The 360 demo wasn't great but thats largely due to some poor decisions such as the lack of dedicated servers meaning 16 players, lag, smaller maps etc.
The full game will of course as stated have dedicated servers which eradicates a huge bunch of the demos problem. I've played the PC beta for about 6 hours along with a few buddies and all of us absolutely love it like mad. The Retail version for the 360 wont have the major demo issues such as lag! Very excited for it
Oh really? Had never even heard of it until yesterday, looks pretty good
"Hands On" .... all they added in the firmware was a freakin shortcut to the website. You've already been able to do this for like 9 months now. Just bookmark the iplayer site in your ps3's browser and boom there you have it.
This update is just one big list of fail. Touted to be the savior update to bring a ton of requested features its brought barely anything anyone has asked for. The only good feature is the status bar in the top right. Man they need cross game cha...
Demo had some horrible decisions made over the PC beta. Dedicated servers will fix a ton of them.
Yeah have to agree, I may bump it up by .1 or .2. Thought the pacing was fantastic, even though you backtrack they change things up on the way back. The time flew by whilst playing it, most enjoyment in a game i've had in a couple of months.
Thanks :)
Definitely, the game is an absolute ton of fun. One of the best on the XBLA, really looking forward to what these guys do next.
Sad face really wanted to play it :(
Love the people ranting when they know they'd jump for the chance to play the game :P
Bring out the Sony fanboys :P
This isn't a rare thing in gaming on any platform. When developers have early builds they're completely unoptimised and therefore pull alot from the system, be it 360, ps3, wii or some pc's
Not much of a rogue nerf with ONE ability having its damage lowered. Sounds good though
Nice update :)
I don't think this means optimized for hard drive installation, but rather optimized to be used with a hard drive. Halo 3 cached data to the hard drive to improve load times, no doubt ODST will also do this. Meaning if you own a hard drive you will get better performance out of the title.
Not to rule out that the game may run better from an install but I don't think thats what this means.
Wahey first one dead on the mark. If anyone hasnt been following the story Eidos basically offered journalists the chance to get their reviews up early before the standard embargo by rating the game 9/10 or higher. Dead on the mark at 9/10 first review in the wild before anyone else ;)
Not saying the game doesn't deserve it however as I absolutely loved the demo! Pity OPM bit the bait
Good review
And why doesn't killzone run at 60? Seriously comparing a totally different game and engine is a ridiculous argument. It completely depends on how the game has been coded and is designed.
Lmao I love it how people are saying they'd rather sacrifice a consistant 30 fps just so that they dont have to get off their arses every few hours.
I'm sure i'm not the only one whos sad that this generation of consoles have started to do away with multiple disks! I loved the feeling of getting a game with tons of disks - you just knew it was rammed with content. Like FF7 back in the day.
I own both consoles and enjoy them both. However if a game i was looking ...
If it looks good (it really does) and plays at 60fps who cares!
Course they are working on a sequel they've been saying its a trilogy for an age now. Really enjoyed the first one although the lack of variety in environments really started to get repetitive but it was good fun.
They've taken a smart art choice route instead which will allow them to make visually pretty areas without being technically outstanding. As much as some people hate on WoW this is a key reason for its success - the game can be run on a huge range of PC's yet the art style allows for areas to looking pretty stunning at times.
They want the game to be played by as many people as possible! If your trying to make an MMO graphically outstanding on a technical level you are at the s...
If its true then it better be a new Conker. Its the only Rare franchise I seriously have been begging for a sequel to for years now. Conker Live and Reloaded was one of my favourite games on the original xbox. An awesome hilarious singleplayer and a robust online multiplayer made it one of the best xbox titles.
Lets be honest Perfect Dark isn't that great of a shooter. I really dont think Rare have it in them to stand up to the shooters of today. If its true then the title will...
Not sure why im putting my foot in here when I think its a loada bullshit but hey what the hell. I have both consoles and enjoy playing them both. All this crap about them making cuts on the PS3 version graphically to let it fit on DVDs is an absolute load of rubbish. Remove your fanboy tinted rose glasses and put your e-peen's aside for once.
If they wanted to make the PS3 version graphically superior yet the 360 version couldn't handle it then MAKE the PS3 version graphically...
