  1. JA3 Rumors - Fact or Fiction?

    Your post had disappeared when I went back yesterday, so obviously I didn't see anything. What's your take on things at the moment? From what I can deduce, MistLand have lost it - and yeah, I'm as glad as everyone else about that - but if it hasn't gone to .dat, who's doing it? If you know...
  2. JA3 Rumors - Fact or Fiction?

    I read that as basically admitting the rumours are true. Otherwise why not just flat-out deny them? As I said on Bearpit, it's time for the bubbly!!! :)
  3. FIFE - a cross platform isometric game engine

    I'm embarrassed to say I can't do ISO any more, I need camera angles and shit. I don't need glow or HDR or any of that crap, but really I'd be looking for something just a little more than this. Fuck it, it's 2006, we've done the nineties already. I'm hanging out for Fallout 3 and JA3, and...
  4. Tycoon games?

    Ten years on from TTD, I haven't read anything worth celebrating. I don't have it, but from what I've read you can't lay track with a sweep of the mouse any more, and the pathfinding AI is still fucked. The graphics haven't improved a lot either. I was really pissed when I saw it, being a...
  5. 'Gray Gamers'

    I have teeth. They were bloody expensive too, I might add! :D
  6. 'Gray Gamers'

    I have to bite you for this. I'm over 50, no sign of dementia yet, although I'll admit I have a few grey hairs. I'd say the market that article talks about is closer to the 70 - 80 age group, when the rot really starts to set in. At 55, all I'm really missing is my brain. What was all this...
  7. Ultima 5: Lazarus poll

    Arrgh, you bastard - I've been busting to get back into it, but it's a 'mood' kinda thing. As much as I love games that challenge me and make me think, sometimes I just want to blob in front of something mindless. Train sims and the like, watch them all go around in the sandbox while I drink...
  8. Gothic 3 will not ENTIRELY be scaling.

    The quote from Rpgdot: "In response to the Gothic 3 E3 Preview, it appears there's been a new development: Gothic 3's bestial line-up will not scale like Oblivion's. Creature balance will remain largely the same as it was in the 2 predecessors aside from one crucial aspect. Posted by Aspyr...
  9. Paradox Entertainment to publish Mount & Blade

    Ah fuck. My bad. Bugger.
  10. Paradox Entertainment to publish Mount & Blade

    It was theorised about before Armagan responded. Not much to box yet though, of course. And yeah, advertising and hosting I think. Sounds like a good deal to me! I'd bet it is. But I figured the advertising deal was a tad more interesting than 'another day in the office' :)
  11. Paradox Entertainment to publish Mount & Blade

    http://forums.taleworlds.net/index.php/topic,12446.0.html Mount & Blade in a box? Not yet, but Armagan has confirmed this distribution deal:
  12. Company News Bethesda: Games must evolve & grow!

    Ahh - caught it on TV a few years back, but I didn't recognise the title. Yeah, it was good viewing. For some reason I thought 'Heavenly Creatures' was a relatively new release, never connected it with the story. Thanks for that :) Now I'll hand us all back to the bitching and whining about...
  13. Review New Zealand loves Oblivion

    Hey, NZ is a young country, OK? We haven't evolved braincells yet - the best we've done is Shagnak and a lot of sheep so far. Just don't expect too much, as they say on the Oblibbion Forums. Where the fuck did Stalin go anyway?
  14. Company News Bethesda: Games must evolve & grow!

    I believe that's Peter Jackson you're talking about there :) Dunno about Heaveny Creatures, but I think the first three were his - just to derail the thread, of course :) But anyway, I read the whole thread on ESF, and Pete came way too close to flaming. I hope he does it again and gets...
  15. RPG Codex and Quarter To Three

    Either you have an 'open mind' or you're an 'opinionated fuck'. Well, it just so happens that Codexers are opionated fucks. Unless you actually bother to read threads and take the time to understand what people are saying. I really think some people don't know shit from clay, just because...
