The Raven Council

Nividia or ATI?

Coke or Pepsi?

Dogs or Cats?

I bought my copy from Play.com too. Absolutely fantastic game - I've played through the story once (not worrying about the riddles and other acheivements) - can't wait to go through it again and do all the extras. Apparantly, it's sold very well - it's nice to see and independent development studio ...

It's listed on Steam as containing "no additional DRM". It's being published by Eidos, and their recent releases haven't contained any horrible DRM monsters - so I'm hopeful.

The demo is on Steam and on XBox Live - no one really has an excuse to not give this a go.

Plus Harley Quinn rocks. Nuttier than a bag of nuts.

Is awesome.

I could kick goons in the face all day long.

It's a little simple, combat is basically spanking one button repeatedly, but the free-flowing animation is just jaw droppingly cool. You actually feel like Batman - you can sneak, glide, hang upside down and kick goons in the face.

You're a difficult man to find - whisper one of the officers if you want that invite

That's where I got a couple of good ones.

The downloads are rated so it's easy to pick up the best of the bunch

Awesome song on that video too

Anyone tried any of the custom maps?

I've tried a couple that seem pretty good.

Second on the nvidia > ati thing.

I would invest in a decent case, not only does it look nice, but makes building/upgrading much easier and can help in keeping the machine cooler (and therefore quieter). I have a Tsunami Thermaltake case, which is solid, aluminium (helps keep some of the noise inside), has scope for adding big, quie...

We're very hunter heavy at the moment, so I don't think we'd be in a position to guarantee raiding at this time. How important is raiding to you?

Christian Bale recently lost it at a lighting engineer on the set of Terminator 4.

This is the techno remix. Guest starring Barbara Streisand.

I'd say there's around 4 hours of playtime in there - depending on how many times you slip off a ledge and have to climb all the way back up again . You can probably squeeze a little more out of it if you bother hunting all the shiny relics which I couldn't be arsed with.

Very very short.

Very little replay value.

Story won't make any sense if you didn't play the previous game or 2.



Nice while it lasts though.

Been playing this a bit. It's a lot less fiddly and more fluid than previous Tomb Raider games. It still has frustrating moments - but that's part of the nature of the game, sometimes it's not clear where you should be going or what you should be doing. The Sonar-Map feature is entirely useless, and...

Mirror's Edge

It's a first-person free-running game. Basically leaping across rooftops while people try to shoot you. PC version isn't released for a couple of months yet, but the console version is.

With L4D, CoD5 and FarCry2 I'm left with no time to play GTA4. I might pick it up some day.

Plus Tomb Raider: Underworld, Mirror's Edge, Fallout 3 are all ahead of GTA4 in the next thing to play list.

Yeh, steam lets you give duplicate games as gifts.

I've got a HL2 and Ep1 spare too if anyone wants them.
