I'm 38 now and been gaming since the early 1980's with the ZX80/81. Even before then my parents got a cartridge game system with pong etc on it. In the late 80's I got a Commodore 64, all my friends got Sinclair Spectrum 48k's and we played hours and hours on those. Also had Sega Megadrive, PS1/2 and now PS3 and PC.
I do find a lot of older people, around my age and older are still gaming. My mother is nearly 60 and loves her DSi, she must play that at least 3 hours ev...
I agree with you about the grain filter in BFBC1 being bad.
Can't wait for the new Deus Ex. The first is amazing.
I agree with the disguise as a opponent needs to be removed. The button layout is fine, very similar to COD if you choose the alternate layout. The layout and length between multi-player matches could do with a little tinkering. Other than those few little things, the game is amazing, I love it. Can't wait for the full release version to play on some more multi-player maps.
He should have used melee more when the helgast were so close to him. He was just shooting. It was flashing on the screen (R3) when they were close by.
Never played a Socom game before, but I'm very interested in this, It looks very good.
Me too. What I've seen so far is looking quite good.
I am mostly a PS3 gamer now, but do sometimes get a game for PC if its not on PS3.
Before I got my PS2 I only played on PC, as thats all I had at the time (so yes I was a PC gamer). I'm glad I did as the best game I have ever played was then, Deus Ex.
When I got my PS2 I changed to playing mostly that, then I got a PS3 and thats now my main choice for games.
Still play a few PC games, but I use the PC mostly for other things like surfing the web etc.
I noticed that, Jim Sterling was on the opposing side. Was just going to post about it but you beat me to it.
If I was playing I'd hunt him down and keep killing him.
That player was terrible at the game. Been playing a lot of Killzone 2 and Killzone 3 beta, and had many games where team mates don't seem to know what to do, or just get in the way. Had a few walk in front of me while shooting or throwing a grenade.
I also have a great PC, that can run all games well, but buy my games for the PS3 instead. I have a great library of PS3 games so far (85) and most don't release for PC. I also hate messing with settings and can never get my gamepads to work great with my PC (I am rubbish with KB/mouse). The PS3 is just easy and quicker.
I agree with you that the graphics and sound are good, but there was nothing great about the driving, anybody can slide and drift about like that. I should have made it clear that I meant the driving.
The video would have been better with the car doing some jumps, etc.
I have got both DIRT 1 + 2, and will be getting this, I love driving games.
My TV is only 720p or 1080i, it hasn't got 1080p. If I set my computer to any other setting, the picture is poor.
An Island in Chaos, If it does come out. Gears of War 3, The Precurser, seems a good idea, and Forza 4 seem like decent games.
I don't own a 360, but those seem like games that could be great. I might one day buy a 360, but all the games I have and are coming soon on PS3 take up too much time.
I didn't see anything great in that video either.
Deus EX is the best game I have ever played. It deserves to be on any "all time great games" list.
Those who haven't played it are, IMO, missing out on a fantastic game.
I watched this in 720p on my 37inch HDTV and its very good but not like real life. I have played Crysis 1 on the same TV at 720p and thats just as good.
Uncharted 2 wasn't too far off as good as this.
I sold my PS2 and about 30 games to my Aunt when I got a PS3. She looks after a little girl while her mum is at work, and I thought she would get loads of fun out of it. She did well for £20.
I'm not too bothered though as I wouldn't have time to play PS2 games anymore. I have too many games for my PS3 that need completing, I have 85 blu-ray games and only finished maybe 30 or so.
I did play one PS2 game on my B/C PS3, when I first got it, but it looked real bad...
Thanks. I saw my avatar picture on an article and thought it would be a fun, nice photo to have.
I have always liked FPS games, but the Killzone beta plays brilliantly, better than 99% of the other ones I've played.
Looking forward to playing this game. The first "Deus Ex" is my all time favourite game.
I got MoH at Tesco, it was around £40 on its own or you could get it with a £20PSN top up for £47, which I did.
Also COD:Blops was £40 or £45 with £20PSN top up. That is a great deal if you need a PSN top up.
I got GT5 from tesco on release day for £35.90, now it costs more.
When I got COD:MW2, Sainsburys were selling it for £26 on release day but had sold out when I got there. I went round the corner to Asda and got it for £...
