    Dust to the End

    I really like the game, played though it 5 times in a row. It is a mix of The Patrician games and a Fallout RPG. If the economic system was more dynamic, or dynamic at all, this could be endless fun. But unfortunately, as it is, the fun ends as soon as you have too much money.

    Elite 4?

    No, feydakin wasn't making that up. We already saw what he describes in Elite 2:Frontier. If you like that spacey stuff, I can recommend: http://en.spaceengine.org/

    Elite 4?

    By realistic he means our real galaxy, as in you look out of the window, see Sirius shining in all its colours, then start up Elite 2 fly there, and feel all warm and fuzzy. Or how about landing on one of the moons of Jupiter after observing them through your 99$ telescope and watching the solar...

    It may finally be coming, nearly 15% is already funded in the first 12 hours. I got excited enough to wet myself, finally register on kickstarter and dig up my credcard. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1461411552/elite-dangerous

    The Fall (Game not music)

    I tried it a while ago. In the first half hour I was mildly amused by an interesting world, but then I got to my first combat and a wild shootout ensued with people firing at each other like a hundred times at 2 meters distance, thats when I deinstalled it for good. Fast arcady real time combat...

    Thoughts on Arcanum in 3-D FPS/Hybrid?

    There are much better examples, in fact the only new game releases I really enjoyed in the past 5 years. The Kings Bounty remakes from 1C. In fact 1C seems to have many games in their catalogue with turn based combat, but those seem to be largely unknown in the western game world. I only found...

    Unsurprisingly, Duke Nukem Forever reviews are negative

    And yet this Duke already sold half a million copies, pretty incredible for a 2/10 game,right?

    I'd like some opinions on Morrowind

    Morrowind has better atmosphere and more diverse locations than Oblivion. Also menus and items look more serious. But at the heart it is the same level scaled lifeless world, and the only reason to play is to enjoy the beautiful graphics, which in morrowind look like crap now. I did play the...

    Strategy games (recommend me some if you please)

    Imperialism is amazing, I can not stop playing it. I know it for only 3 years or so , but I think it is already my most played strategy game . I love both 1&2, I play them in tandem. Somehow all the elements of the game fit so perfectly together. Plus it is perfect for a netbook in the sun...

    funniest moments from fallout games

    How rude! Lynette is the nicest person in the game, if your int is low. She even gives you a hug! I encourage everyone to take drugs (not just in game) to lower your int and talk to her with low int, one of the most heartwarming moments in the game!

    Looking to buy a new PC. Is this configuration any good?

    Yeah! I have 2gb of 5 year old RAM in my PC, same age cpu and gpu, but recently bought a intel ssd and installed windows 7 on it (total expense 220 euros), and it is the opposite of a hog (a cheetah?). I have not noticed any ram issues so far and the whole system starts up in 25 seconds from...

    Fallout iPhone

    Of course it is more enjoyable to play with big screen and soundsystem, but I typically don't have those with me when I am riding the train to work. There is already dosbox for android, but it is in its early development and runs too slowly. What about Windows 7 mobile phones, does software...

    Cooperative Gaming

    Baldur's Gate 2 was perfect in coop, I had so much fun playing through the whole game with a friend. Also played lots of Ghost Recon and Ravenshield with a few friends in coop missions, immense fun. Serious sam can be fun for a short while, but it is too braindead. Also fun can be RTS games...

    Ebert: Video Games Can Never Be Art

    If this was written on a forum by some poster he would be called a troll and often banned. He says games can never be art, then why bother criticizing the quality, quality should be irrelevant then. And most of all, this guy considers movies art? In that case I prefer games over art, since any...

    Fallout one of the best game series

    Nope, I did think for a while that my own age (31) is the problem, but since then I have replayed through great games like Fallout 2 again and found new great games like Kings Bounty and Fantasy Wars, discovered old classics like Master of Magic for myself. Now I can safely say you can still...

    What's the worst video game you've ever played?

    Games that I really wanted to like but no matter how long I tried just kept boring me: Dungeon Siege: Just lame lame lame Master of Orion 3: Terrible Supreme Commander: I was really perplexed why I could not get into this one. Fable: Played this one pretty long for a bad game (5 hours or...

    What does the EC in "2mm EC" ammo stand for?

    I always thought it stands for "Energy Carbine", but then I played too much Anarchy Online where that is a term.
