That doesn't work unless they've been undergoing Psi-training for a month. The two psi-related stats are hidden until they complete the training.

Considering that you pretty much have to use glitches/cheats to beat the second game, where's the problem?

Your repertoire of french swearwords is guaranteed to improve... :)

There's a thing like this with the first Gothic game. I can't remember all the details, but one of the sub-quests (one involving you running around the land looking for pages from a journal) was supposed to have you meet up with a character that would give you awesome powers, like summoning...

The number of "this year" games I've played is also very short. I'd say The Witcher EE, because Portal hogged the spotlight (rightfully so) back in 2007.

IIRC, you're talking about the Canary Islands. Primarily known for being a holiday resort for the elderly, it also houses a volcano that's not only dangerously close to the ocean, but the ocean is actually moving in towards it. Soil erosion is weakening the walls between them. When the ocean...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdEfdITkKqM They just don't make games or intros like this anymore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2np-2ZpbIoQ I always thought Westwood made good intros without the usage of video footage. If I was to pick one good intro, it would be this one...

Psychonauts and Portal. Uhm...that's it.

Not scary, but creepy as hell. A good film.

I've never played any of the Paradox games so I can't say anything about them, except for the lulz I got from reading the patch notes, especially for the first HoI. Paradox games are buggy little blighters when released. But I'll have to chime in with the people that said Alpha Centauri. It...

To be honest, Serious Sam 2 is shit. Try finding the older prequels, First and Second Encounter. Give them a whirl yourself first, and decide if they're too much like Serious Sam 2.

Fair enough, I didn't remember that part well enough to be honest. Pay attention when reading, I said that it was the biggest flaw in the opening steps of the game, not the entire game. I'll just re-post my 3-year old point from the other time I said it: # Another part about this game...

I've said this here before, but the biggest flaw I found with Arcanum's opening is that the blimp's home port does not appear on your map at the beginning of the game, suggesting that neither the player character nor Virgil know anything about the place. So...how did they get on the blimp...

Ditto. Awesome vid.

I tried the demo last night and have seen that it's Lemmings + Incredible Machine...except they took out all the fun gadgets out of IM but kept all the worst parts from Lemmings. I think I'll give this a pass, thanks. Braid looks more interesting.

I would have picked this game up on Steam when it was first released had it not been pulled from there a few days afterwards - due to regional distribution crap. Via Steam, the game won't be available here until March next year. Then the economic recession came and hit hard, so this game is...

There is a 2-month old thread about EvE over here. If you're too bored to click the link I can point out the highlights: rcorporon is playing the 2-week trial and decided to keep playing afterwards. (Today he says he didn't get a huge thrill out of it). horse said it was...

Yes, but is it as brown as Arx Fatalis?

Isn't Oil Imperium available on the PC as well? The only "old" game I'm playing these days is Thief 2.

That reminds me, I still need to try to finish Gothic 3 one day. My last attempt got the Hashinin faction screaming for my blood before I was ready for it. The bugs did not help either. Neither did Nordmar, that place is a bitch to navigate through. There's an expansion pack of sorts coming...
