Final Boss Xan

gomsim — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 18:37:12 GMT

Have you ever felt like you are a little pityful worm lying in the dirt just because you jast cannot beat that increadibly skilled boss? I feel like that right now. I've tried week after week to defeat Xan, cyborg and the creator of the Unreal Tournament, but he simply won't die 15 times before I do! Sometimes when I fell like I have the lead, I start to shake. Then I loose. I've played trough many different challanges in Unreal Tournament, I've been fighting as the leader of a squad of skilled ...

My own review on Baten Kaitos [Swedish]

gomsim — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 22:47:22 GMT

F�RORD Denna recension har jag skrivit sj�lv och �ven publicerat p� Gamereactor.se. Den �r inte helt t�ckande, men den duger. "Den tid d� hav och land var f�renade �r sedan l�nge gl�md och historien har blivit myt."*[1] Baten Kaitos �r ett spel som, trots sin fantastiska historia, spelbarhet, grafik, atmosf�r och k�nsla, inte f�tt mer uppm�rksamhet p� marknaden �n en kotte i skogen.

It's finally here!

gomsim — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 21:00:42 GMT

The empires are upon us! We must defend our borders to all costs! Let's send out our fleet, to take up the fight against the enemies! Defeat is not an option! Empire: Total War is here! Is it as good and amazing as people say? Go see for yourself. At least I am over-excited about this one!

New Mines of Moria Trailer

gomsim — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:09:46 GMT

Here is the new trailer for Lord of the Rings Online Volume II: Mines of Moria! There is much more work done behind this one than the last moria trailer, This one might as well become the intro for the game. But anyway. This just looks so great! The only thing that disappoints me is that you see the Fellowship of the ring running around in Moria on this trailer instead of a fellowship that could consist of a group of players. That would have given me a greater feeling of being there, walking ...

Resident evil 5 Introduction

Elho — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 22:14:09 GMT

Well it's finally here and it looks good, still it looks a bit too much like RE4 to have me super excited. But hopefully we will see more of it at the Liepzig games convention which is only in a few months. The graphics looks amazing though and the action seems tight

I've played the demo !

Elho — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 18:57:11 GMT

Yes I have, and I ahve to say i'm disappointed deeply, Capcom hasn't chnaged a thing it's the same perspective the same inventory almost (you don't pause the game when you are to change weapons this time, which will kill you of stress) even the moves are vert similar to the ones that Leon had in Resident Evil 4. Sheva the AI buddy which can be either AI or human is always with you which would make a huge difference to gameplay in a normal game of this type in RE5 it doesn't. Capcom simply ...

Oblivion, the most Ultimate game in the Universe?

strdav — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 21:17:55 GMT

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was released on March 21 2006. It became in just a few days one of the most loved games ever. The thing which makes Oblivion so special and amazing is not the graphic, which was completely revelotionary when it was released, it wasn't either the huge world of Cyrodiil, where thousand of possibilities where hiding, no, according to me, the most fantastic with Oblivion, The Elders Scroll IV, were the freedom to change your destiny. Gears of War. Crysis. Baiten ...

I bought it tonight! :D

gomsim — Sat, 17 Jan 2009 01:08:14 GMT

After school several hours ago I went to GAME in T�by centrum and bought this wonderful game! I haven't played it much yet since I haven't had much time, but at least for half an hour or so, and now I cannot feel anything else than that I have done a good purchase! The game indeed is linear, but there are some very clever ways to go from time to time. Of course you don't have to think anything if using "runner vision" but don't do that if you try the game, it just takes away ...

Killzone 2

Elho — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 21:57:52 GMT

This is a badass game, the first Killzone was according to every American critic a boring a dull game I have to agree it had its fault, but i loved the design and the feeling of total war. This time you will bring war on the evil Helghast on their home planet. Killzone 2 seems to push the concole to it's best ad i'am so excited about this one.

Mafia 2 This will be stunning !

