Reply to Might & Magic X on the way in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="Glazunov1" reply="8" id="3334643"] We're being told it will be faithful to the older titles. We'll see. At least they know where we're coming from. [/quote] I believe the same was said about Fallout 3. Atleast that is what I read on NMA. The end result was....not faithful to the old series. A fansite of Heroes of Might & Magic that I follow are sure to be overjoyed by these news. As for myself, since I have no history with M

All I've seen of some old Might & Magic game was the beginning and that must have been released in the 90'ies. It had this old style which I don't want to play. Dragon Age style would bra great :)

Reply to EA hands-out a 'freebie' as apology for SimCity problems in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="bonscott" reply="20" id="3332085"] To read these stories about how someone else in the region can totally screw your city over...I just can't fathom how this is fun. I want to build *my* city the way *I* want it and if it gets screwed it's my fault, not because some doofball wants to be funny and mess my city up. It's the new "griefing". Cements for me even more why I swore off this game (and EA completely) and didn't buy it as a good idea.

No I'm talking about Baldurs Gate II. Perhaps I thought it was dragging on due to no text....I remember there was quite some text from all the guys I released though now that I think about it, it may have been one to two minutes of text instead of five ^^

The owner and the woman is not related but she is the type that's like: "I think we should do like this [explains]". The owner mostly explains before everyones step what the active player should do and how the zombies will move which in practice gives you one way to do things.... Once, we moved together and he said I should open a door for him. I said I haven't killed anything yet and then he goes: "UH-UH-UH you could have asked if someone wanted to play

Reply to Heart of the Swarm comes out today!!!!!!!!!! in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Back in 1999, 2000 and 2001, StarCraft was THE game for me. Played it every day after school and liked it. Actually I liked it so much that I thought that only the successor would be the next big thing in RTS games. All I wanted was the WarCraft III UI and I would be set. Fastforward 8 years and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is here! Not only did I get it 6 months after the release, I also realized that I didn't like it. It was a bit of a slap in the face mo

I say that AAA titles might be selling less but that is not important to me since I'm not buying them anyway (with very few exceptions). Steam and other DD services are selling great and the indiescene is thriving. Link those articles so we can see if they're valid or not.
