Gorgon

He was too nice to that game, and he went on about the clunky magic and bows and stupid inventory because he couldn't be bothered to play it all the way to the end. I know the feeling, neither could I, but I wasn't getting paid to. Slacker.

Man this game is going to suck

I'm all for expression and tattoos with personal meaning, I just don't think I'll ever be able to find one I won't get tired of eventually. Most people have a patchwork of random ones, and there is always an ugly one they got while on an epic bender.

I wish there was a mod to remove all the class restrictions. I think I migth have more fun comming up with a class of my own. As I understand there are no mods at all because the file system hasn't been cracked. I gave ME1 a go on the strength of #2 and, well, the weapons sound horrible, really grating in your ears, and everything is slightly uglier, even accounting for the time of release. I guess there is really something to be said for polish over size.

And in a year or two you would grow irrevocably tired of all seven and slowly come to hate them.

That's because the combat AI cheats, the better you play the more enemies it sends at you. Try to be really bad and it will get easier.

Is it just me or does your display sometimes retain a violet tint after playing FO. Could be the colour receptors in my eyes getting saturated.

Hanibal beat Roma time and again with nothing but a rag tag band of random mercenaries. Imagine what he could have done with a real army.

I gave up on Dead Money, the CTDs are back in full effect. Same engine problem as F03. I guess I was lucky in the order in that it didn't affect me very much in the beginning. Maybe my installation is bad, but it's not exactly like I can just re install, I would have too download everything again. Too much of a hassle.

I got Mass Effect 1, couldn't get into it. Too spoiled by ME2. I can see what people mean when they say it's been 'dumbed down', the Areas are bigger in ME1, you can spend points that compliment the paragon/renegade scores, there are more people to talk to etc. Still, planet exploration is worse, and the sound mixing for the weapons is bad, so are most of the animations. At least ME2 is a solid shooter, ME1 depends on the plot, which was always pretty uninteresting.

I wouldn't want to replay either episodes. It's a good game, don't know where the worship comes from, it's not fantastic.

You need new ones after the old ones collapse. I got a bed and a couple of shelf thingies from Ikea once, they both came apart, don't have em anymore. I might not have assembled them exactly according to plan, it's too tempting to simply get going instead of looking at the diagrams first.

Swedes are the only ones who actually remember stormagtstiden, just saying.

It's a 7 gig game update, the patch comes first however. Once both are done you will be able to see dead money in the data files box.

I much prefer games tailored for ONE playthrogh where you get to experience most of what they game have to offer. I just finished Mass Effect 2 and was disappointed in the number of limitations they put in your way. A whole light side / dark side dichotomy going on with no option for special dialogue responses unless you were either a consistent psychopath or a tree hugger. Very limited skill tree, every power that was actually different had to belong to another class. etc.

All of that talk about duty and ritual suicide, it betrays a much more practical and mercenary reality. Why else would the Shogun demand that your children, your household, live in the imperial city if not to make sure the local Daimyo stayed in line. It's largely myth and wishful thinking, like the chivalrous ideals of knighthood.

Depends on what era Samurai we are talking. After Tokugawa gained supremacy the samurai had nothing left to do so the ones that didn't starve became bureaucrats and teachers. In the middle of warring states however, every season had been a campaign season for as long as anyone could remember, they definitely knew how to fight.

Didn't they do that already on deadliest warrior.

You know, once upon a time there were these things called add-ons, they came on disks like proper games and they were guaranteed to be something substantial, I miss those days. DLCs are a bloody plague.

I've played all the games. Didn't much like Napoleon, it had an annoying artillery ground shake effect you couldn't turn off, and there was the whole DLC scheme. Seemed like every unit had to be purchased seperately, I guess were not done with that either. Looking forward to RAN style action with improved graphics though. Kaftan is a moron, warring states period is the perfect setting.

I like a good costume drama, Titanic bored me though.

I'm not worried about length, I just think it's going to be really cheesy. I mean really cheasy

Dude, looking back at your posts on the subject, I wouldn't imagine that you like the thing. :D You should contact steam/EA about the rememption code, there's definitely something wrong there. You should be getting the Cerberus pack for free from Steam too and it's definitely worth THAT price (=nothing). Not as it should be. Of the other DLC, I heartily recommend the two I mentioned above. None of the other ones are really necessary by any stretch of imagination, Overlord is a decent sidemission but nothing else, some of the new guns are decent, but between Kasumi, Cerberus pack and what's in the default game, not needed. I'd definitely contact Steam support about the download code, though. Here we provide the essential public service of complaining about games. Consider this, if not us who else would take up the mantle.

Apparently it's just a PC glitch, they provided me with a download link for 5 DLC items they said I was entitled to. Manual installation should fix the problem.

Even though the code didn't confirm I now have a 'Cerberus' laptop with news in the game menu, maybe that means it worked, or it's just advertising stuff. Do I see the Hammerhead in the garage, new research projects ?.
