EDIT: seems like max brooks is the only person that can do zombies right... lets hope this will be as good as the books (yeah i know...) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816711/

walking dead is 2 dimensional boring people arguing amount stuff that seems pretty irrelevant for 95% of each episode, and then a 60 second zombie encounter... yay.. NOT.

they are up to like 20 episodes or something and yet, the dumb idiots are still don't have any type of body armour, they don't have walkie talkies (thats what they should call the show actually, cause thats all that bloody HAPPENS!!) or any other kind of communication devices, they didn't even have an escape plan from their location.

i periodically watch an episode when nothing else is on, and its always dissapointing.

Awesome. Another person who doesn't get it. Look WD is a story of psychological horror between people themselves in a situation of a zombie apocalypse. It's not a flat out gore type of show where you get to see consistent blood and guts. If you want that, there probably thousands of "B" flick movies to satisfy your quench.

This show looks at it from the human side. Think about what would you do in this situation. Power struggles? Probably. Hysterical people? Yes. Would you find body armor? Probably not. Walkie Talkies? Maybe not if other survivors got to them first. Rick basically said in the last episode that they need a safe place to live in. That's few and far between. Look at it from the psychological point. Just because you think you get it doesn't mean everyone else does.

You really don't know how you or anyone else would react.

First off, certifications suck.

Second if people can earn them offline and everyone is going to be equal in the end why bother having them at all?

Yeah, sure its better, but compared to something like dragons dogma - where to combat itself is actually fun then skyrim fails big time.

skyrim also lacks a lot of the RPG features that made TES:DaggerFall so much fun. as it stands skyrim to me feels like a bland action game with a few tech trees.

Give it a couple of months, the toolset just got released. Combat revamps came for oblivion and morrowind to fix those problems too. And since the original skillsets and stats are still in the game, but hidden. They can be added back to make it more 'rpgish'.

Hell if it's that much of a problem, go grab the CK and mod it yourself and release it.

A bug infested game wins GOTY. I remember when only PC games suffered from this (actually I remember when even PC games had to work properly out of the box)and console games had to work. Now that console games can be patched too they are pushed out the door incomplete. Gamers sure are suckers for punishment, amazes me how this is considered normal AND acceptable now.

Bug infested? I can only remember a couple of serious bugs on release. It was by far better than oblivion in that regards. Ranting for the sake of ranting?

I can't understand the people complaining about the combat in Skyrim. You played the previous games right? Combat is vastly improved in Skyrim, not a difficult feat given how poor it was in Morrowind/Oblivion, but you actually have some sense of feedback now.

Trine did NOTHING for me. Thought it was very boring and had been done before. Glad I got it for just a few bucks last year.
