Gaming has changed, but if you keep telling that past games were always better than modern ones, you sound like my grandparents when they remember old movies, old actors, old tunes and so on.

Totally agreed. "They don't make games like they used to." "Modern games are dumbed down." and so on. We are getting old.

Let's see if this the dawn of new old-school games. BG3 and Wasteland 2 are forbidden dreams, and I'm really excited about the upcoming XCOM, hoping they are doing it right.

Awesome cartoon. The Dragon's Lair of adventure games.

Really awesome. The guys at GOG are raising the bar.

Talking about 'animated adventures', I remember LucasArts' Full Throttle, the first adventure game to make me think that Lucas was going downhill.

The simple way: instead of protecting digital rights (the armour thing), DRM makes games more difficult to play (the awkward movements of the knight) A client is DRM if you need it to play.

"Visual metaphor: the representation of a person, place, thing, or idea by way of a visual image that suggests a particular association or point of similarity." BTW, GOG is awesome. New games, DRM free, could be a real breakthrough. Will publishers agree?

So, all that rage because fans don't like the ending of a story? Wow, we should wipe out half of the books and movies out there. Much ado about nothing.

Yet another FPS. Not impressed.

The simulation model looks very complex. Fascinating.

Exactly. The worst thing you can do, when you have to handle users feedback, is giving people what they are asking for without trying to interpret their real needs. I have to do this every day at work.

Next big thing since the new XCom announcement. Enhanced and remade classic games not turned into FPSs are fresh air. EDIT: the world is in serious need of a KOTOR remake.

In my opinion, dd games have a very short session life span. You play 20 minutes and you are done. But they are addictive, and in a couple of hours you feel the need to do some more damage. A good mix between race and destruction should bring new life.

Brilliant. The guys should write a manual about feedback evaluation.

HL3 will be a tricky game to craft. HL2 was innovative in bringing mood, atmosphere and storytelling in the shooter genre. Now, first person shooters are everywhere and a lot of them have improved the HL2 model. To raise the bar once again, HL3 will have to be a much different game than HL2.

A new game by Tim Schafer? Sweet. Thank you.

Me too. I played Fallout 3 on PC without any matter related to GFWL. I never logged into GFWL, because it doesn't work with my modem.

Awesome. It's always nice to see 2d games.

I appreciate the effort, but in my humble opinion it's too "noisy". A lot of buttons, controls, pictures, windows and menus. I like more streamlined forums, but it's nice to be here again. Bye!
