows you may already have can be very good for a while. But the money is really usefull. I spend a million gold rather quickly

Having a blast in Van Helsing 2. Finished chapter 1. End of chapter statistics show that I missed some secrets and a couple of quests. One of those quests I knowingly refused, the other may be bugged. Well, will have to pay more attention next playthrough. There are a couple of things to do differently. For one I need to answer all riddles correclty next time. I knew I was answering wrongly, but I just couldn't stop myself But I need a break for the night. The Perun area is crammed with enemies that are a pain to fight, summoning tons of minions to swarm you. If unprepared you can die very easily there. 8 out of my 9 deaths the whole chapter where in this area :/
