if you take the exact game of skyrim, and would have slapped a new ip name on it like if it came out and was called "Kingdoms of Amalur: Dragonborn" made by these guys, most of the ratings would be lower than it is now. but since its called "elder scrolls V" it gets an automatic higher review scale.

People have blind devotion to things and have biases, even if its subconscious.

how about having it return to its adventure roots as opposed to pure over the top action. Uncharted 2 was the perfect balance between the two...uncharted 3 went too far in one direction.

it would seem his opinion is minority. this game feels awesome, and the art style can lead to some beautiful environments. This whole bashing games for "cartoony" feel needs to stop. Its ok, playing a cartoony game wont hurt your masculinity.

Okami, Wind Waker, Sly Cooper, Braid, WoW, XIII, TOR...just to name a few badass games with "cartoony" graphics. Much more pleasing to look at for long periods than a game that has one color tone. I'm an Elde...

wii-u can bring much needed innovation to all genres on a console. the design is there, lets hope the specs are there.

counter strike is fun and i'm looking forward to GO. I actually loved SOCOM confrontation, after its messy launch it became a solid game. i hope the perk based shooters becomes what defines the current gen, and that they get dropped for the most part next gen. when shooters go back to being skill based, i will go back to playing them.

F2P sucks. The game quality seems to be lacking because they can't take too much of a risk on something their not sure will make profit. also the game sucks unless you buy access to cooler things. I will always be a fan of a universal system where everyone pays the same price and has the same access to things. F2P is more like "wow dude where'd you get that gear!? I paid 20 bucks for the questline..." hmm

wow, never thought i'd hear this from a cod dev. The very reason i hate Reach, COD, and uncharted MP are PERKS. Uneven, unskilled mess. Thats why i tend to stick to older shooters but unfortunately counterstrike and TF2 are the only old ones with significant player bases.

I am playing tribes ascend, which has perks, but not the type of perks COD has. These are more supplemental, passive perks as opposed to, "i'm not good enough so i'll let my grenade pop ...

he's talking about intel CPU's not built in graphics. and yes the intel CPU's are much better.

I still play wow because the raids are consistently fun to play with friends. Im also in the tribes ascend beta and it is downright amazing.

@geth1gh, im a huge star wars fan and i can't get into swtor at the moment. i'm hoping the game will find its calling by the first expansion and then i'll give it a go for sure.

i've always used nvidia including the build i made last week. some games are optimized better for certain GPU's but it seems like theres more optimization focused for nvidia.

if i ever use amd it'll come down to a cost thing.

lets hope Lucasarts makes it up by making next gen a great generation of much sought after SW games. having skipped a generation for BF3, jedi knight, and republic commando will make the comeback that much more awesome.

me and my friends always system linked halo 2 and had radars disabled, it was amazing. When i jumped online..the whole experience was downgraded due to the way radar completely changes the flow and strategy of the gameplay.

i want this now. LOVE the jedi knight series. why lucasarts do you deprive us of amazing, GOTY quality titles like Jedi Knight, KOTOR3, republic commando, and battlefront 3 in favor of shit like TOR and force unleashed!?

i hate radar systems in online shooters. they borderline ruin the experience. instead of people being aware of their surroundings they spend most of their time looking for red dots.

there are a lot of rpg's better than skyrim, which had the complexity of a CoD game.

i can't wait for the half-life 3 announcement with a new source engine to make this list obsolete.

console graphics war is like comparing the best of a bag of rotten apples. they've looked bad in comparison to pc's for years. uncharted 2 does look great, but not as good as the witcher 2, or BF3 and Crysis 2 on PC.

I imagine the best looking console game in 2012 will be a wii-u title, as much as that hurts fanboy ears.

the witcher 2 on all ultra high settings is a generation above console games right now graphically. beefy pc's can play games at twice the settings as consoles with 1600p at the moment. yes they are much, much better right now, considering consoles are playing games with medium pc settings and 540p-720p resolutions, and still only hitting a 30fps average with frequent dips below.

because ps3 fanboys haven't had their "year of teh ps3" yet?

i've been gaming next gen for years now on pc. Dark Souls, Mario, and Zelda were the only reasons to play consoles for the last couple of years.
