So I have to admit... every time I hear this song now I think "I thought that was a made up song for The Wedding Singer" Seriously, I only heard the song within the last year or so in some store and keep thinking that.

Culture Club had a somewhat brief run during the 80s where they were immensely popular.

So was cocaine. :D

Haha, some of my co-workers convinced me to buy this and we played it as a LAN game a few times. It was fun, but I haven't played it since. This was during launch. From everyhting I had understood at the time was that you could unlock everything in game as long as you played it a ton. I had thought the DLC was basically just for those that didn't want to grind. To me the game is a beautiful tech demo of the newer Crysis engine.

This will be pretty awesome IF (big if) they don't pull the same crap I've been seeing with other fighting games lately. Like Mortal Kombat X and Dead or Alive, where you basically have to pay 5-10 bucks for extra characters. Seriously, the whole DLC concept is ruining the video game industry. But us stupid people want the complete game, so we still end up buying it... I wouldn't have that big of a problem with it if the games would be released at 20 bucks, then had added content later at like 5 bucks per... Or even if they did it like Neverwinter Nights, where 5 bucks was another semi-lengthy campaign. But the method of 'pay 2 dollars for some skins' crap is lame.

So hopefully they don't modularize this one like that. DLC has also been an excuse for releasing games that aren't complete, and then making people pay more money to complete them... it's crap.

Sorry, for the rant!

Those sweet ST sounds... How many flame wars where started over them.

Ha, indeed. That was definitely one area where the Amiga was almost 100% better. The initial games all pretty much looked the same, but the sound on the Amiga was always mighty impressive... until it wasn't and both systems became obsolete. Still saddens me, if there were more competition, we'd probably have a very different landscape right now in the computer world. Granted with us begging and pleading for Linux ports, I could only imagine how hard it'd be begging for it if there were Commodore, Atari, Apple, Microsoft and Linux to write for. Then again I wonder how many devs would just support the other ones since Windows is still and historically such crap? :D

And here I was thinking I'd buy it since it's now on sale for 40% off. Hmm, I was initially thinking the sale was going to coincide with the Linux release, instead it coincide with them announcing it won't be released... how does that make any sense? Granted maybe it's on sale because they're EOL any support on it, because... well they screwed the goose on this one...

Quoting: GBeeHaving played Shadow of Mordor a lot lately, this game looks a lot alike ... and I mean A LOT. Not exactly excited to end up playing what effectively turns out to be "Shadow of Mad Max".

It really is a lot like it. Run to a Tower / Town, beat up a bunch of guys, find some objectives. Go to the next spot, rinse and repeat. Mad Max is a blast because you get to drive around a pimped out car and run people off the road. Going after convoys really give you the feel of being in a Mad Max movie.

Actually Shadow of Mordor is probably closer to the Batman games in game play.

Speaking of other WB titles, I see that Batman Arkham Knight is on sale.... sign they're going to do the Linux release?

Quoting: edoThat moderator said than it wasnt coming to linux and than he talked with a dev. Nevermind, what matter is than its on the way, or I hope so

That Moderator is a well known chode. There is a reddit page out there where a guy wrote a python script to go through all of the steam forums with his name and did a grep for Linux and found he was all over the place always saying "just use Windows" or "Why would you use Linux? Just get Windows" etc.

So him talking to a developer.. maybe. But I wouldn't believe anything from the guy after the multitude of forums where he does that. Seems anytime there is someone asking for a Linux version he shows up and says why waste the time.
