  1. FO3 DLC with Codex Seal of Approval

    The only DLC I really liked was Point Lookout. It was the most inspired and pretty much inarguably the best value for your money. Nothing was implemented well in Broken Steel, making it pretty crappy, in my opinion. You get a highly-forgettable new main quest, quick, shallow side quests that...
  2. Any really dark and foreboding (good) games?

    While it's not a PC game, Heavy Rain is some pretty gloomy shit. I haven't finished it yet, and I'm sure you can have a happy ending of sorts, but the ride getting there ain't sunny.
  3. So about them JRPGs...

    What a surprising turn of events! Fewer games have reeked so badly of shit in recent memory. I hope you rented it. I personally won't touch it. I'm playing Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne right now (via Gamefly), due to digging Strange Journey, and it's really fucking boring. If I don't like it...
  4. So about them JRPGs...

    Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey is worth your time.
  5. FF13 Midnight Release - How many of you tools...

    As far as Sqauresoft projects go, this one looks to be particularly bad. The developer has been releasing bloated, self-indulgent crap for years now. Today, a Squaresoft game = endless tutorials, filler, and horrible, unrealstic characters that no one can relate to. According to the...
  6. Frogwares' Sherlock Holmes games

    I just happened to play through an entire Sherlock Holmes marathon over the summer - starting with Silver Earring and working my way up to Ripper (played 'em a bit out of order, though). I don't believe the Frogwares games are as good as the Lost Files games, but some of them are still worth...
  7. Game News The World of The Collectors

    I quite enjoyed the art. I found myself stopping to look over the scenery on a few instances, and though the Collectors are derivative of most evil alien races, I quite liked them, anyway.
  8. Game News The Many Failures of Mass Effect 2

    You're fairly misinformed. While you pick up a universal ammo clip to replenish your rounds, there are different types of ammo, such as incendiary, cryo, armor-piercing rounds, warp, and shredder ammo. Enemies will either be without protection, shielded, armored, have a biotic barrier, or a...
  9. King's Quest 1,2 Enhanced Editions

    Agreed, sadly. I just discovered Conquest of the Longbow (Sierra adventure based on Robin Hood), and I easily put it up there with Sierra's best.
  10. Batman: Arkham Asylum

    From the demo, it really does seem like the game is going to be a very linear game filled with constant hand-holding and cut and paste corridors that lead you directly to the next cut scene and subsequent bossfight before the game ends at around the five hour mark, or whatever, but I have to...
  11. LionHeart

    Yeah, then why was it pooped on by the mainstream as well? It received more poor reviews than not. In fact, a lot of the positive reviews the game received were from sites who'd clearly not played the game past what obediah referred to as the game's "first half," making it out to be just...
  12. LionHeart

    Lionheart was crap, sir, in case you didn't already know that.
  13. Come and join us!!

    Super! Thanks for asking!
  14. Come and join us!!

    I'm a jew, and I'm pretty faggy, too. How does that make you feel?
  15. What brought you into the fold?

    I'm not really playing RPGs anymore, because there's obviously a lack of worthwhile ones out there. FF6 was also my first RPG, and I also like Chrono Trigger, and really love Earthbound, as far as the great SNES JRPGs go. As far as CRPGs go, I would browse Gamespot's list of reviewed PC...
