Yeah, I'm getting that one, too. The worst part is that I can't close the app unless I go into the Task Manager.

"I'm very careful in my posts, so I google for Black Mesa requirements.
I simply failed to notice the date.
So please stop correcting my bullshit

Do I need Half Life 1 or 2 to play Black Mesa?"

You do NOT need either game to play Black Mesa.

What I like about these wild-west/cowboy games is that these themes haven't been beaten to death like so many other formats--which I love, btw--have been. There is a lot of fresh originality potential here! But if this game looks and plays just like it did 14 years ago, I agree that no one should buy it! I would have enjoyed seeing the RDR2 engine used exclusively to recreate the original game. Haven't decided on this one, yet!
For me, it's not about the game looking and playing like it did 14 years ago. I think its fine as it is. The issue for me is that nobody should be paying nearly full price for a game that most people have already played. Make it 10 bucks, or as I said earlier, 15. Better yet, bundle it with Red Dead 2. At least THAT way you can somewhat justify the 50-dollar price tag.

If it was 15 bucks, I'd absolutely go for it. 50? Nobody should have to pay that much for a 14-year old game.

For me, it was the moment when the Working Joes became the main problem. That part of the game just took me out of it. Still, it's an awesome, and I would still like to see a sequel to it. With Alien: Romulus out in theaters now and Alien: Earth coming next year, I'm secretly hoping for news of Alien: Isolation 2. I'm pretty sure I'll eventually be disappointed, but hope springs eternal.

When it comes to movies, at least for me, it's physical media or bust. From a visual standpoint, you really can't beat Blu-Ray/4k, especially if you have the proper display. The infrastructure simply isn't there yet for continuous 4K streaming. On top of that, when your internet goes out, you might lose access to all that stuff you bought digitally(provided that you didn't download it). For me, the benefits of physical media outweigh the negative. That said, I'm not entirely against streaming, either. It IS convenient, and you don't have to make room on a shelf for it. However, the issues with streaming are not insignificant, especially given the amount of services out there. The prices for these services are increasing, while the quality of the streaming is either decreasing or it's remaining the same. When it comes to games and music, though, digital IS my preferred way of getting them.

I haven't played Spec Ops: The Line in years, yet it still haunts me. Anybody who's played the game all the through will know exactly why. This is weird, but as was mentioned, it's most likely due to a licensing issue, especially in terms of music.

It’s one of the few big video game stories with great commentary on the industry itself and that ending…really stays with you. The gameplay itself hasn’t aged well but it doesn’t overstay its welcome.
It wasn't the ending that bothered me. It was the section where you had to use white phosphorous. The aftermath of that shook me to my core.

Definitely not the game you want to play if you're just looking for some light-hearted, thoughtless shootbang action.
Yeah...I only played through it once, and that was all I needed. Decent gameplay, but the story was thematically brutal.

I certainly understand why people didn't like the new MK movie. It ain't great. That's for damn sure. But I found that there was enough stuff in there worthwhile to enjoy the movie. First of all: Scorpion and Sub-Zero, played by Hiroyuki Sanada and Joe Taslim respectively. Pitch perfect casting. The opening to the movie was phenomenal and the final fight of the movie was just as good. Kano was awesome and I loved the gore. Everything else though? Give or take. The fight choreography was fine, but the editing and camera-work were horrendous. I hope Simon McQuoid learned how NOT to shoot a fight scene. They also need to bring back the main Mortal Kombat theme proper for the next movie, because the version that was used in the reboot was TERRIBLE. So, yeah, the Mortal Kombat reboot is a mixed bag, even for me, but I enjoyed it.

looks reminiscent of tomb raider.
A game based on a legendary IP looks reminiscent of a game that was clearly inspired by said legendary IP. Irony: It's everywhere! In all seriousness, though, I think the game looks like a lot of fun. I loved the new Tomb Raider games and Uncharted, so this is definitely up my alley. I just wish it wasn't in first-person. Doesn't seem right to me. But who knows, it might work.

Good to know and this is usually the case. A couple examples come to mind -

T2 Ultimate - the idiots added a bunch of dumb scenes that ruined the pacing, had Arnold smiling like a clown, etc. Terrible version. Theatrical is perfect which is the version I kept.

TLOTR Extended - added a bunch of silly scenes that weren't even in the books, ridiculous character breaking moments such as Gandalf screaming like a little kid when he saw the Witch King and had his staff broken (!?).

Anyway yea, the original theatrical cuts are often the best.
I wouldn't say there's no value in extended versions of movies. A lot of it tends to be more character development as was the case with Terminator and Aliens. If you want an extended version that is superior to the original theatrical release: Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven. The extended version is vastly superior, with fleshed out character motivations and a subplot that's actually vital to the story, and it flows better. So, I do like extended versions, but I do prefer the theatrical release.

As someone who isn't particularly familiar with D&D, and is not really a fan of turn-based RPGs, Baldur's Gate III is phenomenal. It's absolutely worth the 60 bucks I paid for it.

You know what this is? This is Marvel trying to drum up interest for the movie that's been pushed back and back and back with different writers and directors. It hasn't even gone into pre-production yet, but here they are announcing a game for a movie that we have no idea will be successful or not. I love Blade as much as the next guy, but I would've waited to announce the game until the movie had started filming at the earliest. The question I have is: Is Mahershala Ali voicing the character, or will it be somebody else? I want the movie to be good, because it could be the movie that gets me back on the MCU train, but I also want this game to be good, because the concept could be amazing if handled properly.

I remember the developer, Teyon, got a lot of flack for how the Rambo game turned out, and deservedly so. Terminator: Resistance was surprisingly decent, and the demo for Robocop was a lot of fun. I'll be nabbing Rogue City once I get paid. I'm glad the Teyon has improved on their games. So, I'm curious as to what they'll be working on next.

And before someone comes in and says it's a multiplayer game, no it's not. It's an action RPG that has multiplayer. Diablo 2, Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, etc all had robust multiplayer without being online only.
You just don't understand. It's multiplayer, see? And you have to load the inventory of all 8 people you see walking around you when you're in town, see? And THAT is why we have to charge you for additional inventory space, to support the massive bandwidth to transmit 25k of data, see?
Thank you, Mr. Capone.

I believe you are actually referring to Tomb Raider: Anniversary.

If so it was more of a reboot than a straight-up remaster if I remember correctly.
It was a full-on remake using the same visual style and gameplay mechanics of Legend. Legend was released first, then Anniversary, then Underworld.
