I thought BioWare is the name of the Neverwinter Nights Game Engine, The witcher rocks on the pc.

BioWare made Neverwinter Nights, Knights of the Old Republic, and they're working on Fallout 3.

Love this game.

There is a lot of talking, but the storyline is the whole purpose of a RPG.

@ XemnasXD
I take Ashley and that one chick that you have to save.
Forgot her name.

Great game i've been playing it also.
I love the way the dialogue flows and its really realistic in that sense,
it's a real step forward in rpg's imo and I can't wait to complete this
and would definately get Mass Effect 2 if that comes out in the future. You rock Bioware! :wink:

Agree.

I too liked ME but it had too many glaring flaws that I'd be hard pressed to say it was great. No developer should let out a console game with the huge issues ME had let alone BioWare. Other than the bugs, rover, and boring/pointless sidequests I didn't think I was cheated out of my rental $.
Story holds a lot of promise, loved the climax/twist.

I thought "The Witcher's" story/plot/ending changes depending on the actions you take?

Or should I stop reading game reviews, lol.

soldier class lvl 57 , usually take ashley and garrus, b/c there the only ones that i think are very good at all. well considering i never really use special abilitys and just run over almost everything with spectreX gear i dont see a point in the special biotic and tech abilitys ;) started a new renegade infiltrator though , its ok so far

GH3 for the pc is so stupid that they only made it for $$$... If you don't have a guitar you'll be stuck at the first boss battle because you can't "tilt" your keyboard to activate the powerups... very disappointing.

...or you could just go to the options menu and configure it to a key.......

FAIL

WTH does GH3 have to do with ME?

The powerup activation is a GH Guitart ONLY FUNCTION. You have to tilt the guitar... it can't be changed in the config.. lol.


Just bringing up random posts lol.

I use Wrek and Tali....garrus dies to much with me i was a lvl 55 Vanguard and he just wasn't cutting it. Once Wrek gets his barrier he's a nice tank and tali has the best shields in the game out of all the guys once your lvl her quarian skill up....

I was a solider so I never prepared who I went with. I just took who made good conversation. Badasses ftw. I did only a couple sidequests so I was an early 40 when I finished.
One of the EGM reviewers made her character so bad she had to try 40+ times before she beat the end boss. ROFL. First time ftw.

<3 EGM my party was kickass beat the final guy on my first try though when the final shot went off i had no shield and was down to about 10% of my health, im pretty sure my team mates saved me on that one.

Unless it's different on the PC, You can also use the 'back' button on an Xbawks. I dont see any reason why it would be different @ the PC.

lol yeah the final boss was pretty much a joke, and the first part of the boss battle(before he gets taken over) you can even make saren kill himself. Sad. :) but right now im using wrex and garrus to get the achievements

Original KOTOR is hard to beat but its got better dialogue and a great story. If you enjoyed KOTOR you'll love this game.


BTW theres alreayd a topic on GH3 so keep your stuff in there

Yahtzee was spot on except when talking about the talking. It just wasn't for him.

KOTOR is my fav RPG so ME doesn't come close but it's still a good rental, or if you love rpgs there's enough replay value with diff builds and a megaton of info in the game that it might be worth a purchase.

Hehe that dude was pretty much right.

I still loved it though.

I beat it the other night at level 36 with 118 saves.

That whole scene that you get when you are flying to Ilos is....wow.
