Should have asked if they had them in the back

For what it's the worth, the *coughs* unofficial release states its region free.

Hah, such a terrible movie. I loved it. That and Judge Dredd, which I really should hate more since the comic is so great, and they'll never make another movie based on the property after Stallone tanked this.

No k-marts in Austin... sad face

Coren · 11-12-2007, 03:17 PM

Heh, is it sad that I'm not sure how to check if the game is region free?

Anyways though, this game is ridiculously fun. Very much follows the kind of formula found with the KotoR games, including interactions with party members, romance plots, etc. (Complete a world in the storyline and talk to everyone again to advance that character's plotline.) The storyline is nothing short of epic though.

Coren · 11-12-2007, 06:47 PM

Just beat it, the ending was handled very well IMO. Kind of a short main campaign, but there's a fair amount of side quest stuff, and enough choices that affect the storyline that it should be fun to replay through.

Lorrac · 11-12-2007, 08:26 PM

completion time?

Coren · 11-12-2007, 08:36 PM

17 hours, 23 minutes to complete. Did skip a fair bit of the side quest stuff though because as I got into it, the storyline got good enough that I couldn't wait to see how it worked out hehe.

DoctorSpooge · 11-12-2007, 10:16 PM

That's...disappointing. Slightly. Still, I can't wait--this game will be amazing.

Sean · 11-12-2007, 10:18 PM

I told you guys that the GI review said 18-30 hours to complete.

DoctorSpooge · 11-12-2007, 10:20 PM

I have a selective memory.

Suineg · 11-12-2007, 10:58 PM

Spent about 4 hours in it so far and the majority of that was running side quests in the first area. I am a completionist at heart and can't bear to do only the main quest...

Not a bad game overall. It might be my 360 but the videos are choppy.

Coren · 11-12-2007, 11:16 PM

It's not just yours. There's a ton of video stuttering, frame rate drops, and other graphical glitches.

A lot of times when loading a new area (or even a new camera angle in a cut scene), you'll see really low res textures for a second or so before the high res textures get loaded on top of it. It's weird. Especially sometimes when you're in an area with beautiful landscapes and such, then a big "boss" type enemy drops in with low res textures.

Not to sound like a whiner though hehe. Overall it is a very nice looking game. Just a lot of areas where the graphics don't seem very polished.
