1. People play 1 or two games at any given time, not 4-5. So people well rarely have issues with overloaded HDDs. You can remove game data, it's not the same as "game saves".
2. Not requiring data install to HDD is because of the LACK of standard HDD on Xbox 360s. I don't understand how anyone can argue against installing data for better loadtime / frame rate etc.. frankly you have to be a moron to argue against mandatory installs.
3. PCs have been doing FULL HDD inst...
Really, I never understand why people always argue about being happy with inferior products. Why would ANYONE want to play the game with frame-rate issues etc.. Sure it is time consuming to install data, but there is a positive payoff.
I never understood why people are outraged, the install is game data not "game saves". How many games does one person play at any given time? It's a no brainier to remove any game data that is not being used, and re-installing it later if you want to play again. 20gb is more then enough space for games if managed properly.
But if you want to store multi-media videos etc.. u should upgrade.
90% of that trailer was building make-shift cars and racing them. Let's hope this isn't the "wow" factor Rare was talking about. Because this is by no means a platformer, more like a open world racer with custom built rides.
Let's hope they show off more trailers with actual platforming, or else this might turn out to be another in a series of disappointments. You know, platformer + racer = disaster.
Example: DD Kong Racing / Jack 3 / Crash Racing etc.. ...
3 days away from in-game footage of single player.. xD
EA turning talent away.. why am I not surprised?
Judging anything about "CGI" from screen-shots = FAIL.
People questioned why it was delayed to 2008, after some consideration we see the first two screen shots. One clearly resembles the LittleBigPlanet art style, so don't bash people for questioning / commenting.
One is 2D and the other is 3D so until we see gameplay we can't judge anything, other then the screens.
Umm, best platformer to date on the Ps3.
First of, unified shader is not a good thing, since your ratio can only be 2:1 at any given time, you will NEVER use all 48 shader units at any given time. The reason, companies have moved to this architecture is NOT because it provides better graphics etc.. it's because it's more COST EFFICIENT for them to make these chips.
Unified memory is NOT a good thing, since your CPU / GPU have to constantly juggle between each other and allocate memory creating LAG between them. This i...
And to think, the Ps3 hasn't even reached the sweet spot of $300 in any country as of yet.
This is not an "epidemic" like the RRoD there is obviously going to be failure for the Ps3 it's an electronic equipment. To those who approve these stories, please for the love of everything good don't.
Metal Gear Solid is by NO MEANS a "shooter". If you have Ps3 or an old Ps1 laying around, I suggest you buy / rent the first game. Then fallow them up with 2 & 3, as a "gamer" your missing out on a great game.
Metal Gear Solid is - Tactical Espionage Action
Box + Instructions etc.. I would say a lot.
Would someone who has already downloaded the video, be kind enough to upload it to a gametrailers.com or some other site so we can watch it. People are hugging all the bandwidth and I am getting 20KBs... >_<
and the wait well be over. Who cares about GoTY etc.. as a fan of the series, I just want to play the next installment. It would suck if Snakes story does end here, but here is to hoping Kojima gives us a proper goodbye.
If you don't like the comparisons videos do us all a favor and avoid it. It's more annoying seeing people complain about their being "another" comparison video almost as much as their being a comparison video to began with.
As for the video, it proves that HDD load is a plus. So, X360 owners should install it if they have the option to do so. Less pop up makes for a better game, and helps avoid those awful crashes on a tree etc.. you didn't see while turning that cor...
Once you have a game at 640p / and MSAA the EDRAM is useless as it doesn't have enough memory to process the sample data. The DATA transfer rate to the GPU is very limited, so even if EDRAM could AA the samples, it can't process them fast enough to do any good.
The AA was actually made for standard def games, until Sony came into the picture and Microsoft decided to market their standard def system as a HD gaming platform. Fact is the X360 wasn't designed for HD gaming.
None of these pics are in 1st person. One thing I noticed was cover taken in last picture. Is Insomniac going to employ the Gorila 1st person cover system. We know they have talked to each other a lot, let's hope.
