Was kind of looking forward to it just because it was world of darkness. Not that I've ever really liked anything from CCP, just wanted something done with the license. Hopefully someone can convince a game company to try to capitalize on the latest vampire craze by showing them some Toreador concept art.

Bloodlines type game = Shut up and take my money.

Fifteen bucks is way too much. I guess when it's on sale i'll pick it up. Was looking forward to it.

"You're only as good as your next game, and that's the way we've always felt"

Whew. Good thing it's your next game and not your last since DA2 is a giant steaming mountain of shit.

Portal 2 has easily been my biggest disappointment of the year. No DLC is going to fix that.

I don't think anything can beat Dragon Age II.

Confirmed.

My sources have also confirmed this.

I hope they got the voice actor that did the Morrowind male Dunmer back. Had to put together a mod for Oblivion so I didn't sound like a pansy whenever I was hit, etc.

As long as we get another appearance of Sir Roderick Ponce Von Fontlebottom the Magnificent Bastard, I'm all for it.

Really looking forward to the update for Witcher 2. My pick for game of the year so far with DXHR as runner up. Dark mode sounds like the perfect reason for another playthru. Think I'll side with Iorveth this time instead of Roche.

Hope this works out as well for Blizzard as Dragon Age 2 changes worked out for Bioware.

The only thing I'm looking forward to now for Diablo 3 is the obligatory dev interview where they tell us:
-We made major changes and stand by them
-Gamers just didn't get it, otherwise they would have bought our game
-We didn't learn anything from screwing up, we'll do it again

Ouch. Sadly, I have to agree. Quite a few companies that have done well in the past, game studio or not, seem to forget how they became successful and are shocked when they design something not for the benefit of their customers or audience and it fails. Hard. The Netflix fiasco as an example of how quickly it can go wrong.

Bioware, with DA2, loves saying how it's been financially successful. I can't help but laugh to myself whenever I see it repeated, knowing they lost half of the people who bought the first game. It reminds me of the middle school I drive by on the way to work every morning. They have a banner over the front door that reads "Adequate yearly progress three years in a row!" Talk about celebrating mediocrity. Sheesh.

To the subject at hand, I played D2 online with a few friends but most of the time solo. Every feature they take away from the game or hassle they add to it in the name of preventing multiplayer cheating, makes the game less and less appealing. I've gone from drooling and giddy waiting for news about the game to meh, maybe if it's bargain bin. *sigh*

Hey, kudos for being honest and sticking with their strengths. Are you paying attention, BioWare?

Well put.

I think they've started to lose sight of what their strengths are or were. It used to be solid story and a decently put together rpg system. Now they think it's some kind of cinematic storytelling or interactive movie experience.

I agree with most here about how well the game was put together. Really, really fun so far.

What really gets me excited however, is if they can do this for Deus Ex, what can they do with Thief 4?

We already knew this but I don't mind them announcing it. I'm sure they have something new to sell.

Had to replace my old Logitech MX518 a few months ago and picked up a Razer Deathadder. I dig it so far, it's comfortable. I wouldn't buy one of their mmo mice though, cripes those are expensive.

Nice to see it's getting some good reviews. I'm more excited than I should be. No way I'll be able to sleep with it unlocking at 3am.

You know what would be great? A new Dark Messiah style M&M game.

What a bunch of horse shit. Thankfully I'm not interested in much of what Ubi develops.

Not exactly what I was hoping for next in the Divinity series. Oh well, I'm sure I'll play it anyway.

I own and like the first and second MDK games, even though they're a bit different. The character models in this HD version just look out of place compared to the environments. *shrug*

I'm so excited for this. Had to stop playing the leak because it was so much fun and I didn't want to spoil any more of the game.

Going to try to play thru the series again to get ready.

Other than spending too much at GoG, the last game I bought was the new Alice. There just hasn't been much released lately. Hard to see how they could even hope to keep sales up.

I'd certainly augment myself, if given the option. Especially if it were nano-technology and not complete replacement.

This is the only life I've got, so if I can improve it, lengthen it, etc. I will. Let everyone else argue about it.

A problem I foresee would be hearing something like "The Ileg 3.0 is coming out this fall." Damn it! I just bought my Ileg 2.0 a couple months ago.

"In the end, it's better for everybody"

Fuck you, fuckball.
