  1. It'll be Baldur's Gate HD.
  2. People liking a game takes away the credibility of the chart? This is just PC gamers voting for what games they love the most, this is not made by a single person.
  3. I actually have yet to encounter a bug, even tough ive played ALOT. Or maybe i have and i didnt notice it. Woho for the goty edition? GOTY edition is the same as the normal edition, it just lacks the extra content. I've put in a lot of hours, both into Oblivion and Skyrim, and Skyrim has been the stablest release they've done so far. It's glitchier than Oblivion is but you have to remember how many patches Oblivion has got. As is often the case with recent Beth games the bugs are usually of the hilarious kind. On my PC I'm yet to experience a CTD or broken quest on Skyrim, though there is a rather large list of them you could probably find. If you're not a big TES fan I'd suggest you just wait for a big Steam sale so you can benefit from low price and a less buggy game, possibly the expansion packs as well if you can wait a year or so. Also, roll a pure mage the first time you play through it. It has by far the best combat system compared to the sluggish melee system that hasn't really upgraded since Oblivion.
  4. It was worth the $5 I paid for it, but it couldn't hold my interest for more than a few hours. Even in co-op. I did like a few things, like being able to supress your enemy etc. but it felt like I was playing a watered down Company of Heroes for console. It was nice that it had a serious tone though.
  5. After talking to Kirk about Gearbox in the DNF thread I decided to check out what games they've made in their time as a developer. http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/games/ Wow. They have not made a single good game in their entire lifetime.
  6. Hey now, Kootra ain't too bad. Don't forget "All Your History".
  7. Maybe that's how they're trying to differentiate the two games. Let's be honest, CS:GO is CSS with higher poly models, new textures and slight weapon rebalances. Anything else and the pros would get angry. My real problem with CS:GO is the modding tools, the entire reason the original Counterstrike is still so alive is because of it's modding community, yet seeing as this is a multiplat release, one where PS3 and PC gamers will even be able to game against each other, what's going to happen to custom maps and custom servers? I haven't played a single match of CS:S on an unmodded server yet I fail to see how modding tools could be incorporated without splitting the community into fragments. Not to mention dedicated servers.
  8. But do you really think people will care? DNF has garnered itself a lot of bad reviews (for good reason) and it became a gigantic joke for everyone in the gaming community to laugh at. Even people like my sister know the name Duke Nukem Forever and know that it's really bad, and her games library consists of Plants vs. Zombies and Skyrim. People will see Duke Nukem on the cover and it'll be a turn off.
  9. Well it's not like they would have bought such a big name only to release a single game. They'll release this one and if it fails as well then no doubt they'll drop the Duke franchise like an ugly baby. I can't see it being a success though, console's are Gearbox's primary money maker and their introduction to Duke was DNF.
  10. You don't get to complain about bugs with a modded game. I dont have any mods installed. Your files will still be modified unless you deleted and reinstalled the game after removing the mods. Depending on the quality of the modder he could have replaced some of the files with his own edited ones. You could have also downloaded a mod previously that required SKSE (a lot of them do and this is a common mistake) which will really bug your game out if you don't have it installed.
  11. http://geek.pikimal.com/2011/08/23/gearbox-intends-to-reboot-duke-nukem-with-duke-begins/ Looks like a new Duke game will be coming around 2015. Can't see it selling very well after DNF tanked so badly unless they can build up a fuckload of hype.
  12. Maybe the speech didn't pan out very well.
  13. When you said modern games I assumed you meant the time period rather than the setting. Fantasy tends to be forest green while Sci-fi tends to be blue. Most genres have a set boring colour pallet that looks totally uninteresting. But I do think dirty brown can work if done correctly, take Rage for example. The beautiful bright blue sky with wispy clouds looks incredible when contrasting with the brown rock and sand that the environment is made up of. Much like the Aurora in Skyrim provides a lot of beauty to the rather bland looking world. It's just been way over done, especially in recent years because of the more "gritty" style of games the large amount of consumers want.
  14. You don't get to complain about bugs with a modded game.
  15. Check out Doom and Quake. This shit has been happening since the dawn of the FPS, it's why I love games like Tribes: ascend and Unreal. And the only reason I liked Bulletstorm.
  16. Well there were was that "hl3_weaponizer" stuff floating around in DOTA 2 and Alien Swarm files IIRC. Could be the Grav Gun of HL3.
  17. And most people agree Half Life 2's ending is the worst part of the game. When you were talking about the train crash you didn't "epicify" it like you did with BF3, I was simply adding in the QTEs much like you added in "in the ready position" every few sentences. All the BF3 cutscenes do is spew exposition all over you in an attempt to link the otherwise totally unrelated missions together. I called strawman because you're full of shit, I never said games don't need story or cinematics. I simply said BF3 does it badly. In no way has gaming "evolved" from what is was in the 90's and early 00's. Perhaps the only thing that has gotten better is "cinematics"(aka not interacting with anything in an interactive medium) but gameplay and story has gotten progressively worse with only one or two exceptions. Games need to stop ripping off of movies if they want to be an art form. The one rule of cinema is "show but don't tell" because that is the strength of the medium they're working in. Games are a different medium, they are interactive, therefore their rule should be, to quote TV Tropes Too bad developers don't understand this concept and think that driving the medium forward would be far better achieved by aping cinema.
  18. So much strawman it ain't even funny.
  19. What's his username then.
  20. Fixed it for you. And in a COD campaign I can stand in one spot for 30 minutes while my squad glitch out because their AI isn't built for doing anything unscripted then decide to walk one step towards my objective and suddenly BOOM BIG EXPLOSION BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING EVEN THOUGH YOUR OBJECTIVE MARKER WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF SOME ROAD FOR NO APPARENT REASON. Not to mention the the campaign being so scripted I can't even open doors until the game decides I'm allowed to, scripting in games like COD and BF are just so ridiculously badly done that it removes me from the experience completely.
  21. He also ate a chocolate cake with his ass and dressed up as a woman to sing cheerleader songs. I look forward to the day he's behind bars.
  22. I've tried a voice acting forum and gotten two actors. Provoiceboard or something.
  23. Banned for not listening to this 52j2GYmUV6g Not even nostalgia. This piece of music is incredible.
  24. I just played a CTF game with Egoraptor. Man he sucks.
