I wonder if this thing has enough detail to flare up my arachnophobia if I saw one of those damn spiders in it.

I want the omnitrack and the Rift so I can literally walk around Skyrim. Run from Riften to Solitude as my daily workout. That would be awesome.

It is not that you want to shoot in a direction you are not looking, but that you can aim the gun realistically and shoot stuff other than the center of your vision. That way you are aiming the weapon, not your head. Yes, new games will have to take this into account and old game just wouldn't be able to use it. The…

Wait, so what would be the proper tactic? If you are out manned and the enemy is flanking, isn't the proper tactic to retreat to an area where the enemy's advantage is taken away and hopefully gives you the advantage? Aren't the Spartans famous for using this tactic against the Persians? So the people reacted exactly…

I actually quite enjoyed my time in the beta. The game looks great thanks to great animation and design. The combat is fun and requires some twitch gameplay as you abilities have visible cones of influence, which I dug quite a bit. You can dodge damage, which is awesome. I even liked how "self aware" the game is with…

It is definitely a cultural phenomena. In the west, we tend to have characters with relate-able motivations. X bad guy is trying to take over the world because he is a holocaust survivor and is driven to eradicate all ethos that promote exclusivity or bigotry (but was born without the ability to recognize the irony in…

I read it as, no matter how awesome PM says his next game is, he will never buy it because PM cannot be trusted to accurately or realistically describe his products to his customers.

No, it sounds like someone who has given multiple chances and has been repeatedly burned. You sound like the girl who goes back to the boyfriend that beats her because "He swears it will be different this time!"

It is not entitlement when someone promises you a product, accepts your money for said product, then you realize that the product is only 10% of what was promised. He is a snake oil salesman. It's top quality snake oil, but still snake oil. The original Fable was touted as having hundreds of hours of gameplay, when in…

TL;DR

This. Is. AMAZING. This is why I have always had the deepest respect for CD Projekt. They are craftsman first and foremost and are not interested in pumping out crap for the sake of pumping out crap or to appease investors looking for quick profits and who are only interested in returns, not quality of product (which…

I don't think people have a problem with being "over-promised" something. Hell, that is how sales work for any product. I think people have a problem with the consistency and magnitude at which it happens with PM. He has a history of making grandiose claims that he just can't back up. I bought the first Fable day one…

Better yet, make a game that uses high def stop-motion animation. You use the same 360 degree camera tech used on the matrix, that way as you animate the characters you can capture that animation from every angle then super-impose that onto levels and what not. I would also like to see Resident Evil 2 get the Resident…

Seems weird to debut a new awesome toy set in the "Chat Roulette" universe, but I guess for every niche there is someone there to sell to it.

I tried to get through the whole thing, I really did, but the corporate buzzword dropping and the excitement of the idea of cutting what used to be (and hasn't been for a while now...) a whole experience into smaller, more expensive chunks is too much to handle. You know why it takes $100 mil to develop a game? Greedy…

This reeks of backroom talks, likely with warnings from international ratings boards of getting the dreaded Adult Only rating (or their equivalent). Getting this rating is basically a death stroke for a game, as the biggest retailers who profess to be "family friendly" will not put an AO game on their shelves, which…

Actually, I don't believe you even need to refrigerate them. In Europe, they do not wash the eggs and the only hard and fast rule they have is that the temp must no fluctuate to prevent the eggs from having condensation on the shells, which could harbor bacteria. So you must pack and ship them at 65-68 degrees. They…

I am the potion hoarder. I have potions that are not for my build. My character is a 1h + shield fighter, and I have a million +x% Two Hand potions that I just can't get rid of (among others...). I mean, what if I need them later.

I looked at that keyboard and I...

Because I am a masochist, I played (not bought mind you, I was only ever duped into buying the first one) all three. I think 2 was the most solid, or most complete\finished. 1 was the foundation, and three was that time you decided you were going to DIY a new bathroom, but just ended up with a huge hole in your house…
