wii fit plus? fuck off
Thumbs up to the rest of the list though. Mario kart wii was a dissapointment compared to double dash and mario kart DS though :P (stupid overpowered annoying boring bikes broke the game)
This list is missing loads.
Loads mentioned above ^
I would like to add Geralt.
I just pop a disk into my 2007 built PC and everything works fine... or just buy it on steam and it works fine...
?
#1 console ports (mostly something stupid like mouse input or lack of proper graphics settings)
#2 complication (for consumers, nooby ones)
#3 DRM (only bad games from nooby publishers tend to have annoying DRM anyway)
PC has FAR more single palyer games than consoles, more every day, at cheaper prices.
Hackers are avoided by dedicated servers, the admins can just ban them - on a console there is nothing you can do but quit ...
That is a horrible example of water by gamingbolt.
They should have the screenshot contain some objects on the other side to reflect properly, not a skybox >_<
Also, there is obvious tiling on the ps3 and 360 in the water textures. If the 360 water looks better than PC, how doesn't the PS3? The water looks almost identical on the consoles (except slight tile size differences).
I am not entirely sure but the consoles might both have ...
Only 2 different scenes were used :S what about something indoors so we can assess jaggies properly?
What about some character closeups?
What about water reflections that actually have objects to reflect instead of just cube maps? (apparently PS3's look better than 360's but I've not seen a proper comparison yet)
Stupid comparison, with no technical understanding behind it whatsoever.
WTF. Stupid site compresses their screenshots far too much.
edit: forgot to mention MGS4 in my above post, fantastic game. Only possible because of Blu-ray.
@ Aarix
idiot. learn to read properly. In no way am I a fanboy at all, I have tried all platforms and experienced the "best" they have to offer.
Everything I said was a result of what the consoles actually do/are. Saying the ps3 is better may appear like fanboyism but it is just true. Why? Because exclusives are barely part of the formul...
ps3 install base is bigger than the 360 (because like 40% of 360s sold are probably totally broken and out of warranty - though I'm guessing, I at least have 2 of them and I know plenty of people with a spare broken ones too). Only ps3 exclusives I like would be ratchet and clank games & GoW. GT5 is nowhere near as good as its predecessors. Uncharted is ok, killzone is ok; both don't even remotely live up to the hype.
The only 360 exclusive I like is halo. Fable 1...
yes, I guess.
But microsoft don't allow developers to make installation apps. The install thingy on the 360 only copies the disk, it doesn't decompress and optimise the game resources for running off a HDD.
I think their HDD decision was purely to make more money through proprietary hardware. The damn drive is a standard laptop drive anyway inside, they could have easily done it properly like Sony did with their hdd.
Mllions of dollars worth of a variable in a database?
32 bits on a server hard drive... that is all he changed.
There is no value in these microtransactioned chips.
The only value was what people would have spent on them legitamately if they had not found the option to buy them due to Ashley's successfull software exploitation.
All the people who paid Ashley for chips should also be prosecuted for buying stolen goods then; because...
It's up to the developer to make proper use of the engine.
Take Bioshock for example, it managed to avoid having a stupid cover system :P
I share your annoyance for the engine, but in actual fact it is a really great piece of software engineering. In particular, the rendering.
Stupid touch screen controls. Nobody wants them for proper gaming, lack of tactile feedback anyone?
edit: nvm misleading article
Video game testers don't just play the game lol.
They follow repetitive and strenuous specific tests multiple times a day for every build.
They need good technical knowledge of programming and game production methods and excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Being good at playing games, or liking playing games, or even having played games much in your life - none of these things are requirements at all (hence why nearly every...
They have NO idea of the meaning of the word addiction.
Sony lost it when GTA 4 wasn't a playstation release first. That is pretty much the sole reason. GTA 4 being a ps3 only game at launch would have caused an incredible increase in sales - also there may have been far more content due to Blu-ray.
Also, I am not quite sure why the ps3 is "obviously" more powerful. Yes, the Cell is by far the best CPU in a console and better than most PC CPUs - but the rsx is not as good as the 360's xenos. Like I said about GTA...
yes, thats exactly what I was saying about the article, well done.
debatable, maby it's an action-adventure-rpg, depends which one from the series perhaps.
but I suppose, it isnt a true jrpg in the sense that the others listed are.
well I suppose I have totally different tastes, so it doesn't help when I am not a very fair person anyway :P
L.A. Noire should be good, that is true.
Red Faction has been bad after the first, though they did try new things in the 3rd installment which was nice - however the game as a whole was a letdown. They need to bring back the proper destructable environment.
The other 2 games were clearly listed as a scraping of evidence from the author to ...
razer noobblade. biggest piece of gimmicky rubbish ever.
razer can't do anything good anymore. They keep running off the success of the deathadder mouse :/
