    Obsidian Unveils Project Eternity

    I didn't even bother reading through Kickstarter proposal, I just threw $20 at them. Considering how they were constantly screwed over by publishers on most games they released, this could be their big break.

    Games that EVERYONE loves but you don't?

    I don't really care what game it could've been, otherwise I could rant about STALKER and X-COM 3 and the games they both should have been for hours. What matters is that a plain mediocre console shooter gets ported back to PC after a few more years and in case of Halo 2 even demands Vista and...

    What to you want from Red Alert 4?

    I must be like one of 3 people in the world who loved every bit of RA3. I liked the units, the gameplay, the wacky setting and storyline full of in-jokes and references, the graphics that manage to look better than the ones in C&C4, the absolutely brilliant voice acting for every single unit...

    Games that EVERYONE loves but you don't?

    Plenty. Let's see - Half-Life series (boring generic FPS), STALKER (boring overhyped FPS with more bugs than in a beehive), Modern Warfare 2 (do I really need to explain that one?), WoW (overhyped grindfest), Warcraft 3 (boring and very slow-paced micro-centered gameplay), Starcraft 2 (or...

    Poll: Was It Wrong To Drop The Atomic Bombs In Japan?

    The only reason the bomb was used was to scare Japan into submission before the Soviets came and started demanding their share of the pie. August Storm was a major success, and if the bombs weren't dropped then the surrender would be negotiated on Soviet terms, not American. It's a very...

    New X-Com Shooter Coming From BioShock 2 Studio

    Oh look, another FPS! As if FPS haven't been dime a dozen for the past ten years! What the hell are they thinking? FBI agent? Rich lore? Gripping narrative ride? There wasn't even any lore worth speaking of until Apocalypse! Dear god, has making good turn-based strategies suddenly become...

    Review: Metro 2033

    There are many, many things wrong with this review but seriously, "based on Xbox 360 version of the game"? It's screaming "PC game" at you from the very beginning.

    Why should I buy BFBC2?

    BFBC2 is an instant buy. Balance is in, destructible environments matter, vehicles are fun, squad play is encouraged, there's quite a lot of variety in individual class strategies... hell, if not for IMA SNIPUH retards on Isla Inocentes I'd call this game perfect. And the PC version is vastly...

    Zero Punctuation: Final Fantasy XIII

    Much better than the previous episode, I have to say, even though I only have the most vague idea of what the game is about due to being a proud member of PC master race.

    Old RTS game

    Customizable units, eh? Might be War, Inc., although it's not that futuristic and certainly not taking place on other planets. Hmm. I do seem to remember an RTS closely matching your description, but I've forgotten its name. Looking for it now.

    Still ain't fun

    Temple of Trials in Fallout 2. The horror. Oh, the HORROR.

    Poll: Fallout 3 or [PROTOTYPE]?

    Two completely different games here, but here's my take: Fallout 3 should only be played on PC (insert obligatory PC MASTER RACE rant here) due to many, many, MANY excellent mods that are out there. Yes, that is a reason enough to play it on PC. They can literally fix and/or change everything...

    Funniest Left 4 Dead Stories

    Pretty much every time me and my friends meet a tank in co-op becomes stuff of legend. Dead Air 3 (construction site). We pour out of the starting room, so full of ourselves, shoot zombies and immediately run into a tank. Normally we can kill it before it kills us, albeit with difficulty (we...
