    Planescape: Torment!

    This game is why I'm excited about Neverwinter Nights 2. Dak'kon and Morte are the best NPCs ever. Ever. EVER. Chris Avellone, the lead designer for Torment, is working on writing up all the party members for NWN2. For some reason, NWN2 is suddenly my most anticipated game (awesome toolset...

    More Wii "Rumors" (Deleted @ Nintendo forums)

    Hmm, if they actually make a gyroscopic headset (eg. check here for an example on the PC http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/ ), that would allow for independant aiming via the wiimote, while being able to turn with your head. I'd be surprised if Nintendo actually does this (check out how...

    Next Generation of StarWars, "FORCE"

    The Wii wouldn't just be ideal for Jedi games. Notice how easily the wiimote can be positioned as a joystick? Make it happen, Lucasarts.

    Next Generation of StarWars, "FORCE"

    The Wii version is the only one that matters. LucasArts recently announced that they're supporting all next-gen consoles (whether it includes this title or not was unspecified). They also hinted at the similarity of the wiimote to a lightsaber and made lots of lightsaber noises.

    Everyone check out the SD Gundam one now!

    Armed Assault News from BIStudios

    From what I understood from previous previews, 'Capture The Island' would actually encompass the WHOLE 400m2 island. Now THAT is freaking awesome.

    so what if the Wii controllers turn out to be an annoying gimmick?

    Well, let's examine Zelda. You move with the analog stick, you attack with A or B or whatever. Basically, conventional Zelda controls. What's preventing the Wii from using conventional controls? It's got an analog stick, it has a digital pad, it has buttons. Let's look at what it *adds*. Aiming...

    so what if the Wii controllers turn out to be an annoying gimmick?

    Well, it's not as if seeing someone holding a regular controller makes them the epitome of cool. Let's say I give you a lightsaber. Just hold it in your hand and have fun. Zoink. Would you rather play it that way, or play it with a regular controller but with 10 times the polygons? Would it...

    Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 Preloading Now

    Well, I don't see RO in My Games, though. Can't see where I could preload it.

    Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 Preloading Now

    Hmm, can you preload without preordering? I want to test out the demo before I do anything. Also, in terms of this realism thing, how would those who have played both the RO mod and Operation Flashpoint compare the two? I'm holding out for Armed Assault, and am wondering if Ostfront might be...

    The Battle for Middle-earth II single-player demo, Tomorrow.

    Played it. Good production values. Otherwise just another uninnovative generic RTS. Not really surprising, just disappointing.

    RTS Rant!

    The only real conventional RTS game I'm looking forward to is Supreme Commander. Bringing scale to a whole new level will hopefully make a big difference. The 'tanks are very very slow' and 'maps are very very large' philosophy should indicate a slower pace where units can't cross an entire map...

    Dangerous Waters and Space Empires 4 released

    I wrote this about DW in another thread. And yes, there is a non-Steam demo. "I've played the Dangerous Waters demo, which has been out for a while. It's very fun, and is superb at what it does. I suggest any fan of the simulation genre at least try it out. Warning: this game requires...

    New Steam Games Ready for Pre-Purchase!

    I've played the Dangerous Waters demo, which has been out for a while. It's very fun, and is superb at what it does. I suggest any fan of the simulation genre at least try it out. Warning: this game requires PATIENCE. The multistation coop is awesome, basically. I love coop games, so that was...
