The changes to the original content you get for free - its a patch. But without the Cataclysm expansion you cannot play the new races or level beyond 80, or visit the BRAND new areas that are 80+ If you just own vanilla wow then you get all the revised content of the old world, but are...

Bringing a new product to market is a very difficult thing to achieve - it takes years to do, and in order to make an impact in the market place, it also has to be heavily marketed (which costs a fortune). When people talk about "surprise" hits, what they really mean is games that came out...

I agree in principle with the idea that the stunt in Indy 4 broke from the established reality of the medium. Because Indy is an adventure story (heroic / mystic stuff happens), rather than a fantasy (stuff happens by magic), its pretty clear to see an issue with an unrealistic stunt. But can...

I suppose the main game I want to play next is the one that isn't a mass pile of horse droppings and actually has something marginally original in it. I still want to see the massive mecha sumo robot striding across the city scape of Tokyo with you as the plucky black smith who has stolen 50...

I suppose I could say that I'm on the apposing faction to the writer here. I love the sprawling dungeons from Vanilla, which took some exploration, and are not just a long corridor of monsters (worst culprit by far in Shattered Halls, which doesn't even attempt the illusion of non linearity)...

Shadow Man (Acclaim), was released in 1999. There has been rumblings about potential remakes for a while, but nothing has come about. There is currently a couple of facebook fan pages, and some of the original game creators are members, and they answer questions to the fans about the...

Perhaps Shadowman (PC, Dreamcast, N64 and PS1), had a lot going for it. Main character : Black, not a beefcake, spent 50% of his time as a Zombie (in deadside and at night-time). Visually you do see the aftermath of many nasty things (the playrooms level in deadside is a fantastic example...
