I think I'll wait till this game is $20 to pick it up (if ever)... the combat was simply dreadful. Since it's a shooter game, that's one of the most important aspects to get right IMO. Most levels are tight corridors and rooms, so there is very little room to maneuver. Though that really doesn't matter too much because the AI is as dumb as Riley - er - I mean as dumb as a bag of hammers.

The levels themselves were looking good being all organic, and I liked the "icy" mode of the leech gun since it made a nice effect when enemies were frozen. But the feeling of being on rails, as well as the poorly done combat, really brought the demo down for me.

Maybe the full game will be better. I dunno. I'll pass until I see some reviews. I have yet to purchase Far Cry and FEAR...

I remember playing a sim game like this years ago.. can't remember what it was called.

"Life and Death"... man that was released a looooong time ago, in the bad old days of EGA graphics. From what I remember, if you didn't give your patients anaesthesia, they started screaming when you cut into them (if you had a SB card). Good times.

Kids, I think it's obvious what happened here. One of you inconsiderate bastards pissed in Enahs' Cheerios. Or corn flakes. Or whatever the fuck Mr. Health Nut eats.

That would be strawberries I would think. I don't really know, because I'm a dumb jerk still using a CRT. Let's just hope we see Enahs online so we can frag his ass repeatedly and mercilessly.

You know, I don't play FreeCell anymore because it tracks my statistics. Who knows what nefarious things Microsoft can do with my win/loss record? For example, with my 1 win and 999 losses Microsoft could get me fired from my job because it looks like I'm incompetent. They could post the information online and cause me great emotional stress from all the people mocking me. I think Riley has done me a great service. Fight The Man! Power To The People!

Good to hear he is ok. You are all wussies, the picture is not gross at all. Most of your faces probably are more horrible looking then that picture *rimshot*. Sorry, could not resist!

Why make another game, and then have your WoW players go play that, rather than sink more money into WoW?

Because they could make even more money from people like me who don't give a shit about WoW...? I'm sure Blizzard could wipe their asses on a CD and call it Starcraft 2 and still make a billion dollars.

The beta is predominately to learn about large scale issues, i.e. when we have 10 000’s of people playing at the same time, eliminating some of the problems we have encountered after launch previously in the franchise.

Battlefield 1942 came out with quite a few bugs. Okay, I can understand that... it's a new game with a new engine and there are bound to be problems.

Battlefield Vietnam came out, also with launch issues. You would figure they would have learned some lessons from the previous lauch but okay, fine, whatever.

Battlefield 2 comes out... and there are STILL launch issues. Still some serious bugs months after release. Some patches must be rolled back because they break more shit than they fix. I would think that by the third time around, DICE would know their engine - right? Is the game really all that fun that gamers would want to keep bankrolling this kind of incompetence?

If Battlefield 2142 comes out a buggy mess, who is to blame? EA? DICE? Or the gamers who put up with this shit? Maybe I'm just getting cranky in my old age. Now get off my damn lawn!

Does Enahs's game use Starforce? Do I need to get it off Steam? Does it need a patch to make it fun? Are the graphics on par with Doom 3? Is there a demo? It's not another WWII game is it? Was it ported from a console?

I say we boycott Enahs and create an online petition!

(Oh come on, this is Blue's News after all!)

Might I say thank you again to Camaro for is ignore script!

No problem!

I have a new version up which makes it easier to add punks by using the "Tools -> User Script Commands" menu. The punks are saved as script variables in the Firefox config instead of in the script. The only way to unban someone is to go into the config editor (type "about: config" in the address bar) and filter on "greasemonkey" - you will then see the script variables. I suppose I could add an "ignore" button to the other buttons below a post... but I'm lazy.

Any word on whether or not there will be a demo? I never managed to play the original... but I'd like to give this one a try. Sounds interesting.

The next OS may cure cancer but it will also cause insanity.

They could announce that their next OS actually and demonstratably cures cancer, and you'd whine.

• It would take Microsoft at least three tries to get it right
• The cure would be administered by an annoying talking paper clip -- "It looks like you have a malignant tumor. What would you like to do?"
• Suddenly your weight would shoot up by 100 pounds (though your teeth will become whiter and your bald spot will disappear thanks to those extra "features").

Microsoft improves their patching services, you guys whine.

So I can pay MS $49.95 a year for anti-virus, antispyware, and a firewall. If they were so SERIOUS about security then they'd fix their broken operating system and make all of that shit unnecessary. But hey, my browser only lets me surf porno sites, and the machine sends out millions of viagra spam letters every minute, but don't those window borders look pretty?

Don't think of it as whining. Think of it as non-constructive criticism.
