A number of years ago, when I decided to replay the entire ME Series, I made the decision to grab the games on PC via Origin. As you mentioned, while the core games are cheap, its the DLC that costs the money, and the DLC is ever-important to this series (and quite good, especially in Game 3).

Get your facts straight, ace. ALLEGED Rapist by a single accuser. Who, in truth, never agreed to testify in court. Instead? She backed off a formal lawsuit and instead settled with Kobe via a civil suit.

Boosting is the equivalent of buying an account in the old days of MMORPGs—always a hollow feeling.

Hey, what the fucks goin’ on?

Sad part is, Witcher 2 and Witcher 3 haven’t/won’t age well either. Witcher 3, a vastly overrated title, suffers from many of the same problems the first game did, primarily with its dreadfully hollow and disconnected combat system.

You guys who are asking for some 1:1 remake are lost. I don’t get your mindset, and it always appears you are oblivious to the fact that a form of media that existed <x> number of years ago, which is later recreated or revisited for a new era, will be different.

FF12 was the best JRPG to revisit with fast-forward in play. Given that combat was pretty much automated and you ran around a ton, and needed to grind often in spots (to either level up or get lucky on treasure chest drops), this made an 80 hour game more like 30-40 w/o taking out any of the enjoyment factor.

Why do we need to go back in time to rehash a bad game yet all the while attempting to make it “not so bad” 10 years later?

Exploration? Great world? It’s a linear ride that tells you exactly where you can and can’t go. What are you people talking about? This game is such an overrated mess. It’s a reincarnation of the year 2007, and the games from that era. It added nothing new or progressive to the action-adventure genre that we haven’t…

My Steam Review sums this one up... Added a little, but here’s a true review of this uninspired experience.

But access to reaching people through or because of the internet is. It’s the equivalent of applying for jobs. Pre-Internet, if you wanted a job what did you do? You physically printed out your resume and either walked it over or instead mailed it. Now? You press a button from a computer. Meaning that for a single job…

It’s mainly because the bulk majority of people who post on the internet are young (twenties and below) and young people are the most susceptible to trends, memes, and whatever is hot/funny at the time because their mind is not yet mature enough to fend for themselves, to identify as a true individual (though sadly,…

Underwhelming gameplay footage, and I am despising the choice in all characters looking “Barbarian Themed.” Barbarians, Shamans, Druids, tribe-based fantasy classes .... my least favorite category of fantasy, followed by the archetypical “Cold/Frozen North.”

Betas were great back in the late 90's and early to mid 2000's, especially for MMORPGs, which really were the genre that fielded the largest and most important betas in existence. Waiting for MMOs back then was antagonizing. So little information existed on the games/internet at the time, and most of what you…

Agreed. I logged in for the first time all month and did Heck run 2x, and that’s enough for me. I don’t feel like farming ectoplasm each time, then having to run through Heck 20x to unlock a challenge.

Their first batch of performance issue fixes comes out sometime in Nov. per Gearbox’s notes yesterday. They have a lot of changes coming next month on top of those, but they said future patches are going to start working on optimization issues, ability to skip cut-scenes, more inventory space, and the like.

It’s supposed to be a continuation from where 2nd Gig left off. Season 3.

Large GITS: SAC fan here (actually, was just finished watching both seasons for the 10th or so time last night, so this news is timely for me).

Champions Online had the best overall character designer in any MMORPG for creating unique characters from scratch. Easily. I was a fiend for creating characters/outfits in CO for many years during its prime days, having won a number of contests (not that it was difficult to). What I always liked most about CO was…

As a better game, but like the rest of the MMORPG market, stale and dated.
