I thought it would turn out to be a Geforce card and not some meat thingamajig though.

Nice effort, but I think we all saw that coming from miles and miles.

Homeworld, or Homeworld Cataclysm. The homeworld 2 AI punishes you for playing well and rewards you for being a tard. It's called 'adaptive AI' and it completely ruins the single player experience. On the plus side the fleet management works a little better, squadrons instead of single strike craft, easy selection, etc.

I thought Knowing was a cheesy hack job, but that's just me I guess. Predictable, dramatic high points marred by over acting, no sense of humor about itself. If you like the premise I recommend this instead. Anyway, giant robots > aliens. I don't blame Cage's performance though, I mean he can play a depressed drunk very convincingly. It's more a case of that truism 'never work with kids or animals'. I much prefered trees going apesh.it.

Yeah, but like the man said, it's got nothing at all to do with how the game will look/be like.

It's completely indestructible, and I'd wager there are specimens still out there well over 30 years old. Unfortunately it doesn't have a USB jack, but I think there are still adapters around.

I dunno what dodging bullets and trying to avoid informants and the Chinese authorities, who would deport them back to the death camps automatically, has to do with immigration. These are people risking it all to get out of a hellhole and down to Seoul where the South Koreans accept them automatically as citizens.

"Buh, buh, if the USA is so great, how come people are running away to the Soviet Union??? Riddle me that!!!"- You, circa 1930. You remind me a bit of what the Danish Communists used to say about East Germany, without actually having met any non regime East Germans of course.

Because in practice, all communist regimes have been totalitarian. And to be honest, I think what you're aiming for is socialist democracy which, while not unworkable, teetters far too close to totalitarian for my liking, because the government has so much raw power. In Italy and the former Russian republics municipal government has been run by communists (this is while the country is democratic) as far as I know it worked tolerably well.

If North Korea was so fab I kinda doubt people would risk their lives to get out, and they continually do.

So theres wardogs, what else. Your basic D&D bestiary ?

It's a standard hack/slash, just as Half-Life 2 is a standard FPS, and NWN2 - Mask of the Betrayer is a standard RPG. If you base your opinions on how things look... I've played Halflife 2 and I'd say it was your basic FPS with some puzzles and race stages thrown in for variation.

What's 'dynamic touch', are we talking about an input device. Where does it go on you.

I don't know anything about this game, but it looks like your standard 4 party member hack/slash. I could go for something like that. I guess it will come down to the DRM. I don't want anymore games requiring constant internet connection or only 3 hardware profiles/installs.

Yes and yes.

I was trying to remember the name of a game I was playing around the same time as Nomad Soul. It's a dark sci fi/puzzle solver/shooter. where you play as a little fat angel who possesses people, to get into the factory possess the supervisor with the key card.... that kinda thing.

I just read this and lol'd: [/img] Not the original, but at least I own it. Some of the mini games in Nomad Soul are absolutely horrid. The shooting is bad, the mele works tolerably. I must admit I lost track of what I was supposed to be doing pretty quickly. It's not so much ahead of it's time as simply trying to do too much. I never finished it, but I stuck with it about half way two times, and I consider that an accomplishment. The only thing it's got going for it is the atmosphere.

I dunno the single player looks pretty meh, and that's he doing playing a shooter on a console, contradiction in terms.

I'm currently subsiding on a diet of whatever is on sale, today was bananas and salmon. Not the best combination for a full course, but do continue, I like to live vicariously through people with a budget for food and toilet paper.

Yeah but a 100mbt line is only a 100mbt line if all the stars align correctly and a human baby sacrificed on a winter solstice.

Adam Sandler isn't very good, but somehow I don't mind watching his bad movies.

I played through nocturne. Pretty decent, good atmosphere. Not awesome though.

Unfortunately the 'boss fights'/final levels in all the installments of the game are very poor, but everything up to that is great. In Homeworld # 1 you were rewarded for finishing levels with low losses, in Homewold # 2 you were punished for playing well with the new 'adaptive AI'. The worse you played the easier the game got, and vice versa. Pretty much completely destroyed the single player experience for me. Homeworld Cataclysm (came out between 1 and 2) is a close second to Homeworld with a lot of really challenging missions and no idiot IA punishing your successes.

Also I would like to mention Homeworld for those who might not have heard of it. 360 degree RTS with the usual resource gathering but without the focus on buildings. your entire fleet can be hyperspaced away from the enemy. Superb for online or lan. Below what looks like a heavy cruiser engaging a shipyard.

One of the best games for stress release ever! Just started playing soul reaver 1. It took a while to get it working, damn 10 years old ps1 port. Blade of Darkness is indeed quite awesome, you would'nt expect it to be for a mindless hack&slash, but the attention to detail and the level design are top notch. I didn't like the gameplay much in any of the soul reaver games except the orginal 2d isometric Cain game.
