| I think gamespot's reviews says there is indeed a story but it is kinda generic in their opinion. |

Entirely agree with Slashman.
Other than the very disappointing melee combat (there no sense of contact -- its like you are waving a sword around in the air), the game was crazy ambitious and and bound to fail. But it didnt.
I still want an RPG like BG2 but that's never going to happen in the 21st century I guess. |

It is the blockbuster releases that have the most annoying DRM/DLC/on line pass issues.
I am waiting on Mass Effect 3 because I am convinced the release of that game will be some form of DRM disaster for gamers, regardless of platform.

Ubi's explanation for this is that the recent downtime was bad enough that they felt compelled to move their servers over to somewhere else/something else. Not sure I buy it, but it is plausible I suppose.
Basically this downtime is annoying only for those who didnt crack their Ubi games. And that's a dreary thought. |

texture pack works great with my nvidia card. You can imediately tell some textures are much cleaner and more detailed, especially clothing.
p.s. Like a few others here, I run the game via HDMI to my HDTV and it looks great and the couch is comfy. You also gain the benefit of running at native 720P, which puts less work on your PC's GPU if you have a 24 inch LCD display like I do that runs native at 1920x1200. The wireless 360 controller works with this _particular_ game well --- though I wouldnt say I would want to use a console controller for all games. |

The game industry would love to get rid of physical media completely so that a lot of distinctions folks here are making regarding "disks" would not mean anything any more.

CJ the UBI post states that some games including HOMMVI are "unplayable" (Ubi's wording) during the transition, including single player.
unless you see more info on that link than I do?

I am one the fools who bought their HOMM VI game (V is actually better then VI to give folks some idea what's up with VI).
Ultra annoyed that the single player goes down when their servers go down. |

I tried to bring this topic up here in the past but it is usually shot down with a comment like "Steam is too big to fail and/or get sold off to another company, so dont worry about it."
Backups via Steam? That might work with some steam games but I wouldnt bet on that as a solution across the board.
Time will tell, but the underlying issue is that we purchased the "right" to play them via Steam. And that's all we purchased.

I suspect the money is running out at ID on top of other things.
I recall vividly the arrival of Doom 3 and my genuine shock at how terrible that was (as both a game and an engine).

Verno that is good to know but I have to express a little skepticism that that will actually pan out as you say. We'll know in 3 months time I suppose!

| warpcrow I agree but at the same time, the working condition in the foxcon factories are unusually slave-like and it happens there on a huge scale. I am surprised Apple doesnt get more heat from consumers about the issue.... |
