I'm curious how they're going to handle the "Poor Newton" segment of the game, where you fight on what amounts to a wall.
The original Serious Engine had support for multi-directional gravity, where it was using sparingly. In TFE there was a secret room that was a spherical dome which you would walk inside of and had all kinds of goodies. Apparently in SDHD:TFE you can't walk on the dome this time, so it would appear that SE3 doesn't support multi-directional gravity.
Since the Poor Newton segment is part of the main game for TSE, there's no getting around it this time. They would either need to implement multi-directional gravity, or redo that part of the map. |

who was it here that was saying it is cheap to buy games from gogamer.com? i guess that person wont be playing MW2 import edition if he tries to play it in the states Eh? GoGamer doesn't import anything from the developing world as far as I know. They just choose to operate on razor-thin margins.
Anyhow, as for the matter at hand, people will bitch about it but ultimately the law will back up the publisher. Region controls are an accepted form of price discrimination, to allow publishers to sell media at below-market costs in developing nations in order to combat piracy and offer media at a price the local population can afford.
Ultimately if you don't like expensive games, you're going to have to move to the developing world. As far as the music, movie, and gaming industries are concerned, if you live in the 1st world you're rich enough to pay full price. |

Please explain why it's not worth $20? Or $18 for pre-order. Well the original game was only $20 in the first place. This isn't even a remake, it's just the same thing with some new art assets. |

| Is the battle where you rip down a Star Destroyer as bad as I've heard? Someone mentioned that they literally copied it from the console version; in place of pushing a thumbstick down, you have to repeatedly (and repeatedly) move your mouse down. |

| Also keep in mind that it looks as slow and boring as all hell. And this comes from a Tribes player, which means I love any kind of game with flying. |

| Bear in mind that none of the SM3 cards approach the overall power of those SM4 cards. My guess is that in spite of being an SM3 title, something like a Radeon X1900XTX would be too slow to play the game. |

I really don't get how this improves cheating. Cheaters are using client-side hacks; it doesn't matter who's hosting, they can still cheat.

I can't believe so many people here dislike Stargate. I thought SG-1 and SGA were both very entertaining. And the RDA snark was icing on the cake.
Watch Window of Opportunity and try to tell me that it wasn't a good episode.
Note that I'm not including SGU in this. SGU is terrible. BSG Season 3 terrible.
As for the game, it's been a sham for over a year now. It's not going to be completed, and hopefully at some point the dopes at the top who have been trying to run a ponzi scheme get what they deserve. |

| Asgard Heroes is a space game? Apparently they're channeling Stargate's Asgard, in which case I call dibs on flying the Jack O'Neill. |

On the one hand, I feel bad for Epic. UT3 for $8 is really, really low.
On the other hand, I still can't bring myself to buy it for $8. It's a MP-only game with no compelling reason to play it when I already have UT2004. At least with a SP game, $5 buys a few solid hours of entertainment. |

Whatever happened to the days where your reward for preordering a title was simply GETTING THE DAMN GAME?
I could care less when companies want to give you some little trinket or figurine or whatever. Don't restrict my in-game content simply because I want to wait and read some reviews before purchasing your game.
Exactly. Only giving the whole game to people who pre-order tells me that the developer/publisher has no faith in the game, and that they believe the game won't sell well once it has been reviewed.
It's very similar to not allowing a movie to be reviewed before it opens, which is the universal symbol for "we know it's going to review poorly".

I don't like the sound of items being based on where you bought the game, unless the exclusivity is only temporary. Ditto. Otherwise what does it say about a game when they punish you by not delivering the full game if you don't pre-order?
