Do you consider video games as art?
I did. Imagine my surprise feeling more ignorant than people believe me to be!

There is art in videogames, but that doesn't necessarily make them art.

It's going to be Toad on a quest to find the four mutagenic serum vials so he can become attractive and be given powers that do not suck.

Anything smarter than the core Elder Scrolls fanboys will spell doom for Oblivion's sales.

Bloodlines
Unofficial patches should just be that, patches. While fixing bugs is appreciated, making unrelated and arbitrary changes to the game is not. Giving the PC more than 20 experience points per solved quest or having every female vampire dress like Jeanette is not bug fixing. Might as well call them fan modifications because that's mostly what they are.

I was going to post something about you having just made my point and your contradicting yet self-paroding nature, but it would be a waste of my talents.

You don't discuss those views, you just repeat them on and on. It's not a discussion if all you're doing is repeating the same statements.

New Oblivion Interview
The last time you went there and tried to 'discuss' your views on Fallout 3 all you did was repeat the same "must have X features list or all else it's not Fallout" in nearly every thread.

You should try Icewind Dale 2, Wizardry 8 and... Diablo 2. No Eye of the Beholder?

Diablo can be a fun game. As a graphical update on standard roguelike gameplay, it's very solid entertainment with quite a bit of challenge in combat and satisfying character customization, although ocasionally it isn't as deep as some other roguelikes like ADOM. You seem to be trying to compare it to a traditional CRPG, but then again it's not meant to. If you ever enjoyed roguelikes or dungeon crawlers, you'll see some of the features that made those genres entertaining in Diablo. If you didn't, move on.

Then can you please explain to me how do firstperson and freeform have any impact on backstory presentation or exposition?

Resident Evil 4, Onimusha 3, Devil May Cry for PC
I think Nintendo is doing the more sensible thing. It's been a while since their main consoles have had any sort of market dominance; their throne and Sega's were taken over by the original Playstation. Nintendo knows it can't directly compete with that, so if it can't compete directly with one why should it compete directly with two - Sony and Microsoft? Even with Sony clearly maintaining an advantage, Nintendo doesn't seem like it will budge. They have a safe place in the videogaming industry, and they've been managing to stay relevant than most companies out there. Why risk anything else?

So, I finally sold my soul again
I haven't gotten it yet, but I expect to in the next couple of months. As soon as I get it, I'll be sure to give my impressions.

So, I finally sold my soul again
The Memory Card and GB Player I had ordered were supposed to have arrived somewhere between the 16th and 25th of January. Yesterday I sent an email to Amazon.uk to know if they had any information regarding the delay, although it was a stab in the dark because they had already shipped it on the 13th. With my luck, today, I got the package. FINALLY, off to properly play Metroid Prime.

My Logitech Dual Action gamepad usually does a great job when it comes to providing accurate and smooth control for console-based videogames on my PC.
