GPG blames Impulse for the network issues that Demigod had at launch. I was actually pretty sure it was the fault of Gamestop and other retailers who sold the game a few days early and forced Stardock to get the servers ready for real-use loads before they thought they would have to. But whatever.
Looks like it airs on Ion every day at 5 pm Eastern. Dunno if you get that channel.
[quote who="kryo" reply="3" id="2006986"]It may be interesting to note that all of the planets in the game "universe" are already colonized by humans, and likely will be well after you leave.[/quote] This is obviously true, since every planet has a local militia you have to defeat, but it doesn't explain why your population always starts at zero when you colonize a planet anew.
There's no law that says you can only work for one company at a time.
What a farce. Three of the five games are also console games, and in two cases (F3, GTA4) it shows. This isn't a good representation of PC gaming. If these were the kinds of games I wanted to play, I wouldn't be a PC gamer. Sins is the only proper PC game on the list.

[quote who="General Homsar" reply="16" id="1948489"]I really don't like this trailer. The ridiculously fast "music", sparse dialogue, and flashes of combat (which didn't give me a sense of what was going on) make it seem like yet another adreneline-filled action-fest, and nothing like ST. And what's with the car in the opening shot? It looks like a 50's Cadilac. Don't get me wrong, I love those, but isn't this movie set in the future? [/quote] <

I was (and am) concerned about FO3, because I really don't like Oblivion or Bethesda. I'm not as crazy as the NMA guys - most of my qualms stem from Oblivion, not from FO3's differences from FO1 and 2. To sum up very briefly, my issues with Oblivion are the awful leveling system (which in FO3 is replaced by SPECIAL, so no problem there), the awful AI (which you say is good in FO3, so I'm hopeful, I guess), the level scaling (I've read a bit about FO3's revamped level scaling - how is
