I think that Mortal Kombat is regarded as "shallow" in Europe compared to SF

It all nonsense, none of these generalisations exist for the game in Europe.
This is true. The only reason I can think of as to why europeans wouldn't like MK is because of the excessive violence in x-rays and so on. Europe has always been weary of such things, just like the americans are with sexual stuff.

Alan Wake, the atmosphere in that game is amazing, mostly due to the excellent lighting. I do wish they hadn't spoiled it a little bit with that UI though.

I don't have the money for them so I couldn't buy one, but I think the technology has progressed enough for a new generation to be fully viable. I've been playing games on my PC instead of 360 for the past year and whenever I boot something up on my 360 it just looks rubbish. Both graphics and gameplay (especially in terms of AI, physics and scope) could get much more impressive with new hardware.


Also, realistically they will only be out in 2012-2013 if they get announced this year, so by that time it will definitely be time for a change.

I knew of the days, but it doesn't really get celebrated where I am. At most someone in the news mentions it.

I prefer AC1. It's definitely worse in terms of variety than the others, but I preferred the feel of the world which is really important to me since I enjoy simply running around looking at buildings and so on in games. Also, medieval times are just cooler and more interesting than the renaissance in my opinion.


Brotherhood is best as a game, but it falls short in terms of story compared to 2, so it would be difficult to choose between those two, they're very similar. I do hope they rework the engine and flow of the game a bit for the future since it is starting to get a little bit stale.

Along with checking the hardware, I would also reinstall Windows if you haven't done so for 9 months+. After that amount of time drivers can start misbehaving and crashing the system.

I think it would be nice if people changed up from time to time, since 5 is too much to have a proper conversation. I'm sure they always have plenty of other stuff to do so not everyone should be on the podcast.


It would keep the bombcast fresh as well.

Yes. I only bought Warband and don't intend to buy any of the others - they're just too similar. The singleplayer is actually very fun, but if it was more streamlined and many little annoyanced were fixed, it could be really great, up with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. as one of the best games from the east.

Ford, by far. But this is coming from a european and their cars are the most similar to the ones from Europe.

Is PSN and XBL really so slow? On my PC an 11GB game downloads in less than an hour from Steam.
