It's a lot of fun, and better than railroad tycoon imo.
Plus it's now free for download (full game) from here:

NFS:Shift
I haven't played a racing game on PC since Underground 1...shit loads of fun D:
Going back in the day
Oh great thanks for the heads up for the free Railroads. It's a game i've always wanted but never got around to buying.
Yeah I want it too, but the download and the installer both say it's the demo, so what is it?Spidery_Yoda wrote:

Edit: It is the demo, where's the full game?

I've been wanting to say this for 4 days, but yes. I excitedly downloaded it only to find that it's just the demo. I was sad .
Sorry guys, found out that what I downloaded was the full game from a not so legal source.Spidery_Yoda wrote:

I'd read the full game was released, but that was for Sid Meier's Railroad Tycoon, not Sid Meier's Railroads.
Oh well. I'll just have to keep waiting until i have an income then.
lmao, is that borderlands?
yep. It's quite a funny game, and it references everything.ICCULUS wrote:

How do you take screenshots in Borderlands? The ol' prntscrn key doesn't seem to do it for me.Miggle wrote:

At the moment i'm playing through what must be the most immersive game ever, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. And definitely also one of the creepiest/scariest. I'm on my way to lab X16 (or is it 18?), and i'm getting double vision and it's difficult to aim, there's some horrible sounds coming from somewhere, and some sort of freak stalkers are running at me on all fours and attacking me, and random objects keep lifting up into the air and then hurtling towards me. Plus zombie stalkers.
All stuff I remember from the last time I played, but I forgot how vivid it all is. How much it makes me jump.

Nope, Shadow of Chernobyl.
Using the L.U.R.K. mod which (Lucien linked me to) makes things a bit more atmospheric or something I dunno. The main differences i've seen are the removal of minimap (and general HUD cleaning up), the differently coloured night vision, the ability to actually be stealthy, reworked balance and reskinned/sounded weapons.
It also completely overhauls the look of the game, supposedly making it even more atmospheric and adding dynamic weather systems and all sorts but my settings are too low to take advantage of any of that and so it all looks identical to the normal game. Except the night vision. Actually i'm fairly sure the cloudy rainyness is new too. And it's awesome.

L.U.R.K. is an amazing mod, and it's not even easy to see that it is. An amazing amount of effort was put into subtle features that make a lot of difference to the game's atmosphere, especially the weather. Instead of vanilla STALKER's sky fading into gray and everything being shrouded in permanent fog so the devs didn't have to make distant landscapes, the LURK authors went and made it themselves. And then added a ton of different kinds of weather, before realizing they had to remake all their distant landscapes for each of the dozens of different types of weather. And they still went and did it all, just for a feature they could easily have scrapped because "well most people wont care anyway".
After all that their plans for improved AI were also fucked up by their weather cycles, again thanks to the original dev's shortcuts. So they had to remake it all a second time. LURK was delayed for months because of this but it was worth it, the AI is a LOT better, even compared to the latest STALKER game Call of Pripyat.
The amount of changes and new content is amazing, and I think they did a flawless job at implementing it, as people who haven't played the game in a long time like Yoda hardly even notice they're not playing the original. It all fits into the STALKER experience seamlessly.
It's been a month since I've played and there's been a bunch of updates already, such as porting Clear Sky/Call of Pripyat graphics to SoC. They've also almost completed a completely reworked arena (and yoda you'll be happy to know it doesn't suddenly end), and they're working on porting all Clear Sky/Call of Pripyat maps to SoC. Definitely play this if you have stalker. In fact buy stalker, then play this.

stalker is the best game I've ever played on PC, possibly ever. FACT
FPSRPG = best genre ever, guaranteed.
Don't point, it's not polite.
