    Uncharted 2 is the bestlooking PS3 game. But it's kinda amazing what the Naughty-Dog team does with the powerhouse that is the PS4

    Sometimes, I'm really worried about the mental stability of the American society:

    One of the greatest strategy games temporarily banned. The game is a real masterpiece, I recommend it to everybody interested in the specific genre, since it provides a breath-taking experience and I am not easily impressed, I think.

    yes, that's rather silly, and no, the game while good, it's not as good as all that

    Well, it looks like Apple conceded. Anything more you can say about the game (tips and such)? I got it during the Steam summer sale but Ive been away for almost the past month so I havent been able to try it out yet.

    The AI is excellent. Of course, there's no great variety of scenarioes, but still it reacts almost perfectly when threatened, employing historically accurate tactics. I'll try to write a more informative review, if I find the time, but I definitely recommend it, as the only strategy game I ever played that actually demonstrates valid tactical manoeuvres.

    Looks like Age of Mythology is back.
    Mixed feelings about this, I loved the first game, it's what got me in strategy games, long before I discovered RTW, but its expansion was very underwhelming. They just added a totally imaginary faction (Atlantis) and introduced a new feature (Titans), which completely destroyed any essence of strategy.

    On the other hand, the first game was a true gem, I am still laughing with their humorous parody of the campaign story, during the credits. Anyone still remembering it?

    This looks amazing, the artwork is simply glorious. Never got hooked by the pixal-art hype (loved Lone Survivor though), but HD-pixels look stunning

    Nintendo hired 200 guys from the guys who made Xenoblade apparently to work on the new Zelda. That is good news as Xenoblade is the best jrpg ever made, period. Knowing Nintendo the new Zelda is going to be delayed for years because I expect them to overly polish their nails before they use a keyboard, but having the Xenoblade-developers in should be worthwhile wait.

    I know they aren't for me I guess, but really? Another Zelda? Can't they make it, you know, anything else? I stopped at Zelda II but I guess to each their own. v0v.

    This isndeed something to be excited about http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/20...ar-wars-movies

    KOTOR was great, I should have seen the plot-twist coming but I didn't, right up there with Darth Vader's reveal in the movies.
    KOTOR 2, a underdeveloped haste job with some very good ideas, complitely falls apart in the last hours. But being good or bad isn't as sraightforward

    But this looks great, if it actually looks like this oh my

    How's that? Do you mean the confusing area implementation/character conclusions? The main ending was quite good and entirely in line with the rest of the game thematically.

    Dunno, had to look up what it was all about. Maybe I should give it another try once the restoration-project is done

    Time to give it another try then. I realliy liked the ambiguity in KOTOR, good or wrong, you are basicly a vampire. Makes sense in that context to be evil as it just makes you stronger. Could never play an evil character in the first because it just doesn't make sense. I hope that in the next the 'good' choice can have horrible consequences, and you know it but you selishy do it anyway, your 'me so good' leading to destroying a planet something like that, just because you refused to do something evil

    Transport Fever will be out on November 8th!

    I just pre-ordered it on Steam with the 25% discount, and I usually never pre-order anything.
    Really like all the improvements they made over Train Fever regarding track and station building etc.
