Are you playing from disc or DD? I never saw this once on my play throughs. It sticks out like a sore thumb so I don't think I'd miss it. :D

I've never been hugely into Halo (though I did enjoy 1-3) yet I have all the soundtrack albums.

Losing him seems crazy.. There has to be a good reason. For all his great output maybe he's difficult to work with? (not uncommon among creative types, lol) Who knows.

Umm, christian fundies and radicals in the US have used gods will to justify murder, intimidation and any number of other bad stuff. Attacks on doctors and nurses by "pro life" christians?

There are dangerous fundies everywhere. Your Perspective makes islam seem more of a threat but there are areas of the world where the christians are the hard liners doling out violence, intolerance and hate. Even buddism has shady violent elements in some countries..

I'm buying it, day 1. I don't really care about the implications of that. Definitely going to enjoy another playthrough on a better specced console.

I'd like to see more up-ports like this to be honest.. They're only a problem if you make them one. They're valuable practice for dev studios and they bring the games closer to "perfection". It's nice to know current gen owners will be able to enjoy something only PS3 owners have had until now.

Reminds me of.. Resident Evil 4! Which is one of my favourite games of all time.

It had it's scary moments but generally it was ridiculously silly. I like the idea of more of that.. I don't think TEW is trying to be Amnesia/Outlast... It's just been a case of unfortunate marketing and people's weird expectations..

I'm happy to see more games along these lines. :)

Of course it's coming.. GTA5 is in part a delivery system for GTA:O which is a long term money maker for R* .. Its supposed to be upgraded and added on over a long time, not be a throwaway thing for an old hardware generation. They need to get GTA:O open to as many people as possible and it'd be silly to do that without the sp content too.

Final fantasy Tactics runs great on ios.. Anything with turn based combat is fine.

"It will never be.."

It already is viable and taken seriously by the industry. Not as a replacement for consoles, but complementary. They ARE reliable gaming options used by millions of gamers already.

FTL and xcom are pretty much ideally suited for touch. Turn based or pausable rts, multitouch has some advantages over mouse too.

Intel don't have a suitable APU.. Both companies looked at what was available and banked on multicore+gpu over brute force less cored systems.

I'm inclined to think they know what they're up to!

.. Mass Effect style game in the star wars universe? You mean like the original KOTOR games? That diesn't sound like a bad thing to me at all!

I dont think anyone's giving one up for the other, they're complementary.

Hearthstone, XCom and FTL aren't real games now? FTL and XCom are amazing ports.

You have Kefka as a freaking avatar too.. IOS has a load of FFs.. FFT? These aren't real games either?

why would a pc game be any more likely to cause a seizure than a console one?

Eh. Im glad they switched architecture for the ps4.

There are still parts if the ps3 architecture that are very strong and more than a bit weird compared to other hardware though. Definitely not possible to emulate them on the PS4's internals. You need much more powerful hardware to emulate non-standard stuff like Cell.

Unless you'd want them to include a load of supplementary hardware like they did in launch PS3s and increase the price drastically?...

Nope, i'd like both though, please. :D

Occasional remakes is great but full BC would be great too. I have no problem with HD remakes though especially if they address problems and make things nicer.

But MS launched in what are traditionally their strongest territories and they're still behind in those..

The idea that launching in their least profitable territories will drastically increase sales is a bit crazy.

I anticipate this eating a lot of my time. :D

BS, it depends entirely what sort of games you like to play. There are many genres that are more successful and better suited to PC play. All the indie and small studios are coming from a PC foundation too. Everything is connected.

Everything has it's merits.

Does Wolfenstein run at LOCKED 60fps? No dropped frames in any circumstances? On the X1?

I don't believe that for a second.

4382d ago 2 agree0 disagreeView comment

The devs explained at length that they need 60fps locked. No framerate drops. That's why they had to cut corners to get there on the X1. The fps absolutely can not drop in gameplay.

Most other games drop fps all over the place. Trials is surprisingly hectic, especially in multiplayer.

4382d ago 2 agree0 disagreeView comment

Why do we take devs words for it? I doubt Wolfenstein is 60fps locked like Trials is. It'll be "up to 60fps" and drop when lots is going on.

trials absolutely needs a 100% consistent frame rate. It makes sense they'd have to cut something to make it happen. When 4 player's bikes are on screen it can get super hectic.
