80% of the items in any Elder Scrolls game.
And this has nothing to do with kinect.
But does 1 microtransaction cost more than 5 whole games? (I'm looking at you AoE online)
the beta is probably to stress test their central servers, its far too close to launch to fix any bugs (not that dice fix bugs anyway...)
The servers can only be offered by certain providers, so they have a monopoly and can charge whatever they want.
But, if it is lag free and doesn't have downtime - £65 is an ok price considering how demanding it will be to run for the hardware and the network.
Sounds great, everything I had expected.
Except I hope the lock picking is designed with mouse+kbd in mind if it is like the fallout one...
looks fun
OK. I will buy them on Steam...
Halo is a masterpiece.
Employees also quite often leak games.
Sort of.
There are a limited number of core mechanics that are possible in a FPS game in all honesty.
I think there is still room for some new arcade stlye FPSs, like a new timesplitters.
I have plenty of great FPS ideas ready to implement whenever my programming skills get up to scratch :P (more the maths that I am slow with to be honest)
Curving bullets and ricochet in multiplayer ftw...
There are a lot of great FPS...
TimeSplitters, Quake, Half Life and Counter-Strike also had an impact. Crysis... nah, maybe farcry though. System shock 2 also, maybe - because it lead to Bioshock and it also had a lot of similarities to half life but was in development at the same time.
6 is quite a short list in all honesty :P
Here would be mine:
Wolfenstein 3D
Doom
Quake
Half Life
Counter Strike
Goldeneye
damn... need more s...

or just drop the PC resolution down to whatever its rendered at on consoles.
Even people with weak/mid-range PCs will be playing it at a significantly higher resolutions than consoles will be rendering it at - at the lower res of 1440x720 or something, they could probably nearly max it out at far above 30fps (with a gpu like an nvidia 8600 or something, which you can pick up second hand for about £20 and any standard dual core or better cpu t...
Not played the witcher 1/2?
Massive!
Consoles won't have enough RAM to host a game on a map that big (though there are dedis for consoles too) - but if the level streaming is done right it should be playable but with a relatively close fog of war/draw distance.
Finally, getting back to the old map sizes! No more miniature scale BC2 rubbish.
Revamping - as in adding more locations for adverts and spam on the dashboard?
I was referring to purely motion controller games, not games designed for a controller then they add in motion control to please their publishers.
But then that forces everybody to sit through the stupid safety message >_<
Great interview. Deffo buying this one after those responses.
Looking at the most recent trailer for RO2... I can imagine what TW would be able to pull off if they were also to move into the modern setting some day :O
But for now, ww2 ftw.
lol :P
BF controls are heavy? Maybe thats a 30fps console thing because they don't feel heavy at all on PC.
Also, conquest often doesn't work on maps designed for rush - one team has a massive advantage because they spawn closer to the middle point and the map is linear so they just set up a camp wall...
