floppy there is no reason you ever have to state how you received a game in a review of it.

I see your point..

On another note, how can I review something that won't even work

ffs... I didn't even mean to put such focus on it, it was just the most logical way of starting a sentence and talk about Rage -.-

sigh, everyone misunderstands me..

I was cautious playing rage because I heard all the bad things about playing as an AMD user.. And true enough, I can either choose from a low-performance 11.8 driver, or a well performing RAGE-fix driver (11.10?) that causes artifacts all over the place... the game is unplayable in both states and the lack of Video options is a disgrace from a company like id...

I have yet to hear a reason why DRM is ever a good idea. It has done nothing to stop or slow down piracy.

That it's not a good idea is beside the point. It's a reactionary measure, and the cause is software piracy.

What other way is there to read "borrowed" when you say it?

FIFA 12 is the ultimate football game. For all the new haters that don't like the new defending system, it's because they actually don't understand how to play football.

I understand football quite well, actually.

Shockingly, so far (with the exception of the main game not being co-op) it is everything I wanted it to be so far and I am loving it.

I "rented" my copy on my "Game Pass" from "Blockbuster" for play on "my" XBox360 that I "bought" at "Best Buy."

Whew, saved myself some crucification there...

I didn't have any driver issues on my console.

No issues with texture loading?

Rage works very well on my nVidia card. There's a config file that drastically reduces the texture popping issues.

Apparently there was also an update today that is supposed to help. Adds more configuration options as well. Forced autoconfig was a terrible idea.

I tried to play stalker again.

Holy shit, it's even more terrible than I remember.

When I first played Stalker, I turned right out of town instead of left. Came across some soldiers with bullet-proof heads that took like a thousand shots to kill. With that behind me, my enthusiasm for the rest of the game was drained and I didn't make it very far.

I kinda liked STALKER, can't say I can stand playing it anymore though, nor did I feel any appreciation for the expansion packs..

EDIT: And I never finished STALKER as far as I remember, the last level at the powerplant was horribly hard to survive thanks to helicopters and lack of directions..
