| The characters look cool in those screenshot but I don't know.. the environments look quite dull.. feels like being part of some basic arcade game, isn't a mmorpg supposed to be a role playing game? Well if you compare to the levels in Arkham Asylum they look even duller... |

| hmm I'll wait for the expansion pack. with 45 dollar one will probably get ten or so extra civilizations and much more. Am I the only one to think the game feels unfinished as it is? civ4 felt much more complete as far as the modern era was concerned.. television rock n'roll internet. and culture made more sense. you could steal land from neighbours just out of influence. I thought that was a pretty neat idea. Also the UN was much more interesting. To be honest, those dlcs sound like a rip off. |

Yeah... lightmapping is sooooo... next year!
I can't waiiiit! Wait! I actually can. Are we talking about an ID game?
Jee... I remember waiting for the quake games for months to years... And Doom3 and its "cutting edge" technology too. The graphics just made them look apart from the crowd. It's a tough game standing out in the 3d field these days.... Nvidia and ATI are bringing batches of new cards every year but the devs are not following. All the games that got released this year run pretty well on my 8800 GTX. Its like nobody's pushing graphics forward any more. Only Crytek playing this game these days.. Maybe it's a good thing... 3d is already nice looking enough so devs can concentrate on making good game. I can't wait to look at the true next generation of game graphics... |

| I think the game looks promising. At least a fantasy game with elements of hinduist and buddhist cultures for a change. I find the village screen very realistic, reminded me of my visit of angkor wat. I think the trees could use more polygons, they look low poly especially for a cry engine game... they are using it for the rendering quality but go for the Wow cartoony look.. interesting mix. |

yeah jesus only taught love and respect of others, living without superfluous thing to reach higher wisdom.. nothing wrong with that.. but to everybody's big surprise, the history of christiany turned out to be made of crusades, inquisitions,bishops stacking gold and treasures, witch hunting, persecution of the heretics, and a few popes who tells the African that wearing a condom is bad in a continent where a third of the women in the age of conceiving are already infected by Aids..
ok Jesus was the son of god and so was perfect.. on the other hand Muhammad is only a human prophet.. you can't really compare those two figures.. To think Jesus came on earth to teach humans how to worship God properly and they pulled out all this shit after that and he didn't feel the urge to come back again after that... I guess we must be all doomed by now! Merry Christmas everyone!
Now what videogames really teach you is that you shouldn't trust religions on face value... remember Neverwinter nights? same thing with Drakensang

I dunno if champions Online is as bad as you say but I'll be glad to try a superheroe game that gets rid of the old sacrosanct roles of tank dps controller stalker... those class do not fit the superhero genre and I found hard to create the heroes I wanted...tbh I don't know they would have had licensed superheroes fit those molds... as an example a superfast character... in COH it's just a means of transport in comics it's the base of all the powers... I am quite happy that they have new superhero games as I stopped playing COH after a few months even if I thought it was well done( too bad because some of the quests were very good and the gameplay wasn't bad ) but the class system killed it.. and the decors were getting repetitive after a while..

Thing is, I am European and I don't like dull graphics, does it mean I am screwed?
Agreed Umbragen, The witcher has been the best rpg in the last few years. I don't see what makes it an adventure game and not a rpg.... adventure games don't allow choices... is your definition of a rpg a game where you can decide to be a rogue a warrior a mage or a priest?

