I only did it because I knew I'd get an essay from an American on the topic. In a similar vein I enjoy using the word - and in deference to US sensibilities I won't type it in full - c*nt online…

Good call on the Dark Sun games. They're very over-looked. Perhaps because they were almost impossible to run on Windows 95 even with the most minimal boot disk. There's the bugs too. But the only…

I can't think of anything duller or more unworkable than Napoleon's wars under this engine. The game works by reshaping history over then centuries. It's not a Total War game.

The funny thing is that Dark Souls isn't really a PC game and it's getting a conversion. I couldn't imagine playing Dark Souls without an Xbox controller. Dragon's Dogma on the other hand screams PC…

We're talking about a has-been. He should co-found a new studio with Peter Molyneux.
I grew up with his games and his star was fading even then. Ultima Pagan wasn't greeted with universal acclaim…

They've outlined much of my problems with modern 3-D RPGs. The technology and development resources available don't match the scale of the developer's ambitions. Why don't they just set their games…

Play Dragon's Dogma for a while and the Borderlands comparison is more obvious. It appears at first glance much more of an RPG than it actually is. Like Borderlands, it's essentially a single player…

You are correct. I'm thinking of Xtension(?) maybe. I've being playing video games since Pacman and am suffering from gamer's senility. All these games bleed into one after a while. The nurse will be…

'What might otherwise just be "goofy" becomes funny and endearing'
No it doesn't. For me it was merely irritating - never mind goofy. Humour is subjective and I haven't enjoyed a single moment of…

There's a "stats" option under the menu. It's typically JRPG in that you get no options there. Which is typically AD&D on which all JRPGs are based via the orginal Wizardry. Asian games aren't big on…

Thanks to the constant rain here I've nearly finished it. Don't expect a deep RPG; its feels hollow on some levels. However, it's an excellent ARPG. I enjoyed it much more than Titans Quest or…

In runs fine on the Xbox, which is vaguely comparable to a high end PC when Oblivion was released, so I wouldn't be too worried. And I don't see what all the fuss is about Blighttown. I cleared it…
