The latter sounds a bit like when I'm trying to talk my body into getting out of bed in the morning, especially towards the end of the week Sat in front of my computer yesterday and stared blankly at the screen. Got a bunch of new Steam and Gamersgate acquisitions that need some love and attention.

Hmm, Tigs did a 'Let's play CK II' not that long ago

This. Somebody mentioned Pazaak. One of the few minigames I didn't hate passionately after trying it, because the game was fun in itself. It could have been a completely self contained game, like solitaire or mah-jong and provide entertainment for it's own sake, not as something to "beat" to get extra bonuses elsewhere. Lockpicking, hacking, etc. needs to go die horribly. They have all without fail being "work" rather than "fun" and rarely completely optional.

I remember way back in time in Denmark when headlights were still manually controlled. It didn't happen to me (more luck than skill), but a number of friends had to do the walk and ask for help (and cables). Much teasing ensued

That *really* depends on what genres you play and like (or dislike). The "indie" game that I've spent the most hours on is Gratuitous Space Battles It's an acquired taste though

I don't think there was a deadline? Sadly, my spare games are physical copies (with wear and tear), so only spare digital download I was entitled to (once Wasteland 2 gets released) has already been promised away, but not actually given yet. You sort of need a key for it first

Thread getting a bit long. More thread here

Start of old thread End of old thread Interesting game The Void. I really need to complete it some day

It is entirely possible to build a gunslinger with the feat that lets you block blaster shots with your bare hands I am still a bit miffed that the original kotor forced my badass rogue to change class into a whimpy jedi.

Yeah, but they're all in their neat little packages so I can get a picture of the size, but little else. Yeah, that sure helps Sorry, not much help then. I've got a programmable mouse with its own lcd display, memory and processor and a gazillion features, but I use it mostly for 3D applications, not for gaming. Gives a bit of self esteem and bragging rights, but that about it. I chose it mostly because it looked like my old mouse. Insert some Norman Bates reference here.

Well, the flash sales are dangerous for my credit card. Picked up a Orcs must Die! 2 and a few flight sims that were on sale too.

Ideally you would have some well stocked physical store where you live? Not one to speak, having used the same Microsoft Intellipoint 5 button mouse for almost a decade, but the single most important thing for me was whether or not the physical shape felt "comfortable" in my hand (and I got size XXL hands) Second priority was the number of buttons as I've grown fond of multiple button shortcuts over the years, but it would take the back seat to the actual shape of the mouse. Speaking of which, my current one looks at least superficially like a similar shape to the one pictured.

I thought the blue cheese would break down the enzymes without any help from a digestive system

Junk food. Latest tool in the genocide arsenal Peace? Fat chance.

That would be a typical self-centered human view point though. It's based on the assumption that we are important enough for other species to pay attention to, not to mention worth the effort to send space junk in our direction. Just waiting for ESA or NASA or some such to discover a probe floating by with the message "Greetings, I'm Zzxzxcc from the 6443 system. I worked as a treasurer for the former benevolent dictator and need your help to relocate the planetary funds of the former regime..."

Maybe it's because the Gaza strip has effectively been turned into an internment camp (I'll be nice and not call it a KZ camp)? When you keep a group of people prisoner, isolate them, demolish infrastructure, block access to trade of goods (and ideas), you create a breeding ground of resentment and radicalism (what was the name of that movie where New York had been turned into a big prison island???). The west bank has it slightly easier, because they can still access supplies and get in touch with the outside world through Jordan. Root of the problem is the Apartheid policy that dictates that non-ethnic jews are not allowed to make up more than a certain percentage of the population in the state of Israel, so all those people kicked off their land has nowhere to go but the refugee camps and twiddle their thumbs (or build bombs, preach hatred, whatever).

Did you try the v-sync settings on/off? Just an idea since it sometimes does funny things with mouse controls in some games.

Set your mouse to not accept cookies?

Thread getting a bit long. More stuff here

Start of old thread End of old thread Guys I am really surprised that no one has commented on this game, I'll try again. " Look at this exciting uupcoming game" 'A' for effort. Looks interesting enough. Will wait and see feedback from release version though

Tupac? Some kind of Inca deity?

You'll probably get as many answers as there are people around answering them (i.e. it's an entirely subjective thing) I hated the switch of focus towards "actiony" combat (which is pretty poor as far as action combat goes, so a wasted effort), the QTE's (giving it that rather console like look and feel), the feeling of tiny cramped areas (which may be a real concern or not, at least they give the impression of being tiny), the piss poor responsiveness of Geralt to your controls (IMO), the very contrived gimmick in the beginning where you are forced to tag along, despite there being no believable reason to do so (even worse than having to drag peasant girl everywhere in NWN2), they still waste resources on mini games, music took a drop in quality etc. If I could be bothered to play the game a bit more, I could probably add to me list of grievances. The most serious offense is however, the game simply doesn't feel like fun to play.

Not everything. If it has 8 legs, it's 50/50. If it has no legs, stay away from it. For the rest, it's trial an error Edit to add: If it has tentacles, stay away from it too. Box Jellyfish are nasty.

I like the control scheme
