Brutal Legend is one that Ive watched, for a long time; Definitely one I would buy sight unseen. It really seems like a game I'd like a lot ~but they'll have to make a PC port of it to get my money.

(Maybe in three years or so ~maybe never shrug-1.gif).

 

Giants had RTS and humor and it was awesome.

BL has heavy metal, RTS and humor. It is metal.

Giants ~(heck any early game by PlanetMoon), was incredibly awesome.

i think a lot of people must have never even considered what type of game brutal legend is. they probably just thought: its a game... with comedy stuff and metal /endthought

 

and since they dont like rts games because they dont have one of them fancy compooters now they complain that someone put blueberry in their cheesecake.

 

I DO wish that it was on pc though, it would be more better

I have been going through Oblivion. I have so far completed the Arena, The Dark Brotherhood, the Thieves' Guild, the Fighters' Guild, the Mages' Guild, and now doing the Knights of the Nine. After that, only the Shivering Isles and the Main Quest remains.

Do you have a leveling mod? It makes the game so much more enjoyable if you do! At least for me it did. o:)

Good lord, man. What would drive you to this madness?

The third chapter was boring & repetitive, though. Best were the chapters starring the Mechs & Delphi (who actually only wore a bikini in the US version of the game... for some reason -_- )

All with the same character? -_-

IIRC she had no bikini top in my version.

An anecdote: I didn't know why everyone found the valley of mines chapter in Gothic 2 so easy-peasy. Then I tried Dragon Snapper transformation spell.

 

Sheesh. Easy levels galore.

the genius (read: stupidity) of oblivion was that your master mage could also be the best gladiator in the country, head of the fighters guild, assassins guild, and reincarnated godslayer.

 

every character i made in that game started as a thief, stayed a thief, never learned any magic, and yet was head of the mages guild within a week or so.

 

they should have had a toggle at the beginning of the game : casual mode, normal mode.

 

normal mode would have made that type of **** EXTREMELY hard to do. bah.

I've been hitting the Fallout 3 DLC over the past few days. Picked up Operation Anchorage, Broken Steel and Point Lookout.

 

Broken Steel was kind of meh, but with the boosting of the level cap makes the other dlc less of an exercise in futility character improvement wise. Operation Anchorage I really liked, mostly for its look (and the Gauss rifle), I have to admit. Currently in the middle of Point Lookout, and this is probably the best, most atmospheric chunk of Fallout 3 I've played. I've also had a single crash in about ~10 hours of gameplay over the past few days (PS3 version), which, based on the reviews, makes me a lucky guy.

You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

It was pretty retarded that Bethesda took away Morrowind's unlimited training in Oblivion, yet on the other hand also took away skill requirements to advance through ranks. Then again, most changes from Morrowind were pretty retarded, to say the least.

 

Best thing to do in Oblivion is kill Umbra at level 1, nab her ebony armor & ub3r sword and head through the portal to Sheogorath's realm.

I could never kill Umbra at level 1. I am playing a Breton, with all Mage skills, except Alchemy. I replaced Alchemy with Blades. I am playing the console version with all the DLCs and the Expansion. I have 85 hours under my belt and currently level 30. My blades and Light Armor skill are at decent levels, thanks to the Arena for the initial boosts, and due to the Dark Brotherhood and Thieves' Guild my Sneak, Security, and Illusion got pretty high quickly. Illusion was the first skill I mastered.

Started a new game of EU III, this time as Milan. Conquered most of the italian peninsula and is just waiting for time to pass so Ancona can turn into one of my core provinces (and my bad boy rating go down to reasonable levels again) so I can form the Italian Nation. Then Italy shall rule the world! ;)

 

Picked up War in the Pacific again, having another go at the tutorials. I had started on that previously, but Real Life

The pre-Vegas Rainbow Six games were way too static and unforgiving. You would crawl around with the enemy standing completely still in randomized positons and they would shoot you smack in the head when the non-existant AI detected a single pixel of your hitbox. The ****ty AI killed both the action and the strategy

This is apparently how Bethesda Game Studios now does business in crpgs. Its utter crap, imo, and completely counter to the point of an rpg. It's just an exercise in fantasy wanking.

Hm, I disagree, I found them challenging and fun, not way too unforgiving or dull. Then again, I really enjoyed the planning aspect. You wouldn't get the "epic" firefights you do in Vegas, but Rainbow is supposed to "move silently, and strike like a thunderbolt" or something to that effect . The AI was bad in that it didn't really react to your presence as much as it should so ambushed were pretty easy, something the later ones are still guilty of. The whole appeal of the games was that they were unforgiving and realistic. The later ones sort of trade that for COD-esque non-stop action.
