The only problem I kinda had with ME3s ending is that it just felt like all the choices you did from the first game right up to that point didn't mean much when all we get is a simple, "'pick the ending you really want'" type deal.

I would have much liked it if the game worked out which ending to go with on it's own based on everything I had done from the very start and not just gave me the option, which again, made it feel like everything I did didn't actually matter.

Having said that the game itself was fine, gameplay was what I expected going in.

As for the list, haters gonna hate but I think Halo 4 should've been higher at least.

You are just upset that they have the same key for jump and cover :rofl: :p

That's only a small part of it. I feel like the more features they added to the games the more uninteresting they got and they took away everything that made ME1 the great game that it is. I only managed to make it a few hours into ME3 before I couldn't take it anymore. Maybe one day when all the dlc is released and it's "done" I'll give it another chance.

How did you get to be a vet with posts like these? Seriously? I disagree with the praise ME3 gets and you take it personal?

I never take it personal. Doesn't mean I cant have fun.

Oh, right. So you're trolling. Which as a vet you'd understand is against the rules of the forums.

Why me deconstructing your opinion while having fun equals as trolling?

Okay, comeon guys. Lets focus on the games, not on personal likings and dislikings

Not to worry. I blocked him.

I think GW2 out of all the games on the list fits in at spot #1. Mostly because I've been waiting about 5 years to play it and it lived up to everything I wanted it to be and more. And out of all the games on the list besides Torchlight 2 it's the only one I've actually played. :rofl:

Though I am interested in xcom. I've heard it deserves the praise it gets from friends. No time for it though, in between playing BF3 and GW2.

Guild Wars 2 - top game of the 2012? Seriously Time?!

While i did not like GW2 as much as i liked the first one (i consider the first game one of the best game i ever played) what actually makes all the other sequels better ?

Because save for Dishonored big sequels is prety much the only thing we got this year.

My personal favority this year is XCOM.

    • Celebrating Windows XP's 25th anniversary this year

      By carols23 · Posted

      If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.

      Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
