Rune



**********spoiler for what it's worth***********



I know the ending makes it clear you were dead all along, but I loved that game. I wish they would have updated it.
 
International Karate + (Amiga)
Last Ninja (C64)
Mechwarrior 4 (PC)

Dang it, I gave in to temptation to glance thinking it'd be a minor spoiler, it's not.

The [ spoiler ] tags are probably better for a big one.

What he did really isn't much different than if he used the actual tags, is it? I mean if you're curious then neither one would have stopped you from checking. IMO he made plenty of effort to warn there was a spoiler, but you decided to roll the dice on what KIND of spoiler it was. Nothing he really could do to stop that.
 
Goin oldschool here.

Flashback
BladeRunner
Omikron
Outcast
Unreal (unreal 2 does not count)
Airfix dogfighters

that is all.

Wow I didn't think anyone would mention Rune or Drakan!! Also Blade of Darkness, that game was amazing....

@ anyone that wanted a sequel to Giants: Did u play Armed + Dangerous? (kind of a spiritual sequel)
@ anyone that wanted a sequel to Titan Quest: While not a true sequel a bunch of the developers from Iron Lore formed a new company (Crate Entertainment) and are making a game similar to Titan Quest (Grim Dawn).
 
i loved rune. i didn't finish the single player but multiplayer was freakin awesome... lobbing gigantic hammers and splattering people and those huge fucking swords hacking away... freaking awesome.

Bioware is finally admitting that DA2 sucked. Who knows if DA3 will actually be an improvement or if this is just PR to try to bring back some disgruntled Dragon Age fans, but I doubt they'll make the same mistakes again. At least I hope not.

Thank you for that link. It's refreshing to hear, and does give me hope towards Bioware setting things right with DA3.

Apart from the gameplay mistakes made with DA2, I hope they also recognize that DA:O needs a real/direct sequel. There were major cliffhangers, in particular after Witch Hunt. It never made any sense to me not to build upon those in DA2.

EDIT: just finished ME1+2. Apart from the fact that I enjoyed it nearly as much as DA:O, the bridging between ME1 and ME2 also goes to show that bridging to a sequel can be done right.
