Ryse looks like a Roman Brawler action game that doesn't bother with the supernatural or monsters. I'm really just not interested in that at all whether it is good or not. If it were more of an rpg or a strategy then I might like it but as it...meh.

Forza is a racing sim type game and I've found out since Forza 2 that I don't really like sim racing.

So...whatever.

Sony has had VR style visor displays for a while just like Nikon and others.

I prordered them both. Because I am stupid. I should have waited till next fall at least.

GOTY isn't a guarantee of excellence. It just means that editors at a site liked it. And games that don't win GOTY aren't necessarily mediocre. What a dumb thing to assume!

And Remember God of War Ascension and Gears of War Judgement? Both sold below expectations around 1.3 million because they both felt like phoned in rehashes that had no good reason to be made apart from putting one more title out. The fans just didn't show up because they knew it was a hal...

The people who saw at BF4 runing on PS4 hardware at Gamescom didn't seem too scared of PS4's power. They said it looked worse than expected. Of course it hasn't shipped yet but...hype is just hype.

Honestly I haven't seen much of ANYBODY get excited about Ryse. I'm not sure that a roman sword brawler is all that exciting a product.

Doubtful. Both consoles are so PC like that they'll be getting most of their dev-experience related "power increases" from library updates and GPU driver and API revisions.

It's all pretty much on the table from the start.

"there's simply no way that any X360 game looked better than any PS3 exclusive."

Lol. Lots of PS3 exclusives were practically budget games. Move Heroes? Ratchet and Clank All 4 One? 3d.Heroes? Playstation All Stars Battle Royale? Mod Nation Racers? Sly Cooper 4? LOL! yeah that's just amazing stuff lol! Who the hell was ever blown away by that?

Even with the Naughty Dog stuff it rings kind of hollow and ignorant.

Nobody real...

No, the Helghast blew up Helghan while trying to blow up the Earth with a sneak attack, which is the only way they'd have half a prayer against Earth's fleet.

Saturn had shoulder buttons though (like Super NES controller) in both the big cheap-plastic-feeling US pack-in controller and the sleeker Japanese version. The Saturn Analog had triggers instead but they were still used like the shoulder buttons. Same with Dreamcast. And the Duke/S on Xbox which were essentially a double-stick (adding a right thumb stick) iteration of the Saturn Analog/Dreamcast design.

Then 360 added shoulders above the triggers to replace the B&W butto...

Motion control on Sixaxis and DS3 was a rarely used joke though. Shake off the zombies. Guide the batarang. Yay. I'd never miss it. I don't know about the touch-pad. It seems dumb but might be good for a diablo-style inventory or something.

I have an 0pen mind about it. And the shape of the DS4 looks a lot more comfortable in the hand that the DS3 was. I have preordered both so we'll see.

" It is extremely annoying having to constantly replace batteries, or remove them to recharge or buy a play-n-charge kit. "

You don't have to "constantly swap batteries" any more than you have to constantly put a USB cord into your DS controller and keep it there until your controller has charged its internal non-swappable battery. It's a ridiculous argument not founded in reality.

I never bought a PLAY N' Charge. I bought 4 Sa...

It probably is a thing in a club, or an arcade, or a rec center, or a lan-party center. It's just not ready to be sold in a box to a consumer. The market that could afford it or would want to pay for the setup is too small.

Remember how Surface started out being sold to Real Estate companies to use in the sales office and used on TV News instead of being a consumer product? It's like that. It will be used for presentation applications by entities with big money instea...

Go watch every episode of Thundarr the Barbarian, Speed Buggy, Herculoids, and make a game of a stupid mash up of THAT with gangsters. SR V. You're welcome.

Yeah, I admit that I am starting to worry. And it seems like such a no-brainer too. Just make a really fast, twitchy game where you kill lots and lots of 'dumb as hell demons' and dead people, that pop out of monster closets, with crazy weapons with lots of smoke, fire, blood, and bones in it. Maybe have some destructible scenery and vehicles here and there to spice things up. Have some key cards and levels you can wander around in.

Sometimes looking backwards is th...

I think the point the author is trying to make is that it is weird, fatuous, inappropriate, embarrassing, grandiose, and silly to try and tie gaming to achievement, self worth, self actualization, accomplishment, character, struggles for liberation or equality, or any of that crap.

It's just a damned recreational activity and whining about the social troubles you face in your voluntarily pursued and highly optional expensive hobby is dumb. A stoner and a bum can game just...

I wish someone would hack the PC version and at least fix the stupid stiff-legged movement animation. It feels ridiculous.

The guy tweeting does seem hostile and rude but he has unfortunately got a valid point that the optics on this are pretty terrible.

Tim doesn't look good with the lame/witty put downs and 'look at the bright side or you're a jerk' diversion bit. He seems smarmy, condescending, not funny, he can't let it go, and the whole thing comes off as rather petty, evasive, testy, and unprofessional. And he never really takes responsibility for things getting out of ...
