Considering at our current level movies just end up with some tame 'track that IP!', it'll be a looong tie before it even bears any similitude. Uplink was the absolute best 'cinematic hacking' expose in media, and it just happens to be game.

Same, huge GW1 fan. For me it let me down at the horrible fixed skills and category slots. The biggest pull in terms of gameplay was the pseudo-TCG system where you built a 'build' with 8 skills from two professions. The diversity and fun you could have with that is awesome and was the lifeblood of PvP.

It'd never support itself in Pontifex.

You know, might not be the truth, but i have read the comment feed on their Kickstarter. It really did sing of hired help to put them under.

I have to ask, at what level is it considered that they are 'breaking' the game? Exploiting it? Since this looks very close to what i'd call exploiting a glitch in the AI. Sure, it's extremely hard to pull off, but does that make it any better?

... Transgender Gman? I think that's a new one folks.

Was just going to mention that. What the hell?

PSA: There will never be another Halo game on the PC.

Considering he's ripping music from the originals... won't be long lasting.

I found it fun in the beta, but i saw the future. I'd pick it up, have great fun with it for a month then it will slide out of view as my normal vices kicked back in and i went back in World of Tanks to farm some other virtual tank.

That explains a few things. And muddles others.

A great article. It really is strange to imagine how many things are not what they appear to be due to issues with perception.

Protip, it was piss-easier on consoles since moving the thumbsticks in a 'conflicting' manner is easier than compensating with a nonlinear WSAD and a mouse. Two different inputs all together.

I wrote five articles that i never managed to push to publishing on how horrible i think Watch Dogs was as a whole.. That should say enough.

That's something i don't see but really bugged me. For an Avatar that can already control all the elements she's doing a terrible job. You can argue she's fighting larger forces than what Aang fought but even so, she showed no prowess or success in her role. She was used, abused, captured and outright failed almost…

Season 1 was decently fine. The whole Asami thing just seems like a horrible thing to do in retrospect but sure, sideplots aside, it was fine. But that second season... From an Avatar point of view did she win /any/ battles? Seems like she just slumped her way into that ending. And yes, a lot of dickery abounded. They…

I really wanted to like Korra. I really did. The strong female trope is my favorite but in the end, she ends up looking like a horrible avatar and a very bitchy and unsympathetic protagonist. I don't think they wanted to go anti-hero with this one.

Now.. Was that really necessary?

For every indie project launched you see get a spotlight, there are fifteen just as deserving that got /some/ press and are playable but forgotten and FIFTY that ended up in a rut.

Oh? That an interesting change of pace for them. From thriller psycho-analysis faux-shooter to lighthearted zombie stomping? Versatility is one thing..
