| They're probably shifting from Conroy to Ben Affleck (or a BA clone) for future Batman games that will tie-in with the DCCU. |

I was initially disappointed that Lo Wang in the reboot had a lot less of the cheesy Asian stereotype I enjoyed in the original game. But the game itself was a lot of fun in the old-skool way and surprisingly layered with its use of skill trees and magic powers. The story in the cutscenes was pretty good too, although it seemed divorced from the tone of the gameplay.
I am rather apprehensive about the random level generator for the sequel though. I disliked Diablo for this particular reason and I'm not sure I'm going to like it here. For me hand-crafted unique levels beat randomized generic crap any day. |

Carmack's own views on software code ownership are not in line with the current choking legal standpoint on copyright, so it is possible that he took some of his own work at Zenimax without an iron-clad understanding of the possible legal ramifications of the fine print in his contract.
I don't know anything about legal matters but maybe Zenimax could request the court to allow them a look at the Rift VR code and see if it has similarities to any code Carmack did when he was an employee? |

It would have been nice if they could have used some of the cool elements from the original Prey like the Indian heritage or Portals or Spirit Walking.
Did I see the headless chickens from KISS: Psycho Circus in this trailer? |

| So I assume you recently got the Universal Classic Monsters collection on blu-ray (or some of the single movie releases). That's a really good set with nice transfers and some great bonus features for the signature movies. Boris Karloff was terrific in the Mummy. It's slow but very atmospheric with great shadowy cinematography. |

| For me the best game in the series was Second Encounter. The engine was upgraded to allow for lot of foliage and particle FX, the level design was a lot more than just flat sandy plains, the new weapons like the flame thrower and sniper rifle kicked major ass. You could cut down a frikking tree with your chainsaw!!! |

| I already have the free mod, but I certainly would like to show my appreciation for the team's hard work by shelling out for the pay version. |

^That's what I thought too, when I saw the price point.
On the other hand what you're getting in the Heroes deal is HoMM5 + 2 expansions + a fair number of digital goodies, so I am kind of tempted, given that I don't own the game at all (I'm a HoMM3 fan). |

Games like these are best played on the couch with your pc hooked up to the big screen, using a 360 wireless gamepad on a PC running 1080, or more if your rig can handle it. :-like-:
Yep, the "you play on consoles because you want to game on the couch" argument is really outdated. You can do that with your PC's, folks. |

It LOOKS like they were trying to do some sorta Military FPS game that was canceled and all the art assets were used in a SS type game. Hey weren't they actually doing that? I remember seeing some screenies years ago. |

They've never refused other forms of DRM, that's entirely up to the publisher. They have only refused to host games that have in-game DLC purchase options because:
a) That's money out of their pockets
b) Gamers would hold Steam accountable for DLC content when they re-install their games |

I really liked the environment and atmosphere they created in the original Unreal; but then they just forgot about it. Yeah. Even the people that lament the consolization of Epic are mostly fans of UT and UT2004, which for all their virtues are a wholly different game than the moody exploration + combat on an alien landscape that was 98's Unreal. |
