Watching the show is giving me the itch to play again but I'd like to jump right to the 3rd game. Will I miss much skipping 2 entirely? --- I don't like stuff that sucks <cite>Mike Xtreme posted [p:932112516] in Do you nee... [t:78285638]...</cite> <quote>I bought the bundle a few years ago.

Definitely puts higher stakes on the romantic subplot --- http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i215/estonc/grizzly_bear_chairs_2.jpg https://imgur.com/8kjZU <cite>eston posted [p:932112600] in Do you nee...

There's a decision you can make in TW3 that changes the game slightly based on TW2 choices, so it helps to not go into it blind (you can miss out on a sidequest, etc.). --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame <cite>Shotgunnova posted [p:932113266] in Do you nee...
