Be getting this later.

So glad for this splitscreen, have to give that a test with a friend at some point.

The new menu design is fantastic. The game is now in version 2.0.
Hopefully they can bring in some more updates such as splitscreen online and at least a basic ranking system.

shelbygt336278d ago

it'll be officially out "soon". Before the 19th, which is when the Titan pack is out.

Wait, it's safe? I just heard that some bad things were happening with it on PS3. Not updated in case.

shelbygt336278d ago

i don't think it's officially out yet, but you can get your hands on it if you wanted to. that's how i interpret it.

I_am_rushin6278d ago

Basically here's the picture.

The patch 2.00 which adds split-screen and trophies is separate from the Titan Pack (which will be a free expansion pack available from the PS Store) they were both set to be released today. The Titan pack got delayed 2 weeks, but the patch went live in Europe and will go live in the U.S. "soon". My guess is late tonight or tomorrow.

Trophies and everything eh? Got to give props for Epic on at least not abandoning there old games. Not to mention such an underrated one.

Proxy6278d ago

No overpriced DLC is always nice.

W1ldWolf6279d ago

update is not live that i can tell, tried the game a couple of times this evenin and still at version 1.20 hmmm

andron6279d ago

Some sites says so, but I don't know. Have sold it...

W1ldWolf6279d ago

yeah I am in the US so you may be right.

shelbygt336279d ago

I'll fire this one up tonight and report back. I, for one, think this game is vastly underrated. I like it a lot - fast, pretty decent graphics and a little addictive.

phosphor1126278d ago

...unless you thing Gears 2 looks "decent" as well. They use the same UE3 iteration, most of the shaders are straight rips from Gears 2 also.

shelbygt336278d ago

well... I think the graphics are decent. Perhaps my standards are lower than yours, lol.

brycespitler6279d ago

till the 19th

sorry guys

i was letdown too

but look on the bright side

killzone 2 is out right now for everyone to enjoy

and if its your kind of thing then RE5 is out on the 13th.

...i was looking forward to the trophies but oh well

Tech Focus - Motion Blur: Is It Good For Gaming Graphics?

Opinion is divided on this one for sure! Is motion blur good for gaming? Why do developers include it?

TheOptimist2879d ago

I hate any game that has motion blur and the first thing I do is switch off the motion blur in games. It just makes me nauseous.

XentaJones2879d ago

motion blur makes me sick... so its off.

OpenGL2879d ago

I agree with Alex here, many implementations are terrible but when it is done right it improves the experience.

TheSplooge2879d ago

I always turn it off. Along with depth of field.

Mr_Wilson2879d ago

Those plus vignetting, chromatic aberration, and film grain.

Let’s be Honest, DOOM Looks like the Best First Person Shooter We’ve Seen in Ages

Alex from GamersFTW writes:

“In all seriousness though, I feel like DOOM’s success will be measured by how much the game has to offer. Graphically it’s looking spectacular, and I’m sure the latest multiplayer trailer caught all of our attention. Personally, the game is beginning to remind me of those late nights playing Unreal Tournament 3, which is totally a good thing. This, in addition to the promise of user-generated content, is making DOOM look like the best first-person shooter I’ve seen in ages.”

The campaign looks brilliant, like a true nostalgia trip to the original DOOM titles of old! The multiplayer equally looks like a trip down memory lane to fast-paced and frantic arena games a-la Quake, and honestly the MP REALLY makes me want to the get game at launch to capitalise on the hype. Problem is I'm not overly fussed with multiplayer typically in games, they can get weary after a while, and buying a game solely for its MP is risky - especially on console - as it's heavily dependant on the community!

Rock to my left, hard place to my right..

EDIT: On the MP note, does anyone know if it'll have bots available, similar to Unreal Tournament 3? I still give that a quick play time to time with bots (and all the mad mutators).

c00lvilKid693710d ago

I’m exactly the same, usually multiplayer games are of no interest to me. But DOOM has sparked my curiosity, especially as someone who used to enjoy multiplayer first person shooters like Quake/Unreal. Totally understand your concerns about it being heavily dependant on the community, too. Which is just another reason they should include bots, in case the numbers need to be made up. I’m hoping the community will be good, considering the creative freedoms they’re handing over with the SnapMap thing.

esmittystud1013710d ago (Edited 3710d ago )

Its basically a "console" ahead, in terms of graphics, of another shooter called Homefront thats getting ready to release. LOL

wakeNbake3710d ago

Well thats just a low budget turd, no comparison at all.

mezati993710d ago

i am gonna have to agree with this
