I've seen many free flash games which looked better and were probably more fun.

I don't like Telltale. I paid for all the walking dead episodes, but I can't play them. It won't continue past episode 2 with my choices! Tons of people have savegame corruption and they do nothing to fix it. I went through the forums and there's no fix for my problem. This is inexcusable. I can't even login to their forums! I log in, it works, but when I post, it says I can't, because I'm not logged in. Nothing works... And of course I never got an answer for my support ticket.

It's something that happens everytime? I know it's an annoying proposition but why not just uninstall the game, delete your saves, and start over?

Hells no. There's no way to skip anything in this game. It would take hours. Why would I want to waste my time like that? It's not like my mind was blown from the first two episodes... They were... OK.

Could it be the same issue as detailed here? Hopefully so, so that you can continue on with your choices.

I already seen all that. It's not my problem and attempting any of these fixes fails.

Played Skyrim last night for about 5 hours - only level 26 and it says I have only done 8 core missions in 60 hours. haahahahah I have a lot of fun clearing out stuff, selling, crafting, talking with peeps, exploring....hell, I dont' even need a main storyline! hahahah
Generally thats the way I play games like that too. Thats how ppl like us get hundreds of hours in those kinda games
Same here, to bad Bethesda doesn't take a lesson from Dead Island, Coop! Party2

Btw thanks for the tip about Unread Books, it will make a great addition. I also use a skill book mod which offers a choice whether to read now or save it.

Oh god, I must have played 16 hours of Skyrim this weekend. Love Dragonborn. I loved the first expansion too, so maybe I'm easy to please. I'm a huge ES fan and love the lore.

I didn't like Dead Island coop... With 3-4 people, the game is no longer survival horror, it's just pure action and you're constantly overpowered. It's kinda boring. Single player was awesome. A bit too much filler though.

I loved the 2D original. Best Zelda clone ever. I hated the 3D ones. It went the generic 3rd person route. A sequel would obviously be a 3D game, so meh.

RtCW was a great game overall.
The latest Wolfenstein had good concepts, but it was kinda boring.
I don't need more Wolfenstein, so if they're going to make one, they better make it great!

Well then fuck the console players. I'm not limited by this shit with my 16GB of memory. Hell, you wouldn't be limited at 4GB.

Great you've got 16GB. Fantastic.
You're in the minority - less than 8% of users. Over 60%, according to Steam Stats, are at 4GB or less. Can you say with 100% confidence that the issue Randy is discussing wouldn't crash their games?

Even with your 16GB, it sounds like "blow memory" isn't "take a whole lot of it" but "eat it up like a memory leak," meaning that you 16GB would last longer, perhaps only split seconds longer, before also getting destroyed.

I disagree with your assessment of blow memory. Consoles have a criminal amount of memory. It's very easy to go over it. 4GB Is lightyears ahead of the 512mb that's on current consoles.

Consoles are low on memory these days, true. They also have far less memory overhead.

Hell, FireFox right now is taking up 76% of my RAM (I maybe should close some tabs.) Consoles don't have issues like that.


I see, you mean, not only do consoles have low memory, they can't even have firefox running at the same time. :p Seriously, it in no way is a negative to have the ability to run more things at once on PC. Just close some apps to free memory. And if memory is full, there's swapping. You effectively have almost infinite memory.

It's a failure of design if when you reach the cap you have "all skills" and are just like every other character. You plan in advance a system that works. A good excuse may be lack of time/funding, but again, planning.

Console hardware limiting game content and gameplay, impossible! It's a conspiracy made by people who think that only graphics are important.

It's good to finally have a real dev comment on that.

There's your Freeman, sign him up JJ.


I would have gone with Charlie Sheen if he didn't go completely insane. The breaking bad guy looks fine though, but maybe a bit old.

Both will suck. 1. Because video game movies suck, and 2. It's JJ Abrams.

While this has a good chance of being true, there are several movies of games that are pretty good. Same with games of movies. There are also a lot of them that suck, but I wanna dispel the idea that they all do.

Let's expand upon this comment..

Name three 'faithful' and 'quality' game-related films. I can't think of two that I would actually want to re-visit more than the first viewing (meaning, low in quality).

Not saying you're not gonna be able to... I just can't think of more than one...

Silent Hill, Mortal Kombat, both Tomb Raider movies, Max Payne, Prince of Persia. You might not have liked some of them, but those were solid movies with solid actors and scripts. Some would add resident evil (not me), but I'd add Doom (loved it). I don't know if you'd count the recent Mortal Kombat web series, but these were awesome.

I liked the new Star Trek as a movie on it's own, but it's a Star Trek blasphemy. They totally destroyed the previous Star Trek legacy. It barely has links, other than character names. It's a dumbed down mindless explosion fest.

I've watched most star trek shows (never saw enterprise) and all the movies, but I wouldn't say I was a rabid fan. I don't even particularly remember the 2009 movie all that well other than it had time travel and young star trek characters (and that I enjoyed it.) What specifically did they destroy? I'm not trying to argue; I'm just curious.

Hmmm, watching a bunch of episodes of the next generation or voyager would be the best explanation. But basically, Star Trek 2009 is a popcorn action movie. The series, not popcorn action movie.

I really enjoy the Witcher worlds and really enjoy the books. If anyone hasn't grabbed them, they are now in English and are worth full retail....each short could be a great game. There is so much going on and so many possible story lines from the books. The game just scractches the surface...

I'll have to check out the books, I know for awhile they were not in English. Right now I'm going back & reading Enders Game again since the movie will be out this year...lol.
Like your signature!

I read the first book and it greatly improved my experience of the game. The game is true to the book. Really well written. I ordered the second one and I'll pick it up tomorrow.

The witcher games are strange. They're kinda boring for a while, but then you get really attached to your character and decisions and it's very rewarding when you complete the game. Can't wait for the third. Also, in the video, they say that the story will be more personal. I didn't like the fact that in Witcher 2, it was all about politics and countries and stuff... So great!

There are other issues like the click-fest combat and too much time spent travelling the same areas endlessly. Hopefully, there'll be fast travel since it's open world.

You're still off the deep end. The type of game is platformer. The controls are platformer controls. The audience is people who play platformers. The iPad has about as much influence on a platformer as it does on tic-tac-toe. Might as well stop using web browsers since they run on tablets, too.

A touch screen is far from being as precise and responsive as buttons. The audience is gamers, but also random people who own an ipad. On ipads, you want simple and fast games that you can play mostly on the go.

It's possible that it's not like that for this game, but that's my experience so far with this platform and that's what it looks like from the kickstarter information.

Good controls, the right platform and the right audience makes truly amazing and unique platformers like the Megaman Zeros on gba or the 2D castlevanias on nds for example.

A generic platformer made for the lowest common denominator, the ipad. No thanks.

I do think that having an editor is cool. I would have liked that when I was a kid.

I don't know that working on an iPad has any bearing on "lowest common denominator". A 2D platformer isn't exactly demanding on hardware.

I wasn't talking about hardware. I was talking about controls, target audience and the types of games that make sense on a tablet. Three things that I don't want.
