I found some of the original Quake's monsters to be quite scary, probably the slightly jittery animation didn't help either.. it's like those old stop-motion films.
Do you like playing at 1440p or higher where you need SLi/Xfire then to maintain 60+fps?
There isn't even much of a difference between 1080p and 1440p.. literally just a little sharper on edges, and fps take a large performance hit.
That's still only 4k total in quality that's viewable, i'll be sticking to 1080p for a while yet.
You still need medium/high end gfx cards @ 1080p if you want to maintain 60+fps. Going above 1080p or 1440p now is very wasteful, you would need 2/3 gfx cards and even then wouldn't be guaranteed that high fps.
All this does is make game a bit sharper looking, the biggest difference will come in the new game engines with much better quality textu...
Dat ecchi..
Just build your own in a mini case.. 1/3 the size of a full PC tower. would fit nicely near a TV as well. Plus you can shove in a large high end graphics card because of the extra space.
I agree with most of those titles helping Wii U to shift a lot more units, though i've never really understood what's so great about Smash Bros.. I don't know what it is about that game but i get bored of it quite fast.
Latency will always be an issue with game streaming, because of the overhead between you, your isp and the server running the game. Onlive suffered from that.
Think of it this way, you have a tiny latency from your console to TV which is so small it isn't noticable. Then when you go online to play multiplayer you get around 10-20ms if the server isn't that far away and you have a good connection, again not really noticable because it's a small increase. Go a bit f...
At this point i don't see why they don't just copy an existing great co op game like L4D except with aliens and some other changes. Pretty much guaranteed to work and be fun.
Why can't they just basically copy Left 4 Dead gameplay except with some differences.
Probably the best choice, the only good alien games was Alien trilogy on PS1 and the original AVP in my opinion.. The AVP remake was also not so bad i guess.
Hoping for a L4D3 reveal at least, on Source engine 2.
I'm beginning to wonder how long it took them to make the first Source engine, 1998 HL1 - > 2004 HL2.. Plus the 1 year (i think?) delay they made since the source code got stolen.
So it took pretty much 5 years to make the Source (1) engine and Half Life 2.
It's only been just over 3 years since they started making Source 2, but if they have a much bigger team i suppose it migh...
I have a feeling Left 4 Dead 3 may well be the first game on Source 2, and if they improve it enough i wouldn't have a problem with that. There's so much more that can be done with it yet.
I had high expectations, hence i bought a 6800 Ultra card at the time just for it and Doom 3. Even though the games still dipped as low as 20fps in some sections.
HL2 was still every bit as good, or better even than i expected.
For the first Source 2 game i will also be buying a new video card, unless i have a recent one before it comes out.
I don't normally like racing games but it looks really nice!
First time i've been pretty impressed by ground textures, if you look back at other games in the past like Half Life 2, it has kinda muddy looking textures on the ground.
I'd hope it can be maxed @ 1080p on a R9 280 or 290 @ 60fps
It looks great, but if it runs poorly then it's just going to turn into a Crysis type game imo.. all eye candy but runs crappy. However, i...
Omfg, now that would truely be awesome.. in fact, MUCH more awesome than occulus rift..
Get on it, fed up of tech taking so long to advance.. I would go on about the governmennt wasting tons of cash on black projects every year, and not putting it into medical and technology advancements, but i'd just be ranting.
The Xbox Ones are releasing Jizz from all the X-rated cam spying i believe..
I just downloaded the YouTube app on my 3DS for the first time, i was surprised how below average the image quality was.
It's nowhere near the quality it should be, but i guess it's watchable.. not a patch on Vita's YouTube quality though.
Unreal engines have always had some nice lighting effects, even Killing Floor still has good lighting (if very bright in places) and that only uses UE 2.5
But yea, this is only Alpha. It will def look better than this when finished.
I stopped reading after you said Wii U is only as powerful as last gen.
That's why the Dreamcast failed, people overlooked it in anticipation for PS2.. Even though it had some great games.
So.. yeah. No.
Well, slowly but surely..
Still no news on Source 2 -.-
