WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Veteran can be murderous. I actually checked out some walkthroughs for the sniper level, otherwise I'd never have finished. "Heat" was the toughest part for me, though. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

SadExchange Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 I'm playing through Risen right now. Really enjoying my time with it so far. Reminds me of why I fell in love with RPGs, exploring. Got the game and my new rig yesterday and am just loving my time spent with it so far.
Tigranes Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Finished the Witcher with the neutrality ending. I already knew about the silly 'plot twist', perhaps with the Enhanced Edition's proper dialogue Jacques de Aldesberg would have been a little more compelling. I think the general idea had good potential, there was just too much unanswered (or not properly thought out). In any case, the game remained fun until the end, and the story was nevertheless more enjoyable or as enjoyable as most other RPGs in the last 5 years, with the notable exceptions of K2 and MOTB. And it beats K2 in terms of gameplay. Waiting on Football Manager 2010 at the end of the month, might try the Risen demo if I have time.

Got the game and my new rig yesterday and am just loving my time spent with it so far. My pre-order screwed up so I'm running downtown on my lunch break to buy it today. And yes, I am jealous. Any why has Webhallen become so sucky? They used to be good, cheap and reliable. Now they're just cheap. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
alanschu Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Just finished extracting with McMillian in CoD 4. This game is pretty hard haha. But so intense and fun!
alanschu Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 As a compliment to CoD 4, even when I play the game at work and have to replay some of the missions, I don't care because it's effing fun!
Nepenthe Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 As a compliment to CoD 4, even when I play the game at work and have to replay some of the missions, I don't care because it's effing fun! The only mission that started feeling a bit tedious to me was the second-last one. Most other missions are heaps of fun, and I still occasionally whip through one of them just for kicks (I don't do multiplayer). You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Calax Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Started a game of Empire:TW I'm Prussia and was having trouble deciding which way I wanted to go... then that decision got made for me when the Turks decided to attack.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Started playing KotOR 2 on the PC. Much better framerate than the 360, controls take a bit of getting used to, but the game is a bit annoying in some ways. There is no widescreen support and the game is unstable to say the least. But hey, it's still great. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad!

Rosbjerg Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Playing some Batman Arkham Asylum, it's pretty sweet! There are some annoying sections, but compared to the overall awesomeness it's quite forgiveable.. Also playing some MTW2 with the LOTR mod, very cool as well. Fortune favors the bald.

Tel Aviv Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Oh snap! Where's the content kick in, Telos? I love TSL but by the third play-through Peragus is some tough going.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 It could've been a lot better if they had turned down the lights and made it look more like a dark, messed up space station ala System Shock. Heck, I wonder if you could go back and mod it so it was more like that. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad!

Try Europa Universalis instead This is Paradox Softwares interpretation of what France looks like 3/4 of the way through the 100 year war: “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Gorth Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Money does come into play here Gorth. I'm tryin to save for Assassins Creed 2 and COD:MW2 I see Anyway, I think you were right, France wasn't really a unified country until way after the 100 year war (approx 1453). I've never played Empire TW, so I don't know what time period it covers. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.
