    Is episodic gaming a joke?

    I don't think it's the content's fault, I think it's the implementation of the episodic scheme that's currently failing, largely as a result of what I see as varying interpretations of the basic concept of episodic content. For most of us, including myself, episodic content means that every...

    Remember when thread?

    Not that I very often seek out opportunities to look dumb, it just seems that way. Anyway, why was the "remember when" thread closed?

    Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

    Dark Messiah is a one-trick pony, but it does that trick very well. The combat is extremely visceral, and while most games capture little or none of the intensity and "feel" of hand-to-hand combat, Dark Messiah absolutely nails it. If the fantasy setting gives you the impression that this is in...
