And there's some of us that enjoy Arcanum and Planescape: Torment even more so than the original Fallout's. :chew: (If you think about it, Chris Avellone was a lead designer for Planescape whilst Tim Cain was for Arcanum, so taking the best of both worlds with Cain now with Obsidian could lead to a ...

In b4 Tom Clancy.

Yeah I found Rome to be the strongest as well. Empire wasn't half bad either. I've played all of them besides Shogun: The Next Generation. Didn't really like the demo so I never bothered.

TORtanic. Was anyone really expecting anything less? Playing a few classics, PS:T, Deus Ex, and some Dragon Knight Saga in there as well. Kinda reminds you of how the industry has been pretty stagnant with quality over the last decade or so. Considering playing one of the Total War games again but ...

Grab it off of GOG and be sure to grab the unofficial patch as well. Also, try the Extra Animations Pack (which I'm actually about to do myself for the first time).

Considering I've been comparing every game with choices that's come out since 1998 to the original Fallouts, extremely.

If I had t...

Fuck it, I'll bend over for Obsidian, they're the only ones who make half-way decent games these days. I came to this conclusion after playing Alpha Protocol not NV btw. They do need to start designing their own engines.

Blargh, I know your brain is too fagged up to realize that gaming is a business, but please try to stay positive and write something constructive once in a while.

Because succesful games have the widest appeal. And widest appeal means lowest common denominator. I think there's a little bit more to it than that, bud. you have consider the marketing value of the product and the initial "splash" of when you first pop the game in. Alpha Protocol is a f...

Why is it that good games get swept under the radar whilst shit games beacon deceit and false senses of wonders. (?))(!)

I just figured the '74' model was pretty rare in the states that's all bro

AK 74? In the States? Pretty fuckin' hardcore, bro, and risky!

I think I tried that once. The end result was that I got a new car. Go figure!
