  1. Development Info Malcolm McDowell plays the bad guy in Fallout 3

    I'm betting they'll use many of the same voice actors as Oblivion, and what a shame that will be. Way to recognizable.
  2. Game News Bioware releases Mass Effect copy protection info

    People without Internet are even worse than pirates. Much worse.
  3. Game News Bioware releases Mass Effect copy protection info

    Hate to say it, but I'm totally on board with this. I used to balk at copy protection, now I could care less. I'm sick of hearing about PC games sales being negatively effected by pirating, this will only help to negate that issue--Not totally fix it mind you, but it's something. And by the...
  4. Silent Hill 5

    @Futile Rhetoric - Totally agree with your take on SH4. The idea of being trapped in that hell-hole while the world went dutifully by added a great deal of tension. As with the series as a whole, your game space was the normal world gone bad--very very bad, slowly evolving into a more...
  5. Silent Hill 5

    Great topic-- First, what's with all this reverence for SH2? Perhaps it's because I played the series in reverse order, starting with 4, but I never really 'got' SH2 when I finally played it. Who knows, 3 and 4 were built from many of 2's foundations (scary nurses, the whole 'hospital theme...
  6. Game News The Witcher patched to 1.2

    ^ So true. Anyway, for me, load time improvements seems to be hit and miss. Trade Quarter still takes about 45 seconds for the first load, same as with 1.1a. Subsequent loads are a bit faster, but again, not noticeably so over 1.1a. Mind you I've got a RAID 0 boot disc config, so I find this...
  7. Game News The Witcher patched to 1.2

    Does this patch remove the Polish? Also, I made a claim a while back that this patch would increase nudity by 15%. Has this been brought to fruition? If not, I'm whipping out TEH UNINSTALLZ!
  8. The Witcher - 20% of the original English script cut

    Contrary to what I said 2 hours ago, I'm actually pissed that they didn't cut even more from the original script. Surly such cuts would have prevented this: http://nwn2.warcry.com/news/view/79113-NWN-2-Publisher-Atari-in-Deep-Financial-Trouble Similarly, google: Atari + Financial + Disaster...
  9. The Witcher - 20% of the original English script cut

    Fucking suits. Save money they say, and in doing so brow beat the translators into making absolutely ridiculous, unnecessary changes. Like they'd get in trouble if every last piece of dialog wasn't molestered in some way. What a sham, an abysmal travshamockery to be sure. Oh wait, let me...
  10. Review The Witcher reviewed right here, at the Codex

    Absolutely enjoyable. When you explore new areas you'll always find new stuff to do, and by the middle of the third act you'll find your quest journal has about a dozen unresolved tasks for you to do--all of them interesting. For me, lewt doesn't even factor into this game--it's better than...
  11. Review The Witcher reviewed right here, at the Codex

    I just wanna go ahead and second all of the above. Though I wonder if anyone here has ran through it a second time, Kaer Morhen that is, and had a different take the second time through? When I think back on that section, most of my frustration came from the overwhelming feeling I had, as if...
  12. The Witcher 1 Thread

    True, but I don't think most players Igni has the incinerate skill when you first encounter that plant (for me early in act II), so for me it was a hullava lot of running when one of those bastards spawned. I think it was act III before I finally beat one. As much as I hate to admit it, that...
  13. Development Info The Witcher 1.2 patch and demo dates

    The first part makes sense when you consider many animation cycles don't blend. For example, you can sheath your sword when running or walking, but not in between those two actions. That makes combat really clunky at times. I'm sure they'll also improve other blending, like switching...
  14. Development Info The Witcher 1.2 patch and demo dates

    I've heard the update will improve loading and save times, as well as include more nudity.
  15. Review New levels of stupidity discovered - a Witcher review

    From the simply amazing http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Roleplaying Whoever wrote that almost certainly has a pit in the basement where he lowers lotion to his mom.
