I refuse to believe there was any E3s past 1997, if there was, surely Coming Soon Magazine would have covered them.

Jeff said what I was thinking regarding Epic/Bandcamp. The best outcome of this purchase would be if Epic just scrapped their entire Epic Storefront and replaced it with Bandcamp's. Bandcamp does not...

Damn, I've been trying to tell people about the Wizardry (Wizardry II primarily) to Souls lineage for like 13 years now, good to finally see people starting to get it.

People seem to forget that every Battlefield launch in the last 10 years has been disastrous. Battlefield 4 is fondly remembered now, but it was completely broken for a year, to the point that EA had ...

I'll say some of the earlier Civilization games (especially Civilization II: Test of Time, Call to Power and Call to Power 2) had much more in-depth environmental mechanics than the more recent ones,...

I'm not sure it was a direct causal relationship, but, yeah, I haven't played anything in months and haven't felt like playing anything either.I have an 'essential job' though, so I was never off wor...

The Norwegian jazz musician Nils Petter Molvær put out a new album this year, and I've been kinda obsessed with the single "Nearly Invisible Stitches". Back in the 90s he was one of the pioneers of fu...

Can't say it's a regular thing, I rarely feel the pressure to play something because it's the thing people talk about. One that does come to mind is XCOM 2012 though, it was pretty hyped at the time...

@asylumrunner: oh yes, the Section 8 games were great budget shooters, really scratching that Tribes itch at a time there was nothing else like it out there.

Dust 514, MAG and Defiance come first to mind. Really enjoyed all three, covering slightly different niches of MMO shooters.There are also two that got shutdown before I felt I could get my money's wo...

I guess the first thing that comes to mind is Diablo 1's theme song. Everybody knows the Tristram theme, and they keep repeating that one in every game, but they've never really revisited the original...

@ll_exile_ll said:To me, the word overrated should only really apply to things that are good, but have become so popular and hyped that nothing can possibly live up to that standard. It's not suppose...

@av_gamer said: Them discovering just how big Russia is reminds me of the Negativland "Time Zones" theme. 11! Time Zones.YES!! I was so close to just quoting that song in chat when they realized it. ...

1. While I think it manages to create a unique enough look and feel of its own, it's pretty clear that the Wing Commander games take some heavy inspiration from Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek, an...

I remember people absolutely hated Ace Combat: Assault Horizon. It was a bad Ace Combat game, but still a great arcade air combat title. The multiplayer modes had several years of staying power for m...

The PS2 version of Deus Ex had a bug that would sometimes just take you to the main menu (exiting the game without saving progress), instead of actually saving when you clicked the save button. I los...

What first comes to mind isn't exactly some original idea. I just want a Sim Isle 2, and it's kinda baffling to me that there are no other games out there like the original Sim Isle.Kind of an indirec...

I still haven't listened since I have absolutely no relationship to or interest in the two albums covered so far, but is it just dumping on albums that are considereed bad or is there room for like, ...
