A few years back, due to work and family commitments, I started to find I had a lot less time for gaming and longed for a game(s) that you could just jump into and play without the need for grouping, interaction, etc. I figured all that nonsense was…
OK, f_ck it... I'm sold!
Least I defo like GW2 (and I blew £130 on it) if this doesn't float old Aryas' MMO boat.
See you in game; I'll be the one getting pwned by inanimate objects most likely.

OMFG this sounds like a wet dream to the power 10!!!
This strikes me as a really innovative game on a number of levels, the most obvious being the setting.
I'm VERY tempted to try this game but have kinda been put off by reports that it's ve…

I'd be curious to know where you're seeing this over…

More interesting would be to see the number of people who continued playing it after the first hour of play. Everyone I know except one person uninstalled the game very quickly. The one…
Gutted; I was looking forward to this one immensely.
Why is it the decent games seem to get canned yet there is friggin' tons of shite coming out daily?
I've had Dildo III on pre-order for months now, and despite some of the lame things I've heard I'll still get it even if it's just for nostalgia value. To me it looks like cack - basically a proper dated game that's been tarted up in the graphics de…
I think there are a number of reasons games are going this way.
1. Combat is crap
This is the main reason I think. Basically fighting mobs is boring and formulaic and offers no satisfaction whatsoever. As a result players do not want…
I'd like to see a category for 'Biggest Loss of the Year', for games that were shut-down or the dev folded, despite being good. I think these games deserve recognition.
Sometimes these games disappear because of fundamental design flaws or oth…
Originally posted by Starpower It will quickly become mundane and repetitive. Just like the latest "thing" in Rift with the "dynamic" content.
Just like with RIft it's something new and refreshing. That feeling too will fade away after a month…
Based on what I know so far, I'm definitely trying this game.
So it's Funcom and the screwed up in the past; who hasn't?
TBH I'd rather risk 50 bucks on this than any of the other crap due for release (GW2 aside).
I actually think …

The source of agility in small, start-up companies is:
a) Few employees - Effective org-wide communication is much easier and where consensus needs to be sought it can be reached far quicker as there are less people to consult.

What a shower of sh!t.
Can't even be bothered to fully read an essay that slates a game the author hasn't even played yet.
Says more about the guy writing it than it does about the game tbh.
The word 'ghey' was invented for stuff …
Some thoughts:
People love novelty, which is why ‘app’ games for phones and Facebook are popular atm. You can buy them cheap so you don’t feel cheated if they’re crap and they’re very accessible.
When WOW came out, it intro…
WOW is cookie cutter fantasy gaming - the fact it's lore and setting is generic and simple is what makes it accessible to so many.
SWTOR is niche.
Star Wars makes big bucks at the box office because there are very few comparable space sc…
