Me too. At a pound it's a steal, less than a sandwich.

Unreal imports anything from an FBX. If you can export from Blender as an FBX format, then it will work with Unreal. I just did a quick search for "FBX Export blender" and found a script which will do it. If you use that script it should work; no guarantees though.

I agree with pretty much everything, with the exception of "Very little for single player".

The world tour has 58 events. If each one only took you 5 minutes to complete, that's 5 straight hours of pure game play, just for world tour. Plus, you can't even unlock everything until you've played world tour on expert difficulty, which is not unlocked until completing the game on hard difficulty.

Therefore, that's another 5 straight hour...

According to play.com, they have the game listed for a 4/12/2009 release:

"Due for release on 04/12/2009"

Hmm You've gotta compare Master Chief and Solid Snake as one phrase rather than each word as searching for

Solid Snake

Will bring up articles relating to both "Solid" and / or "Snake". I'm assuming that "Master" is quite a popular word - especially on the internet :D

Okay... A CPU generally acquries info from both northbridge and southbridge and "calculates" the queries and sends back the results... In lamest terms, it does a bit of rendering, but the GPU does most of the rendering... Comparing a pre-rendered video to a video which renders on the fly in terms of CPU power is similar to comparing a DVD against a Game in terms of CPU power... If he's asking this, then he should be asking "Look at the quality of [insert optical disk drive here...

Okay... That looks like Pseudo Code... I'm a coder and It looks like a high-level scripting language, something similar to LUA... It means:

If the variable "s" is equal to "Alpha Zone 3" then run the function OpenDoors and pass the parameter of the 9th index in the array Alpha Space...

Now... Assuming "s" is an event variable holding the string value of an area name, and the event is "enter area" or something... Then we can ass...

If you're talking about flops as in the AMOUNT OF GAMES SOLD - of course the PS3 had a lot of flops. HOWEVER, What I'm talking about is the gameplay, graphics etc etc.

Now... A few of you have rated Resistance 2 down as a "flop". If you're saying that due to the amount of copies sold; Okay - fair dues... However, regarding visuals, gameplay, replay factor and all the other aspects which makes a great game, it excelled in ALL areas! Have you even played Resistance2 to ca...

Wow... I'd never expect... The same thing happened with the Bugatti Veron vs the Fiat Punto!!! Why did the Fiat Punto sell more? :o!!! Man - this crazy economy and stuff - I just don't get why people buy twice as much if it's twice as cheap....

The new mods that got added were easier.... That means all the ones you previously won are now still won on "elite" mode...

Maybe he, like me,gets enjoyment out of programming. I code for Counter-Strike: Source and actually spend more time coding than playing it... Call me a geek I don't care - but maybe this guy actually liked the challenge of progrmaming and building a robot... I think the achievement is amazing. Hey - if nobody was interested in these sort of things - you probably wouldn't be sat talking to on N4G over the internet right now...

Okay... To really get current players locations you need to access the dll of the game and each game is different... There's no hardware possibly that can do this - only software to access the dll's functions using complex signature scans to access hidden methods and get content, store them in some sort of RAM, manipulate, then access YOUR client game again to alter the way things are done - most likely through console commands. This is easily possible on your PC - but in a controller not lik...

I have no problem rating this an A-... Heck source games are amazing games and I generally do most of my coding inside this engine - it's fantastic and easy to learn. However, when they rate Resistance 2 a B- (or B+ I forgot) it totally shows how biased they are!

I'm not disagreeing that this game isn't good (The PC version is great in fact) but resistance 2 is so much better hands down... How they can even rate L4D Higher than R2 is beyond me...

In fact - Gears only...

@meluvulongtime and others who judge the length of single player

Okay... I agree - it's short... But have you ever heard of Team Fortress 2? Day of Defeat Source? Half-Life 2 Deathmatch? Counter-Strike: Source? They're all EXCELENT games by Valve, yet none of them have a single player option. I only think Valve put in a single player on this game to add a little story in to it, they basically wanted yet another multiplayer game in their collection like so many others. In fact, ha...

Hmm... This article isn't comparing 360's to PS3's... It's comparing Consoles to PC's... And I agree some what.... At the moment, most gaming software is still sold on consoles - thus the online community for consoles is greater. Until people move over to PC's, I don't think they're going to succeed... Heh - I'm a coder myself, and I have lots of High end PC games (Crysis, Crysis Warhead, BioShock, Left4Dead, TF2 etc etc) and a great PC (Q6600, 8800GTS 4GB RAM), but I still play on my PS3 jus...

Hmm.. No offence but that video is pre-rendered meaning it's pretty pointless... If it's not running in real time then it's not doing the real stuff... It's similar to a video made by the engine rather than the engine running in real time.

I am a software developer who designs applications in C++... I'm here to clear up a few things about engines..

1. They're virtually ALL written in C++ (In fact, find me one that isn't)... C++ compiles to assembly language which is "machine type" language which cannot be read - it'd be pretty pointless allowing others to take your engine without making money from it...

2. Engines don't have much to do with the detail of graphics - they only run the compiled ...
