I like how the author has apparently double standards concerning what constitutes "multiple outcomes" (as was outlined in the comments to the article on the linked site) -- whichever way you rescue Tandi is different, whichever way you dispose of a guard is not. Because "Tandi is rescued by...

Edmond, most of the options depend on what and when and how you said to Marburg (as well as how well you handled Rome), and how high your rep with him is. Getting a 9 or 10 ain't easy, but it provides a warm fuzzy feeling in the ending, yes. From what I've read, the Veteran mode also alters how...

For the hidden boxes discussion: [spoiler:6624d8d8ff]In my Recruit playthrough, I saved Scarlet despite having contacted Parker, and she replaced SIE as my handler, but since I ALSO saved Mina, and had the Ladies' Man perk, I sailed off into the sunset with Mina. The scripts overrode each...

I don't actually understand how people can even try to play FPS/TPS games on consoles. Sure, I've played the various editions of MGS on the PSOne and PSP, and I know how the analog sticks feel when you're trying to score a headshot (piss-poor, I'd say), but I still feel the need to fall back on...

Trust me, this one's better in that particular regard, and I'm not really a matrix drone - there's a lot of current-gen games I own that I never finished because they bored me to pieces before even getting to mid-point. Or maybe my tastes are just screwy =)

Well, there is a (miniscule) endgame scene with Deng, though sadly non-interactive and accessible only for a particular sequence of events. What really shows in the replays, though, is how the order you tackle the cities in affects the story -- how if you do Rome before Taipei, then...

For those keeping score, you can 'romance' (that is, boink off-screen) Mina, SIE, Scarlet and Madison. You get a bonus perk for every one you bed and a further one if you bed them all in one playthrough. But yeah, can we all agree on the fact that Sis is the center of fetish fuel for this...

I'm saying that there are situations which can be considered as such, but there are no unsolveable situations. At least, not if you're unopposed to the idea of dying and reloading seven or eight times because you're rushing into something that will mos def kill you dead. Well, there are...

But there aren't any major curveballs. Where you can't go with stealth and fists alone, a well-placed grenade or sniper rifle will take up the slack for you. Or an activated skill. Fury is kinda wonky, but Iron Will, Stealth Operative and Overclock do help for this sort of tactic. Don't be...

Nah, I'm afraid you're stuck with that =) Varies from level to level. Some levels railroad you, some stagger with their supposed freedom of choice (though it turns into simply choosing the track to which you'll be railroaded), but there are a couple of moments of proper level design. My second...

Well, sure, it's western-made cranberry sauce, what did you expect? It's the little tidbits (like Molo-Tek, or "Добро Пожаловать/Посторонним Вход Воспрещён" signs, or Lazo's yacht) that make it worth it (and work). The only real-life place that is remotely real-life-looking was the meeting...

It picks up once you're past Saudi Arabia and have enough skill points in any weapon skill to get the weapon special attack. Or if you Solid Snake every mission, that works too (except for the boss fights, but what the hey). The getting stuck in terrain unsticks if you use melee attacks a...

I'm on my second playthrough now, in Recruit mode, and I have this weird feeling that with time (and maybe a few patches, maybe even fan-made, though I've never ever heard of anyone doing much in the way of fan-made patches for UT3-tech games) it can grow into a cult neoclassic like VtMB is...

It's not about irony, it's about knowing modern russian netspeak. :P Good thing there's little chance of a version in Latin making its appearance. Or in Tolkien's Elvish, for that matter :D

Is it just me or these look like screenshots STRAIGHT out of Silent Storm, minus the helmet on the armour? (Well, except for the non-1940s cars on the third one) http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/s2-silent-storm http://www.ag.ru/screenshots/silent_storm/43514...

*shrugs* I suppose I oughta go and dig up that law (1998 you said?), mayhap it'll shed some light. :D Trick is, law or not, barter is still encoutered around here. To tell you the truth, it's the first time I heard that we DO have such a law at all... *goes off to dig in them databases* As...

Whoops, my bad. I just mistook this game with a similar design for something FO-related. :oops: Well, anything's possible, although I really don't think that Interplay would've gone out of their way to alter the game in relation to something that happened many miles away from the US. I mean...

Little historical information: The official Fallout (both RPGs and Tactics) release for Russia is due in 2005. Therefore, Interplay couldn't've considered that back then... Unless they wanted to cut it from ALL the versions. And besides, from what I've heard, it's gonna be the same as the US...
