Musopticon?

Is Civilization 4 really that good? I admit, I've only played Colonization and Alpha Centauri, of games corresponding to that design(or should I say genre?).

I'm still only at the commencement of the Fallout Tactics campaign. The mission is to liberate the city of Quincy from Beastlords and it is proving delightfully combat-lite when compared to the previous mission which was pretty much just my medic running around with a shotgun, killing a ton of roaches. Deathclaws are hellishly hard by the way. At least, hellishly hard when compared to raiders. And it's not like any creature in the game can't be defeated by breaking it's limbs and then blinding it, no matter how many tons of hitpoints it has. So far, a fun game.

Jesus, I'll be waiting for this. Although Olyphant is missing the skull shape of 47, otherwise the design seems pretty spot on.

Yes.

It is a major part, but hardly any adventures actually retire until the campaign becomes boring/too hard/whatever for the players, so the actual mechanic is hardly ever realised. 9th level spells are reserved for epic campaings usually and there the characters have often already managed to fool death and old age. Lichdom for instance.

Yeah, it could be Relic. They have people for a couple teams and iirc only one game in the pipe.

Amorphis - Weawing the incantation New Amorphis! Sounds a lot more like Tuonela than Eclipse, which in itself is not a bad thing. There's some unexplainable resemblance to something which I just can't grasp right now. It's bothering me though.

Your Geforce is toast, welcome to the club. That fragmentation and stretching is definetly from overheating. I had a similar issue and it was solved only when I acquired a new 3d accelerator.

I don't know, maybe if on a different tactical scale. What I meant that this kind of strategic gameplay is like custom-fit for handhelds. I know, I should have rephrased. I don't think it would sell on PC or Xbox, but on PS2, why not?

This is a massive spoiler as well. FEAR's combat is near-excellent, but it relied too heavily on the little girl to deliver the scares. Truth to be told, she was portrayed a million times scarier in the promotion materials than in the actual game. A decent game all in all, but the initial press releases and such way back then made the game appear as something vastly different. I thought I would be facing various paranormal activities, sort of like a conventional ghosbusters fps, but instead get a freaking clone army and a Sadako-wannabe.

On any other platform it wouldn't sell, but on handhelds I expect things to come around bit different, since, besides ****ty license games, the platform is known for strategy and puzzlers.

http://www.thq-games.com/au/game/show/2300# Well, this is an unexpected endeavour: Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command marks the first time that the brutal, war-ravaged world of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe will be playable on the PSP. Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command features fast, action-packed combat through turn-based strategy and an engaging, authentic single-player storyline. Gamers play as the elite Space Marines of the Ultramarines chapter and strive to combat the encroaching evil of the ruthless and daemonic influenced Chaos Space Marines through 13 cinematically-tied missions. With a robust multiplayer mode featuring 9 unique missions, gamers will team up and go head-to-head with other gamers worldwide as either the Imperium of Man or Chaos Space Marines, ensuring hours of unique replayability. Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command will also fully utilize all the portable functionality of the PSP, bringing the Warhammer 40,000 universe to life on handheld. * Compelling single player game consisting of 13 unique missions * 9 unique multiplayer maps for Local or Global games, with small, medium and large map variants to cater for games from 2 to 8 players * Fully destructible, real time 3D battlefields mean that no two games will be the same * Pick from two Space Marine chapters or two Chaos Space Marine Legions to play as in Multiplayer games, in battles between Imperium vs. Imperium, Forces of Chaos vs. Forces of Chaos, or Imperium vs. Forces of Chaos * Over 20 ranged and close combat weapons taken directly from the Warhammer 40,000 universe, including the Bolter, Plasma Gun, Chainsword and Power Fist What this means for us not owning a PSP, I don't know, but I'll be looking out for this title. If not for anything else than for the fact that the last squad-based turn-based strategy was a damn long time ago(Chaos Gate 1999) and for the fact that the more WH40K games are successful the more we will see. Hell, I might have to get a PSP, or an equivalent.

This thread is about Grim Fandango's Third Year. Ahhaha.

What the hell?

Wild Mage is perfect for soloing. Cast whatever, and just keep casting. Random mayhem ensues as enemies burst in multicolored chunks of flesh that spawn squirrels once they hit the ground and the main character gets bovine intervention every 30th spell.

Jesus, that doesn't matter one dingo. Do what you like. Runes of Power - Summoning

I bet 10 bucks that the first major modification will be one that coverts the game to d20. Such is life. Personally, I think distance from the whole D&D affair is one of the game's and indeed the dev team's strengths.