Indeed Laws do not define what is right or wrong...
They are a set of rules set by a community that allows people to live together. May they be local laws, national laws international laws etc. you may find that this traffic light on your way to work take too much time but you have to respect it. take away traffic lights and watch people crash into each other. now you wait for your turn because you know that the people coming might crash into you and because you might get caught by a cop and have a fine. You could also come at night notice there is no one on the road go through the red light, and no one will ever know you did. that is illegal, it didn't hurt anyone. and you justify your act by thinking "I am alone on the road there is clearly no-one, it would be philosophically absurd waiting here while my time on earth is so short" Some people will say you were wrong but if the cops see you you'll have a nice fine to pay
Now piracy, an act that supposedly make the industry lose millions, an act that as such causes wrong, cannot be considered as right. If you were the only guy on earth doing this they wouldn't notice.. but it's not the case.
the true question is to what extent does piracy make people lose millions. I have done it I must admit
I have downloaded the Bob dylan complete. I have listened to it from time to time but I must say I haven't had the time to listen to everything. Yet the first thing I did when I went to a record shop afterwards is buying one of his CDs
It was on the complete and I wish I had the time to listen to it or I wouldnt have bought it. Ok I know I was very wrong towards Bob Dylan but I know I'll probably buy his best records next time I find them. I saw him play live he was completely drunk and unable to sing his songs properly I thought he was being completely wrong to us, seeing how expensive the ticket was. Did I mention the record I bought was second hand? What does the industry have to say about second hand shops? They don't get any reward when some people buy their records or games from other people... yet I haven't heard of anyone sueing Ebay for that...
Oh by the way I buy a lot of records and games Bought crysis and Bioshock but I downloaded Stalker yet I never played I am too busy with WoW. That's the thing when you download stuff it's usually out of curiosity whereas most people buy the stuff they really care for. I know I wouldn't have bought thewhole Bob Dylan right away or the stalker . I know I could never afford to buy 3DSMax as most people I know
I am not saying it's right I am not saying it's not wrong
I think comparing that to going to someone's house and blowing his head off is a bit exaggerated Most people who use pirated software wouldn't buy it anyway. I think of Romania when I was there you could hardly see one shop selling software in the capital whereas there were plenty of vendors selling pirated stuff on the street. Why? people can't afford to buy the real ones the price of a videogame as sold in the US and Europe was the equivalent of half a month of salaree of on old school teacher. There were hundreds of netcafes where young people would meet to play videogames ( because most of them cant afford to have a PC at home ofcourse) So what can the industry do? Most pirates are in poor eastern europe countries Russia China. Should they release cheaper versions of their games there? Well everyone would go buy their games in those countries so they would have to do localized version That exists for big countries like Russia and China( who wants to play the Sims in Romanian or in Thai?) ( ok who wants to play the Sims? )
Anyway I know downloading this stuff and smoking cigarettes is bad Yet I think it's pretty harmless compared to the big companies who put people out of their work to cut on expenses or contaminate the agriculture in developing countries with GM food so that investors can make profits
Ok that's completely out of topic... Yet I can't help but think that with those hunger riots going on 90% of the world doesn't care

I loved playing Bioshock but Witcher was the game of the year imho. Very original story ( for once you are not fighting a villain who plans to destroy the world )quite unpredictable end and more twists and turns than in a season of 24, aging engine that was very satisfyingly used, the combat system was original and fun, dilemmas that affect the story..
plus a mature tone that is not just in the seducing of damsels and in the crude languages of taverns : complex political considerations, metaphysical discussions about fate and consequences of choices ( both mirrored in the main storyline ( dont wanna spoil too much here ) and in the gameplay ( dilemmas ) ok they could have done even better with a newer engine but the huge work on aesthetics quite made it up: the water in the marshes and in the sewers was more convincing than everything I have ever seen. OK I also wish the game wasn't so linear: you move up to a different area in each chapter and cant come back, except once. But the game repays you with an evolving story and seeing the actual consequences of your actions, the opposite of a mmorpg where you are totally free to go but the same quest can be done over and over.
I will add that I find crysis the most overrated game of the year, though I am still having fun with the editor...

apparently it's just one texture that got ripped in HL2 ( well, made of two pictures ) and a few lights from D3
It's not like they stole very recognizable assets from the game but it's illegal nonetheless. The way I see it, the game is so huge that they chose to use assets from other games during development and "forgot" to replace them. Or someone thought no-one would notice.. Not a big deal if they release a patch with alternative assets

this piece of news is appalling. I really thought Blizzard had more respect for players judging from the quality of their games. third party programmes are bad but if they cancel your account: wiping off hours and hours wasted staying in front of a computer they should be able to if not provide solid proofs at least provide clear explanation. This is so unfair! they could at least give a warning to the players even a warning shot temporarily banning an account for a week, that should be enough to get the message, or have they got too many players on their hands that they want to do with them? As much as I understand the need to eliminate cheaters I personally find that kind of attitude disrespectful towards the entirety of the WoW community. on top of that, is is stated anywhere that some hardware is not appropriate for the game?
