WTF is Dungeon Overlord? :)

I got into this for a month or so along with a couple guys in the office. At first it seems like you only need to play it a few minutes a day but once you have 5 or 6 dungeons on the go the micromanagement is insane. Minimum of an hour every day to keep things ticking over but I probably was...

What will you do when you get angry while playing video games?

My family have come to know BFBC2 as 'Lucky ****' You can probably guess why......

Bioware employees creating fake DA2 reviews on metacritic

Do the user reviews on Metacritic use a 'weighted average' system like IMDB? Surely this would diminish the effect of stat padding of these sorts?

My PC went bang...whilst turned off :(

Please don't make me doubt my sanity! Yes I'm sure it was real, fortunately, since there was a pleasant smell of unhappy burning electronics afterwards. I opened the PSU up since it's not under warranty any more... I can't see anything wrong with the caps, nor any scorch marks. Motherboard...

My PC went bang...whilst turned off :(

So I was happily dozing off next to my PC, until I was awoken by a bang. I'd just shut it down and climbed into bed. I fall asleep very quickly so I wasn't fully concious, but I'm pretty sure there was a whining noise that got increasingly louder before the bang. After testing things (this...

Battlefield 3 64 Players on PC only and Jets confirmed

I never used to like playing against jets so I used to just stick to maps that didn't have them. I used to play competitive BF2 so I never used to see them in matches anyway, hence I didn't need to learn how to cope. Can't wait for this either case, even though it'll probably be borderline...

Steam vs Retail pricing...get with it steam(possible rant)

It's funny, you reminded me of my (lack of) experience with Awakening. I loved the original Dragon Age and was very happy the expansion was coming out. I bought the original on Steam. When I tried to buy the expansion, I noticed it was 30% more on Steam than other retail channels. I figured...

tf2 Kritzkrieg or Ubber?

This. Average demoman on public servers is terrible, and spends his day setting massive traps that nobody ever crosses. KK soldier has huge burst damage potential, and between the average soldier vs average demo, the soldier is far more likely to do the right thing when charged. TF2 like many...

tf2 Kritzkrieg or Ubber?

In my opinion, I think there's much more opportunity for game-changing things to happen in your favour when you're using the uber. That's not to say kritz is by any means useless, but many public games get stuck at some bottleneck. The average pubber (on the receiving end of the charge) is far...

Unbelievable BFBC2 Vietnam Gameplay video

Don't a handful of the rifles yield a 1 body hit kill if you're within 40 yards with the magnum upgrade in vanilla?

what's your "fallback" game?

Competitive games can make me rage... in recent history if I've been playing BFBC2 for a couple hours and every map I've been on I'm on the losing team, despite being the top scorer on the server. This makes me unhappeh :'( World of Warcraft works for me, queue up on dungeon finder and go...

Unbelievable BFBC2 Vietnam Gameplay video

My best guess is that in the cases of him 'knowing' where enemies are, it's a case of it being a very common place for enemies to approach from, or he heard them coming. Probably a bit of both. I'd like to say 'I can do that!' but I'm awful with choppers and his para jumping moves are...

I put a LOT of time into Settlers 2.... Lovely time sink of a series.

Why does a 4 fps drop seem so bad?

I'd agree with the notion that a sub-30fps isn't really acceptable for most gaming, and you're seeing first hand why. However, isn't there something to be said that a 6fps drop from 30fps is a 20% decrease? You'd probably notice a drop to 48fps from 60fps

From MW2 to BC2

I always thought one frustration in BC2 lies in being new and not understanding the situation in game, nor how to use it to your advantage. I played alongside my friends who were both pretty bad newbies, and they'd often attempt to take cover in completely irrelevant places with exposed flanks...
