    War for the Overworld

    Hello gents and ladies, There is a new game coming up and about, and it's angry, very angry. So angry, it had to be kept underground, and now it's coming back up. *fanfares* World for the Overworld! Right, the gist seems to be very much Dungeon Keeperish, but based on what I have seen in...

    Poll: RPG King?

    I cannot say which one is the "RPG" King since each of those companies works on a slightly different style of RPG. I liked Fallout 3, BG 2, Neverwinter Nights (1 and 2). I confess I did not play Deux Ex too much, but the bits and pieces that I did play did leave a positive impression as well...

    Poll: I bet I could take down...

    Mario. He can only jump so high, and run so fast. Quoting the TF2 Heavy: "Some people think they can outsmart me (...) I have yet to meet one who can outsmart bullet."

    Has Steam ever screwed you over?

    Bought Saint's Row one week for some X ammount, then the next week it had it's price reduce 75%. I should had waited... Aside from that, the occasional server down blues, and rare problems with authentication.

    Homefront

    They had to substitue Russia with a different Antagonist eventualy, to invade the US. But, I presume that in the end it will not change anything. It will look like Red Dawn, but with small changes. Perhaps I missed something in the Story Trailer, but what happened to NATO? The Soviet Union in...

    Warhammer 40k MMO is a Go

    Yes, I could not help but notice the IG. I have personal doubts whether they would be a playable "race", since the average guardsman could perhaps face snotlings alone, at best, and win, which against anything bigger it might look very, very bleak. If they attempted to balance the IG, so that...

    The most useless weapon in a game?

    I don't know... I found the Mini Nuke "Cannons" from Fallout 3 to be usualy cost inefficient. I mean, you can use them under the condition of: 1) Being outside, 2) There being either many small enemies or one realy tough enemy, 3) Having a reason to waste a Mini Nuke on something like that. A...

    Zombie Game Idea

    Personaly what I would like a see is a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. style zombie game. If you ever played the mentioned game, or downloaded any of the mods that added ridiculous ammounts of creatures, and one which I recall that made the night time a true nightmare. To give an example, when I was walking...

    Left 4 Dead 2: Image of the Spitter

    Yeah, was thinking the same thing, what's with the high heels? A perfect corner flusher. But how much harder Survival mode will be now... *rubs his hands in anticipation*

    Zombie Survival MMO?

    I agree with BonsaiK. In a Post-Apocalyptic world the thing which would keep people alive is some brighter future in the distance.If that was not at all possible, the very point of survival would be meaningless as soon as the people realised it. Of course, people might have different...

    Best RTS?

    Company of Heroes is high on my list though it lacks a certain something. Dawn of War is about same, and I always loved IG artillery. Although I would say my fave RTS for a very long time was Original War. A game where the player had to think tactics, not "The Heaviest Tank wins". Each map...

    Escaping Griefers 101

    Muting, Vote kicking and ignoring. If these do not work only extreme methods remain.

    Rage Quitter

    I sometimes "Rage Quit" in L4D. I am normaly a patient person, but when occasionaly you land in a group of stereotypical "n00bs", I wait till the end of an area (ie Safehouse) and then leave. I did have a few frustrations back in World in Conflict online,but I always lasted.

    Assassin's Creed II: In-Game Upgrades

    I suppose that the type of upgrades that would be nice: More Ammo Capacity (there is a pistol, so perhaps being able to have a bigger bullet pouch would be nice, unless they plan to make an infinite supply) Perhaps "Damage Upgrades" to your weapons "One Use Items", like smoke bombs. And...
