I agree with you 100 % on that one. I think that its perfectly fine for some games to have maybe a little backstory so you understand what the games about and to define the main character, and then to have nothing but a mindless rampage of enemy smashing goodness. We need more games like that these days. Do you remember the game Rampage?? That was an awesome 3 player co-op game back when co-op wasnt that popular. The only thing the game really gave you storywise was, "Your a monster, go beat the crap out of stuff!". Wonder if we will see a trend where games go that route again? *fingers crossed*
Also, thanks Jason for the Editor's note. I feel special!
*Hey, Front Page! Awesome! Thanks again!*"
I guess we will just have to wait and see how the Old Republic MMO turns out. It may shed a little light on how they would have ran Baldur's Gate."
Hope you like it."


I do want to add a note to anyone out there looking for a decent deal on game rentals. I know it seems kind of steep at first but when you look a bit deeper at it, its a great deal. Blockbuster has this thing called "In Store Total Access". It has a option that you can rent not only movies, but games with it as well and keep them out as long as you like for no extra charge. I pay (here it comes) 32$ a month and I can have out a combo of any 2 movies or games for as long as I want. If you consider its around 6-10$ per game or movie rental for the new ones, thats a damn good deal!
Hopefully someone can get some use out of that like I have. Better hurry tho, lots of rumors about Blockbuster going under lately. (sad face).
Great article Errol, Thanks!"
