I remember one very clearly... "Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth" vs. "Rome: Total War" Heh, I was on the side of Lord of the Rings... at least until it came out. Then I realized how awesome the Total War series is.
Rome: Total Realism Platinum Edition is another mod, but it's generally agreed that Europa Barbarorum (v1.1) is better. Still, the new R: Total Realism (v7.0) should come out soon, which will help it catch up to EB. Anyways, can't go wrong with R:TR or EB, really. You could even have both. =)
[QUOTE="opopopp"]It's a stupid, stupid business decision. What benefit do you get by keeping your game PC exclusive? Who pays you for exclusivity? Let's look at consoles for a sec. Why is Halo exclusive? Microsoft is paying them millions for exclusivity. Why is Metal Gear Solid exclusive? Because Sony is paying them millions for exclusivity. If a game is PC exclusive, who would pay them? No one pays them. So the point of this post is that PC gaming isn't dying, it's just that more businesses aren't being stupid.opopopp
You should look at it from both angles...
Why do you think games like STLAKER and Witcher are PC exclusive? Because they are small dev houses who would be crippled by the high cost of console development kits and royalties paid to the big 3.
So PC exclusive companies may not be getting million dollar bonuses (which very very few console game developers can even claim) but they also arent burdened by the additional costs of console development.
You think microsoft and sony let people sell games for their systems for free?
I don't know if they do let them sell games for free but they most likely indeed do or for a cheap price because for every game that is sold, Microsoft and Sony get $10 profit directly from that sale (hence why console games are $10 more expensive than PC games). If that theory is true, then why are Wii games $50? Of course, the Development Kits for consoles cost in the thousands of dollars. The "Big 3" are, as said earlier, not going to allow someone to develop and release a game for their consoles for free.
I just press "Escape" and it allows me skip all of the into movies. (Except for the EA logo, they force you to see that!) I'm sure you could find and delete the movie files in the Crysis folder though. Here it is, from the tweakguide. "Disabling the Introductory Movies There are a large number of introductory/promotional movies which play before you reach the main menu in Crysis. If you wish to skip these and reach the main menu much more quickly, there's a simple method to do this: go to your \Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\Game\Localized\Video directory, and rename all the .sfd files starting with Trailer_, as well as Crytek.sfd, to something else - e.g. give them all ._sfd extensions. Alternatively, create a new folder under that directory, call it whatever you wish, and move all the above .sfd files to that new directory. The game will now automatically skip all these introductory movies and get to the main menu within a shorter space of time. Note that there is a g_SkipIntro command variable, but it doesn't appear to work in removing the startup movies, regardless of how it is implemented."
I personally would get Morrowind GOTY Edition for the PC, the mods make it MUCH MUCH better then the Xbox version. Also, since it sounds like money isn't a problem, I would get Dark Cloud 2 and FFXII. They are both very fun. I was in the exact same dilemma over the exact same games, and decided to buy those two. Boy, they are awesome. FFXII looks good and is great, and I haven't played a Final Fantasy game since FFX. It is a fun game, and I think it was just too hyped up for some people or people who thought it was too far from the "traditional" Final Fantasy formula. So, Dark Cloud 2 and FFXII IMO. Oh and, Morrowind is my favorite game of all time, so I would get that before anything else!
I have no idea where to find my wii name. I went to almost every option and haven't found it. Can someone help?luigigreen
First, click the Wii Message Board button in the bottom right corner of the Wii menu. Then Click The envolope button (I think) that's like create a message. It is by the callander button. Then click address book and it should say your Wii Number.
