You, sir, are wrong. Am I... and why is that? Seriously, perl has it's place, but it's pointless for a newb to even bother with it, Java is far superior as a first language.

Perl is not as useful... I would actually recommend Java. And I actually dislike Java.

Yeah, I thought it sucked *meh*, alot. As for Rare, they're not a company I particularly care about.

I've never been much of a fan of Halo, the level design is crap, the gameplay is too slow, and the multiplayer was a joke. If Halo had been a PC game and not a Console game at release, it would have been passed over as being "just another FPS", which is from my humble knowledge how it was recieved by the PC gaming public, alot of console gamers with PC's did buy it tho'. It did give console gamers the first chance to experience a FPS that was playable and worthwhile.

ahhhh Crunch time...

because the sound takes place of the text. Eh...maybe its just me but that makes no sense. But I'm probably just a crazy loon and I really shouldn't derail the thread because of it... Basically it's a style of narration. It's still images, layed out like a comic book, and the audio is very much akin to a radio drama. It's very much like having the comic read by a bunch of actors. has that helped? (Also, thanks Meta)

Where the images for the story are delivered via a static screen, usually with spoken dialogue. Ala max Payne, and freedom force.

erm.... How do I mod the poll, I can't find any options, GAWD I feel dumb...

I'm just curious as how people prefer comic book story telling in games, and even if they like it at all... So let me know what you think, personally I'm a big fan of the max payne style of delivery, its simple and effective. (If you can think of any other games not listed let me know, or games I may have gotten wrong )

So would people say they prefer the MAX PAYNE style of comic book story telling?

Bah they ain't that good...

Gothic series, where dying is so very difficult.

Yes, they'll run at the slower ram speed. Edit: DAMNIT META... STOP KNOWING SO MUCH! You make me look bad.

What do you guys think about Comic book style cutscene's?

How bizzare, I have the DVD version which worked fine... it's powered by Unreal 2, I found it to be an exceptionally stable game.

I'm sure I'll play it again; I was having a tremendous amount of fun when the game wiped out on me. Disappointing, but what can you do. I'll wait for the next couple patches, then give it another go. It is an awesome game. Don't take it personal, I'm mostly jesting.

Now is a fairly good time to upgrade... Or build a new rig.

Because Red Sonya owns your ass.

Is there a list of what the patch fixes anywhere?

And so it was that she retreated to her comfort zone.

What's bad about it? It just doesn't seem to be of the same standard of other titles, it's not offensive to the eye, but then again I don't find wizardry 1 offensive to me eyes... So... Meh

OMG Meta has uber powers... :ninja10:

The name sounds familiar. Where's Darque when you need her? Good question. I thought we were cool, she hasn't said anything to me about her not being here. Then she's obviously avoiding you personally ...

The Gothic series isn't as great as certain people seem to claim, but it isn't a stinker, not really.

That's bad...
