The "hardcore" gamers who don't like crap gameplay jumped ship a while ago. Just keep doing what you're doing now, it won't bring them back, and that's what this new base of fans wants. Zombies and the same laggy, overpowered guns, discombobulated multiplayer.
If this happens, and it runs PC games...you can say hello to Linux becoming the standard for gaming in a year or two. I mean, it'll still be on Windows too! (As it should) But Linux builds will start to become standard along with PC builds.
Happy day. :)
Developers are wrong?
Says the guys who have never developed for any system and just write opinion pieces on anything gaming they want. Journalism is full of monkeys with keyboards.
You're saying something physical can be changed mentally. Video games are mental process to mental process. Your example is very, very sh*tty to compare as it's something not in the same class. Maybe if you had better cognitive skills, you'd understand this situation and produce a argument with objects that are actually related to each other.
I hate to say it so directly, but...you're wrong. I know I am smart because of video games. I always grew up playing th...
Stupidity is one hell of a drug.
Always? You act as if the 7th gen was the 1st. Ever before the Wii, Nintendo was top hardware and software dog. Now they're just software, but still, doesn't excuse ignorantly stupid statement like that.
Can't stand gamers today. I'm going to play SNES and call it done.
The download is 880MB and installs to 5GB. It is 5GB.
The speed is what is most important. Although main RAM is slow, the cache being big would help depending on the speed. Basically, there's the memory hierarchy:
REGISTERS: Inside the microprocessor. INSTANT access time.
Cache levels 1-3: Very very close to the processor for L1, moves out for each level as the farther away the RAM is, the farther the signals have to travel, making it slower. Then the RAM has to react to the signals to send the right data ba...
Writing optimized code is much much much more important than anything over all. With C that's kinda hard to do, but if they know how a C compiler optimizes, they can help it along a decent amount.
Still 720p and not 1080p, but oh well, close enough for everyone I guess.
I love seeing those same animations from COD4. So nostalgic!
You're telling me the console/Accounts purchases aren't recorded in the network for your virtual account to be redownloaded to a new system for any reason?
Lawsuit incoming, rightfully. I buy (expensive) games online and there should be a system in place to ensure I can re-download and play them on another system. Period. Denying people a product they bought because they don't have THEIR WiiU will not fly in court.
It's because the tech is different. Xbox has the on board one, with a back up. I believe most do. But when you're talking 5GB, you will NOT cheaply be able to include that on the board and have a back up, just not easily doable for any reasonable price. You can do it with SD cards, but then loading the dash and features would take forever compared to a HDD. Could have had another hard drive in it that was small for it, but still it's more money. They don't want to have it cost...
They're evenly matched at the end of the day honestly. 360 does 2x as many polygons AND has 8MB of Extra fast GPU RAM for transfer that PS3 doesn't have that helps graphics a lot. But otherwise PS3 is basically an equal of 360 hardware. Don't joke yourself. While those 2 features really are nice for developers, they also don't make or break it in any way, they only enhance the system in certain areas like texture loading and polygon count. Othrwise, they're nearly the same...
This is about the 6th time this game has been released....not that I have a huge problem with that consider it's for different systems, but still...I own Defender and Robotron and Joust on Xbox as well as owning the arcade games. But now I have to buy them again for a better emulator? Bleh...at least that's one thing that's probably fixed from the XBLA version. XBLA version Defender sucks with controls. I'm 7th on Defender in the world with a score 1/10th of what I can do on a...
Not really. Been gaming for over 12 years, developing games for about 3 as a hobby. I pay close attention to game design, studio design decisions, and many close details in game like that.
In the day, some UK developers produced good software and games (See: Codemasters with the Dizzy series. Amazing games that were amazingly programmed). But today, Japan sucks (Crap stories), US sucks (average everything), UK sucks (What stuidos are in the UK outside of R*?). Games today in ...
Not in any area.
Doubt it, you don't port it to one system in a few days, it takes hundreds of hundreds of hours to meet said consoles guidelines for approval for just the interaction with the system. Microsoft certification takes more time and also is still probably not the favored console. That's it. I've talked a little with Bri Pro, too, btw. I know for a fact the programming for each system was not the problem. That is minimal for fixes. The hard part is just getting the verification for the ...
Microsofts claim process. Plus, I believe the game is a PS3 favored title because sony would pay to have it first. Microsoft didn't want it, in a nutshell.
But hey, it might release with the first patch already. That's good stuff.
EA fanboys? Just because people speak the truth makes them automatic game AND company fanboys?
Puhleasssseeee.
At least he did something useful and good for knowledge/research, unlike commenting on a video game article online.
