Some more for Mass Effect

-- All classes are not created equal. The hardest difficulty is a joke as a soldier, but you will have to work hard for it if you play something like a pure engineer.
-- Same goes for your party members, though I guess it makes sense that a hardened mercenary like Wrex would be more skilled than most of your crew. They don't all work with the same class structure as PCs either. Wrex is a "Krogan Battlemaster" and Liara is an "Asari Scientist" (or something like that) which allows them different bonuses / skill combinations.
-- The ally achievements are weird. The hardest one to get will be Liara's since you get her last (don't do any citadel side quests before leaving) but the other characters seemingly have uneven requirements and you may not get them at the times you'd expect.

Oblivion
-- Has a very strange way of autoleveling monsters in comparison to your skills. By not leveling up or focusing entirely on minor skills, the game becomes easier. It's possible (and likely) to completely screw yourself and make the monsters nigh impossible to kill if you play the game like most normal RPGs. Read http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Efficient_Leveling for a detailed approach.


I'm about to start playing Hitman: Blood Money if anyone wants to mention anything.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaittttt I'm thinking of getting this game but my computer is fairly lovely. Whats your computer and how badly does it run?

I tried the game in open beta with a radeon 9800, 3.0 ghz p4, and 1 gig of ram. It ran. . . kind of. I played until level 8 or something and I really don't think you'd want to play the game like that.

I know Dead Rising has come up a bunch in this thread but I just picked it up and was wondering how the gently caress I should deal with the guys in the jeep because they're about to make me put down the game in disgust for good. Alternatively, is there a way I can open the gates so I don't have to go into that middle area period?

Killing the clown worked (only took like 4 hours of in-game time and a lipstick prop :psyduck:). That shortcut should be all I need.
