___________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 2:54pm - Slag nli ""] I bet DNF was planned to be the first "FPSRTSMMORPG with an immersive story, real choices and intense and realistically modelled driving scenes in an exquisitely rendered model of San Fransisco." |
________________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 2:54pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Oof. That looks amazing. FML. Hexes? I don't know to be pissed that I don't have a machine that can run this, or pissed that once I do I won't leave my house for a month. |
___________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 2:57pm - arktouros ""] you might get a PC as a purple heart for getting married, who knows |
________________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 2:59pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Hahaha... So, basically a mistress right off the bat. LOL |
____________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 3:00pm - arilliusbm ""] Age of Wonders > civ |
________________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 3:10pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Totally different genres |
____________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 3:36pm - arilliusbm ""] I love both games. but age of wonders > all pc games ever. Yes, I'm in love |
___________________________________ [Feb 23,2010 3:45pm - Lich_King ""] Ooooh, LOVE Civilization. I'm in. |
___________________________________ [Sep 29,2010 2:30pm - arktouros ""] This is THE BEST CIV ever and easy to get away with playing most of the day at work, it turns out. |
____________________________________ [Sep 29,2010 2:46pm - arilliusbm ""] I was going to say Age Of Wonders > Civ but it looks like some asshole already did |

_______________________________ [Sep 30,2010 9:50am - Mutis ""] Shit, the fist civ game almost made me flunk out of high school. |

____________________________________ [Sep 30,2010 10:04am - arktouros ""] civ games are all about presentation. i thought 4's interface was severely cluttered and the transfer to 3D felt uncomfortable. it was tough to tell exactly where your resources were going and combat was sort of a joke. 5's UI is totally redesigned, the transfer to a hex grid makes plotting land and moving easier to grasp, city-states are introduced which are different than empires and you have to deal with them seperately. the land looks a lot more believable, the special resources are more important, it just seems like you're able to control everything that goes on at once, finally. diplomacy actually works this time. it's not like they made the game easier or anything, civ 4 just felt too abstract. |
_____________________________________ [Sep 30,2010 10:09am - arilliusbm ""] hmm. thanks. I shall have to check it out. I need to send you AoW too.. you'd love it. |
____________________________________ [Sep 30,2010 10:31am - arktouros ""] i have too many strategy games to play. SC2, Company of Heroes, W40k Dawn of War 2, Emperor: Battle for Dune, Civ5... |
_____________________________________ [Sep 30,2010 10:50am - arilliusbm ""] I haven't played Sc2 in a month. :( |
___________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 9:49am - arktouros ""] goddammit, i love this game. the music and civilopedia just rule. i still have to play age of wonders. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 10:05am - arilliusbm ""] arktouros said:goddammit, i still have to play age of wonders. check out AoW Shadow Magic after AOW1. very challenging but engrossing game. Let me know if you end up liking AoW and want to play online. Herugrim mike and I play sometimes and chris as well. Fun and epic as fuck. |
____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 10:26am - arktouros ""] how is AoW II? should i spring for the trilogy pack, or just get the first one...first one is only 6 bucks. i thought i got this before but i guess not. |
____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 10:27am - arktouros ""] the screenshots look awesome. |
_______________________________ [Oct 13,2011 10:40am - Yeti ""] NERDS!! |
_______________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 10:43am - the_reverend ""] http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/siegecraft/id468569981?mt=8 have you tried that? |
____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 11:01am - arktouros ""] i don't know if that's a shot at my ancient 3g or not, but nah i don't really do portable/phone games. i am looking forward to the playstation vita though. |
__________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 11:06am - reimroc ""] EUIII has been good to me |
____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 11:32am - arktouros ""] i just bought AoW II. i bought EUIII a while ago on sale, i'll try that out this week |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 11:45am - arilliusbm ""] AOW II is boring and was a bad follow up. Shadow magic was the real one. First one is untouchable. Best of the series. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 11:46am - arilliusbm ""] Buy the first one. |
____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:18pm - arktouros ""] I read the AoW II reviews and it just looked more appealing. I can't keep buying these games I'll never play! |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:28pm - arilliusbm ""] Id recommed not playing II at all. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:32pm - arilliusbm ""] Ill tell you right now that II will make you think the series is boring. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:35pm - arilliusbm ""] You chose poorly. Should have paid the 6 bucks. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:41pm - arilliusbm ""] your arrested. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 13,2011 12:52pm - arilliusbm ""] the arillius council hereby sentences you to 30 days of hard labor in CITY 17 |
____________________________________ [Oct 14,2011 8:01am - arilliusbm ""] *mobilizes army of lizardmen* oh wait, you got the wrong game. |
___________________________________ [Oct 14,2011 8:03am - arktouros ""] hahahaha, goddammit. it just crashes to desktop on my work pc. |
____________________________________ [Oct 14,2011 8:07am - arilliusbm ""] In all seriousness, I can send you the .iso of aow1. Its small. |
______________________________ [Oct 14,2011 9:09am - ark ""] just put it on the rapidoshares |
