You make some valid points and loose credibilty by opening your post in a seriously immature manner.
Like many of the comments on this site! GOW is this, GOW is that,its just Sooooo wonderful and brilliant and superb and.....and....Saying all games are repetitive, because of their genre is like saying all comedy films are the same or all horror books are the same simply because comedies make us laugh or horror stories scare us.Do you really believe that? If you do, then i suggest you play GOW through one more time,then play through Halo (original not 2)if you seriously think they are in anyw...
Graw was o.k, but had some major problems itself, felt a bit clunky and slow almost bordering on frame slips. However, i do agree about GOW being a ten minute feast,the single player mode anyway.The character models in GOW where pretty neat and the cut scenes truly great, but the game, very average.GRAW2 has potential, but it better be 100% improvement on first one, remember this time round there's no shortage of choice.
I need him back in GRAW! Do you guys really think that game prices would come down if pirating stopped altogether? Nah, it wouldn't just as car insurance premiums haven't come down despite tough legislation that has dramatically reduced the number of people on the road without it (U.K).It's a smoke screen for greedy devs and publishers,a scape goat nothing more. Capitalism is fine for those with capital. I don't support his actions from a moral standpoint, but i still haven't heard of many de...
First off guys, forget about p.c ports for consoles. even modest p.c's are far more powerful than any next gen console, both in terms of C.P.U and G.P.U,memory and storage space, thats just the facts.However i gave up P.C gaming after many years and got a console and here's why. I was fed up of constantly having to upgrade not just my graphics card, but memory type, c.p.u and evens motherboards just to be able to run latest games( al la PCI express graphics from AGP etc)It wasn't just about m...
I'm with MicroGamer on this one.By definition Ad's have to get your attention to work.Now, they may start off like those in GRAW (Nokia) fairly unobtrusive even to the point of blending in with the game,but give the marketing guys their chance and games are doomed.Next it will be pop ads during loading screens,then compulsary ads before starting a game, until finally you get the; 'This game was brought to you by the good people at....' Boycott games with advertisements before its to late!
Racism,Racialism and bigotry is always futile,regardless of who its aimed at,it reduces the whole of the human race. I feel like i'm putting this to a class of 10 year olds. Any more of this rubbish and i for one will be asking for the rules of the site to be enforced! Back to consoles and games,please.
Thats just mean and blatantly untrue,but funny!
Now be more contructive in future :)
In the old days you knew exactlty where you stood.If Jeff minter or Archer mclean expressed an opinion it meant something.They where coders,programmers and hackers (Hackers as in the correct and original interpretation).They had to really understand the hardware in order to practise their art.What the hell is a dev? As i understand the term, it Could be anyone from an 3d artist to a musician to a tester. Hardly an authority on a piece of hardware.Beware of 'DEVS' bearing promises. Just an old...
I can't argue there are better things to come from ps3, thats undenialble. However, it won't be through EA who give games developers a bad name.They seem to excert to much influence over their developers and in the end make sure we get generic multiplatform trash.Of course if we didn't buy it then may be they wouldn't produce it. Typical EA game; Nope you can't go that way, but i won't to. Sorry you got to get in this truck and go this way and shoot this many germans before you can go to the ...
Hmmm. Don't see the attraction myself. Graphics are average and physics are nothing special based on the little i have seen, but then again i said the same about GOW. Guess next gen for me is a ways off. On balance this isn't my type of game anyway , but it really doesn't look that good graphically maybe the gameplay is its strong point otherwise its a pass
This comparison is, to anyone with more than two brain cells completely null and void. I could probably produce the same results from any one of the consoles by using different TV's.I am convinced no 'blind test' would be conclusive.I will repeat my view that i believe 360 will prove to have better gpu in long term ,but that doesn't mean i think it will be the better console overall. Final point, i have to agree with the other guys about #19 i'm sorry, but this guy is confused to say the leas...
You where in South America in the Month of Novemeber. What all of it? I don't want to get geo political or anything, but isn't Brazil the most unequal country in the world, next to the good ol' U.S of A.of course? How about we feed people before selling them video games.Or at least give free medicine with every xbox sold. sorry its off topic, but had to be said.
Thanks for explaination, but details are a bit beyond my technical knowledge.However, you are sort of proving my point, eh, i think. These days programming languages are so generic(trashy high level crap)that routines don't need to have specific knowledge of hardware do they? I thought thats what middleware does.Its not so much the generic code, but more how the hardware actually implements the code thhrough lower level access.After all,it still comes down to machine code at some point.On por...
I'm not gonna fight this one out with ya buddy.(excuse these terrible puns)I'm not here to defend Sony and certainly not EA.I take on board what you say about Sony's claims and thats a fair point,if you talk the talk you better walk the walk. I just think that ported games are not a strong basis on which to bash the whole console. I really do think that the 360 will prove to have the edge graphically, but a port of fight night is not the deciding factor for me. Just my take on things.
I have been the first to criticise the apparent lack lustre ps3 graphics showing so far, but just to add a bit of fairness here. We have yet to see a 360 game ported from the ps3,now that would be an interesting comparison for sure.someone in an earlier post suggested that only a small amount of code would be transferable between the two consoles.This i think, is mistaken.It is far more likely that the problems of slowdown seen on ps3 version are the result of large amounts of code being por...
O.k Sir/Madam he we go,
I own a 360, i don't own a PS3.
I don't hate anyone or anything. (can you even have hate crimes against consoles anyway?)
I do apologise for not ending my Gears comments with 'in my opinion' However, they are my honest opinion of Gears of war, having completed the game on hardcore both single and coop modes and also having played on live. Graphically the actual player models are great, but the quality of the scenary isn't anything spectacular.I don...
To answer your question,Halo is a far superior shooter in almost every respect!
Reasonable graphics, although it's sometimes like playing a negative, because of its poor pallete choice.Formulaic,linear gameplay and terrible control system makes for a slightly above average game, albeit with nice coop and online modes. Please let the gears now grind to a halt and lets move on!7.5/10
Checks and balances are requred if we are to maintain any kind of ordered society and protect our kids. While this guy may appear to be 'off his trolley',he is in fact performing a public service. By taking to task the considered extremes,in this case violence for entertainments sake he is,i suggest,challenging us all to think about what we find morally acceptable or not.I'm not going to rant on or judge this guy one way or the other,but occassionaly peoples motives and morals need to be ques...