Elho — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 22:10:24 GMT

O my god, the game that no one seems to care about here has me so excited i can barley watch the trailer without feeling the shivers down my spine, the studio has promised us total freedom, Crysis graphics a brutal and realistic story and an atmosphere unlike any other, i didn't like the first game at all i thought it was a pretty weak game but i played the port of the game and they say the PC version is way better. This game anyhow just makes me wanna jump of happines this will be amazing. ...

Shadows of Angmar, LotRO Movies

strdav — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 15:32:17 GMT

This is an LOTRO movie I've done by myself. It was pretty hard to make, so I hope ya'll be happy

I'm thinking of starting playing lotro! Anyone coming with me?

gomsim — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 16:10:29 GMT

Hey! I have been playing lotro a lot (not as much as my friend Dogrim of course). But I stoped last autumn... I got a little tired of it.... but then I tried other MMOs, and they have never been even close to as fun as lotro is. Lotro has a story line which is very good, long and engaging and lots of more (I just wanted to mention the story =P). Now I want to start playing again, BUT! Since my brother and I shared the same account before, and he too wants to play, I cannot play. So I thought... ...

More information about Empire: Total War

Okay guys Sega has released some more info now about Empire: Total War And in my oppinion it's going to be great. Sega has newly launched a websirte for the game and it's still partly under construction but that dosn't mean you can't find alot of great info about it and some really cool pictures http://www.sega.co.uk/empire/ btw the game is released the 3:rd of February

Some Music from Baten Kaitos

gomsim — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 18:27:21 GMT

Here is some in game music from Baten Kaitos. There is lots of music in this game and here are some samples. I would say that the music fits the enviroments perfectly! Each time you encounter a new song in the game it pops up in the music gathering library so that you can listen to it when ever you want. This feature doesn't affect the gameplay at all, it's just a cool feature so that can listen to the beautiful music the game has to offer. This is one of the battle themes. The original ...

Unreal Tournament III

gomsim — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 17:36:07 GMT

Hm... I have played Unreal Tournament 3 for a while now and I really enjoy it all the time. There is many cool weapons and twise as many impressive viechels in comparison UT2004. I've allways said that I lake the Original UT more, and I still do, but now I've noticed something. I've noticed somthing about UT3 That I didn't see before. i've noticed that even if the stages, courses or what ever you wanna call them, are not as insanely many as they are in UT2004, they are all different. I don't ...

My experience of the Bad Company Demo

Elho — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 20:08:19 GMT

I downloaded the demo yesterday which was a pain. It took about 1 hour and 30 minutes which i un-acceptable Sony has to figure out a way to speed up the downloads of popular and attractive demos. After the horribly long download i started to play the single player level. It began with a pretty ok cut-scene which reminded me of the film ''Jarhead'' pretty much. When the actual game started i was so excited to try the so called tactical destruction, it took awhile before the actual fighting started ...

Crysis Warhead

Elho — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 21:30:48 GMT

It's time to return back to the beautiful island.7 months after it's original realese the expansion or sequel or whatever you wanna call it arrives for the PC. According to critics it's shorter than the original game but it's way better to many issues with the first game has been adressed such as the quite sick system requierments and the strange AI. I already booked my copy of the game and i'm already replaying the first one to be prepared for Warhead.

This game looks awesome! :D

Where should I put Spore??

gomsim — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 22:11:45 GMT

Hello! Today I bought Spore! I don't wanna talk much about it yet since I haven't made a forum for it. But My problem is that I don't know under which genre I should put it... Spore belongs to non of the genres we already have. It's not a strategy game, it's not a roleplaying game, and it's definitely not an FPS... It's more of a simulator... am I right?

Are you looking forward to play GW2?

