EXACTLY what I've been scratching my head over this entire generation. I really can't understand why, for the first time EVER, a next-gen format actually has LESS space than a previous generation, and this is somehow okay.
Yes, I too feel this has gimped this generation considerably. What did they expect; that games were going to get smaller? I think as this generation draws to a close, more and more developers are going to go PS3 exclusive, simply because the game they want t...
While I don't think that calling it a 'visual afterthought' is fair, unless Bungie is making a new engine for this game I can't see it comparing on a graphical level to most games that will launch around the same time.
Will the game be fun? No doubt; Bungie makes good games, and their games aren't really about graphics much at all. It'll be fun, and have a multi-player that will far outlast anything else in the foreseeable future.
Bad example. Oblivion also reused textures, voice samples, and sound effects, making many areas of the world look the same, and CERTAINLY causing everyone to sound the same.
I love it that random speculation passes for news. And the more bullshit it is, the better, so I think I'll give this a shot. Wait, one more rule...everything must end with a question mark.
Gears of War 3 to star Master Chief?
Splinter Cell to include Rorschach as a playable character?
Cortana to have Kratos's baby?
Metal Gear Solid 5 on the Atari Jaguar?
Jack Thompson makes a gaming console?
Okay, so how did I do...
It's free, it's mildly entertaining, and it's kinda interesting. No reason not to watch.
Can't speak for MAG, but WKC is awesome. I almost didn't buy it due to the review scores, but after playing it myself, I don't know what the hell they were talking about. Playing online with my buddies and doing quests is just freaking FUN.
Couldn't possibly agree more.
I will agree that Valve's support for their games is incredible....so long as you're playing on a PC. Past that, they don't seem to care so much.
You'll be disappointed. I actually DARE them to make a PS3 game, and then try to go onto the PlayStation.Blog to talk to us about it. No, I DOUBLE dare them.
Yeah, Gabe burned this bridge. He basically told all of us that that we were idiots for buying something that was 'a waste of everybody's time.' The man is living in a dream world if he think the PS3 fanbase (overall) would give a crap if they started making games for the PS3.
They wouldn't get so much as a quarter out of me, I promise it.
Can't believe I'm about to say this, but I actually agree with your point about GTA. The thing I disagree with is your idea that throwing cash around is the only way to get exclusives. For the Houser brothers, simply giving them a bigger canvas on which to create something great was more than enough. Besides, with all the 1st/2nd party exclusives Sony is funding, you really think they have money to simply toss about?
Q1 2010, the 360 had Mass Effect. Same time period, and PS3...
Agent being PS3 exclusive was what made GTA4 go multiplat; that was the deal. I'd find you the PSB link, but good God man; that was more than a year and a half ago. You look for it.
I figured as much. I wasn't too worried; I knew you wouldn't give away something too crucial.
Nah, Nuri, it was a minor thing overall.
I saw that link for the vid you're talking about, and totally ignored it. Can't believe they freaking did that.
I saw you playing it, Sev, and felt it best to not disturb you. When I get the game, notification = OFF anytime I'm playing the game. I don't want anything drawing me out of that world.
Edit: @Nuri: I steered clear of reading many reviews as well. I've also ignore about 80% of the videos on the Net for this game...I wanted tot go in fresh. There was one thing Sev mentioned that I'd wish he hadn't, but from my understanding there's LOADS more to this game that anything even so...
I apologize in advance, because I don't plan on putting this delicately.
You're an idiot.
This is why developers, I imagine, can get frustrated with people. This isn't 'a hoop for you to jump through,' you moron, it's a REWARD for fans of the game who participated in the Four Days adventure, which by the way, they didn't have to even freaking do. Don't want to do it? Then wait for a week when the demo is available to EVERYONE.
This sense of entitlemen...
I took dalibor's suggestion to the next level, and actually had four different browsers up trying to get it to work. IE, Chrome (my standard), Firefox, and Opera.
Opera is the one that got it.
Bubbles, man! It freaking worked!!
EDIT: And to those that are saying it won't work on the US PSN, you are wrong. Code works just fine.
Worth a shot. Good looking out.
Can't get the site to load at ALL. Damn.
Do you ever read something that you post here, take a step back, and go, "WOW!! It is amazing how much of an idiot I am! How do I do it?" Seriously, I'm curious.
What Figboy said had NOTHING to do with simply "360 owners." Unlike you, he is capable of seeing the bigger picture. No one cares if YOUR 360 has a HDD standard. Look at it from a development standpoint. You're making a game. Can you 100% count on the fact that every 360 on the market had an H...
