Well hilariously enough I am playing through the entire Divinity II: Eco Draconis/DKS remastered thingy (never played the original version... and it's quite good. Though it's very much just another RPG with dragons and swords and so fourth. So you'd have to really be up for that to get it. But it do...

It won't make any top games list i ever post, but I enjoyed the "experience". For one, the game was a pretty smooth, classy release on PC. K+M controls worked, was probably the start of the relaxation in DRM restrictions on games (despite still having DRM, but they started the crash of none). It ran...

Dead Space officially rewrote the history books on EA for me. (which is incredible, as usually it takes more than one game to sway my opinion of a publisher). The amount of videos of interviews etc. etc. of the developers out there is incredible and they actually talk about the development in a sens...

CSS
Age of Empires 2
Quake II
Worms Armageddon

You could also consider a timetrial of a level in an SP game... e.g. Level 1 of Max Payne 1 or something (as the game is already setup for timetrial)

Also... if you had a bunch of n64s... Goldeneye.

I actually have both version in steam as I purchased one of those developer catalogue packs with it in it after already purchasing it ages ago... but they changed the name and removed the old version so they are both listed in my games...

I think i used to care. But after owning both i really don't. Bigger is better in any event. So if i get a bigger monitor with more screen real estate and more pixels then i'm happy.

If they could bump the resolution up from 2560 at 30" then i'd be interested regardless of screen ratio.

My only thoughts on the review: -no comparison to nvidia offerings -bar charts have some weird colour choices... e.g. two different but almost similar blues for both a 5800 and 6800 series card in some. Otherwise very nice and you seemed to have covered most of the important stuff. Maybe you should ...

Just a note that if you get massive fps drops when more than a couple NPCs are around this is a known issue with facial animation. Turning off NPC emotions is a fix for now, using the console command "ToggleEmotions." Made the game work fine for me after several hours of it dipping down to 10fps wh...

Yeah saw it when it first came out, looks impressive. Will be jumping all over this one if it comes out as polished as zeno clash did.

Despite how perverted this might seem, i actually think playing a game AS the opposing side to the americans could be interesting/fun... err... well like it could be done very well from a story/historical perspective. Especially the Iraq conflict. Because from at least some people's perspectives it'...

-Does the UI feel PC-y enough? -Do you play with 360 or KB+M? (Is the 360 necessary for the analogue sticks? + Rumble?)- -Is there a good soundtrack? -Does it look good at full res + high res textures and stuff? (Are the graphics options better than on console versions?) This game sounds good.... bu...

After posting in here and finishing the Civ 5 demo, I caved and purchased the full game. Unfortunately i would watch the patch release notes for a few more weeks as the diplomacy system and the AI warfare/diplomacy are pretty average. Also the performance in the late game is a bit sluggish. Otherwis...

I don't think i'm excited for anything. DR2 looks to be rubbish and DLC oriented. Arcania has securom and well.... i guess Fallout: New Vegas should be good but it might just be a texture update set in a new map rather than any progression of the gameplay/story arc. There must be something... i gues...
