Am I missing something? So Bethesda doesn't make the guy charge money, doesn't steal the music to sell themselves, doesn't ban it entirely. . . they just insist on a proper copyright notification? What, exactly, is so evil here?

Its called "school." Consider that a 50% in school ( whether grade school or college ) is not "average." Its "you failed the class, and need to retake it." Similarly, games really shouldn't be graded on a pure bell curve, since you kind of do need a lot of room to distinguish between the...

TES 5: Skyrim Marvel vs Capcom 3 Portal 2 Arkham City Dragon Age 2 Mass Effect 3 Last Story ( hopefully! )

Re: ME2, I disagree slightly. I think Bioware intended for it to be a trilogy from the getgo. However, they probably found they had to somewhat restrict the second game, once they actually started making it. Its a transitional game in the plot, so it has to, well, transition. I still give...

You know, I think a mountain is being made out of a mole hill here. Reading the actual rumor. . . all that's really stated is that the game will involve the Blades, and it will be a "sequel." Except every game since Daggerfall involved the Blades, and every game since the first has been a...

This. The Brotherhood doesn't need to be white knights of the waste, but they also don't need to randomly turn hidebound, isolationist, and outright self-destructive.

Or, depending on how you played through FO2, he could have "mid level politician" as a *cover*, when actually he's "head of NCR's intelligence service." Granted, you'd need to explain why he didn;t get involved in the affair with the Legion. . .

What was so useless about the Bridge of Death in FO2? Bridgekeepers Robes were probably the most useful armor you could get until pretty far into the game. I don't think I stopped using them until I got powered armor.

Here's my theory: non-combat perks should generally not worry about being unbalanced. If anything, giving strong reasons to pick non-combat perks would be a very good thing. So, for instance, Lead Belly should work something like, food and drink doesn't give you any rads at *all*, and any...

Still stretches credibility, having you survive being shot up in a random encounter regularly and repeatedly. Sure, that kind of stuff is fine in CoX, but CoX is a completely different genre in which death is rare and reversible anyway.

I'm still baffled why anybody has hope for the game at all. Its being published by Interplay, the same people who destroyed the franchise in the first place. Also, one thing that confuses me: how a Fallout MMO would handle respawning. Most MMOs are fantasy games, so you can have magic...

Only if they don't want any chance of success. FFA means that the griefers can make the game absolutely unpleasant for everyone else, which means *no one will play the game.* This is not a freeware roguelike.

Actually, I disagree. I found the Duke Nukem 3D held up surprisingly well, when I played it. Sure, you need the obligatory texture update pack type stuff, but the gameplay is still fun. Holds up a hell of a lot better than, say, the early Quake games.

What I would like, if they must merge the skill and aug systems together, is something with several categories of ability, but multiple levels of qualitative enhancement. So, instead of improving the Cybernetic Strength attribute giving you simply more lifting capacity, each improvement gives...

The footage from E3 actually reminded me of Alpha Protocol some, albeit in first person. This is a good thing, though, in my opinion. My main concern is how much variation in character design there is. I would settle for "Bioshock level", if the plot and choices in mission solution are...

Not *all* console RPGs have suffered; example, the afforementioned Persona series, and various Tales games. I think its more, Square-Enix are the big boys, and they have suffered some kind of nasty internal creative breakdown. Hence most of their new releases for several years being mediocre...
