Half-Life 2. 16 hours, with a lunch break and a good bunch of cigarette/toilet breaks. But I did finish the game in one sitting. Heavy Rain I'd say 12-14 hours. Got up early in the morning (9am), went to get the game, bought some food on the way and came back home to play it. Monkey...

Several times actually. Most recent must have been Earthrise, altough beta isn't a demo, but after being admitted to beta I saw what the game actually was and steered away.

Not bothering to read, just showing you this: PC Gaming is only dead in the eyes of the developers, in truth, PC gaming is doing extremely well and will get more love from the devs eventually.

Done with several adventure games. We used to do this with my friend years ago, now that it was mentioned I think I'll give him a call and see if we can arrange another through the weekend gaming session. About the games played: Monkey Island 1=>4 Space Quest 1=>6 Leisure Suit Larry 1=>3...

I think I know what my next birthday present wish will be... This will be very good news for people that can't get credit card. Other than that, I have my credit card info saved on my steam account, so all I need to do when I buy game from steam is click three times (+ 2 more clicks to...

Here's mine: Cover a baking tray with nachos. Fry some minced meat with good seasoning and spread it over the nachos. Add can off salsa. Maybe some jalapenos or beans. Cover everything with grated cheddar. Put into 170C (340F) oven for about one cigarette. If you have the energy, some...

If we skip MMOs (Ultima Online would be first and EVE online second), then it's either VGA Planets or Space empires IV with Steel Panthers close behind. If you drop multiplayer games, then it would be Civilization (either 1 or 4).

I'm disappointed that he skipped Covert Action rule, I would really have wanted to hear what it is. Covert Action is IMO a great game, one that would definitely deserve a remake, there are just so many aspects of the game that are already really good and with little work could be really great...

Lance Henriksen reading a story that's grim enough to cause me nightmares (I have them very rarely). And tunner up would be Bruce Boxleitner, but his story would have to be a bit brighter, maybe some war time diary.

So you don't read system requirements before you buy a game?

I think I'll just go through with them one by one: Day 1 DLC - I dislike DLCs as whole, not just day 1 DLC. The idea is fine, but it has been abused to death. There are too many DLCs that cost too much and give too little. Subscription fees - Never had any problems with this. Only games...

Fortunately, no. But when I get mad enough I might do that to someone, now that I have it all planned up. Would be a shame to let good plan go to waste.

Gamer hell is when someone installs Big Rigs on your computer, puts it in startup, puts a shutdown batch file after the game exe and then locks you out completely, followed by removing CD drive and welding the case shut. Everytime you start your computer, only thing you can do is play Big Rigs...

FPS - Half Life 2 or COD 4, those 2 respresent different ends of the FPS spectrum. RTS - Starcraft, but we mustn't forget the impact of original C&C. RPG - Fallout 2, the freedom and variety of that game is massive. RPS - Fallout 3, I may dislike the game, but no other games combines FPS and...

I think bad grammar can be categorized into 3 categories: 1)People who can't speak english properly, but they do their best. In these cases little advisory grammar nazism can actually help them improve their english skills. I count myself part of this category, altough my english isn't the...
