Malcom is a ghost!

snake kills dumbledore!

You can't piss people off by revealing plot twists if there aren't any!

this is a pretty lazy sequel, but they do add some new spells and what not.

I am still a fan of Counter-Strike, and am also a fan of Counter-Strike Source but I see lost potential. Aside from a graphical update many of the problems I had with the original Counter-Strike are still alive and well in the Source update.

Let me say that the graphics are good. Not F.E.A.R. good, or Doom 3 good, but still a huge improvement over the original Counter-Strike. The blood sprays across the enviornment very well and after a room full of people shoot each other up it's a site to see. Also the wounds look really good on the corpses. I especially like shooting people in the face now. The detail on the guns is pretty good, some look better than others on the source engine, but none look bad.

Still, there are a lot of problems with Source (more personal problems ... Read More

Great game. My son and I have had fun with it. While investigating reasons behind my computer's tendency to reboot and/or freeze without warning... behold! Lego games come with SecuROM DRM. Thanks for screwing up my computer LucasArts.

It has all the issues, every page, perfect quality. You cant complain there, the price is low compared to that. Your only problem will be the boring and long beginning issues.

Flaws: ugly interface, for 50 bucks I could definitely have created a more satisfying menu for the costumers

the cross overs will be tough to follow, since it's techincaly 40 years of UNCANNY X-men. But whatever. Still they couldve done better.

Really, though. SO worth it!

This game is really alot of fun. Alot of people said that the keyboard controls are hard to deal with, but this is not the case. Like many others said, this game does indeed have some very high end graphics. I would not recomend playing it with a 128Mb graphics card. I use a 1Gb graphics card and it performs beautifully. I suspect that a 256MB or 512MB graphics card would work good. There are a few minor glitches but nothing really big. Overall this is a really cool game.

Video Games : Space Quest Collection
Space Quest... the ultimate computer geek fantasy game from the innocent days of young graphic adventures!! We spent hours and hours trying to get through the many adventures of Roger Wilco, which were filled with perplexing challenges, tongue-in-cheek humor, and some surprisingly great graphics (especially in the later episodes) that redefined gameplay as we knew it.

I was ecstatic that these were re-released, and was mainly pleased with this incarnation. All episodes are offered in their entirety (even the annoying copy protection schemes!!) and online web sites can now cut down on your frustration by providing tons of hints =) Excellent job reviving these classics.

My one small gripe--the redone Space Quest I is included, but the original Space Quest is not. Although the graphics of ... Read More

I have been playing AVP2 for a few years now. In my opinion, it is the best onlime game I have ever played. It takes a while to get good at it. this game was released in like 2001 and it does not look like another sequel is in the works as of today. You can still buy it online for under $20. Own it today, you will not be disapointed!

It's a thin Star Wars veneer to Age of Empires 2. It's actually very fun, but I had some issues:

1. Infantry can't shoot aircraft like in StarCraft. Wtf.
2. There's a bunch of random, un-canon units. Races aren't as varied as I'd like.
3. One of the playable factions is the Gungan race. Need I say more?
4. They leave out a bunch of units they should have used and replaced them with crap. (i.e. instead of an Imperial Star Destroyer, they have what looks like a cross between a pickup truck and a tie fighter. A gigantic tie fighter)
5. Weird voice acting and unit responses. Sounds nothing like the real thing.

Other than that, it's IMO the best Star Wars RTS out there to date. I thought Empire at War was really boring, too tell you the truth. :P
