    Alan Wake for PC is "Still on Remedy's Hard Drives"

    So the message is, a PC version is likely, and it's also likely to suck. (Since we didn't care)

    TF2?

    They aren't Call of Duty laser rifles that's why, heh. If you come from a counter-strike or COD background it can be akward. I know it was to me at first. Then after I got used to it I had a grand time. Haven't played it much lately though, been into other games. But it's always something I feel...

    Poll: Poll: Torchlight Storyline

    The game is about clicking a and looting diablo style, and has a very light story, that basically consists of..."These dungeons have ember in them which makes you powerful but also corrupts you, follow this crazy old guy through a bunch of dungeons until you eventually have a final boss battle...

    Old games you want to see get re-released for online gaming.

    I'd buy the Baldur's Gate games if they were on steam

    Sandboxes... The Many Choices

    I've heard some good things about Crackdown, but I haven't played it personally.

    Do you trust review sites like gamespot or ign?

    I watch Video reviews to get a better idea of what the game is like, but I don't always trust their review scores. It's usually more reliable to me to watch developer interviews or demos and gameplay videos, although sometimes even those make the game seem better than it really is. I also...

    OnLive Fully Detailed in Columbia University Presentation

    I wish he would have touched on the actual resolution these games are running at. I mean it has to be severly nerfed in order to work, especially for a PC game. It's cool technology but not for me.

    My Little Escapist Pony

    This is one of those personalized gifts that when someone gives it, everyone else in the room feels guilty, cause the gifts they bought are from Walmart. Also I applaud the use of the word "poniosity". That made me laugh.

    Deals on Steam

    Mang, I have the same problem. The sales are too tempting especially when they are under $10 for a game you've had your eye on. Then, no time to play them all! D:

    Best way to get into PC Gaming

    Do you really have Vista 32 bit? Because it's only utilizing 3.25GB of your 6GB of RAM. OP: You want a 64 bit OS for a new PC for that reason. Otherwise I'm not savvy on the other benefits of 64 bit.

    Favorite Game Developer

    Valve, Blizzard. I play mostly PC so it's pretty easy, both have never really made a bad game, and they support their games after release. (L4D2 haters might disagree but I don't). I also like anything Bioware makes, and I enjoy Relic's RTS games, but Relic is pretty bad at balancing.

    Dragon age how long did it last you

    I did it in about 70, but I did get the achievement for 75% of side quests and I'm pretty sure I was close to 100%. I also downloaded a mod that let me respec my characters and I played around with that a bit.

    Best way to get into PC Gaming

    If you don't mind following instruction manuals (Usually only breifly) and shopping around for parts, building your own PC is the best, and cheapest. It's also not very hard, hardest thing is probably hooking up your case, but the manual for your motherboard and case make it very easy, just they...

    Poll: Bethesda Softworks - What is up with these people?

    I like Bethesda games because of how they give you a feeling of doing whatever you want. That and the modding communities for their games on PC are pretty active. But the actual quality of their games and the gameplay mechanics leaves a lot to be desired.
