I'm amazed they managed to avoid a "He's dead, Jim".

Try Starfarer: It's about space battles with fleets from small to huge. You also get to shoot yourself instead of just watching. Beats RTS any day in my opinion.

Yes. Reason: Proper storytelling + freedom of choice + fallout atmosphere. (+optional mods on PC) I personally found no major bugs for about 4 playthroughs although crashes after about 3 hours are technically bugs. Don't much care about those, since they are good stopping points to not...

While it is true, that Valve did the same thing when launching Steam, one must not forget, that the digital distribution market was a lot smaller. Steam effectively "kickstarted" the market into what it is today. If you want to open a new market, you need convincing arguments and a bit of...

I enjoyed Alpha Protocol, I'd be up for a second helping. Then again I can't fathom how bad it was on a console. In my opinion Mass Effect 2 was about as enjoyable an experience as Alpha Protocol. Both games make one thing right: They react and keep track of what the player does and add context...

Oh my, this looks exceedingly bad. Stick with humour, will you?

Jumped the shark.

Option 1... gorramn, shouldn't have played Dead Space.

Nice article, never heard of the game when it was still under MS. I played this one when it became free. By the time I did the community was small, tightly regulated but made regular events for newbies to learn the game. Gameplay was basically: Scouting. Pinpointing the enemy location...

I agree in general with Shamus' point of view; most companyies wouldn't go out on limb to cut voice acting to a sensible amount, improve the quality of that voice acting, give some more money to marketing and add choicese (replayability) for their games. That said I see the need for voice...

Bootlegged copy of doom at 6ish, didn't understand it at all at that time though.

Most (all?) direct2drive games have modified/protected .exe files which is hell if you are into getting mods/fan patches for games. While steam has similar methods of ensuring file integrity they are less intrusive and most stuff still works on steam versions. Conclusion: As european...

You often get targeted by scammers if you are in big popular steam groups (which are useless btw.) While people are gathered here to talk about the obvious things: do not, I repeat DO NOT click on any links sent to you via steamfriends by people you don't fully trust (intelligent people that...
