It's Orangy-Kun. A play on a character from an anime with a small plotline related to oranges.
Geass brothers. <3
May we be best friends.
The original PC Fallout was my second intro to RPGs after Chrono Trigger. I thought the first was a masterpiece. Fallout 2 was good, but not quite as enjoyable. Fallout 3 is one of my favorite games ever and Ill never give NV a chance 1) I dont have a high powered PC and 2) Ive never like Obsidian ever since they fucked up KOTOR2 on OG 'Box.
Because it's typical Nintendo gameplay. polished and refined, but with zero room for player agency
Well you gave it your best shot.

Well it's more boring than bad really. Not very deep at all like most Nintendo games.

This is not later levels of Galaxy. You are playing Sonic Generations.
Just finished the first Bioshock. I was a lot more wow'd by it in 2007, of course, that was 6 years ago, so it's understandable. It really loses steam after the big twist is revealed, and by about 85% in I was just ready for it to end, but it's still a great game, but maybe over time it's not held up to the standards I set before it.
Still, 6 days.
Still, 6 days.
I was able to get New Vegas running at decent settings on a laptop with an i3 processor and integrated graphics. You really should give it a shot, even if you have a bit of a grudge against the company. Anyone that enjoyed the first two Fallout games should feel the same about New Vegas.
Oh come on man. Its just fucking Obsidian.
If it makes you feel any better Im a real big Kane & Lynch 2 fan.
XD lol

Did you ever try galaxy 2? I had similar qualms with the original but galaxy 2 filled those gaps and started off better.

The 8 for Uncharted 3 turned out to be pretty on the money as well... and the Double Dash 7.9
Funny how these sobering reviews tend to be stand the test of time.
Not this game though. Any review less than 11/10 will be from people who just don't understand.
I find it to be an awesome avatar. It's the one I settled on and promised to never, ever change.
It disguises my love for my favorite anime behind a relatively obscure reference. To everyone else, it's a weird looking fruit. Or a donut with eyebrows apparently.
By the way, when should those of us who got this game via an AMD code expect our Steam key? I presume it'll be when the preload goes up.

Couldn't agree more about UC3. It was like having one too many cheesy gordita crunches. Yeah, it's Taco Bell, yeah, it's delicious, I've just...I've had enough.

I liked the atmosphere/setting and the gameplay was fun enough. The twist was okay. I didn't really notice that massive drop in quality after the twist that everyone mentions but I also never placed it on the same pedestal as GAF did. It was a good game with an interesting and unique idea didn't think of it more than that.

Well, this is a Bioshock thread so it's only right that the old wars from 2007 rage on.
Everyone knows Call of Duty 4 was the best game of 2007.

Wait, didn't Crysis come in 2007, too
There were a lot of quality FPS titles in 2007. Must've been something in the water that year.

This guy gets it
People always forget The Darkness.
I still smile about some of my favorite franchises starting out that year...
BioShock
Mass Effect
Assassin's Creed
Crysis
Portal
And so forth.

COD 4 was pretty good when it first came out.
Too bad they've been releasing those mission packs every year since then.
It was probably #2 behind Mass Effect, back when both series had limitless potential.
Man COD 4 was great though. I have no shame admitting that at all.

I'm not even gonna pretend I didn't play the fuck out CoD4 back in '07. Say what you want about the yearly sequels and how they've impacted other game development, but I thought MW was a legitimately great, slick, addicting shooter, in a year that wasn't lacking for great shooters.
2008, yo.
Call of Duty 4 was incredibly innovative. Stuff like the AC-130 mission, the sniper mission with Capt. Price, the run through Chernobyl (STALKER, too), the Nuke. All pretty ground-breaking shit.
Still so long ago.
Where's Mirror's Edge 2, DICE? WHERE IS IT?!
Without Riccitiello, there's probably no chance of it seeing the light of day.
I got into the first one with the complete mod for a while but I stopped for some reason. I keep telling myself I'll get back to it one day but if I haven't by now I probably never will.
