Uh, the NES only has five channels so at any given moment you can only hear five sounds at the same time. I suppose sound effects take precedence over music?

The DS version is an improvement on the PS2 version

It's a toss up between the SNES and DS though: Do you like the graphics in the DS version, do you like less grinding? Go with DS. Do you like not having every character speak in a horrible barely readable accent? SNES.

Terra Nova and tell me if it is as good as my nostalgia remembers it.

Cuba, Terra Nova was an old Looking Glass tactical first person shooter

so long as you tag a weapon type and put a point or two in agility, you're good. For Energy Weapons or Big Guns to be viable, you need to sequence break early or just tag speech and stealth as well to get through the early-mid game.

I believe that you only need 160% in small guns to have perfect accuracy in all situations, any points above that would be wasted.

On that note, check out the wonderful favorite games thread which I don't believe has been fully integrated into the sb recommends wiki. (Probably because they often lack descriptions.)

n64 emulation sucks and you're pretty much stuck with project64 1.6 until mupen64plus gets a good UI or pj64 1.7 is released to everyone. As far as I know there isn't a real LLE emulator for n64 so compatibility hasn't improved in years.

Do you remember the names of any saturn quake maps? I'm gonna look up if any got converted.

Oh wow looking on youtube I didn't realize that the saturn and n64 ports both had colored lighting.

yes definitely stick with actual oblivion; morroblivion is more a proof of concept than a good game.

I feel that Oblivion actually needs more modding to be playable than Morrowind but that's just cause there's a lot of good things going on in the latter absent from the former.

Civ Rev is also total trash :(.

There are a lot of good historic strategy games, I'm sure T. could talk about them if he felt inclined.

how about Guild Wars

[Tulpa]

yeah Remote you actually do want Guild Wars after you elaborated on what you want.

I mean it is all Arena based but the game is built around PVP (It doesn't even require any grinding) and its class and skill system is at least twice as enjoyable as the best of world of warcraft.

No just watch the kane and lynch: dead men trailers and don't even think about touching the game. It's total shit.

the thing is it actually does matter what weapon you use in Doom. There's a tangible difference between all the weapons and most of them are situationally useful (the pistol is garbage but whatever it lasts like half a level)

Bioshock does not have this distinction.

Huh, even a console version I find that difficult to believe. Short of robbing a bunch of native american ships I doubt you'll have much of a fleet after only an hour and the fencing doesn't even get interesting until you've upped the difficulty a few notches.

Hrmm DAIS I believe Vogel's newest game is a Baldur's Gate lite(no factions just exploration and dungeons) but I haven't played it.
