Half expected i guess but disappointing all the same. I hate it when games slip!

Nah,its perfect.
Let us hope they put more dev time on it,and release it in march.!!!

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

That game is going to be absolutely incredible! Half the reason I bought a 360!

I' ll get it after 1st patch is released

Be careful or ill patch your ass!

Bioware is the best RPG developers,period.

They made their first games for PC, ergo, gansta thinks they make buggy games!

Baldurs gate2,neverwinter nights,Kotor,icewind dale and plaescape wasn' t buggy for me atleast.

But then again they are PC games so the specc and configuration on your PC could fukk them up i guess...?

But i had no problem with them,nor have i heard many complain about them making buggy games.

Well i didnt have any trouble with them either, and they are still some of the best games ever!

Yes they are.
I' m very happy MS realised how importent their studio is and signed them up for 3 epic rpg games.

Come on man - it' s good to love them but it' s silly to say that - even first baldurs gate game needed a patch for some bugs.I remeber that shit.

Baldurs gate2,neverwinter nights,Kotor,icewind dale and plaescape wasn' t buggy for me atleast.

But you wouldn' t call KOTOR a polished production - far from it in fact. (AND I LOVE THIS GAME!)

In that case there should be nothing to stop you from loving their games (bugs and unpolished visuals are my only concern)

Kotor felt like a beta version all the time (framerate , jaggies, stupid things) , but was fuckin awesome anyway.I can' t imagine how cool this game would be if it was polished to console standards.It could' ve been as good as Shenmue.

Well i don' t agree with that.

I never updated my BG or BG2 nor did i update Kotor.
But if you feel these games buggy well nvm...

Mass effect is one of my most wanted games by all plattforms.
Easily in the top 5 of all upcoming games.

I don' t know if it' s good , but I have reasons to believe it will be a great game.I just want a bit more polished experience , that' s all.

They' ve been making console games for some time now and I think they' re getting better at it.

I never had a single bug in them either! Now did it feel unpolished to me. Not even Kotor, which through and through was a good game to me! I also never heard of anyone complaining about them but Gangsta, but Gangsta can be forgiven for things like that. I just tell myself he isnt well!

Gangsta is a very special case.

I agree - Being a console gamer for a long time can get you used to polished games (even if they are bad in overall).

PC polished is nowhere near " console polished" .

I also never heard of anyone complaining about them but Gangsta

You' re surrounded by PC gamers I would presume or Console gamers who made the switch lately :)

FF7 is what I call a polished game for instance.

Ah, but even the PC version?!

Well there are just as bad console as there are bad pc games, your just saying that because your a console gamer at heart!

I dont like buggy games, and i dont play them! Maybe you have faulty hardware, or dont know how to set up your PC!

Hahahaha Gangsta got owned!

I' m not talking about ports here - I haven' t played it.

No , there are definitely more BAD console games , but good console games have higher level of polish as default.

That' s my personal observation over the years.You don' t see it cause you' re used to PC quality games (and this quality can go really high with some games - Quake , Warcraft and Half Life games are a really polished productions that are typical for great console games).

Hahahaha Gangsta got owned!

When? where?

I definitely have to agree however; console games as a rule usually have a higher level of polish than PC games, and that' s because PC games aren' t optimized for anything. Either you have the hardware to run AA or you don' t. On PCs, all of those options are extras, while on consoles they are required so the game does not come away looking like it was made with an Etch-a-sketch.

I dont see why console games have a higher level of polish, i really dont! Iv have played console games now for 6 years, and there hasnt been any difference to me between the good console games, and the good PC games

That' s probably because most of the people ragging on PC' s have no idea what they' re talking about. Most likely they don' t even have PC' s capable of running games, let alone good ones. In the fifteen or so years I' ve been gaming (on multiple platforms), I' ve found the quality of games to be pretty much equal. I' ve had just as many fantastic and flawless gaming experiences on PC as I' ve had on console.

I guess that' s why gamerankings site is flooded with PC games ...oh wait ...it isn' t.

Couldn' t have said it better.

eehhhhh what?


You should know its Bullshit!

With load of crap coming out of your mouth you must have bad breath!

Game Rankings doesnt necesarily have anything to do with polish! Find an FPS on a console better than Halflife 2. Find a RTS on a console better than Starcraft or Warcraft? Find a western RPG (i wont mention Jrpg, since they arent released on PC) better than Fallout.

These games are 100% polished, i dont think its fair to say more console games are polished, if i go to a store ill find 80% crap titles for the consoles and 80% crap titles for the PC.

ohh wait! isnt that company of heroes on gamerankings with 95% score?

You so clearly have your head messed you cant think straight and can only spew biased and idiotíc remarks like that!

I ´play mostly console games, but i still dont have a need to make up things like that!

Exciting news?.

Any guesses?!

shouldnt this have a thread in it self!

It would have to be an announcement from Japan. 12am EST would be 2pm in the afternoon there.

Capcom are supposed to announce something Friday, it will be Friday in Japan at that time. But " major next gen announcement" ?!

Sony bankrupcy!

Sony bankrupcy!

Lol as much as it would be funny dont think it would happen so soon. I think maybe something games or peripheral related.

Like a deal between Sony and Immersion for their new technology?!

Hmmmm I thought so a while back but the more time goes on the more it seems sony wants to work around rumble with something of their own (maybe). Probably a wii announcement didn' t it say something about worth waiting for?. Nintendo has had us waiting a while.

I want it to be a SEGA announcement!!!

You should know its Bullshit!

I guess the majority (99%) of industry editors don' t agree with you and gamerankings prove that.(if you know how it works)

Gamerankings won' t upload each countries biggest gaming magazine/sites.
They go by American sites 99% of all the time you dumbshit gangsta.

Why do you think NFL to dreamcast is ranked top 8 of all games on Gamerankings.com

Let' s use Gangsta' s mentality for a second here:

" I looked up the 50 worst games on that site and saw only 8 PC games in the worst 50. The other 42 are for consoles. Therefore, PC games must have a better quality average."

It' s just as stupid to say that, as it is to compare it to the top50. You' ve clearly only ever played console games and never given a second thought to PC games. Therefore your opinion is invalid.
