    Hellgate London: Coming Soon!

    I'm in Australia. I... imagine... the pings... might... be... awesome... {/nda} Just like the game itself... in... a... hypothetical... situation?

    How is Tabula Rasa?

    It's true. The chain and Leech guns are completely useless with regards to damage/cost. (Leech gun is worse in both aspects, too) I imagine it won't take long for that to be addressed, as the imbal there is just too obvious. When it is, boy... chaingun here I come, since even though they're...

    How is Tabula Rasa?

    Yeah, use the Beta Forums. The playsession times are there, even translated into various major playzones (US Central, Australia, Europe). I'm finding more depth in Tabula than I had originally seen. Lord (General) British even appeared in the server and fielded a few quick questions, and...

    How is Tabula Rasa?

    Dunno. I was thinking about TR today, as I pre-ordered both it and Hellgate: London, and it hit me! The two games are set to have a whole crap-heap of similarities. Third-person shooter MMORPG games, dying of armours, quick-paced action, resistance bases... Maybe Tabula's hurried launch...

    How is Tabula Rasa?

    Tabula Rasa is Awesome Now, it's a beta, yes, buggy, yes, lacking content, definately, but it's still awesome. I think the third-person shooter MMO is a good sample of how the control interface of such upcoming joys as Hellgate: London might work, and I can say I'm really looking forward to...

    PC Bioshock Demo

    The demo, after finishing it, made me place my pre-order through STEAM not a minute later. Couldn't not, but man... for as long as the demo was... the full game is a whole lot longer.

    BioShock - DX9 vs. DX10

    8800GTS here. Everything maxed out, without even fine-tuning the card! Runs a dream, without even so much as a frame lost in the most hectic of battles.

    Bioshock = Must Buy

    If you don't own it... GO! NOW! Bioshock... simply amazing. Well deserving of the 95%s it's been getting. Sure, some folks finish it in less than the prescribed 20 hours, but have they really played the game and seen all there is to offer? Rarely. Heck, replayable FPS. How often do we...

    Mobile gaming preferences

    DS Ftw I've owned both, and can happily say that both are incredible systems, but work for completely different gamer-styles. The PSP, I found, is all about the flashier games that you can happily sit down and play for hours at a time. You have your movies, your homebrews, MP3's for when ye...

    Tabula Rasa- Slaughtered

    MMOFPS How many have there been? I'm interested to see how such a system will pan out, and how successful it is. Still, with Hellgate London coming out less than a month afterward... similar playstyle (hunters) and free to play... what lies in store for RGTR?
