You sure about that? My original PST copy works without any work in Vista.

I have to wonder why those things aren't popular in the US (I bought Richard Burns Rally and Grand Prix Legends from one of those DVD rerelase packages overseas)

yeah, PST doesn't have the "you must gather your companions" thing, so if all else fails in combat areas, just make a mad dash for the exit

Farquar posted:You guys gotta stop telling people how to play the game. That's the best part about it, is that you can play it any way you want. There are no 'wrong' ways to play Torment and anybody that thinks so is wrong. you probably should try to use a character that emphasizes the game mechanics that don't suck, though

Does that mean you can run I-War 2 with shaders set to full now?

Make sure to try I-War 1, the nice thing about space shooters is that they age really well (since all you need is some nice backgrounds, and some models). I loved the feeling of piloting with a crew better than I-War2's lone wolf kinda thing, though the piracy free-roam aspect was awesome.

eh, I actually found the whatever the game considered default for the 360 pad fine. just needed to remember the shortcut for gunnery control, and I was good to go. i kinda found it hilarious that IW1 had better gamepad support "out of the box" than loving Psychonauts

It might not work for you, but any time that happens to me, downloading the file twice in the same browser simultaneously to the same location always seems to work. No idea why.

last I heard, the VTM:Bloodlines patch had run out of things to do and the author had resorted to randomly changing the locations of characters and items for no good reason, that might have been what he was referring to

Voted for Re-Volt, because that was the best loving Mario-Kart style racer on PC when it was out. It's not an EA title, either, some random Canadian company holds the rights. It could happen!

Rascyc posted:I don't remember how Duke3D and Shadow Warrior played out, but I know Doom's harder difficulties were borderline impossible until after you played through the game enough times to memorize all the secret areas to get the necessary amount of ammo since its idea of harder difficulties was just more and more enemies. From then on, it was just a matter of enter room - oh there are so many enemies that I can't strafe? - time to bottleneck camp for 20 minutes to cut the numbers down. uh, is your only experience of Doom playing Alien Vendetta on UV or something

Doom/Doom2 aren't really that hard these days because mouselook kinda trivializes the combat at the monster populations those games had Plutonia's where it's at if you want an asskicking
