Brevik is the arsehole here. You know he has been practising that speech in the mirror whilst waiting until he was asked of his opinion. On the surface it might seem humble and reserved but it really isn't, it's probably one of the worst ways to be criticised, by the smiling, smug twat who has been rubbing his hands in anticipation in order to get a very sly dig in who then has the cheek to revel in past glories and praise himself shamelessly.
It's not like has done anything worthwhile since. Look at Runic Games, you don't hear them coming out with shit like that and at they have done something decent. Reply-2
A good reason why I won't shell out for anything 3D related game wise: Just saw Prometheus on IMAX 3D and out of 2 hours there was only a couple of scenes where 3D worked well, rest of it was just gimmicky, some of it actually was distracting Reply0
I'll tell you why you should, Diablo 3 cost me the princely sum of £22.97 from Amazon when I pre ordered in 2010 and I only paid for it on Friday when it was dispatched. Compare that to the £35+ that it has been going for recently, as well as the downright ridiculous £45 digital download direct from Blizzard and it doesn't really make sense to buy any other way.
Only reason to pre order from GAME is if they do an exclusive version and it's a game you love. Oh and if they do things the same way over there to pre order at a GAME retail store you put down like a £5, you don't pay in full. The site takes out money on dispatch too like most other online shops Reply+2
Love how people still moan about Diablo 3 being looking all rainbows and sunshine. Not a big fan of Blizzard but when they did that My Little Pony Diablo 3 t-shirt, wow, that was so good, just a big fuck you to all the whiners even to this day.
Don't know how you even start to compare engines that span 15 years for 'grime' and 'darkness'. Those countless stupid D3 screenshot recolours that show nothing but what some wannabe designer can do with a few filters in PS are brilliant, crack me up even now.

I think we all know where this is going. Soon they'll be watching you through your webcams to see if you have furiously circumvented website bans, seeing if you infringe copyright by zooming in on the reflection off your beady eyes. Reply+4

Female Shepard is just a poseur. Not only was the default female model in the first two games really bad, every custom face you could create, be they female or male were also appalling especially compared to the ultimate default male Shepard.
And although the voice acting is good for female character it's got nothing on proper Shepard, case in point being the "Commander Shepard is a Jerk" videos. Nothing better than strutting around in the best outfit, the brown space leather fashion monstrosity and being a huge twat. Male Shepard just has a better range especially with the Renegade options as a lot of them are delivered with brilliant comedic poise where female Shepard goes goes for "bad ass" all the time and the comedy of some of the lines doesn't shine through nearly as well.
I know, I know, this is like going into a Tali thread and saying she sucks (Quarians are annoying, if I was more of a heartless twat I would've let the Geth win instead of brokering peace between them) but it has to be said, LONG LIVE ULTIMATE SHEPARD! Reply-12
The game is just not fresh or innovative enough to last more than a year or so, they just didn't have the balls to bring something new to the table. Whilst the voice over was good, I played 2 characters to 50, once you hit level cap it's pointless not to mention it's not exactly new to have a load of fully voiced cut scenes in a Bioware game.
There are plenty of features you would expect a game that has had so much money spent on it and been in development for a number of years to have which are missing or inadequate. The game engine is a dog. PvP, especially the "Open World PvP" of Ilum is an appalling gear grind. Class balance and updates are poorly thought out (I'm sorry, the hybrid Sage/Sorcerer build is some of the worst class balance I've ever seen, it should never have made it into the game and it still isn't fixed). HutBall might as well be called ForceBall.
Empire side has had a lot more love poured into it than the Republic from areas such as:
- Republic fleet is Empire fleet coloured brown and yellow, you can even see Empire flag reflections...
- Mirrored class skills having advantage on Empire side (Smuggler flash CD is 90 seconds whilst Operative CD is 60...)
- Class stories and starter planets a better experience on Empire
- Most of the costumes for Republic are recoloured horrible messes
Crafting is just... so pointless, half the skills are useless and the other half aren't as good as Biochem.
For people who don't play as often as me and are still level 20-30 then this game is probably fantastic, and there are a lot more people like that than myself but I don't understand why they couldn't of rocked the boat a bit because I really cannot see the game being more appealing than some of the releases coming out in the next year.
If it wasn't a Star Wars game I probably wouldn't even have subscribed past the first month, actually I might not even have got it in the first place and I think that says it all. Reply+3
I like the part about variation, because GAME is so good at that. You got Top 20 for each console, bigger pre owned section then new, maybe Top 10 PC games and everything is overpriced.
All the people who only shop there or on the high street, I feel sorry for you as you are getting the shaft. If GAME did die, and it looks like it will, they are probably doing you a favour.
What happens when consoles focus on DD? It is inevitable. Don't see a lack of PC games coming out do you?
