Re: Hitman Absolution
It's all on the Glacier engine, so hopefully a few tweaks here and there are possible. That said, the Steam versions still don't work for a lot of people with no word from IO on any attempts to fix the issues, so they might just be upscaled ports. We'll have to see.

Re: Nintendo Wii U
I honestly don't know if I have anything downloaded to Wii. I should probably check before tomorrow. Got to make sure this once-and-done transfer nonsense goes well or I'll be screwed. I sincerely hope Nintendo find a better way to handle purchases in the future. It actually puts me off buying anyth...

Re: Hitman Absolution
Both Chinatown levels, the Terminus Hotel and the Streets of Hope are pretty good in terms of exploration, freedom of movement and the largest number of hit options. But, yeah, Blood Money is a masterclass in level design for sandbox environments. Silent Assassin too, but that's quite tough to go ba...

Re: Hitman Absolution
I've always liked Agent 47. This could be a case of Stockholm Syndrome a la David Hayter's Solid Snake, but David Bateson's voice is synonymous with 47 in my eyes, and I enjoy his performances. As for Absolution, I can count on one hand the number of missions that reached the heady heights of Silent...

Re: WIN Hitman: Absolution Professional Edition [CLOSED]
I couldn't agree more with Leon's chosen winner. There were several good entries, but Wizard Of Odd's brought the biggest smile to my face, as extreme as it was!

Re: Game Suggestions for the Podcast
Minerva's Den is on par with Fort Frolic as my favourite part of the BioShock games. I can't wait to replay it before the shows.
The depth of narrative in Minerva's Den is astounding, and the condensed pacing (that could have been an Achilles' Heel) actually served to the benefit of the story.

Re: Asura's Wrath
We got into the nature of games and when the line is crossed into interactive experience during the Dear Esther show (Issue 34). I imagine we'll have a similar discussion on the line between game and interactive film on this show. Personally, I think there's room for a multitude of interpretations i...

Nice set up dude, i hope you brought this. I dont see why you would want to overclock it as it will be fine as it is, but each to there own. The i5 3570s are very overclockable as the mid-range Intels always tend to be, more power with zero instability. I have mine notched to 4.4Ghz just from the i...

Re: Borderlands & Borderlands 2
That boss did the same for me too. Fortunately it was on the umpteenth time of beating it (it's a great farming spot), and a simple quit/reload sorted it out. Reload is always the best option for any glitches as you'll be at the entrance to whatever area you are in and quest progress will generally ...

Re: Borderlands & Borderlands 2
I have only one area right in the middle of Eridium Blight that I can't get into. For the most part I found exploring the surroundings was enough to find a route in. I'm still amazed that there were so many areas with no quest (side or main) associated with them.

Finished it last night, myself. How did you find the difficulty. I breezed through most of it, but came unstuck on a couple of areas that were clearly designed for co-op. I'll list them in a spoiler box to keep them just for us! ;) The Statuesque side quest in Opportunity, the Demon Hunter side que...
