    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    I had my first terror mission last night... learned that I should have put more time researching new weapons.

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    I'm loving snipers. I bring two and they absolutely own the battlefield.

    Retro City Rampage

    TMNT, Bionic Commando, Mario, Contra, Smash TV and others all crammed into one 8 bit slew of awesome? Where have you been all my life? (Except the TMNT sewer level with the bombs and seaweed... fuck that stage). I hadn't heard of this until now. I've been on an indie kick for quite some...

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    I'm enjoying it so far. Some of the dumbing down is silly (I liked TU's in the first game and don't know why they took them out) but some of it is an improvement (I hated having to buy individual clips and stuff for every gun and make sure the guys had ammo going into battle). Sometimes the...

    Shaker: Old School RPG Kickstarter

    I don't really care about the ad (I thought it was funny when it came out) but Daikatana really showed that Romero can't make a game without Carmack.

    Shaker: Old School RPG Kickstarter

    Any game that has John Romero attached to it is one that'll never see my money. I don't want to be his bitch again.

    Prison Architect

    http://www.introversion.co.uk/prisonarchitect/ Just started playing this last night. I used to love games like SimHospital and this game is a mix of Dwarf Fortress and SimHospital style games. They're in alpha now and are running a Minecraft style payment plan (buy the alpha and get all...

    Actual, turn-based strategy X-Com sequel in the works

    I put my pre-order in because: a) I love x-com b) Firaxis is awesome c) My laptop can play it Pretty excited to get a halfway decent xcom after such a long wait.

    Moments: Becoming A Wasteland Warrior In Fallout 3

    I found the "leaving the vault" moment to be nearly identical to "leaving the dungeon" from Oblivion (as mentioned above). Then it was re-used again in "New Vegas" except it was "leaving some guys shack". It would appear that this trope will now be used in every Beth game I guess.

    Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk Leaving BioWare

    I did. The first one felt like a very shitty 3d Baldur's Gate and I didn't even play the second after reading what a piece of crap it was.

    Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk Leaving BioWare

    Aside from the ME games (which I really like) Bioware hasn't done much to really blow me away in quite some time. Long gone are the KOTOR / Baldur's Gate days.

    Obsidian's Project Eternity

    Gave $20 to this one. Pretty excited to have the closest thing to a new "Black Isle" game that we'll ever see.

    Pigs can obviously fly: Black Mesa is coming

    I'll believe it when it's on my hard drive.

    Are JRPG's this lousy?

    Some are good and some are lousy. Just like every other genre. Some of my favourites are: Chrono Trigger FF VI FF VIII FF X Earthbound Demon's Souls (not typical JRPG)

    Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes

    Can't wait. Been a huge MGS fan since MGS1 and I've loved every entry into the series. Can't wait!

    Black Isle Studios is back

    I find this very sad. There was a time when I fired up PC games in late grade school / high school and certain company logos filled me with happiness (Black Isle, Bioware, SSI, Psygnosis, etc). Most of those companies are all dead now (RIP to them all) and to see one of them exhumed for no...

    New Counter-Strike announced

    It wouldn't be CS if the AK didn't end lives quickly and very, very loudly.
