Provided Blizzard can actually give us a set release date. I'm just hoping it gets out before the end of the year at this point.


But yeah. Tali is > or = Boss. Why? Personality, voice, combat effectiveness, all that good stuff.

CoH is great... except the relic f*cking broke the Panzer Elite, and made it soo easy to win as Americans that I cry when I play against them. The game is just getting really boring, same old spam

Maybe for you. Not for me. I refuse to buy any of the Starcraft 2 games until all three campaigns are available in one collection; add to that some of the online limitations and I begin to hear the DRM clarions go off (then again I never gave a wooden nickel about Starcraft multiplayer; multiplayer in general disinterests me). As it stands I'm not going to buy Starcraft 2 at all. I detest what Activision has become and they are going to have to do a lot to convince me to spend money on their products.

For me GOTY awards mean little; my own personal GOTY is the only one that really matters to me personally. The forecast does not look promising for any other titles that I'm currently aware of, and interested in, in dethroning ME2. ME2 is not just GOTY 2010 for me, it is quite possibly one of the best, if not the best, game I have ever played (and I've been playing games since the C64 days).

Like words can't even describe the rush you can get if you play the game competatively. It straight up like, turns my brain to mush after playing long matches its so intense and requires so much concentration.

Dare I say, it is the perfect competative RTS. (pending minor balance issues)

As for hitting women, you shouldn't go around just hitting anyone. Children are too young to be so harsh with, but I don't like how women are allowed to be vile people simply because they're not liable to get retaliation. I don't advocate hitting them, but nor do I advocate hitting men either. But sometimes, people are really asking for it. Holding back for a women, but hitting a guy for the same thing doesn't help anyone.

Agreed.

Hah! It doesn't surprise me someone mentioned BGII. That was top contender along with Deus Ex. However, BGII's UI blows by today's standards. Yes, there is a mod that helps fix this but I'm not inclined to go dig through porous websites and tinker with it when the UI is unlikely to be as streamlined as the ones produced today and the game does show its age graphically. Storywise it's still a king though, but not the only king.

P.S. DA:O is also a top contender along with the ME games to date, IMO. BioWare has consistently delivered the goods and is one of the developers I have some amount of trust in. They are my favourite developer.

I'm not trying to be rude, but from a competative gameplay point of view, 1 week is not nearly enough time to determine that aspect yet. Determining the true depth of it's meta-game requires months of hardcore play to hone out.

Deus Ex weapon mods for ME3.

ANd yes BG2 is dated, but I judge a game for all it's merits, including how good it was then.

Deus Ex is #3

then Fallout 2.

And I will beat anyone with that stick formely up garrus's ass if they mention Half Life 2 or Halo in "best game ever" department.

Old news. Was covered several times in the past thread(s). Every party member, including Shepard, can be killed in ME2 so the implications are no more dire in that video than in any other. Besides, IIRC, the clip you see utilizes a mod in-game.

I HATE RTS games that are "rush-friendly". Like C&C series, Supreme Commander etc.

One of the few RTS games I enjoyed was Kohan:AG and Kohan II:KOW. Like the only RTS games where strategy mattered. Cutting of supply lines, flanking, ambushes, everything should have it's impact like it does in Kohan series.

I second that!

BG2 is the best for me. Even though my preference of BG2 is based solely on the fact that it was first, and I consider it tradition.

So if I had to quantify my  affection towards BG2, ME and any other game (1 being suckiest, 10 being godly) ti would be something like this

BG1+BG2+ToB - 10
ME1+ME2 - 9.9999
third best thing somewhere between 7 and 7.5

I feel the same thing about Star Trek...TNG 1st, DS9 2nd

BG1 wasn't as good as BG2, even for it's time.
 BG2 just had spectacular chrs, story, an amazing villian(something lacking from ME2) and fun side quests that had real depth to them.

and TNG? PSH, you mean 1001 ways for data to save the enterprise?

Give me TOS.

I dislike people using the three campaign arguments against the game. They had 2 expansions planned anyways. The only thing that changed was, instead of getting three half baked campaigns per game, you get 1 fully fleshed out race campaign per game. More than likely the two other campaigns will be priced as expansion packs. (probably $30) as they only feature a campaign and a couple new units per race for multiplayer. Just because you don't want to pay for more content, doesn't mean other people are more than willing.

If yo prefered them to keep it all to one campaign, well then, thats just unrealistic. All these modern RTS games have expansions these days, and expansions are enormous profits for the company. There's little reason for them not take advantage of the opportunity.

I hate activision as much as the next guy, but they aren't to blame for anything Blizzard is doing here. The only online limitation is the inability to choose your gateway. Which I can partially understand as it greatly limits lag and I'm certainly not going to talk down a company for trying (it won't work) to prevent piracy. They're still trying to figure out what do do with lan. Its possible, it might be in, but require that every lan player logs in to verify their copy. The only DRM the game has is that you need to be online the first time you install the game, and a cd key.

Now, I come to " (then again I never gave a wooden nickel about Starcraft
multiplayer; multiplayer in general disinterests me)" and I must say this isn't the game for you then. Which is fine, its not for everyone. They've certainly made strides to make it more accessible though. To be honest, I'm not sure why you're weighing in on this, if you don't like multiplayer.

On a side note, someone says we don't know if its competative yet, I agree, it hasn't been out long enough to judge that yet, but this is Blizzard we're talking about here. Hell, they released a patch for the original starcraft like 6 months ago. And that game has been out for 11 or 12 years. They are certainly dedicated to the competative aspect of their games, with the exception of WoW, but we won't go there. (talking more diablo/starcraft/warcraft teams)

Tell me about it Knight. I'm starting to lose interest in coming here, to be honest. Too much off topic discussion and narrow minded sarcasm for it to be the friendly place it was during 2.0

When the Tali discussion takes a back seat to the off topic discussion 90% of the time, the thread should be laid to rest.

Sad? Conversations exist to evolve. This is a natural evolution of things, it's also temporary.

Instead marvel at her ability to bring people to share their common interests with each other.



Are you guys serious? How many times can you post

"I love tali"
and "Keelah Selai"

before the point gets across?
