I was quite annoyed by the lack of Dwemer ruins in Oblivion, considering the lore says there are some in and under the Velothi Mountains (and any on the Cyrodiil side could probably be explained away by shifts in the borders between the provinces). But if they're coming back in Skyrim, and are...

Oblivion's is much better in terms of realism (of course), although if I reinstall it any time soon, I'm getting a mod to fix the damn enemy levelling. Fallout 3's, however, is much more RPG-styled, which helps you to shape your character in whatever way you choose much more easily. Don't know...

First playthrough was kind of a Paragade, picking Renegade options whenever I thought it would be best/awesome (like letting that Turian in Garrus' ME2 mission die). Role-playing?

I always thought Thud! was more about cultural and racial intolerance? Anyway, I'm reading Brandon Sanderson's The Way of Kings and (if we can count paperback editions of comics) Season 8 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Planning to read The Iliad next. Also, I've noticed a lot of people in...

I'm not big on it myself, but I don't have too much of an issue with it as long as it's not excessive, and as long as it's not just a cry for respect/acceptance from someone with self-esteem issues. But, since my attitude towards it changes every week or two, I voted "Meh".

I'd usually just go shortish-haired metalhead, but sometimes I get this look if I'm sitting around at home and wearing old oversized clothes (like now). Apart from band shirts though, I tend to not dress according to any trend.

As I said in my post, art style isn't the same as graphics, it's how you take advantage of them.

Not necessarily. I think people often confuse art style and graphics when they're talking about this, and the first of the two is much more important, IMO.

I've played through the Pitt on two playthroughs now, and I took a different option each time (first time I sided with Wernher, since my first is always the "good" playthrough, but it was very morally grey anyway). I must say, I really wish they'd fleshed out Pittsburgh more, because the...

Far Cry 2. It's one of those games that seems awesome enough for the first hour of play, and then you start to realise it's the same shit over and over again, with very little in the way of an identifiable plot. I couldn't even bring myself to finish it, it bored me so much.

I think her accent is the only authentic non-American or British one in the game, which I was personally glad for. I did find the way she said "Connor" a little grating after a while though.

Hm, let's see... * Rogues being underpowered until Level 14 or so, while mages are... well, not. * No open world. At least Mass Effect 2 justified it with the space travel. * The way they tried (and, unlike in ME2, failed) to make the main storyline seem less linear than it is. *...
