I'm looking forward to improvements to the lethality of combat, and hopefully the responsiveness. I'm not sure if other people have this issue (I've admittedly not checked too carefully) but when I click to swing my sword, it just feels sluggish. Not in the "I'm swinging a big-ass sword, and...

I think both performances have their strengths and weaknesses, but I find that Mark Meer's performance was just plain more consistent. Some of the lines that Jennifer Hale said got delivered perfectly... and some of them sounded like she was asleep. When you're trying to talk down some crazy-ass...

Water and the occasional ham roll-up or some crunchy vegetable. Stupid diet.

I honestly thought thought that The Witcher 2 was an amazing, but incredibly flawed title. The story was amazing, but the ending was possibly the worst I've ever seen in any form of media with a story. The preparation before combat was a cool idea, but the crafting and alchemy systems were...

Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

The Difficulty Curve has nothing to do with how hard the game is. It has to do with the rate it gets hard and at what points in the game the difficulty either increases or decreases. The difficulty started out pretty good, but quickly got far too easy because late game skills weren't balanced...

Personally, I'm somewhere about half way in-between the recommended system and the minimum one, but I can barely get a good framerate out of, no matter how bad it looks. I did find that lowering the resolution really helps, but it also makes it look ridiculously fuzzy. The game is an absolute...

If people want to, I don't see a problem. The choices that other people make don't bother me, and this is just extending those choices to your brain chemically.

I prefer dogs, simply because every cat I've ever known is an annoying pain in the ass.

This is a good idea. It'll allow you to create a save without having to play through the entire first game every time. I honestly think it would be better free, but if I'm looking to start a quick new game of Mass Effect without playing through the first one, it wouldn't kill me to drop 4 bucks.

Not too surprising. NBC has had a string of terrible TV shows, so I imagine that they're being pretty darn picky about what they pay for.

Orange. Orange is my favorite color, so if I'm ever killed by bleeding to death, I'd drown in happiness.

I've heard rumors that the GoG servers will actually be loading the game up on the 16th, about 6 PM London-time, because that's when you can't pre-order anymore. If this is true, it may make our wait just a touch easier. If it isn't... somebody on the Witcher forums is going to pay.

Witcher 2 Instead

...as opposed to all the parts in the bible specifically stating that nobody can know the exact time of the end of the world besides God? Just how dumb are these supposed "Christians". They make the rest of us look so stupid.
