[QUOTE=redBadger;37510827]meh[/QUOTE] I dunno, Mark of the Ninja and Closure look quite interesting.
the sims 3 still has expansions coming out? shjeesh
[QUOTE=Atlascore;37512166]EA is milking the shit out of it, according to wikipedia they've already released two expansions this year and are releasing a third two months from now.[/QUOTE] It's interesting though because those two EPs are filled with content. They still have the shortcomings you would expect from EA, but I think it's a genius move. They know their fanbase can't help but to eat them up. Money, money, money. And it's not so bad this time since they're giving what people have been wanting for years.
The big one is the Seasons pack they are releasing in November. Actual season changes and weather.
Not like it's a real 'buy-able' game or anything but why isn't Black Mesa Source in the PC section? :/
[QUOTE=jonex3;37512589]Not like it's a real 'buy-able' game or anything but why isn't Black Mesa Source in the PC section? :/[/QUOTE] its coming out on the 14th
[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;37512613]its coming out on the 14th[/QUOTE] I know that. But what I meant was since the mod is finally giving something to the players after such long time, It should be a pretty big deal to the PC gaming world.

[QUOTE=BrickInHead;37512084]the sims 3 still has expansions coming out? shjeesh[/QUOTE] It will continue for a couple of years. Then they'll run out of Sims 2 content to port so they'll release The Sims 4 to sell the same expansions again.
[QUOTE=Kljunas;37512784]It will continue for a couple of years. Then they'll run out of Sims 2 content to port so they'll release The Sims 4 to sell the same expansions again.[/QUOTE] Sims 1 expansions were the best. Making magic and that one where you can design your own resort/pet shop i loved.

I couldnt stop buying them or play them, I even bought the Sims Online which was actually pretty cool.
The gap between now and Borderlands 2 release date is too big!

As soon an expansion came out, I was happy as hell because it was practically a new game made with the skeleton from the original game with alot of new things. Nowdays a big part of the dlc tend to be cut things from the main game to milk out more money.
If you think the expansions are horrible, you should see the official store. You can buy points from $10 to $160. A new neighborhood costs around $20 while there are hundreds of custom neighborhoods available. Single items can cost up to $5. It also sucks that there isn't a complete collection for the Sims 2. They still want us to buy each expansion for 10 bucks. I bought the Sims 3 and the expansions (not the stuff packs) when I could get them for an amount of bucks that seemed worth it but since EA denied my legit Saboteur key (years after I bought it) and removed Sims 3 Showtime completely from my Origin account (without any warning), every single person at EA can sincerely go fuck themself.

What's Inquisitor? I never heard of it but it looks really good.
The last time I brought a sims game was the christmas sale on steam like a year and a bit ago that had all the DLC and the base game that was out at the time, havn't brought anymore since. However this is one of the first games I might buy, if its anything like Sims Making Magic then it should be a good time waster

This week is the calm before the storm of fucking MASSIVE proportions, probably the biggest month of 2012. This is like a big giant fuck brick of amazing hugely anticipated titles hitting me square in the face. Tekken Tag 2 9/11 Black mesa 9/14 Borderlands 2 9/18 Torchlight 2 9/20 JESUS FUCK, guys seriously though, big fucking chills. Huge sequel to one of the best fighting games ever, followed by the most hyped up and anticipated mod of ALL TIME, then the awaited sequel to one of my favorite FPS games ever, then fucking to top it off TORCHLIGHT 2 the fucking REAL successor to diablo 2. It's times like these where my dulled gamer bones have been sitting long in the cold, then suddenly BAM I remember what it feels like to actually be excited about videogames for once. ARE YOU GUYS FUCKING HYPED AS I AM OR DO YOU NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THESE GAMES?
