Great ideas. I'm all for trade goods and more explorations of the ruins and the likes. However I am against resurection of Heroes. I do not want them to become cannon fodder. I don't see why the heroes could be resurected when the channeler dies. I want the hero to die and not come back. This way I thinnk we will be more careful with them and not just send them into battle without evaluating the risk factor. Hail the Frog [e dig

This game will look great. The fact that stardock will make sure thast their game works great on all kids of different machines is also way cool. As for the pics I love them. Can't wait to see everything together. As for some who want to complain about the graphics up to know remember that probably most games that look way cool now looked way bad when they were in their alpha build. PATIENCE!

I like these kinds of debate. I know why most people love them too. There is no right or wrong answer since it's all made up. So everybody can argue forever and never be proven wrong. Wether it's another universe, dimension faster then light or just a mind boggling illusion all of the answers are false. There is no true answer. You all have opinions and those are all true. Enjoy your debate :p </

For the first time yestarday one of my friends wanted to race me on wii kart. So I entered her on my kart friends list and after fighting the game for a while finally started to race. I was a bit dissapointed to see we were only 2 in the race. We raced a few times but it lost it appeal fast being just the two of us. Is there a way for my friend and I to be able to race together with other racers other then finding more friends? I mean on the world circuit yo

All ideas when nicely put like yours are welcome here. I too have laughed at some of the suggestions. However sometimes it's not really the outrageous suggestion that is important but the idea that it brings forth. Some of it can be used even though it might not be the original idea. I can just picture the Wrights brother telling people their idea of a flying machine. Most people must of thought them nuts. And yet.... I think Stardock is a great te

[quote who="DatonKallandor" reply="5" id="1961910"]Sadly it doesn't work like that, because "Good Game" is not a seperate entity from hardware need. ( and I beg to differ with DatonKallandor, it did require a NASA supercomputer to run at max settings when released ) Err, there is no begging to differ. It wasn't an opinion - it was fact. I have (repeatedly) put together PC's for under 800$ that could run Crysis on more-than-max settings (file-edited for extra

[quote who="XxTKDwarriorxX" reply="6" id="1968304"]The only good way to die is an apocolypse becasue if there is any sort of afterlife people are prob gonna be like "so how did u die?" and there would be ur basic, "o i got hit by a car" or " o i drank the glass of water on the table that actually tuned out to be peroxide" but then you can school everyone and be like " i died in the freaking apocolypse" [/quote] That's just the best response I've heard about this ki

I don't buy EA products anymore. EA = Bad customer service. If they want me as a customer they will change their way or I just won't buy from them.

I wanted to play oblivion this week-end. And for some reason I could not find my cd. I found the box and the manual but not the cd. I('ll let you guess as to what happened afterwards. I just love the fact that this does not happen with Galciv. I never have to look for my cd. What a joy.

I've always been a fan of the game on the NES. I even play it from time to time on my emulator. I was just wondering if anybody as given this remake of the original a try and if it played well with a gamepad. (Ijust don't see myself playing this game with my keyboard) The graphics certainly look great.

I buy games that I know I will enjoy from developpers I trust. In the past I use to buy about 20 games a year. Now it's about 10. And from those 10 I pick and choose the ones I really trust. I don't care what the companies do but I figure that at some point lots of people will be doing what I am doing. Either because they have a limited income or because they are tired of getting crappy games.

[quote who="NelsMonsterX" reply="18" id="1962594"]@Solam I'm trying to encourage my kids to stick with PC gaming, too. They use an older computer of mine and get to play all the Lego games and movie/cartoon tie-ins, but they do come home from school asking about PSPs, Wiis, PS3s, etc. because their friends are starting to get them. So far so good though, they have plenty to do between their games and the tons of stuff they can do/watch online. I'll never buy

[quote who="landisaurus" reply="3" id="1955329"]Yeah, master of magic always asked what you wanted to name any new towns and many games have had it sense. Missing that feature would be mind blowing, and probebly added in a patch if somehow overlooked. You almost MUST be able to name nows if you are in charge of managing many self-placed cities.

When galciv 2 came out I bought digital download + box, and I have still never opened the box. It's packed away somewhere in storage still in the plastic wrap. Since then every time I've bought a game online I've gone for the digital download only. And with Impulse I don't feel like I'm just being allowed to borrow it. I feel like I own it, but the installation files are being saf

It seems to be a real cool Idea. Seems to be that the way you handle AI is brand new. Never heard of a game ever doing it this way. I can,T wait to try and see how I can play against one. Will we be able to save game and continue at a later point or during the beta will the game be lost? Thanks again for the update it's great!!! [e digicons]:frogboy:[/e] Hail ho! glorious leader!!!

I remember when I use to play everquest 2. My old rig was not that good but they had made their game scalable. So we could play it well with less graphics. Now I'm sure with my new laptop I could probably play it at full with little trouble. The game as been out what 4 years now or something like that. So you guys are right, if they did lower the game requirments a lot more poeple would buy it. Is it so hard to make it scalable? I have forgone a few games knowin

It's always the fault of the Pirates. Strange that some companies are able to sell a lot of their product, and the big companies that don't sell so much... IT'S THE PIRATES!!!!!!! Anyway they can try and go on consoles, I think they can install chips on all consoles now. Which means pirates can steal it there too. I wonder what the developpers will say then when their prioduct don't sell so well. ALIENS!!!!! Give me a break, make a g

I have a Wii and 3 desktops and one laptop at home. I'm 34 yars old. I played Atari 2600 nes snes, genesis, super nintendo and PS1. The games on those consoles were always expensive compared to PC. NHL2008 was 20 on the PC try adn find that on a console at that price. The only reason I got the Wii is because I have 3 kids and most games are less then 30$ each. I never dreamed of getting a 400$ console (whicjh finally are cheaper these days) and pay 50$ or more for conso
