In the article, they actually write,
"Viktor Antonov, who designed Half-Life 2's City 17, is also on board."
To be honest, when I play resistance, all I see is HL2.
The Thief series and Splinter Cell games before Double Agent were EXCELLENT stealth games.

Of course it always depends what was bought at the time, however, new generation video cards (biggest impact on games) come out every 6-10 months. The only way to buy a computer in 2005 that used 2002 parts is to buy used, and it would be CHEAP.
Also remember that consoles are sold at a loss at launch, even the PS3 in 2006 was sold at 600 dollars, and estimated to 820 dollars to make, which means the PS3, in 2006, would need to be priced at 900 b...
No problem.
Another thing to remember, the game was one of the best looking DX9 games as well, so moving from that to DX11 (and not building the game from the ground up, similar to BF3) won't have a huge impact.
Penumbra shadows is pretty impressive and never done in any game (shadow gets blurrier depending on light source distance, object distance, and shadow distance in relation to each other) but is hard to find good examples in the game
Buying something used is nothing bad. Especially these days when EA shuts down multiplayer servers on games which takes away the argument of "used game players are added cost for multiplayer because they play longer than they expect the new game players to play"
Maybe if they didn't lock down MP to be dependent on a service, like nearly all PC games can run without a service.
$60 game that sells just 1 million at that price, and then another 2 m...
It is not just better graphics. Having more physics, bigger worlds/freedom, many more AI AND still keeping the graphics high.
I am serious, play crysis 1 on PC and notice how it is still one the of the best looking games, has levels that are the same size or larger than all battlefield games, every damn thing is part of the physics engine, the AI on the hardest difficulty is amazing.
That combination is BRUTAL on hardware. When you have LARGE areas you can ve...
"but I tend to just be playing the game more then looking around"
It was literally a graphics update, did you expect the gameplay to change?
Also, some levels really show more of the changes than others. I keep hearing the level "gate keepers" is a good place to go.
My point was that sniper reflections does not affect your aim, it gives away your position.
And if you really deal with it in "real life", id be surprised since in real life you can buy these or are used by military/mercs:

There is a difference between full on SDK of Frostbite 2 (This is not what is being asked for) and just modding tools for BF3 (maps and content)
Look to the fact there is a "crysis 2 Sandbox editor" and a "Cryengine 3 SDK".
They are completely different.
Even IF they released the SDK of Frostbite 2, they can do just as valve or Crytek has done, you can't sell the game.
Well the middleware would only be an issue if the released full on SDK.
Having a map/content editor should not violate anything.
It basically comes down to money/map packs these days. All I hope is they will do like Crysis 2, sell a couple map packs, then release the editor.
Due to so much of the game being done in real-time (SSAO, radiosity lighting, direct lights, etc), I doubt that it requires a huge computer to create maps.
"The last paragraph was really interesting and i hope you battlefield fanboys read it."

"I read a flaw about BF3 on PC even though its a flaw of COD on PC and other games on PC that don't release mod tools. I hope this helps validate my PS3 purchase because I am so immature I pledge loyalty to a company of a platform".
Oh Warprincess, does it ever get tiring? Oh that's right, you have one bubble because ...
Scope reflection means the enemy (including enemy snipers) can see you easier when you aim-down-sight and sitting still for too long. It doesn't affect how you aim, besides enemy gunfire coming at you.
The people who play World of warcraft the most aren't going around showing off specs. You are mixing two groups.
There are idiot fanboys of any platform. I own a gaming PC, 360 and PS3. The truth is though, the PC is the best experience. The ONLY reason I have a 360 and PS3 is exclusives, since I can't get them on PC.
The ONLY downside to PC gaming compared to console is the initial price of the PC (but it is worth it).
I use a contro...
@MachoMoustachio
Maybe you are an elaborate troll, but if not, you are completely narrow minded. I bet you think all republicans and democrats are EXACTLY the same amongst their group.
So when I own a high end gaming PC I built myself and Witcher 1/2, Stalker 1/2/3, Crysis/Crysis warhead and a PS3 with KZ2/3, UC1/2, MGS4, LBP, PJS1/2 and an 360 with Halo 3/reach, Gears 1/2, Alan wake, Crackdown 1/2.........what category am I? Am I a graphics whore because I d...
While this is the BEST game ever to come to the playstation in my opinion, what the hell? Can anyone confirm there is anything more beyond 1080P and anti-aliasing and smooth frame-rate? The textures look the same, all models are the same and there seems to be no added special effects, MAYBE depth of field was added in the cutscenes, can't tell.
This is a series question from a gamer who LOVES SotC. I thought there was gonna be an over-haul in these HD collections...
Really? Want to list all these things that MW3 does better than BF3?
I mean, you do own both these games that are still in development and unreleased right?
Warprincess116 is doing her normal BF3 bashing because the almighty PS3 doesn't look as good as the PC version due to DICE being crap and not having knowledge of TEH CELL.
Perfect post of hypocrisy from her calling someone a fanboy.
Lol.
Story will be better? Spec ops/Coop will be better?
You can't even make educated guesses on these.
Will have better faster-paced gameplay?
BF3 isn't trying to twitch based, it's like saying gear of war or uncharted will have a better cover system than halo. Halo has no active cover system, its not that type of gameplay.
Sell better?
That's not even part of the game. If a game sells more, it do...
Man teabagging has been around for a while, people did it in counter strike and even games before, Halo just made it known to the masses and disrespectful would tabag while saying the most obscene shit in the world.
That's when teabagging went from "haha funny" to "what the hell are you teabagging for, it was me against 4 of you and you are telling me I suck and you fucked my mom".
Yup, Thief series is one of my top 5 games of all time. I just hope they can do Thief 4 some justice. Thief 3 suffered SO bad, just like Deus ex 2, being consolized at the time for the original Xbox, the xbox that only had 64MB of ram :/
