The reason why Battlefront 3 was cancelled and decent SW games are no longer made; change of management. David Doak of Free Radical complains that people passionate about making games in LucasArts where replaced by psychopaths sometime in 2008. Their attitude was not conducive towards game...

So apparently LucasArts is run by psychopaths http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-05-04-free-radical-vs-the-monsters

Independence is different to wanting your territory to belong to a particular government.

I think the Argentine claim is a waste of time. What if the islands became independent (which they would prefer over Argentine control and be entirely within their)? The British would still be militarily and economically invested (probably even more so). Using "self determination" to...

Name: Cell Block Female Skill focus: pugilism, brawling and climb Gets the job done and/or dies.

I wonder how this would look and move in a tile based game, if Wasteland 2 uses tiles. The map is to scale, unlike Wasteland, so I guess this thing would have to traverse obstacles (it would silly for something so large to have move around smaller objects and critters). I'll be impressed if they...

This isn't Alien. The fear of alien rape probably won't play such a large part of the horror (at least not in the same way). And if you take away that scene then there's not a whole lot of splatter.

It probably should have been a musical. That would have been great.

It sounds like you're being a bitch, but I wasn't expecting the game to be good anyway. Actually, your complaint about slow pace makes me more hopeful, since the videos I've seen make it look too "in your face".

Going to bed is potentially more damaging than a terrorist attack? I'm fairly sure they have systems in place so they don't have to turn off the supply. Probably putting it into potential energy or something.

In Wasteland's case, the mechanics are so simple that you could call it phase based or turn based, though the interface suggests phase based.

Wasteland is faster paced than Fallout, because it only allows one action per character, per turn/pseudo phase. No AP management.

I don't see the walk or the quack, though Frozen Synapse looks closer to XCOM combat (just needs stats and bigger maps).

Why do so many people call Frozen Synapse turn based? It uses phases not turns. And I don't really see much XCOM here. None of the long periods of inaction, where you heard nothing but footsteps and doors openning and closing, suddenly interrupted by screams. The hide and seek feeling is more...

Yugoslavia's economic crisis was perhaps caused by the old guard's unwillingness to adapt, though I understand there was some reform during Tito's time. I think Tito's real successes in governing was preventing a Soviet backed Serbian coup and in obtaining Marshall aid. He was remarkable in...

My parents had a similar experience, but prefer it over current times and even the first world. Of course a consumer society has more stuff, so what? Yugos are cool.

But if you set out to lose money it's less embarrassing when the time comes.

Wasn't there only one year full scale development?

A heavily armed man fits in America much more than in Italy, though the hood looks funny in every setting.
