its only been 6 years since the last half life incursion, not that long imo. and its not as if valve has been twiddling their thumbs the whole time. They have been keeping busy providing gamers with tons of content, including CSGO and Portal 2.

The reason I think they're tight lipped about the next half life is a few reasons

1. the HL2 beta leak debacle
2. the huge community backlash at pushing out L4D2 super early within a year of L4D1
3...

No, PC gaming is cheaper in the long run. I get far more bang for my buck with a gaming PC than a single console.

When people say console gaming is cheaper all they look at is the initial price, and fail to account for subscription fee to play online, the, on average, higher price of games, the probability that you will upgrade your console at least once to a higher memory/slimmer model or repair it at least once, and after you consider all those costs console gaming equalize...

so is this like a dystopian society game? is that why everything is in ruins

Nope, once something passes the threshold of 120 fps, the screen vanishes

/sarcasm

Yes you can see 120fps. And yes you can perceive a difference

I think dead island sucked because the dyling light devs were working under really crappy publishers (deep silver)

unfortunately these jokers own the metro series now, who knows what will happen to it

"and we will not move on to other projects until we are sure that Battlefield 4 meets – and exceeds – your expectations. It is the right thing to do."

Yet they sure as hell got time to get them DLCs out the door two weeks early on the XB1. I don't care which platform you play on, but if you are shelling out 100+ dollars for this one game, you should get content first and your game should work

It probably has to do with gameplay reasons why 1 bullet to the head isn't a 1 hit kill. I mean if you wanted realism, getting shot once by any weapon should be enough to drop you

you pay ~900 bucks and you get

A fully functional computer that can perform all the functions of a normal computer

A high end machine that will last you the course of a console generation before you'd want to upgrade

A gaming machine that obliterates the next gen consoles in terms of graphics

A massive library of games to select from that span a couple decades back, that are cheap as well. With next gen consoles you are s...

'Instead of causing an uproar and inadvertently advertise this horrible idea. I wish we could take it away, bury it, and take away his right to free speech.'

we must defend the most heinous acts of free speech in order to maintain the best parts of it. Its the only way it can ever exist

Believe it or not the guy actually has a pretty passionate message about gun control should you actually lend him your ears for a moment and not overact towards a crudely made flash game

"when almost every PS4 game supports native 1080p...."
"almost every..."

nothing to brag about.If they wanted something to brag about, they'd be able to say 'all' instead of 'almost every', and '60fps and 1080p' instead of just '1080p'. Just stating the facts.

I don't blame people for not wanting to buy it. 100+ dollars for the game if you want all the stuff is a pretty insane price

@Lord

idunno, I'm just real tired of the hypocrisy of sony fans constantly hounding the XB1 for being so inferior and then turn around and act like graphics don't matter when toe to toe with a machine that is actually better than it. In reality the graphical difference between the XB1 and PS4 is marginal at best, and the only real difference is between a next gen console and a mid/high end PC. People act like the teeny tiny difference between Xb1 and PS4 is like the g...

"Even tho we all know it makes no sense"

I don't see why consoles deserve special treatment and are suddenly not allowed to be compared to another piece of hardware that is used for gaming

4449d ago 3 agree15 disagreeView comment

ah yes...the classic sony response when they are called out on their hypocrisy for championing graphics when comparing their hardware to the XB1, but suddenly having a complete reversal in opinion when comparing their hardware to even a medium spec PC. I don't think I'd be able to handle that kind of dissonance

"i have yet to see gears3 or killzone 3 beaten apart from res........... and framerate and texture quality and anti aliasing and performance and tesselation and DX11 features and aesthetic"

Fixed that for you. Look at any high spec PC game and you will see it beats those two games in pretty much all categories I listed. Same for pretty much every other PS4 or XB1 'next gen' game which can barely handle 1080p and barely meet 60 fps, PC standards since for lik...

The game looks nice but the world itself looks unusually static. Some foliage moves when you interact with it, but the majority of the other things in the green forests, like all the trees and leaves and what not, is completely static. Any immersion provided by how beautiful the forest looks is quickly killed by this lack of movement. same thing happened with AC3, looked great but everything was too static
