I know people have a thousand other arguments against this game, but I really do think that DINO would have generated far less hatred if his aesthetic character design had originally given him white hair.
Then we'd have seen it in action and the public opinion would have dropped like a rock.
WWE's hilarious. It's a hammy soap opera, only with less fights
I remember playing the first one when I was like 10 years old but quitting because - being only 10 years old - I wasn't chopping up enough bad guys and the RPG system was a mite too complex for my tiny attention span. Is it worth revisiting and should I be anticipating the release of this new game?
Good god those textures look horrendous.
Oh look another one
What? Not WarZ? Promising to be everything DayZ wasn't (i.e. stable) but turning into easily the biggest bust of the year? I honestly felt betrayed when I played the alpha. It's broken, sound files are missing, animations are stuttered and dodgy at best and for the false advertisement on the game's Steam Page (and Sergei Titov's subsequent interview by Gamespy: http://uk.pc.gamespy.com/pc...
You know what? I take back EVERYTHING I've ever said about this game.
This is going to be the comedy event of the year.
God Hand on Hard against Great Sensei.
Fuck.
EVERYTHING.
The reason behind the failure of the Half Life 2 episodes is because Valve simply took so damn long making each one. The idea behind episodic titles is 'releases with regular, consistent, development times' and Valve simply isn't capable of achieving something like this because, unlike other developers, there are no project leads at Valve getting on anyone's back telling them to work on Episode whatever. Groups of Valve employees work on what they want to work on, whether it&#...
Tomb Raider 2013 seems decent but not GOTY material imo. I won't say anything about GTAV because I never really got into that franchise all that much. The Last of Us seems pretty stand-out and while I'm sure it'll be good I just can't see it taking GOTY, same with Bioshock: Infinite. Honestly, I think if anything has a real shot, it'll be Watch Dogs but that's only provided Ubisoft can deliver more like what we saw at E3.
Hear hear. Granted it was a POS when it launched but since those dark times Valve has only added and expanded and I now firmly believe that Steam is something no self-respecting PC Gamer should be without. The offline support could be a little better (go online to go offline... uh, what?) but overall it's a fantastic program and it burns my ass seeing people slam on it for no adequately explained reason.
As awesome as the cartoon show was I'm not sure how good a game would turn out to be, even if it is made by Valve.
Goddamnit N4G get your shit together, this is days late
Hey Vaas. Check out this little number
I can't take anyone who says something like 'Games were better back in the day' seriously. There's wistful nostalgia - a fond memory of a certain segment of a game - and then there's going overboard, especially when some of those games weren't all that good to begin with. Long-running franchises like this suffer the most from nostalgia-tinted goggles I feel, which hurts genuine efforts to inject new life into a dying franchise... not that this is one of those instances...
I guess this means 'But can it run Crysis' is now relevant again...
The camera angle was pretty awkward at times, only being able to adjust it diagonally, occasionally I had issues with the interiors of particularly spacious UFO, and there's the whole nonsense with being able to shoot through two walls and a dumpster skip to cap an alien the size of a mini-fridge.
None of that stopped it from being the remake/successor that the XCOM franchise deserved. It even sold well to boot; 'Turn-based strategy won't sell' Pfft.
Revolutionary France?
I honestly thought it was a bit of a cop-out placing AC3 in the American Revolution when the hints beforehand pointed so strongly towards France.
Title's a little misleading; all it is is Marc Laidlaw who happens to work at Valve saying he'd like to see a film and who he'd like to see directing it if the rights were ever obtained.
I've got two friends, both avid gamers who have preordered this. One says she likes the original series, the other had heard the name thrown around now and then but hadn't actually played any of them. I saw them sitting on a couch at uni playing through the demo one day and asked them if they thought it was any good (which is when I found out that they'd both preordered it). Both of them said yes and, curious, I asked them what they enjoyed about it.
The first fri...
