    Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Finally Coming to PC, Without Online DRM

    Riddle me this: does anybody know if the Codex edition is Europe/Australia only again or it will be available world-wide this time? (Since there is absolutely no mention ANYWHERE of the Jack-in-a-box collector's edition for PC). I really dig the chest in the Codex edition (so I want it :D ), but...

    Who likes their Pokemon unevolved?

    I like Pokemon. Well, I like the first two generations, to be precise (I mean, design-wise and balance-wise... not to mention that each generation after second started adding up more absurd and absurd legendaries, bleh). And even though I hate how most of the post-2nd generation pokemon look...

    American Box Art Sucks

    Which reminds me. Russian releases usually use European covers. But sometimes there's shit shittier than American shit (although, not all American covers are bad). Like this one.

    Marvel Changing Captain America Movie Name for Russian Release

    They should've renamed it to Captain Obvious. CO is VERY known in Russia :p

    Biggest gaming dissapointment.

    I hope CD Projekt will do the save-game feature right with Witcher 2. (from the looks of the previews, they will). Witcher 1, with all it's flaws, was much more awesome than Mass Effect 1 (released almost at the same time they were). Which, reminds me... I can't name every disappointment, so...

    Immortality, with a price...

    Fine, I can't be killed. What happens to me when I go in space and leave the spaceship without any protection? Practice piano? O_o

    Nearly Everything We Know About the Uncharted Movie Is Apparently Wrong

    Not that I'm unhappy with the news, but... seriously, what the ****? I'm not putting my hopes up or anything, because when crap like this happens (some news, bad or good, suddenly turning out to be untrue) you can't help but expect more of it (for good or bad). Still. It would be great for...

    Super Meat Boy Creator Wants Russians to Design the PC Box Art

    The Russian Braid cover is the most atrocious thing I've ever seen. And I'm speaking as a Russian here. Whoever decides to participate in the contest, please, do NOT make anything like the Russian Braid cover!

    283: Introducing The Escapist's Genre Wheel

    Well, as far as I see it, they're Action/Conflict on the chart. Action - cause requires the constant use of reflexes, Conflict - pits you against equal (or almost equal) adversaries (in these cases - fellow humans).

    283: Introducing The Escapist's Genre Wheel

    That IS a very interesting wheel. Me likes it :) I have some questions though. 1. Half-Life. Is it Action/Conflict, or Action/Conflict/Exploration? I think the latter, because exploring and fighting the environment of Black Mesa is one of the key aspects to get through the game, even though...

    Shamus Plays: LOTRO, Part 5

    Shamus, you may be interested to learn that, along with the new F2P updates, the Archet beginning was revamped. It became more logical. Basically, it goes like this (for a Hobbit): 1. We start as a, I understand, bounder and meet up with bounder Boffin. We meet Frodo, Sam and Pippin who then...
