I've heard mixed things about boiling point, is it any good in your opinion? As for Hellgate, I'm just not interested. Sounds like it will be Diablo in the 1st person and considering neither Diablo nor FPS do much for me, I'm just not interested. Unless its like Serious Sam, then it could be...

A better title for this article would have been a console "gamers" manifesto. I put gamers in quotation since I doubt anyone who plays on a console as oppose to a PC is a real gamer. Some of it was just whining, but a few good points were made, such as every effort being spent on graphics and...

To be honest, the first couple of hours I spent playing Torment I didn't even realize it was DnD. By the time I got towards the end, I had completely forgotten that it was DnD. Anyways, Torment is actually pretty weak on some Role Playing aspects. For example, it is relatively linear, and...

Its more than just the boss from Bloodlines, his name is the Sheriff. Since NMA has a Sheriff on its homepage... well, I thought it was clever. @kormy 8/10, I think its pretty bizzarre avatar, which you either like or hate. I averaged the liking and the hating and came up with 8. What is...

Whatever tipped you off to the fact I have Bloodlines? :wink: Anyways, I thought the puzzles in Riven got a little to out of control. It was like nothing could be a simple figure out the pattern. There was always some catch or something to remove to comple the puzzle. Way to difficult...

OK, for many of you this doesn't mean anything, but I've got a stack of B and N gift cards that I thought I'd never get around to using, so its time to go games shopping! Heck, I saw an advert for a used N64 for $15. Not that I'd ever play it though... Anyways, anyone have any recent games...

6/10 I'm not opposed to the military man holding the gun, its just at that angle nothing can be seen. I can't see the face, I can't see the type or shape of the gun...you see what I'm saying? Hence, it looks like a hard to discern blob of green with some white border.

Then ratty's sig needs to be punched, too. In the meanwhile, here's what I feel like doing... http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/?t=archives&date=2002-11-01

I think the X-box titles were the Dark Alliance things... And I think people who are still making All your base comments need to punched. The joke has been worn thinner then crepe.

Chapter? Verse? Name of Emperor? Edition? Not to mention that even if true, is an emperor the Church? I find it hard to believe, though. Sacred Scripture was just that, sacred. Those who needed to change it were quickly branded heretics. While Roman emperors played a large role in...

Revelation 13:18, "Wisdom is needed here; one who understands can calculate the number of the beast, for it is a number that stands for a person. His number is six hundred and sixty-six." I believe that is the only passage in the bible to mention 666. Anyways, the nice thing about Catholic...

I don't have any sources to cite, but going from memory... The number 666 refers to the Emperor Nero, who iniated a persecution that killed many Christians including Peter and Paul, how much more of a Beast can there be? Anyways, each letter in Hebrew actually equals a number, since they did...

Well, there is the out that Fallout is the future of the '50s. So, something that resembles a helmet that people in the '50s thought would exist would "fit" into the universe. But, relying on this to turn PA into Sci-fi is bad news.

As much as we like to bash publishers, myself included, they do offer a lot for a starting developer, and even well established ones. Most notably is publishers no how to advertise... usually. Anyways, a publisher can put in add for your game in their bestsellers box, which does a lot for...

I don't know what one of those are, and I don't want to know. But I don't think Haggle is worthless, especially if you are an technologist who need to buy expense ingredients. Heck, if you managed to save 30,000, I think, you can skip a pain in the neck series of quests.

You also have to consider how popes like John XII got power. Hint, they weren't elected. Picture the wealthiest man in your city, who has extended family living in the city thats pretty wealthy, too. Now, this man pays for and controls the police. He also has a militia. Well he's at it, he...

Ran accross this biography of a former pope. I don't know how authoratative it actually is, but makes for a fun read. http://www.rotten.com/library/bio/religion/popes/john-xii/ It is important to point out, however, that John XII was not a member of Hitler's Youth. I repeat, he was not...

I will give the detractors this, a gunslinger is not a character build for newbies. The easiest class to start with, in my opinion, is a half orc beat with an ugly stick melee specialist. Then supplement melee with some spells and techs(healing big time). Focus on dexterity and speed over...

Careful now, if we judged all games by IGN reviews they'd all be MUST-BUYS. They are notorious for judging a game on only what it did right, and completely ignoring whatever it did wrong, no matter how much it did wrong. So, read other reviews, gamespot's will tell you what reasons to not get...

Yeah, if those complaints against Creative Assembly are valid... thats a bad company. Shame too, I just got into Total War with Rome, and it seemed like a pretty promising series. Didn't they get bought out by one of the big, bad publishers?
