Any game that's played against other humans who are also decent at the game qualifies. The game I play most frequently is CSS, although I've just been pubbing lately, which hardly could be said to require skill. Buy Nocturne, gank bitches. On a serious note it's buggy and imbalanced, but...

Whether or it's better than Oblivion, it's only really worth it if you have time to play it. It won't really be rewarding if you can't spend a good amount of time on it, it's quite slow paced really. It also doesn't coddle like Oblivion, if you kill someone who isn't supposed to die you get a...

People might disagree but I'm going to say Total Annihilation. It's a game that I still have to have install immediately any time I get a new PC. Even Supcom failed to live up to that game, no RTS has ever come close to sucking me in the way that game did. Just listening the epic soundtrack...

Two fighting picks if they're in the game, which I very much doubt they will be. In their absence any sort of meaty axe will suffice. Maces would work for me too, I have a thing for weapons that deliver crushing or hacking blows over the slicey slicey of swords.

If you remember levelling in Stranglethorn Vale on a pvp server then you remember why it was so easy to hate the other faction. On PvE servers there's no real reason to hate anyone bar the forum trolls. For the love of God, don't say that on the WoW forums. You'd cause such a huge explosion...

People need to stop with this shit argument. Far more often than not person A pirates the game, shows it to persons B,C, and D, who in turn go and pirate the game or simply have person A stick it on a disc for them at the time. I'm sick of hearing about people who "download a game to see if it's...

The thing I noticed about the demo was that I actually got to push buttons and use skills. This I enjoy. Surely you remember the torment of running out of stamina and having practically no combat regen, leaving you to auto attack for the rest of the fight. If you played anything except a mage...

I can fully agree that I would prefer to know exactly what my character is going to say and in what tone. I don't like having to guess at it and yes, ME2 was quite annoying as far as this was concerned. I like to here it voiced after I've chosen it too though. Silent protagonists just don't work...

I don't know what to make of your stance though. You control your Warden's personality by selecting from predefined answers. They're just not voiced. The moment in the game where I want to do something and the game does not allow me (Say killing Alistair, Anora and Loghain in the Landsmeet and...

There may be variety, but it doesn't really matter. Sure you can have a healer/buffer rogue, but once the theorycrafters figure out that it isn't optimal it won't be played. Same for the other quirky combinations. It's not the game's fault, more the players. They always want to be told what's...

As I've stated before, I don't see how Hawke having a name and voice limits your options any more than in Origins. There are just inescapable facets of your character. In Origins, you are a Grey Warden, no matter what. You can never just decide to flee and leave Alistair to it. You always fight...

This is my point though. It's a cluster fuck and you need to select that specific unit really quickly or you are going to lose. So you move your hand with blazing speed. Except, because your mouse speed exceeded a specific threshold, you had an acceleration curve applied to your movement. So you...

Acceleration is absolutely horrific for fps games. How can you develop consistent aim when you can not guarantee that equal arm movements generate equal on-screen movements. The only times anyone should be touching acceleration is if they have a 400 dpi mouse and it is slow aroud the desktop, or...

CS 1.6, and to a lesser extent CS:S. Also Quake and Unreal Tournament. Let's not forget half life deathmatch. Garpy blows my mind.
