You don't need to play Witcher 1. Just read the plot on wiki or something.

But definitely play Witcher 2. The storyline in the second entry is quite important to the overall plot.

True, hate speech is part of free speech.

However, let's not get over excited here, most western countries restrict free speech in some way or form.

For example, it is illegal in the UK to preach open violence. Preaching violence technically falls under 'free speech' too.

In France, it is illegal to deny the holocaust or even dispute it historically. Denying or disputing the holocaust is pretty much harmless compared to preaching ...

I don't think Middle Easterners would react to those achievements. I mean, most of the games there are imported NA/EU versions which wouldn't have been censored.

Enter George Lucas.

I can understand how many people thought Dragon Age 2 was a disappointment.

It was was so underwhelming compared to its prequel.

Bioware has confirmed they will not be recycling environments and dungeons in DA3. I do hope Morrigan (and her child) returns in some way. I also hope we'll get to meet The Warden and Hawke too.

It's ironic for the guy who loves DmC to call the Witcher series terrible.

Umm, to sign in you need an internet connection obviously. Once it's done, disconnect the internet and it will automatically go into offline mode.

You can still launch games offline. Of course, except online-based games like L4D2 or DOTA.

A lot of people forget about this. You need only sign in once then you can go offline as long as you keep your PC on.

Did you know that the japanese voice actor of Solidus is the same as Solid and Big Boss?

Just because they don't sound like each other in the english voices, they still have virtually the same DNA. Regardless, Big Boss and Solid Snake have always had the same voice except in MGS4.

I know, I'm saying it's my opinion he promotes third way even if he is a self-proclaimed libertarian. Also, that is a quote I am unsure of. I could be entirely wrong and he never said he's libertarian. But from what I felt when playing Bioshock Infinite, he definitely took jabs at both right and left.

I highly doubt this. It would be suicidal.

Ken Levine is most definitely not an anarchist.

I think he himself said in an interview that he is libertarian. He is obviously a secularist but still right-wing. What he expressed in Bioshock Infinte are two extremes that both lead to chaos. First is the religious conservatism by Comstock in Columbia. Second is the anarcho-communism of Daisy Fitzroy. Both are extremists and both are corrupt and commit atrocities in the game.

Basically, in a nutshell, he'...

haha, there were like 4-5 different endings but 8-9 ending combinations in Witcher 2.

Didn't Dragon Age Origins have like 50 different ending combinations with most choices determined at the landsmeet?

what are you talking about? Solid Snake is the clone of Big Boss, so it makes absolute sense for them to have the same voice actors. The reason why Big Boss in MGS4 was voiced by someone else is because he's like 80 years old and it would sound a bit strange seeing two different people talking with the same voice and since Hayter was already putting on an older voice for Old Snake.

The fact is, there is no real story reason for him getting dropped.

The man himself has said this is no April Fools.

Kojima already gave his reason why. He said that he wanted a new voice because MGS is taking a bold new direction and will be very different to older MGS games.

Basically, there's no real signficant reason. Akio Otsuka, the japanese voice of Snake, is returning.

So, in reality this does feel like a selfish decision made by Kojima.

Really sad. I do hope our petitioning and pressure can get Konami and Kojima to change their minds.

David Hayter gave up half of his salary to get the original voice actors of MGS1 to return in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.
