Expansion packs come with the notion of a set price ($20-$30) and a certain minimum amount of content to justify putting that thing on a cd and shipping it out. DLC ideally has no rules and the only costs involved are internal, since you don’t have to package and sell it until there is...

Backdoor action confirmed! Wait...

Yeah, I rather a game that is tough but not punishing (Prey did that for me) than a 1 hour game extended to 10 due to constant re-loading. Bioshock was somewhere in the middle, It was not THAT tough and and I rarely had to respawn unless I did something dumb... but respawning did not fit the...

The setting and action kept me going to the end, but after I finished it I was totally done. It is a great game but if it was modable there are more than a few things I would change.

I have a strange relationship with Bioshock, like by the time I finished the game I was "full" and excused myself from the table, satisfied for sure but not in a rush to revisit it. When I changed harddrive I never re-downloaded it from steam and at this point I might get psyched for the sequel...

If I wipe my mind and figure I'm playing for the first time I think the main thing that would bug me is the perspective... it is hard to see down hallways sometimes or look through windows and stuff. Also some people might have a problem with the pace, not just the slow combat but also the slow...

The things I consider particularly japanese is their skill for abstraction and stylizing... so odds are a japanese fallout game would have a variety of really abstract mechanics mixed into the combat, but often when the japanese sacrifice realism for fun they do a good job. Still I KNOW you...

Is this true? Movies can do gruesome things with a PG-13, it is mostly swearing and sex that offends the people who come up with ratings. Still dude, I think Terminator and I think R.

Still good (and surprising) news no matter how you look at it, especially since GOG has been selling a lot of copies recently, so whatever position the fallout trillogy is in this is after a lot of people recently purchased it through other means. Like I've said... theres a lot of stuff...

Is this in response to another thread? I'm a little lost. Loved Jagged Alliance 2 though, and that I remember stating repeatedly.

Yeah, in an "other developer living or dead" argument I would have loved to see Troikas take on it. It would have probably been like Vampire Bloodlines which was buggy and FPS oriented but it was also extremely good in terms of characters, dialog, options and design. It was a particularly kind...

A friend of mine took LimaLama which is one of the ugliest martial arts I've ever seen, when he would break down the Katas he would be like "neck, groin, neck, stomach, neck, groin, groin, groin". I would joke that every fight ends with running before the police show up. It did not help that his...

I liked NeverWinter Nights 2 but it was linear (as far as I got) and the engine made the game slow, a lot of time was spent fighting with the camera and loading. Everyone I would like to see take on the franchise would probably make it into more of a first person shooter, such as 2k Boston...

Also them OWNING it means they can have people they trust to make a good game and some good money work on the franchise, such as Obsidian. I know the whole point of this thread is to weep and wallow, seeing how only the potentially inflamatory bits are excerpted here but seriosly, other than be...

Wish that was true, check out the recent Prince of Persia game. Also a lot of expansions pick up where the game left off, the only difference is that more likely than not the game left off with you dead in an ending that nobody really liked.

I kind of liked that because it was the opposite of the original Brotherhood... but I would have prefered if the Outcasts (i.e. oldschool brotherhood) would have been in charge and the guys who think they are paladins of Light and goodness where relegated to small groups on the fringe, living in...

As somebody who liked Fallout 3 I would debate your post but honestly that is a really witty joke. Actually I do agree that the Karma Perks are just there for lazy people who want to use 1 character to do everything, which is my biggest pet peeve with some rpgs... opening one door SHOULD close...

[spoiler:d55092793d]Basically somebody dies at the start of each episode, the the show revolves around guys who work at a funeral home. At the start of one episode you see a jogger and he stops and is out of breath and starts taking his own pulse. I thought "wow, he is going to have a heart...

Ever watch 6 feet under? The funniest scene in the entire series involves a mountain lion and a jogger. As for Zoo's I recently got to watch a lion put on a bit of a show, he got up and chased some birds out of his pen and then started roaring and acting all macho, like "yeah, I rule you...

:clap: If it makes you feel better the lion is sitting on a particularly phalic sword with balls on either side.
