Now, now! Don't most of the men in that show drink on the job?
I'm tired of this being repeatedly said. Just because some people don't like it doesn't mean that people who like it are a minority. Even if they are, it also doesn't mean that their shouldn't be...
So far at least (I've just finished Blast Pit) there has always been ways to avoid the damage if you look around before carrying on. The machine guns in Office Complex for example either have...
Indeed, I've found I'm much better reading real signs! Although to be fair, in real life I'm not distracted worrying about head crabs trying to eat my face quite as much.
Anyway, perhaps if we...
I'm in the same boat as Victory. I was planning to support the Kickstarter, but it's just too expensive to get all of the tables. $50 is a huge amount of money compared to the pricing of things like...
I quite liked that bit, but I get where you are coming from as I walked past them a few times as well. After I found it though, I found I was blaming myself and not the game. They were, in hindsight,...
I'm relatively sure that Jake Solomon has mentioned in a couple of interviews that the game isn't grid based, but they've added a grid in the PC version because it makes more sense to play that way...
Yeah, I think you have to use the crouch jump lots more in this that the original too, which is a bit odd. Still though, I always liked the environmental jumping puzzles from the original. It...
I utterly adored The Stanley Parable, so this is fantastic news. The two videos are brilliant as well, mostly thanks to the brilliant voice over work by Kevan Brighting. Thanks for posting the...
Braid has a final level very much like that, it's really rather clever and worth playing.
We wouldn't necessary have gotten all three before this. After all, Reward 3 is Civ V which isn't that old a game! The only pre-order bonus they promised was the Elite Solider pack and they have...
Yeah, this was the first game which came to mind for me too. I was really surprised how well Bastion handled prejudice and the way it clouds people's memories of events. Added an extra layer to the...
I get really confused why people are so annoyed about things like stretch goals on Kickstarter. You are just getting more content that you first paid for and that's a good thing!
In this case you...
Yeah, Zen Pinball/Zen Pinball 2 on the not-pc box are brilliant. I've ended up downloading quite a few of the tables as they are designed to have tons of depth and different missions to play through....
The talk about stunt racing games reminds me that one of my favourite ever games seems to have been largely forgotten these days. Fatal Racing (or Whiplash in some places, I think) was an utter...
I really like the opening of Human Revolution, the attack and the Bond-style cut scene really set up the theme of the game for me. Plus it makes sense that you are a bit rubbish at stealth at the...
Oh yes, the opening to Beyond Good and Evil is brilliant too! Although, I don't think it is brilliant because of the boss fight, but rather the reaction of the media and military afterwards. It sets...
Oh yes! I remember just how insanely difficult that first mission was! You're right though, it was a brilliant first mission which really set up the feel of the game well.
This might sound really...
The story is really cool, but I remember this being pretty rock hard back when I played it on the Gamecube!
Anyway, I'll throw my hat into the ring and say that you should try HL2 as your first...
To be fair is it three, not that it really makes a huge difference. Mostly it suffers from the same problem as Trackmania did, though. If you let anyone make a map, some of them will be rubbish....
I was very excited about Ouya, but the more I think about it, the more I'm suspicious of the whole thing. So much so, I pulled back from putting any money into it. There are a bucket load of...
That does seem to be the case already, even with the smaller amounts of people playing. I played five or six different maps last night and they all felt surprisingly different to play. Plus, if you...
I was just playing the beta last night, and I have to say it feels much closer to Quake 3 and the original Unreal Tournament than I was expecting. The movement is very fast and fluid and it becomes...
Hehe, indeed! Actually, I'm quite excited to play the game again as I lost my original copy several moves ago. It's been ages and I loved the quirkiness of it!
