    Tomes Of Mephistopheles

    Haven't tested the latest update, but FINALLY world saving.

    Pandora Pricing And Battery

    With German manufacturing, you're paying for quality. They're competitive, because often there's no-one else that can offer the service or products that they provide, and a great deal of that trade surplus, aside from cars obviously, is the high-end production machinery that China needs to...

    Tomes Of Mephistopheles

    I don't think there's enough game there to justify it yet. The designers need a OMG moment to figure out what to do with the dungeon-generation and wall blasting to make it into a game people want to come back to. As it is, I just don't feel the urge. Combat like Die By The Sword would help...

    Tomes Of Mephistopheles

    Just downloaded it - damn, those sekllingtons are spry. Not 100% sure about the sword combat but I guess it's early days. Is there a nuance to the sword I'm missing? For me it's , press mouse button, slight delay, swing - no alternative swings or ways to angle the stroke. Still, interesting...

    Tomes Of Mephistopheles

    Hmm. Looks interesting. I think I saw something about this on Rockpapershotgun. Guess I'll buy into the alpha next time I fire up the hateful Desura client. Looks similar to Legend of Grimrock, which should be coming out in the next few months. http://www.grimrock.net/

    Open Pandora Reborn @ Global Components

    Best of luck to them. If they can sort out the quality problems and get the price a lot closer to a hundred euros then my interest would be re-kindled. Yeah, I know...

    Soul Crushed.

    Sadly there just isn't much investment money out there right now. Fortunately they're a limited company, though insolvency would hit the existing business owners pretty hard. I'm sure they're doing everything they can to prevent that happening. I stopped following OP regularly quite some time...

    Gog - Good Old Games - Dead! :(

    That arrogant non-apology annoys me immensely - I haven't developed the tolerance to arrogant non-apologies that regular users on here have. Turns out the head guys at gog.com are a couple of pricks. Not gonna stop me using them so long as they remain DRM free, but damn, what a pair of idiots.

    Gog - Good Old Games - Dead! :(

    Honest, if this is PR shenanigans I won't be happy. Getting the BG games on download would be cool, though I have all my BG/Icewind Dale and Planescape Torment disks safe - and Lionheart - heavy sigh - but fake closing and making people think they've lost access to their downloads... who would...

    Gosund Gs-M33

    A guy at work has one of the above - it's a 8GB touchscreen MP4 player that is advertised as being able to play games... but it has no external controls, aside from on/off and volume controls. I thought maybe it had a generic NES emulator but it doesn't seem to recognise NES roms. There is a...

    Gog - Good Old Games - Dead! :(

    Glad I picked up Master of Magic and Age of Wonders there last week. Would have bought far more if I knew they were going to pull this. It'd guess Impulse would be a more likely buyout partner, as they appear to have closer philosophies, than they do to Valve. But who knows. I figure they just...

    Wtf? Ok Who Listed This One....

    Apparently you don't WANT it as much as the guy prepared to pay stupid money for it on ebay. If these devices should be allocated according to WANT, then he wins.

    Do You Like This Sort Of Wargame? (Turn Based..)

    Similar to Neptunes Pride though that doesn't allow order queuing (unfortunately). I don't really see the point of a device specific client for this. Just make it as a web app and customize the layout depending on what browser agent is detected - if you even need to do that. Then everyone can...

    Connecting A Ps3 To Virgin Media (v+ Box)

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Max-Value-Mbps-Hom.../dp/B000TV7FJ4/ I use a pair of these on my mum's computer. Easy to set up and works a treat. Never noticed any lag, but she's not doing much gaming at nearly 70. I have VM and a wireless router and I can't say I ever had much lag either, when...

    Are There Anymore Preorders Being Taken?

    Promoting The Pandora Via Youtube

    Actually I don't think the first batch is near being sold out, but I only check back here occasionally and didn't realise such thoughts could even be spoken nowadays. When I can buy a Pandora off GBAX, or wherever, I'm 99% sure to get one. Until then the posturing that goes on on the forums does...

    Promoting The Pandora Via Youtube

    What's the point of promoting the Panadora, when the first allocation is virtually sold out and the second won't be around, probably, until 2010?

    Pandora Has Compettion

    That would be pretty good, though.

    New User - Ebook Capabilities?

    I read LOADS on a Palm TX, no idea what the DPI of the screen is though. Can't see that it matters really. I could happily read on a Palm Z22 which has a far coarser screen but scrolling was jerky and overall the screen quality of the Z22 isn't as good. It's more a question of contrast and...

    For The 200 Volunteers And Beyond

    If you start to publicly log statistics about failure rates of any aspect of the device, then sure as shooting, someone will misuse those statistics to make it look bad.
