  1. Gone Home from The Fullbright Company

    Interesting stuff. Really looking forward to it. For a moment I had the impression there were no challenges at all; no puzzles, no structure, no progress, just a house you walk around and read letters in. I thought that sounded... interesting, but in this interview he implies you will be able to complete the game. So obviously there's some sort of challenge. Maybe there's a keypad, and you have to figure out the code based on a million facts.
  2. RockStar Social Club - Idle Thumbs

    I haven't bought the game, but if this is a thing I'm buying it.
  3. The Walking Dead

    Sometimes I wish there was a "No, no, that's not what I meant!" do-over line in dialogue-based games when NPCs react in weird, unexpected ways to the line you pick. I often find myself wondering, if I select this line, will I get to clarify? Not so much in these games as others, though. I remember experiencing it a lot in the Fallout games, wondering if a dialogue line wouldl let me discuss further, or if combat.
  4. Starbreeze's Syndicate

    Just installed this and started a co-op game, and the mouse lag is horrible. Even with graphics quality set to ass and vsync off, there's an annoying delay before mouse movement registers. PC gaming.
  5. The Secret World

    Day one: Bought the basic el cheapo pack and started the download.
  6. The Secret World

    TOO LATE!

  10. The Secret World

    I'm this close to buying it. Why shouldn't I?
  11. Resident Evil 6: President Evil

    Isn't the whole point that it's supposed to be every RE game ever made, by being three separate, tonally different games? There's the horror one, the action one, and the, uh, third one. What's that, comedy?
  12. Bishvabis got the feminism thread back on track.
  13. Life

    I don't know, I'm from Norway. The only thing I can say is that I've heard the pay is higher in San Francisco, and that they apparently have this bridge that's a big deal, a prison on an island, an old cinema, a winding road, hilly streets with sick jumps and that's it.
  14. Sid Meier's Civilization V

    GDAY MATE lol j/k only kidding lol If everyone is going to be international, the weekend is probably the only possible option, yeah. We should determine the maximum and minimum GMT offset for calculate optimal opportunity. Mine's +2 currently.
  15. Life

    That depends.
  16. The Walking Dead

    These double spoiler block posts are sweet. What I meant was
  17. Left 4 Thumbs - The Homethumbing 2

    I will play this.
  18. The Walking Dead

    Another thing I forgot to mention:
  19. Life

  20. The Secret World

    Is there an embargo on this or what? It's out today, but no reviews anywhere.
  21. McPixel

    No there is NOTHING MORE but it is all you need.
  22. Xbox 720

    If cloud gaming à la Onlive becomes a big thing, I wonder if publishers will start insisting on and API for playing their little vignettes each time you resume the game. Sometimes it seems like the most important thing for a publisher is to play five or six different videos before the main menu – will they give up all that without a fight?

    Sorry, maybe next Veteranendag. It's only ten bucks though, and worth going a few days without food.
