In a perfect world i would have the money to get this regardless of the performance gains, but i do not, and of all the things my pc needs, a new OS is not it, sorry microsoft nvidia gets my money first
omfg another spin off, full 3d pokemon wii game or die, i don't want to know about your god damn pokemon rangers, pokemon snap, or any other pokemon spin offs involving the samurai pizza cats....ok maybe the last one would be cool
I'm sure it will be pretty polished, but let's not foget that they released a patch for sc1 at the start of this year aka 10 years on, so there will be alot of balancing still, i myself don't care if it's not 100% balanced, it's always nice to find an exploit in a rts to help you get the upper hand, but they have to keep those koreans happy. also: +1 bubble, i had one for quite a while there, and it sucks donkeys *****
EDIT: meant to reply to pink uni.
the royalties for the music go to the music publishers, and alot of them aren't sony artists.
@Tomonobu Itagaki
activision reduced their 4th quarter estimated profit by 500 million dollars when starcraft 2 was delayed to 2010....and you say pc gaming isn't profitable???, that is a pc exclusive, it will be pirated, BUT it will still sell 12 million copies aka 600 million gross
Piracy is a result of greedy pc users, this is true, but it is more a product o...
your obviously young and naive so i'll spell it out for you.
Console hardware is derived from pc hardware.
Console games are made on pc's using tools to monitor ram usage etc throughout the process so that they can tone the games down so they don't overload the console's ( in the same way that games are optimised for pc)
If pc gaming died....which is IMPOSSIBLE, because as i said pc gaming will be around as long as computers are....and just between me an...
Another one?, really?????
LIke i always say, as long as there are pc's there will be pc gamers. What's going to happen, hundreds of millions of pc's being publicly burned because they couln't POSSIBLY! compete with the console's that have sold 30 million a piece??
if anything is killing pc gaming its' greedy developers/publishers, when will they learn DRM hurts them too. I have a pc game- sacred 2, now useless because their DRM f-ed up, and they won't give me technic...
It's goog to know that the testers and devs are having a good time playing it, but why not share the love, and by that i mean RELEASE THE GOD DAMN GAME, I'VE WAITED SINCE 1998, ENOUGH!!
MUAHAHAHA, retailers that have morals?, news to me, good news though
EDIT:
hopefully this happens with other, games, retailers not stocking c&c4 due to the constant internet requirement, would make my day, the consumers have no rights, so maybe we'll get some retailers to change who has the upper hand.
weather men don't get paid to report their opinions, this guy does, and he's ALWAYS wrong, that's the trouble, we need a ban on pachter just as much as we do on HHG
work for microsoft?, that's not even funny, i know that they are the evilest pricks on the planet, but to say thet their OS's don't work is stupid, like i said the other day, i have had many MS OS's and they get better each time, always have, ( except windows ME)
not that anyone listens to xoxideu anyway, but he's the worst kind of troll, the kind that can't back up his claim, he went on a rant about how "vista sucks" the other day and in the process proved that he doesn't even have vista. He probably doesn't even have a pc. What do you play little boy?, tamagochi?
aren't you the person that claimed that vista was responsible for making your wireless internet connection drop out, and that vista is somehow responsible for your computer freezing "50% of the time", the error's with their O.S for you are not the os's fault at all, but a result of user stupidity.
fail troll attempt is fail
May as well head off the comment section, with my powers of foresight i predict 90% of the comments to consist of: "this wouldn't happen on ps3", with a sprinkling of "microst sucks", followed by an equal portion of "ps3 ftw", and champ21 will copy paste a complete list of the prices of computer components...
you seem to forget that we "pissant" consumers are nothing to someone who will earn 15 million a year regardless of sales. I wish your statement were true but don't think he'll feel it at all, after all he doesn't have a soul
Looks like this could be a good series, i plan to make a thread about it and hopefully get it stickied in the pc forums, if anyone can save themselves money+ get a better pc for less than the retail cost= happy times
I never had any intention of buying this game but i signed the petition just so it looks that little bit prettier, i am a bit of a hypocrite for talking about the high price of this game when dragon age is suffereing from the same price hike....luckily for me i got it from game.com.au ( $99 instead of 129 at eb for the collectors)
This s.t.a.l.k.e.r dx11 crap is getting ridiculous, the dx10 version looks like early dx9, and dx11 looks acceptable as a dx10 game, they have obviously just optimised the dx11 aspects while doing the rest cheaply.
Let's put a 30 year old demolition car next to a new mustang, which looks better??
It will still be a long time until games surpass crysis, (besides crysis 2) i think another year or two and it will be beat.
Fingers crossed far cry 3, dead sp...
that's hilarious, first good kotaku article in.....ever
my main concern is the art style affecting your combat ability, depth perception etc not being the same with the sprite-ish art design, it's hard to tell from the video's how it will affect it, but in a fast paced shooter i imagine it could be a bit distracting, i'm gonna wait for the demo
Fact: Valve will always have dedicated servers for all of their games.
@ below, it is more than likely given the fact that they have dedicated server packs available for all of their multiplayer games, i really don't see why i'm getting disagrees, stupid little sh!ts
