Meh. Do kids play games too much? definitely. Is this a new problem? no. Before handheld device, they would just sit in front of the TV all day. There are always people who will say that ´what you are wasting your time one is a waste of time´... in fact, some people may say that about...

Also to add, the game they cancelled ´Titan´ was set to be almost a Sims-type game. It definitely had some combat system, but the majority of the gameplay, and where you spent time would be very similar to playing the Sims.

I don´t think they are going to do a WC4 RTS. I think their corporate philosophy now is to get a game into every genre possible. Possibly after SC2 has run it´s course, but I doubt they will do a WC RTS until after SC2 is over. Look at their latest lineups A Card game A MOBA A team fortress...

Most browser games that are up now are very much pay2win. They put very harsh restrictions on what you can do in a day unless you pay for more ´energy´. I am playing a rather good game right now called Illyriad. It is basically a city builder MMORPG but it has a looong playtime, unlike most...

Unity is free and you can make some really good games with it, from any genre, but you are going to have to learn a lot. There are also a ton of free art assets available for it and others that are very cheap.

Sega Genesis. Actually it was the only time when I was playing games where I felt the need to play something that was better than a computer game. Some of the sports games were done really well. there was a golf game that was excellent. Nintendo had a lot of the platform games, but they...

Depends on the genre.. action games like sports, racing or platformers are better on consoles. RPGs ( even action RPGs) are generally better on the computer as well as most sim type games. twitch-games - consoles anything else - PC.

I think everyone should download and try one of the original Zorks. At the time, they were mostly all you had, text adventure games so they felt almost normal ( there were a ton of clones at the time). But if you tried to play one now, it would seem all funky.

Civilization 3 - just tons of replayability and you can make very long games Skyrim (or earlier ESO) - Open world RPG with 100s of hours of gameplay. Dungeons and Dragons Online - close, almost went with WOW, but DD0 has better replayability with different classes which have very...

The original Zork, a game called 9 Princes in Amber and I think the first Wizadry game.

Are we talking about the same game? Space combat, offline skill system? There is no ´work for it´.. you simply set which skill you want to raise and it raises over time, in real time even if you are offline.. There is nothing you can do to alter it The only ´work for it´ is that you had to...

I´ve been in the alpha for about 8 months now. To answer someone else´s comment. I think shared exp was added to prevent a lot of griefing and keep it more team oriented rather than everyone acting on your own. In LOL, it was hard to have varying tactics because someone would always be...

Games I am looking out for that do not end in a number The Forest Star Citizen Repopulation.

I said this a year before launch. I knew TESO was going to have problems just because of the two different groups of players who were going to join. There were going to be a huge amount of people coming from the single player games, especially Skyrim who would want open-world, slow...

I don´t really drift from one MMO to another. I played UO from about launch until the Age of Shadows expansion, which was about 5-6 years. I then bounced a bit trying AC, then EarthnBeyond before settling into WOW shortly after launch. WOW is definitely a great game, but it has never...

The problem with Rift is that it was a WOW-clone without really a lot new to offer. A lot of people played it because it was new.... and then.. newer WOW-clones came on the scene. They are all good games, and all have a few new features that makes them worth playing, but it doesn´t take...

I like the premise of EVE, and definitely was a spiritual successor to games like ELITE.. but if you got in after the first 2 years, you were forever going to be a sheep. There is no catchup mechanism and the skill system assures that you always be behind. I think WOW has gone too far in the...

haha, that is a great tool. For me, it is very small because I usually only buy games I am about to play. I rarely get suckered into buy sales of games I wasn´t really interested in.

It is hard to go with anything but Skyrim for this category. I think GTA did a good job also, but Skyrim is more a world simulator than a game. The main quest is something you can easily ignore.

Freelancer is similar to the game Elite, and really is what EVE was shooting for. I remember it well, it was a great game and had great pacing for progression... you felt like you always had something to do next. I think Star Citizen also is going to offer similar styles, but obviously with...
