Bought Tie Fighter even if i had it original here, but it's on floppy disk (with Defender Of The Empire and Enemies Of The Empire) and i don't have a floppy drive anymore. Just hadn't time to play it yet, hope it will work with my Xbox 360 controller.

I see people in comments recommend joystick(?!) for smooth gameplay, drop a word if you can get it running with xbox controller (I'm sure it will work, with xpadder at least). Did you finished it before? They say it's super hard.

My collection now includes KotOR (wo-hooo), when it came out I could only get my hands on 'unofficial' version, now I've repaid my debt to Lucas crowd


Hoping for KotOR II and rest of Monkey Island (still missing Curse for my collection, 4th title is soo... meh).

^ Curse of Monkey Island is my favorite out of the Monkey Island franchise. The Animation is top notch and the voiced characters are perfect.

I miss my LucasArts point and click adventure games. I still have failed to play Grim Fandango, so I can always go back to that.

Chemical Brothers: "A Journey to Planet Dust" point and click adventure game.

Mine too. Nothing beast Murray and pirate song part was hilarious and was in my head for months after playing.
Ah, so many little jokes in there... Lactose intolerant volcano?

Wipeout has regenerated!!! Former Wipeout devs starting up a new game called Formula Fusion bringing Wipeout back to its roots, mixing in some Blade Runner grittiness, and going places the fanbase always wanted them to go. The Designers Republic are on board for the visual design. Original soundtrack being created by Dub FX and CoLD SToRAGE (writer of much of the music of the first two games), and the devs are interested in bringing in The Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Aphex Twin and more (jump to 10:15).

R8 Games are being incredibly open with the community on Facebook and on WipeoutZone and they're planning to bring so many features to the game - even stuff like racetrack editors - as long as there's enough funding and interest in the project. They're doing a Test Pilot Program sign up (basically beta testing) that will get you a pre-release and 25% off the final game, that they're using to show investors how interested people will be. They're also doing a Kickstarter and if you really want to go deep, you can even buy shares in the company for 300 quid each. Additionally, some touring is being done through certain UK universities to talk about AG racing and its evolution, and CoLD SToRAGE/Dub FX are doing a concert later in the month in May for a pre-launch party. This is definitely worth backing - especially if we can make it big enough for The Chems to donate a song to! (especially an instrumental of This Is Not A Game)

Their website is http://www.r8games.com and it isn't up yet, but the Kickstarter, Test Pilot Program and company shares will be available there "tuesday next week". In the meantime their Facebook page is great about updates.

I must sound like a commercial, but I'm really excited about this and the more people who get involved the more amazing this game is going to be. All racing game enthusiasts should be excited about this!

There are so many moments where I wish I had video record for Grand Theft Auto 4

Me too ! And now, thanks to NVidia's Shadowplay, I can ^^ And thanks to my new fiber connection I can stream stuff too.

Btw, if you guys wanna see what Evolve looks like (the new game from the Left 4 Dead developpers) here's a stream I did... In French, so you can practise your French at the same time !



I had a great time during the beta, and I can't wait for the game to come !

In other news, I spent most of my day trying to get a torrent of Assassin's Creed Unity (I bought it on Steam but can't play it before it's unlocked, tomorrow), only to find out that my fairly high end PC is a little light to run the game... So yeah, I just ordered a GTX 980, which is the best graphics card you on the market (if you exclude the 2000€ Titan Z...)

You sure your card is not enough for unity?
I guess you didn't try running in, since it's not out yet, you base that on recommended configuration?

I've been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition for a month now, and I'm having a great time!
Some characters are really well done, game itself is beautiful and engaging, story is hilarious and sad at times, and it can be stretched over 100 hours of gameplay (just party banter is over 5h long!), feat that is quite hard to accomplish these days, for a single player RPG, that is.
One might point out some flaws in combat mechanic (like knight-enchanter class), but it wasn't a big deal to me.
Definitely a game of the year for me and a nice distraction until Witcher 3 arrive, that I bought almost a year ago and STILL have to wait a few months more... Damnit...
