Back To The Future Part 2. Try to get past the second stage of that game if you dare. I used to play the fuck out of that game when I was a kid. Never even realized it was made by the worst video game company in the universe LJN until recently.
The EVE online stuff is pretty funny. I hope that isn't real money, but I bet it was considering I played the beta for Dust 514 (which apparently is the on planet wars of EVE) and saw that pretty much any advanced weapon or stat costed real money to purchase w/o hours of grinding and you lose everything on you if you die once. Not really sure how they connect besides that since EVE is in space, but not really my cup of tea since I just play FPS to f around. I may hop on a couple of times to get demolished w/ my lack of equipment.
Nah, it wasn't real money. Everything in EVE is priced on their in game currency and enough of it can buy a month worth of playing time (normally $10 if I'm not mistaken though it could be $15) so when they talk about losing real money in that game, they're talking about the cargo of a ship that holds the in game currency that could be transferred into monthly playing time.Quote:

Simply casting a woman in place of one of the three men would have been not only pretty badass, but also a step in the right direction for femininity in games, in which the industry so desperately needs right now.
:fp: She could have said three women and it might have been passable but what Rockstar is doing with three characters is far more badass than just tossing in a female protagonist.
:fp: ... "unique" article. I would be curious how many females buy/play the GTA series. It's definitely made for male consumption. I have no problem with female characters but feminism in the videogame world now??? Oh brother!Quote:

There aren't many games that don't include one of those horrible tropes toward woman though... I'd find it VERY difficult to enjoy most video games if I was a woman because the lack of inclusion isn't high. It's the reason so many women play MMOs because they offer them the ability to play the heroine instead of always the hero.Quote:

Plenty of horrible tropes against men in games. Why do they always have such great abs and a rugged good looks, how can we live up to the standards. :glare:Quote:

It's just a no win situation so you will continue to see FEW games with lead female characters unless/until those two dynamics change.
And when they make her dog ugly, you get the same people complaining about making the female lead some ugly as shit chick that no one will like.Quote:

Falskaar adds almost 25 hours of content, a land mass a third the size of the original game, new characters, new voices, and dozens of quests.
The mod is fully voice-acted by 29 voice actors playing 54 characters (Velicky held auditions), and the quality is much higher than most community-made content.
LOL you would post this after Skryim went off sale. I could never make up my mind to buy it or not.
If I played on PC I would still have it because of all the great mods. That said I still put a good 300 hours with the game and all the DLC. It is a good game despite it's flaws. Playing stealthy with a knife and bow was the most enjoyable for me.Quote:

I am sure Xbox will at least have the balls to release their hardware numbers. Generally comes later in the day. Will see if the others do. Impressive to see NBA 2k13 at 5, even though it was a weak month. Playoffs must have brought a bunch of people to snag it up, plus I think there was a price drop.
