I pledge allegiance to the developers of Obsidian Entertainment, and to the quality for which it stands, their games under the Sun, inimitable, with awesome and goodness for all.
Short of Obsidian getting the contract for...
According to a recent news update on the Official S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Facebook page, GSC Gameworld's crew is very happy. Why?
Because they will resume work on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 after the holidays.

Anyone play this game? I've installed it recently and it's proving to be quite fun so far, particularly because it's possible to earn currency to purchase elements.
For those who aren't familiar with the game: it's a fast paced, very fun multiplayer game, where players are pitted against each...
If anyone recalls, Afterfall is a Polish action game set in an alternate, post-nuclear Europe. It's demo wnet live yesterday and today NMA brings you GIFTS in the form of previews and Screencaps:

CVG has an interesting article tackling the issue of review score bloat and the fallacy of using MEtacritic score as an argument (which, sadly, has surfaced around here):

I've been meaning to ask, how many people on HL2.net love cut content and cancelled games, enough to devote their entire evenings to scouring the net and game files for clues? Or even grab unfinished betas and design docs to experience them first hand?
The reason I'm asking is because I'm...
Recently, after reading an old preview of Mortyr: 2093 -1944 in Secret Service, an ancient and now defunct Polish games magazine, I decided to unearth this lil' game and play it, expecting a rough, unpolished horror that I'd have to suffer through.
The premise? Using a time machine, the...
I don't believe I did and I kind of feel bad about not telling you guys. So, erm, since August 20th I'm a happily married husband.
And my wife is awesome.
Like, really awesome.
So, hl2.net, what are some awesome series that you've never watched when they were popular, but you're currently watching religiously?
For me it's the X-Files, I've currently burned through the first season in four days and I love it. The characters, stories, writing and atomsphere are...
Furries are so (a)cutely stupid sometimes...
Context: I called the girl who sent this PM an idiot in an elegant way in a thread about chemical castration of pedophiles, since her only contribution was demanding that they be killed in the most inhuman way possible.
I like Beccaria. I...

I've been recently rewatching the two seasons of Shadow Raiders, a CGI series I hold childhood memories of. Well, as it is with childhood memories, they tend to be a bit rose-tinted, but in this case, not so much. Sure, the first episodes' CGI quality can be bad...
As the thread title says, which games do you wish were more succesful?
I consider Silent Storm to be one of them. It's an amazingly well-done tactical game, except, well, it wasn't a big success, sadly. I don't really understand why - it has some great writing and voice acting (done by...
So, the new trailer's been released for C&C4, featuring FMVs, Kane and some story bits:

One thing caught my eye in particular:
I hate McNeil.
So, I've been browsing through my collection lately and decided to replay a few games. Funnily enough, they're more playable than many modern games.
So, which games do you replay oft enough, not out of nostalgia, but pure enjoyment?
Mine so far:
Syndicate
Back when Molyneux was still...
Anyone play it? For the record, it's the first non-JoWood Piranha Bytes game, proof that their former publisher is to blame for Gothic 3's state at release. It's built on the same Genome engine and is, well, stunning.
Risen is a welcome change to the usual "modern" RPGs (Mass Effect, Fallout...
