Has anyone heard if Skyrim will playable on Xbox live at some point?
I made the mistake of buying before I trying with the Xbox. Only to be disappointed once again. At least I still enjoy the game. Now I see I should have went with the PC version for online-ability; lack of a good graphics card ...
@DavidB if you liked homeworld, you might check it out. it's turn based and not realtime. and this comment is now stale because I got interrupted while typing it
it's more focused on short games (ie, maybe 10 encounters per game)
I am looking for a top down RPG which I played either in 1997 or 1998. I downloaded the game from a shareware site; the free version had you play as a party of adventurers traveling south to a city, then east to a harbor. At the end you boarded a ship, and the game then asked you to buy the full ...
When you launch them, the blue birds say something that sounds very much like Salut les amis ! in French (Hello friends!). Furthermore, other bird screams sound like Oui ! (Yes!), though this is arguably more of a coincidence.
I wonder if the developers at Rovio started from samples in French an...
In Millennia Altered Destinies it's possible to run into an alternate version of yourself. When communicating with the other you's vessel, it's possible to transmit a numeric code. I've played this game many times but have never been able to figure out what to do in this situation.
The develope...
In my Whiterun house, the bottom floor is full of chests and storage areas, and my Alchemy table has a satchel for me to keep ingredients in.
I just bought a Solitude house and fully upgraded it, and I'm really surprised at the lack of storage space. There's no alchemy satchel that I can see, an...
It was a 2D game and the character you played was a cartoon character from Disney or Warner Brothers. He was a duck or a dog or something like that, anthropomorphized. Your weapon was a gun that shot plungers, iirc. The game was mostly about jumping/dodging/shooting. I seem to remember that at le...
I'm looking for some text-based games to play in a terminal. Which ones do you recommend? The genre doesn't really matter, RPG, adventure, dungeon crawler, etc. Thanks in advance! :D
@badp What is the time frame for asking questions about games won as part of the free games thing? I want Crusader Kings II or Mass Effect III but I won't be able to play it until early March more than likely. I'd assume that'd be an ok window for Mass Effect but what about CKII?
Following the rousing success failure of our last Minecraft game on! we have decided to have another go! The map will be another of Vechs’ super hostile maps by the name of Capture the wool. The map is designed for 8 to 12 players, but after looking at the map I see no reason not to allow more pl...
@agent86 It is basically an honor system, but if you receive a game, and you don't contribute *anything, people are likely to keep an eye on you for any future games you get.

@Wipqozn You're right, we probably shouldn't also mention that @GraceNote will ninja into your house and assassinate you in your sleep. Might scare folks off.
I guess also I'm curious as to what's considered "enough" Q&A for a gifted game, and what the timeframe is. Those details are not really in the grant, and that might be on purpose.
@RonanForman That I can help you with now... Just need anywhere from 10-100 minutes Depending on if the boss walks in to go start up my virtual server :P
I'm running a totally vanilla character in Skyrim: Nord, half-casting (destruction), half-bashing (one-handed sword specialty), heavy armor. I was on my way to Karstholm on the Blades quest and ran into Soljund's Sinkhole. I ran through it pretty easily solo, but got my butt handed to me by the...
In numerous instances, I've wanted to disable a car quickly (usually while driving, but occasionally on foot). With my current loadout this means a lucky grenade, shooting the driver, or managing to get them to crash.
While seeing the driver fly out the front of the car into traffic is pretty e...

Whoa, I read that as "Portal 3" and I was going to go "wtf? Is this like Left 4 Dead 2 where it's the second half of the first game resold to suckers for more money?"
Granted, if Valve does port one of their games to Linux, TF2 would likely be one of the first, as it's the game they do all their testing on. Although, they did port Portal to Macs first...
With character draw way up and from a high vantage point, sometimes you can see creatures very far away.
With proper angle and height advantage, it appears that I should be able to strike these creatures with an arrow. But no matter how many times I've tried it just looks like the arrow disappea...
Related to this question, I am trying to create an elevated surface where I can put water. The surface below is made up of ladders/signs to keep the water flowing down, but still allows items (e.g., eggs) to pass through.
What is the optimal pattern for the ways in which the ladders would be lai...
It says on the wiki page and in this question that you can change you skin online, but my brother actually bought the game and we just share it and play in offline mode.
Is it possible to do this offline? I've tried changing the char.png file, and it changes my image, but it also changes both of...
@Ullallulloo I've just tested it, you use what ever skin the name has assigned to. For example if you give yourself the name DMA57361 you use his skin.
@Aeo No thanks, I've got it sorted, sorry for the bother.
@Ullallulloo I'm not sure of the details though, I don't know whether you need to have logged in at least once while online for the server to save your skin or something.
I started playing Deus Ex 1 almost 7 years ago, but never finished. Needless to say, I don't have the game media anymore, but I would like to finish that game before starting Human Revolution.
I have an Xbox 360, a Mac Book Pro, an iPhone, and an iPad.
What is the easiest, guaranteed to work, a...
Sorry @RonanForman , boss decided that the last two hours of the workday was the best time to come in and talk about his arthritis, update me on what "those damn democrats" are doing now, and inform me about Google's latest attempts to screw him out of the top search engine results... ... ... ...
A few times, I've had to vanquish an enemy in their home.
However, even after they're defeated, all of the possessions in their house are still marked as "Steal" instead of "Take". Are there still negative consequences for taking things from the houses of a slain enemy?
I've been wanting to play a game whose demo I enjoyed very much back around 1999.
It is
A third-person-shooter where you control a hovering aircraft/ship of some sort.
You start in the atmosphere of a planet with a limited fuel supply and must avoid being shot down by enemies or turrets and als...
With the new potion brewing system in Minecraft, I thought I'd set up a farm for Nether Warts, but there seems to be a logistics problem here.
If I plant 1 Nether Wart on some soul sand, and then later harvest it, I get 1 back.
In other words, there appears to be no way to actually farm these. ...
I've been wondering if I can choose to suicide from the game menu without hurting my team, but too nervous to try it.
Occasionally I'll find myself super far from the action, or regret that I picked the wrong class, and I want to suicide to fix the issue quickly. Am I right to avoid that and pla...
All of the different vehicles have complicated HUDs that provide all sorts of useful information. Some of this information I've been able to discover through trial and error (i.e. gun position in the rectangle at the bottom of the attack helicopter gunner view), but a lot of the other HUD details...
In fact, if you look at the wiki page for the date for asked, the only information on nether warts growing is...
> As tested in Beta 1.9 Pre-release 3, Nether Wart planted on Soul Sand in the Overworld and provided with adequate light (light level lower than 8, the Nether's natural ambient light level) will not grow.
Which contradicts what people said, meaning the wiki could very well have been wrong at that point.
Further proof that Stack Exchange is doing a lot of good for the internet.
