Nice summary, think I'll stick with my modded bg1tutu but if more people get a chance to play this great game then that can only be a good thing.

In a word, yes. Yes to licensing breaks backwards compatibility and yes windows 7 software should work on windows 9 and 10 just like XP programs work on windows 7 & 8. Microsoft are very good at backwards compatibility to say how complex an area it is. A big part of backwards comparability too...

Nice. I meant so what Microsoft do what they want, what the fuck does that have to do with anything? If they do things deemed anti-competitive by the EU they'll me made to change them. Can't speak for USA, don't know how it works over there. And opinions not backed up by any reasoning or...

Yeah, but Microsoft shouldn't just not make good products out of fear of pissing off OEMs. I can see how surface will likely cannibalise some ultrabook sales if it's successful but... so what is my response. What's out there now isn't working!

What point is that? That Microsoft are willing to do what they want? But where's the evidence for that? Microsoft themselves have said Metro is designed to help them in the tablet and phone markets, as well as simple PC users who want a streamlined and consistent experience. I think...

I agree, I think there's a good chance they will be forced to relax the rule on no content distribution software being allowed in their store.

I'm waiting because nothing I see suggests that to me Windows 9/10.../15 will be any more closed than 8 is. The move to Metro was brave, smart and about fucking time after some laughable tablets and phones. Metro though is a clean and usable, it's had a fuckton of research done on it by some...

Microsoft weren't even allowed to give their own browser preference over others in the EU, there's no way they'd be allowed to shut out all other software stores from Windows. Even if they were able to get away with it, Microsoft are making a point of not alienating their old customers...

Wow, a lot of people pissing and moaning about things they know nothing about. If you don't understand only ARM devices will be locked down and don't see why Gabe might not like the idea of competing store then please don't comment until you do some research. On Windows 8, I personally won't...

Yeah, but I think that's just a case of everyone having their own line on how bad is bad enough to retroactively ruin the preceding stuff, and their own opinion on how bad (or good) the ending actually was. Imagine that just after the scene with the illusive man, as your Shep is approaching...

Hmmm, I'm not so sure... I've been playing Baldur's gate in 1920x1080 already this week, so the higher resolutions are already here and have been ~ 8-10 years! If mods are still compatible then that also seems like it will massively limit their ability to make changes; I can't imagine many...

Got to say this is a pretty apt analogy, you have no right to force that person to do what you want, but you have every right to be annoyed, tell them so, and change your future habits. I like it! I like how you've read absolutely nothing on the subject but still have an opinion.... I would...

Wow, sorry are you getting confused? When did I become one of the very very few people doing that? You wanna ***** about people unfairly adjusting the metacritic score (for example), I will be on your side, that doesn't change the facts that firstly I am going to tell Bioware I would like them...

Wow, as much as I love BG2, this will be a massive fail*. Firsly, the graphics of Baldurs Gate are already good, I love both games as they rely mostly on artwork which still looks good. Only the 3d sprites could be updated really. Secondly, content wise the originals have too many mods for the...

Yep, all you've done so far is agree with me. Thanks. Oh good, here we go. Why is that all I can do? If Bioware decided to end Mass Effect 3 with a hardcore rape scene, that's still their choice. Would you still not like me criticising the ending? I also pointed out that Bioware would much...
