Today I was playing GTA4: Lost and Damned, and I just finished it.
I really, really liked it, except that it was kind of short. I can say the same about Half Life 2: Ep.1, and Ep.2.
Anyways, here is the original set of what DLC and Episodic content should be like:
A) Cheap prices -- hey i am not complaining, it is cheaper, sometimes even free
B) Shorter games -- yeah, thats true.
C) Easier to develop/ shorter development cycle --eh?

So it is true that it took a shorter while to develop the Half Life 2 episodes then half life 2 itself. But it still took quite a while. As for lost and damned, it also tooka  while to release and develop. Anyways, I don't see the shorter development cycle play that much of an effect here, like id rather play a more finished game then a couple of hours of an episode.

I just don' think that there is a shorter development cycle in this,
what do you guys think?

I mean they got A, and B right, but C is off the beaten track.

its time to kick ass and chew bubble gum.. and i am all outta gum!

This is probably my problem since I never played an RPG before. But the gunplay in fallout 3 is punishing, for a game that looks like an average shooter. its pretty much like dice rolling. VATS seems like it works, but I don't really like using it, its pretty annoying. I got to the part of the garden of eden. and then I stopped, I am probably gonna play some more, but i find it punishing that there is pretty much no place for skill.
==I mean when I tracked to fallout 2 I didn't have this problem, because it didn't appear like a shooter while this one totally does.
Am i doing something wrong?
how do you play fallout3?
yeah...

Lately there has been a lot of strange things going on with Yahtzee's zero punctuation series.
It seems that rather then actually saying what he thought about the game, he just tries to bring
its bad points out to the point were its not really review anymore but rather: I will now diss the shit out
of this game.
Did anyone else notice this or is it just me?

Hey,
After buying a brand new PC with good specs, I was rather disappointed by all the "PC" games, and the overstuff PC Gaming Community, a bunch of nerds who consider themselves better then console gamers because of the fact that they appreciate old games. What is undeniable in there claim is that an oldest an xbox gamer will play is Gears of War, nothing older, while PC gamers still play half life and shit. But maybe its because the PC is quite in new releases front, and only gets a handful of games when console gamers are dying with them.
That by no means shows that I am for the "pc is dying" theory, simply put, its not, the PC is doing fine with the most technically advanced graphics and what not in the industry. Look at valve, for example, when someone says PC is dying to them, they just laugh, all theyre stuff is coming out for PC, including extra content that is only avialable for the PC version. Team Fortress 2 is dead on consoles, (at least on the 360), but on the PC, there is loads of players.
There are a bunch of games that are best on PC, and those include: Far Cry 2, TF2, Fallout 3, and a bunch of other games.
The PC is by no means dying.
Oh, and here are the specs
Dual  Core E8400 @ 3.16ghz
4GB RAM
nVidia 790i MotherBoard
geForce 9600 (2 of em) each @ 512mb
64bit vista...
yeah, thats about it. I'll stick around the PC for a while now I guess
