    PC Gaming vs Console Gaming...

    I still think that Consoles are becoming more and more like PC's anyways. Here is a question, would it be hard for PC's to eventually have the ability to play a console game without installing but playing off the disk instead? I am sure there are all kinds of complications with that but if the...

    OFP2 out this week

    I think a Demo may be coming out later this month. I think it does have potential especially for the PC version since I think the Console versions are severely gimped in aspects of multiplayer and editing tools

    OFP2 out this week

    It is on Steam but there is still not a buy button for it. It is supposed to be available in 4 hours. There must have been some hiccups about getting it on Steam so late. I plan on picking it up.

    ** The Other Official Fallen Earth Thread **

    I just downloaded and installed last night. wanted to try it out but the servers were down. Anyone know if this has any similar feel to Fallout? I am sure that it is definitely coming from another direction. It will be interesting to see what similarities there might be.

    Company of Heroes balance problems??

    One thing I have not seen mentioned as general strategy is to simply...go around. Static defenses weakness such as Slit trenches is that you can simply avoid them. As long as it is not in a critical location (such as the middle of your base) why deal with the hassle until you have the proper...

    xwing vs tie

    The Death Star run was a bit awkward as I remember it. I still dream of the day where the Battle of Endor could actually be recreated to scale with up to 256 players or more in a massive dog fight with capital ships slugging it out. I laughed with Xwing Alliance when most of the Star...

    xwing vs tie

    They actually did remakes of the engine for Tie Fighter and X-wing on similar standard to XvT. A new remake in the same universe (Nothing beats taking on a Star Destroyer) with photo realistic ship models. Am I wrong in thinking that current top-of-the-line computer hardware would eat...

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Just look at his name, "Azeroth101" Apparently he is not ready for "LOTRO 4030"

    AOC /EQ2 or LOTR

    for the OP, not sure if Age of Conan ever did get DX 10 but LOTRO looks awesome and your rig would run it flawlessly! I really think that LOTRO has some of the most breathtaking vistas for any MMO and if you are a Tolkien fan, you will really have the books come to life for you. I am also a...

    No LAN play in Starcraft II?

    The more I think about it, this is a pretty smart move though annoying nonetheless. Removing the LAN feature completely basically rids any chance of a game being cracked and played via LAN since that is no longer a play option. Only possibility I would see is somehow creating a "free"...

    No LAN play in Starcraft II?

    I think that is ridiculous! Why can't they just do what Company of Heroes does or Steam and just have come kind of an offline mode? I understand their desire to stop pirating of games but does Blizzard not realize that their games are probably the most legitimately owned games out there?

    thinking about trying a new MMORPG, got any suggestions?

    If you are looking for a complex combat system in LOTRO, I would suggest the Warden as a potential candidate. They are a new class that came out with the expansion that have an interesting "Gambit" system where they have three base skills that translate from 2-5 length combos. Lot of fun to...

    LOTRO Performance Night

    Gonna download that tonight. Would love to win one of those cards. Those are first place for me! Anyone know if you can install the client on the same hard drive as your current live account?

    Lord of the Rings Online : Welcome Back Week

    LOTRO is a very good mmo that has been solid ever since it released. It will be familiar to any WoW player in many aspects but the feel and atmosphere is very unique I think. I have recently gotten many friends to come and start playing who played WoW and they are really enjoying it. If you...

    LOTRO

    I also play on Silverlode and I never feel that it is deserted. LOTRO does seem to have a larger Alt population which is good for anyone just starting the game. Both my Wife and I have went with the Lifetime Subscription plan which has already paid off for me and now I feel like I actually own...
