CRank: 5Score: 14460

I wonder what impact it has on frame rate in real-time gameplay...

Kinda funny, but I played the demo and this has actually made my rental list. I used to watch Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z as a kid, I have no idea who Brolly is but regardless the demo was pretty fun, and at worst it'll be a good fun time waster. I always liked the fighting style of the Dragon Ball series, except for the 90 minute "to be continued" sequences of someone screaming like they're constipated while the yellow flames get bigger around them...

Good thing, I'm not really sure where the story was going at the end of Crysis.

I'm sure it will be great as the first was.

Ubisoft, what have you become? Tom Clancy games used to be good and have standards! It's honestly heartbreaking to know that possibly the last chance of having a realistic combat flight simulator on the 360 (or a decent new PC one) has gone down the drain.

Edit: Yeah, does look similar to Ace Combat, but Ace Combat seems to have better graphics... When it comes to such an arcady experience, graphics are a huge deal.

They have one chance to win me back: Actual...

I hope we'll be able to say it's an amazing card as well.

I have a feeling ATi knows it's not competitive with nVidia's high-end, which explains the price point. We'll have to see.

It's a large enough improvement over the 3870 if it can go neck-and-neck with the 9800gtx. We'll have to see.

Regardless, it's going to be inexpensive, and in my opinion you can't beat the price:performance ratio of the ATi cards at the moment. They may not have the best competition at the high-end, but they are a great choice for anyone looking to get a bang-for-the-buck system. Not to mention their software is great for amateur users, and still allows a decent level of con...

I'm glad such large drives of high-speed flash memory are releasing so quickly.

True, these drives have a relatively short re-write life, but used to install operating systems/programs they are perfect. Generally, a normal hard drive is best for storage and backups, but this flash memory handles enough use to be an effective and incredible OS disk.

I can't imagine who thought "HAY GUYS U PLAY A BUM WHO SHOOTS HOTDOG STANDS" would make for a good splinter cell game. Honestly, they need to push back to the original, or Chaos Theory. Double Agent was ok, but I hated that "between mission" junk. Give me traditional Tom Clancy: A briefing, get in, do the mission, get out, an after-action report.

If I wanted crowd-based action I'd play GTA. If I wanted urban shooting (a-la Double Agent) I'd play Rainbow Si...

Unfortunately, when I got my PC the HD2900XT was my best bang-for-buck choice at over $400...

If only I'd waited a few months...

I'm hoping they'll have something worth upgrading to. In my opinion, if it's not substantially improved, it's not worth upgrading unless someone is willing to buy my old card for some decent money.

If they said it'd be USB or something, they would have been pulling it from their behinds. I am happy they've come up with this idea to include a specific graphics port on the new laptop models. This will be incredible if it takes off.

Frankie isn't a composer, he's the community lead and stuff... You're thinking of Martin O'Donnel

Really didn't need to know that.

But regardless, Vista is a good operating system. Heed my words in a few years, because people thought the same of XP when it first released.

People are simply too picky and can't handle something new that works differently.

Compared to some of the standard heavy-hitters I don't see this being successful.

It will likely be marketed to people looking to spend as little money as possible but in need of a graphics solution, and it will probably cost more than standard cards.

Sony had themselves in a perfect place for this year, and bit by bit it's being torn apart. They still have many very good titles coming out, but as the news of PS3 titles being delayed reaches the people, news of 360 games releasing this year also hits...

I admire this man for changing the face of Sony from the pompous "I'm better than you" image to an image that truly seems to care for the fans and owners of the console and wants to provide the experience they said t...

Self-esteem isn't easily found these days and it's unfortunate that something so small can traumatize anyone. Though, keep in mind, it was a child. I can see how such a thing could effect a child so profoundly because they don't know the difference between a professional doctor opinion or a pop-up ad on the internet.

Nintendo should be careful in the future and instead of writing "You're Fat" or whatever the message is, go for "keep trying!" or something mot...

In New York the fire department is called "FDNY." Liberty City is modeled on New York. In addition, it is within the Xbox 360 version as well. It's just a coincidence, and everyone is blowing it out of the water.

I has been ages since I've read something as ignorant as "I won't buy any games this generation that are under 10GB" considering 95%+ of the games that are out/will be out this generation--not to mention most of the good games--tend to take less than 10GB of space.

Vista is a better operating system than XP in several ways. Problem is that XP has been around for so long, and has such a huge install base that nobody is taking the chance to write Vista exclusive software. If all software was re-written, Vista would run it better. Unfortunately, that is not the case, and like any new operating system it takes time for developers to utilize it.

Direct X 10 is the same story. It's much more efficient than 9, but nobody is stupid enough to re...

I doubt the "Core Gaming Audience" doesn't have a "current generation" gaming machine. Those people sitting on their PS2's aren't the ones who get an attach rate to 7.5.
