    bf1942 thief: the dark project far cry, oh yes braid ! castle crashers and of course, the original DOOM demo was like nothing else you could get over a modem from a bbs. i remember ordering the full version directly from id via an order form i mailed to them with a check! got the floppies in...

    Guitar Hero IV or Rock Band 2??

    i own both gh4 and rb1/2 (and just the rock band instruments) and rock band is far and away the better and more polished game. and this seals the deal for me. anywhere from 3 songs to a full album's worth of songs released per week keeps the game fresh and constantly in my 360's drive...

    Braid (XBLA)

    I still don't get this line of reasoning. Most non-RPGs nowadays run 8-10 hours. And cost $60. That's $6.00-7.50 per hour of playtime. Braid runs 4-6 hours. It costs $15. That's $2.50-3.75 per hour of playtime. About half. And that's a great deal for a game that is polished, engrossing...

    PC: The Witcher Enhanced Edition

    yep, before the demo came out (which was a good six to eight weeks after release), played for about an hour, and the performance/load times were gamebreaking for me, so uninstall and no purchase. the loading completely broke immersion. now i'm asking if this was improved upon in patches, or is...

    PC: The Witcher Enhanced Edition

    i'd be interested in knowing this as well...i have a decent rig, and the load times really put me off. as in: walk in to the hut, wait 10 seconds for loading, nope nothing i need here, walk back out, and another 10 seconds of loading, maybe this hut, 10 more seconds, etc. was this improved...

    whats up with the CoD4 servers?

    For some reason, my 360 isn't automatically signing me in to live anymore, and when I go to do it manaully, it takes a good 30-45 seconds. I STILL haven't been able to play a SWOS match online yet, just getting disconnects every attempt.

    PC Demo - 7pm EST Monday!

    I really think the delayed PC demo is more an effect of that they really, really, REALLY want this to be the greatest game ever made. And that includes a flawless PC demo release (which needs more testing and care than a generic 360 setup), avoidance of release-day patches, demo patches, etc...

    Who else is swearing off teh internets from tonight until they complete Bioshock?

    For me personally, all the reviews (and Ken Levine himself) indicate that there are massive plot issues that make the game as great as it is, and any spoilers would, um...spoil the damn near-perfect gaming experience: http://www.2kgames.com/cultofrapture/home.html ---- A MESSAGE FROM KEN...

    MASS EFFECT delayed til September...:-(

    they (bioware devs) make a big stink on the official forums that there is no official release date, and therefore won't comment on a "delay". http://masseffect.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=559883&forum=104...

    you do realize that game came out 15 years ago, and is arguably one of the most innovative games ever.
