Whoa didn't even hear about this. Some of my favorite games ever are the Pharaoh and Caesar games by Impressions Games. Gonna have to check it out!

Yeah he lacked the ability to make good adjustments, especially on the fly. Couldn't believe he put 5 guys on the court in a playoff game that had literally never played together in the regular season. A lot of weird decisions like that and sometimes guys would be getting hot and he'd bench them at the worst possible time. That said, I like the guy and really wish him well. Very well-spoken and keeps a good composure even when under fire. Hope he's a solid asset for you guys.

Shocker for me. Never thought to use it like that. Thanks for mentioning it!

And chicken soup is just very very juicy chicken!

I miss when that stuff was the extremes of petty arguments between GOP and DNC voters/media.

"A tan suit!? How unprofessional!"

Absolutely no logic to it they just wanted any reason to hate on the guy. I wasn't an Obama voter in 08/12 but even I was like "who the hell cares? The guy looks sharp as hell in that suit". Perfectly fitted with a modern cut while every GOP candidate at the time looked like they were wearing an oversized boxy suit Al Capone would have worn in the 1920s. Probably taking out their frustrations with their own tailors on Obama.

As a Lakers fan... Godspeed, Bucks.

Agreed. I am not a fantasy fan for games really at all (with very few exceptions) but this looks so rad. The combination of tech and fantasy looks like a wild ride.

When I first saw the trailer I thought it was official. My heart broke when I learned the truth. Been playing Half Life since the original came out in 1998. That was an amazing Thanksgiving as a 14yr old.

I remember being at Costco with my mom and back then they had tables set up in the entrance with tons of software and game boxes and I looked at the back of the box and thought "cool! I want it!". Asked my mom if I could get it as an early Christmas gift who never said yes to that kind of thing and she said yes. I couldn't believe it.

I remember playing it and being so confused in the intro when you're on the train/tram because I couldn't figure out how to get off. I was so used to FPS games like Quake and Doom where you just clicked "new game" and were just dropped into the action or there were basic cinematics setting up the story. The build up to the action was so unique at the time it blew me away.

Sorry for the novel. Just so many fond memories of this game and I was really stoked when I saw this stupidly well done trailer haha.

I think I might have either misread or replied to the wrong comment because I honestly can't remember the context.

This might be my favorite joke here yet. Best part is it's not really even a joke.

Have you been on Reddit? I'm not saying this is the ER community as a whole by any means. My entire whole point is "why does anyone care how I or anyone else wants to play a single player game" even if it's only a few people. I've seen comments verbally berating players for saying they wished there was an easier mode. Yes they're the minority but my point was never "all players are like this".

I'm in the same boat. I have a birthday dinner at a jazz club for a friend so I'm going off the grid and can hopefully avoid the spoilers as well!
