I really enjoyed Darksiders. This is coming from a guy that beat Demon's Souls five times in a row. I thought the story, while not the deepest, was excellent. I also thought that graphically, it was a really good game, the use of colors and contrast really stimulates the visual palette, and the art direction was superb and cohesive. The combat was fluid and creative, when it comes to combos. The protagonist is in every regard a bad@$$ taking down demigods and dieties, and you really feel lik...

That seems like a great idea, if your an Xbox360 developer. A boon if you will, when porting code to test. Considering XNA has native code for both the 360 and PC, I could see this being used by developers, depending on what Microsoft says is allowed, but it could speed up development, and porting by a considerable amount, leaving more time for polish and optimization, as long as airflow and circulation isn't a problem.

I've bought from these online retailers many times in the past. http://www.xoticpc.com . School, military, and cash discounts are available. Just like Alienware they offer all the options, unlike Alienware, they sell the world's most powerful 15 inch laptop. Buying an Alienware is like buying a mac for me, yeah you get the bells and whistles, but you are confronted with fact that hardware-wise, you could've found a better deal without...

"Apparently you are intelligent, but not yet at the point where you can accept what evidence is. You seem like a pretty smart guy, I find it very unfortunate that somebody of your intellect still refuses to see which side carries the weight of evidence and which has nothing but faith".

Until you understand what it is to die and then come back, and the great pain it causes, I think the deeper meanings I refer too, will escape you. Weight of evidence dictates that life it...

Mr.Bun and Parapraxis, I appreciate your opinions and contributions. Thank you very much for offering me more insight into the thoughts and perspectives of others, and though we may not agree on everything, I respect your opinion, and will take it into account for my own personal development regardless. Thank you for your time, and have a great day.

"All the science and discoveries you mentioned were founded because the current models DID NOT MAKING ANY SENSE (LOGIC). Organized religion does not function in that respect. It is backwards. Religion fills in the gaps (without any need for rational though) to maintain the answer (status quo)".

Such is the nature of spiritual in contrast to physical. Energy does not dissipate, it only changes forms.
Why do you preach objective thought, whe...

As for bible studies in Sunday school, how is that different than teaching world history and the lessons we learned from it in school, I would think that to have lessons from both sides of the spectrum would create objectivity, and a more sound mind. It is my opinion that Atheism would have no foundry or purpose, if there was no Christianity. I tend to think of it on the impartial side. History's purpose is to keep the future from holding the same mistakes as the past, and so should it be pas...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether it be about religion, romance, art, music, etc. However, Hitler is described in every history book that I have read, as a genocidal(racially based killer) tyrant. So it would stand to reason that one search on google, would bring up a reference in Grolier, or even Funk and Wagnalls to confirm as much.

However now after beating it the first time, I have such a sense of satisfaction, as it will help you develop skills needed to master it. I am willing to say that the challenges this game threw at me, helped me develop further as a gamer which is how the game presents itself. It becomes apparent when you reach the Tower Knight that you will rise to the occasion or be crushed underneath it and fairly quick. Come check me out in the pantheon as I have ranked 1rst for most black phantoms slain ...

Morganfell, save your effort, we know that the developers put extra blood, sweat, and tears (more clouds of ethereal plasma than anything else) into refining the experience by improving it, all the while not straying too far from what the series has accomplished. There are loading times, but they are short. There are extra characters to help flesh out the story, replayability, and add pinache. There was a definite upgrade in the graphical department. The sound is uncompressed with 7.1 channel...

I dont like calling anyone a blatant liar, and I'm not saying that it didnt happen to you, but my PS3 had the PSU burn out during my first time playing Call of Duty WaW on it. When I recieved my new unit from Sony, the CoD disc was in a sleeve in the box, I was able to associate ALL of my Singstar content with my account ID, re-download it, and I had no problems using it, so your story sounds more like a product of your own ignorance, versus Sony's Digital Rights Management.

It is $249.00 plus s&h for the Nintendo wii from Overstock.com. With the Motionplus (and a compatible game) its another $44.49, without the game it's $20.00 for the standalone Motionplus. So it's relatively congruent in respective pricing strategy, Nintendo's offering and Sony/MS offering, except that you know that parts are cheaply made with Nintendo. No one knows yet the pricing of the next gen motion controllers yet, I'm just going by your assumptions and my facts. I think you must hav...

While I respect your opinion, I feel that you sir are wrong, when you said that Bethesda announced DLC exclusivity prior to launch. Many people were caught unaware by the announcement, after we had purchased the game, so I know first-hand that Bethsoft didnt tell the respective console owners about their arrangements.

As for me "raving", fair enough, you have your bag and I have mine, but my refusal to support the encouragement of bad practices, has nothing to do with...

Good on them for bringing more life to an already expansive and excellent game, but shame on them for their apparent ignorance towards the PS3 crowd. You guys on the 360 and PC (myself included for the PC) are incredibly lucky to recieve the DLC that makes the game play as it should have from the beginning(modified ending). However, I have a standing petition at my division with around 11,000 signatures of soldiers with all ranks, that wont be buying anymore Bethesda products.I have so many f...

Because I have 2.80, and no problems using the internet or listening/ripping CDs. As for Solotov, yes for a console OS footprint it is slightly large, but getting smaller every update, yet it fulfills it's intended purpose. Compared to Vista's active footprint and cycle dedication, I'd say that the Ps3's OS is rather small. I see where Sony is heading on their roadmap, and I like it. They intend to stay on the cutting edge until the very end of this generation. I see features of the hardware ...

I'd like to see a Chakan: The Forever Man, that game was so atmospheric and unforgiving, that it became my favorite on the Sega Genesis. Other thean that I would like to see the old Lucas arts games get a reboot, like Full Throttle, again it was an incredibly atmospheric game as well as badass before it's time. A 3-D Dark Seed would be a very welcome addition, for its story and its dark atmosphere, as well as it's story and art-style by H.R. Geiger, the guy that single handedly gave Ridley Sc...

I see that PS2 iso loading is only possible on the discontinued 60gb and 20gb models, which falls directly in line with my previous statement that if the Cell is involved, PS2 Iso loading is simply impractical as well as impossible unless the same encryptions and certificates can be cooked using the same mastering technique that Sony uses. Sony was smart to bring back PS2 support on the PS3 through Software emulation, so that the Cell can be involved in code checking. Effectively cutting the ...