Svante — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:23:24 GMT

Ahhh!!! Guild Wars 2... "It will be amazing" is my rirst thought. Guild Wars owned and Im sure about that Gw2 will be as great as the first Gw. I've played Guild Wars for 1 year now and I got all the expansions. It's a great mmorpg. Without monthly fees(!) The best thing with Guild wars was the skill system (That you only can have 8 skills equiped) and PvP (My opinion). I hope that it will remain the same in GW2. There will also be diferent playable races ...

Halo 3 is amazing!

Svante — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 09:21:34 GMT

Halo 3 is an amazing game... It's the last game in the great trilogy about Halo. Ever since I for the first time played the first Halo game on the Xbox I've loved fps-games. Halo was the first game that introduced me to the genre. Well.. I played some first person shooters before I tried Halo but I thought they were so boring. Halo was the game that maked me love the fps genre. Today, the most time Im spending with video games is with first person shooters, such as Halo. I love ...

I and Dogrim (Virre) have travelled widely through forests and hills (over them too). Last day I looked through all my old pictures from our adventures (and some of my own too), and have now decided to post some of the most memorable moments (and some, in my opinion, funny pictures) here. Sorry for posting so many pictures, but it's hard to choose 10 pictures out of 1 200... Enjoy!

What character will you be in Diablo III?

Virre — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 21:23:45 GMT

What character will you be in Diablo III? Atm only two classes have been presented. The classes are Barnarian and Which Doctor. http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/characters/ My guess is that most of the following classes will excist as well (Diablo II classes): Amazon, Sorceress, Necromancer, Paladin, Assassin and Druid. A guess is that they have splited up the Sorceress class so there into a couple of diffrent classes each specialized on a certain kind of magic. Also a is that ...

Finaly a chance to return to Sanctuary and hopefully also to Tristram. Spoiler: aw why did they have to destroy th city in the second game. At least Deckard Cain survived (He will be a npc in Diablo III as well but aperently he isn't the last of the Horadrim!!!! ) but on the otherhand ...

Every other month there comes out a massive patch with lots of great new content and often new landmasses. Since launch there have been 5 books (patches). Why they are called books actually is because with every patch there comes a new book, and a book is like a new part of the epic story line. All the epic story quests are named "Chapter <#>: ", and when you have done all the chapters for one book you go to the next one. Here are the Trailers for Book ...

The Book Trailers in Volume I???

gomsim — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 23:30:04 GMT

If anyone is wondering why I have put the Book trailers for Lotro in Volume I: Shadows of Angmar instead of just letting them be in the main forum, Lord of the Rings Online, it's because i haven't told you why. But the reason why I did that is: We have now come to book 14, which is the last book before Volume II: Mines of Moria. Then, when Mines of Moria is out, i think they will start over with book 1 again, like the previous ones will be called "Volume I: Book #" and the ones ...

Civilization is really good

gomsim — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:59:57 GMT

In my opinion Civilization IV is a really good game. You start off in like in the younger stone age (or what ever it's called in english) and expand your empire till modern age. You can do all sorts of stuff to build your own empire while you adapt to the situation, like who is your enemy, who is your friend and resources and stuff, it's pretty amazing in my opinion Here's two pictures from it ^^ The graphics aren't the fanciest (except the leader character models) but they do their job ...

Civilization trailer

gomsim — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 23:38:09 GMT

Here is the Civilization IV trailers I would say that they don't look as dark and deadly serious as the Empire: Total War- trailer, but in the Total war game, there is only war (which may be why it's so dark) in comparison to Civilization IV. Ok! Let's be strait. Dark games it great, so called "Emo-games", but it's fun to create an empire with other things than just war, at least in my opinion. But of course (if you don't think so) there is war in Civilization IV too. Here is ...

Alan Wake will it ever come

Elho — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 22:39:17 GMT

It just seems great the Twin peaks setting the graphics and remedy as a developer the only problem is that we haven't heard anything about in 2 freaking years. I just hope we will see this game soon it looks amazing. The story is about Alan who is a writer who goes out on a search for his girlfriend who has disappeared and during his search he encounters monsters from his own nightmares, it seems great.
