"Adressing the weak spots".... what weak spots?!?

How can he choose chocolate? Edit: 60 hours and 30 quests solved... not too shabby

Arghh... instead of getting rid of the awful boxing minigame, they are throwing more resources at it The voice acting was quite decent, but the facial animations and body "language" was completely stiff and at odds with what the characters were saying Umm, yeah I guess that was to be expected, showing off all the epic, actiony, heroic, immersive, cinematic, buzzword 17, etc. stuff on an event like this. Cerebral stuff just isn't sexy. I haven't given up on the game yet

It had plenty of nice swamps to make up for the shortage of sewers

You're still going to get crazy lag for stuff hosted outside of Australia, though. And, you know, that's kind of the beauty of it - 22 million lazy Australians with more bandwidth and speed than they could possibly hope to use, but constrained to traffic within the mainland? I imagine some pretty cool and uniquely Australian applications, inventions, social networks and entertainment sources are going to pop up, catering solely to Aussies. Not that I dislike what the rest of the world produces, but it dilutes our identity somewhat by the sheer numbers involved - something like 2 billion people on the net compared to 22 million Australians. I thought it was because of all the Swedish immigrants Meh, this country is fubar. Election coming up in a few days and the choice is between Abbot and Costello or Julia "Backstabber" Gillard. We are all doomed. No interest in the Greens? They will be controlling the balance of power after all. If even the Greens don't interest you then I can see why you might feel that way (perhaps the Australian Sex Party would get you excited?), but even so I don't think a ****ty election is justification to feel the country is ****ed. Because by most measures you care to name we're at the forefront of the world (although there's still so, so much about this country we can improve). My residency application is still being processed (soon to enter its fourth month), so I can't vote even if I wanted to Since I can't vote, I've only followed the campaigns rather sporadically (and what I did see made me cringe). If I was forced to vote, I might indeed vote for something green or independent.

Oh come on, even Chess Boxing is turn based

Either the security guy who manages their internal surveillance camera system or Feargus' alt

A thread with an identity crisis It's just a jump to the left...

The Witcher had a very good combat system, somewhat similar to Blade of Darkness. I hope DA2's combat is more action-oriented like in ME2. because this might force Bio to revamp the level design. Aiieee!... Begone vile person! Dragon Age was a mixed experience (imnsho), but the combat mechanics were actually quite decent. I didn't feel the same way about the set encounters and the horrible habit of scripting most encounters making things like sneaking worthless, but thats a different design issue. Now, if they could just improve the horrible corridor shooter mechanics in Mass Effect games to be more like Dragon Age 1

Such excitement... Take a deep breath and relax Volourn

Moved to the DS III section... I did consider Developers Corner for a moment, but that would just be too cruel

I wonder if that franchise can dig itself out of the mire it immersed itself in? IV was a disaster and V no good. Kings Bounty is the only clone that managed to bring a bit of fun back, but even that is a pale shadow of what it was from III and before (and lets pretend that Disciples III was never made).

"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Retcon."

Congratulations... I think Reminds me it's about time to get my motorcycle scheduled for its second service (soon to pass 5000 km).

'The Island' Nice uncomplicated entertainment to kill an hour or two with.

Damn you for getting my hopes up Yet another RTS game.

it is. Of course the announcement that Funcroc linked to said absolutely nothing about where it's headed next. One can always hope, at least for a while

Getting to the proverbial end of the line. More Fallout: New Vegas here

Start of old thread End of old thread Umm, never played Fallout 3. I'll just go back to my cave and lurk... Edit: As somebody was in the middle of saying when I slammed the door shut on the old thread:

So, upper management claims something is wrong with the methodology but adamantly refuses to even hint at, much less elaborate on what... Maybe the monkeys made fools of them all and put up an act, pulling the researchers legs and getting a good giggle out of it when the cameras were off?

Actually, we are talking about 50-100ft waves... http://soundwaves.usgs.gov/2005/03/ At least where the majority of the casualties happened in the Aceh province.

What can change the attributes of a gun?Belief. What about regret, love, revenge or fear? Only faith in Him on Earth and the proper care and litanies to appease the machine spirits of your Bolt Gun will ensure proper dispension of The Emperors justice... While vile mutants still draw breath, there can be no peace. While obscene heretics' hearts still beat, there can be no respite. While faithless traitors still live, there can be no forgiveness. (from 'The Catechism of Hate')

Because, like, it's about marines. In space. It's easier to remember than 'Adeptus Astartes'.

Yes, but it is mostly "new" old games bought on various sales the last 3 months. It's incredible what you can get for $1-$7 when you are an opportunist
