MS is losing money everywhere.
Its desktop domination, which is the only front where the money comes from, will die with Google OS (Chrome + HTML5 + Javascript + Webm + Webp).
So will MS leave VG bizz?
- Bungee left
- No 1st party studios
- Kinetic milking
What do you think?
Is there anybody left at Lucas Arts still working on this title?
Will be there any kind of support after lauch?
Anyone?
Bet they are throwing everything into the SPUs this time: lighting, animations, particle system, LOD, DOF, image postprocessing.
Looks like they are using much more than the 30% Cell power from the previous title.
What's the big deal with the N3DS?
The graphics look a little bit better than the PSP.
The resolution is really crap for a brand new handheld, just take a look at any of the iPhones and Androids around to see what I'm talking about.
And Nintendo will make us buy the same games/IPs one more time?
Wow, really revolutionary.
Is this the same game engine from Kenny & Lynch 2?
The tearing is all over the place!
If they don't fix it, which looks like SE don't care as seen on K&L title, we will end with another promising game that didn´t deliver at all.
Wait a sec, less tearing on the PS3 version with the Dirt/Grid engine? Are you serious?
Let'see if Dirt 3 will make us all forget about the tear-orama from the last one.
Fingers crossed.
Sadly, not as good as Deadly Premonition (10) ?
Damn.
Blade Runner wannabe?
Demo gameplay is 25 fps average, which is far from your 30fps.
Proof: http://www.youtube.com/user...
Outside their desktop dominance, MS is becoming more and more irrelevant every single day.
Oh yeah, CVG lots of 9 and 10s to average games make them really reliable.
Agreed.
Will be seeing lots of complaing about this game when out. Good presentation and 20 hours just cant save a boring repetitive and souless rip-off game.
Game Devs = MS-Windows + DirectX
- Xbox = windows/directx box
- PS3 = proprietary OS + OpenGL-ES
What would be easier to code for????
Halo Reach pwned the japanese vg charts!
PS3 (triple buffer) = no tearing > XBOX (double buffer) tearing.
That's what he's talking about.
And a 25fps hack & slash game?
Thanks I will pass.
So DF, what do you say about this:
http://www.youtube.com/user...
Fail, fail, fail
So OXM is telling us that the game is as good as King Kong (9) and Splinter Cell: Double Agent (9).
Thanks.
Some of most boring and shallow characters to ever grace a vg.
Still looking like a Dante's Inferno syndrome title.
A polished turd with no real content, just a blend of well known game cliches.
And with the demo, we can see they've spend a lot in the presentation e not enough in engine/gameplay/new ideas department.
The game looks just OK, nothing really special.
Worst faked rain ever made.
Unrealistic wet textures, just look at the horses and werewolves.
Bad camera moviment and positions.
Shame about the gameplay. Clunsy, unresponsive and slow, what is expected from a 25fps game.
And what about some really original gameplay ideas, Mercury Steam? No?
