"prerendered vs. real-time makes an aesthetic difference because the costumes/weapons transfer over. So there's immersion there. But prerendered in itself isn't a bad thing.

In engine isn't inherently bad either. Gran Turismo Prolouge's replays are in-engine. Yes it is kind of cheap to apply AA and other effects that can't be done in real time, but at the end of the day, you're still seeing basically the same thing.

"Of course the fvcktards on this site love the "epic scale" of the Cronos battle because they have brains the size of peanuts, and the fact that size and scale are so easy to do in a VIRTUAL world escapes them. They seem to think it takes much more effort making a 1000ft character compared to a 6ft one."

This conclusively proves that you're a moron. And you insult the intelligence of others? Really?

If size and scale are so easy to do, why do only...

Only one of those articles was an actual glitch, and it doesn't break the game. It just gets you a trophy you don't deserve and let's you play through the game with Max weapons. Which is awesome.

I experienced one other glitch in a QTE where I was supposed to be riding a cyclops, but it was invisible. Other than that, the game has been glitch-free on my multiple playthroughs.

Yeah, 2 glitches. It's clearly the glitchiest game this generation.../sarcasm.

Really? I don't know much about Roman myth. I always assumed it was the same as Greek mythology with different names? Fill me in.

Well, assuming you actually played the game at all, you could actually try FINISHING it before you write a review. As I said above, you haven't even played a fourth of the game. But I guess if you've made up your mind before playing a game, the actual playing of it is just a minor detail, right?

By the way, could you clarify this:
"The back of the box details the 'huge levels' on show, and whilst they could claim that to a degree, it doesn't really count when you have ...

Wow. I'm impressed. You are clearly very dedicated to trolling. Let me ask, do you actually believe the tripe that you spew?

I don't even know where to begin. You've only played 20% of the game (not half) and you write a review? Did it start getting too hard for you? Hey, that's fine. Go back to Gears. Cover, shoot, cover, shoot should be simple enough for you to grasp.

And Kratos' character model is far beyond the character models in Alan Wake or Metro 2033. They lo...

Sweet. It sounds like a much improved version of what Burnout Paradise did.

More games should do this. I loved Burnout's lobby-less system, and now story game is doing it. Rock on, Rockstar.

If you've gone for the Big Boss Emblem, Screaming Mantis is by far the hardest boss. Laughing Octopus isn't easy, but she's nowhere near as irritating as Screaming Mantis.

I also agree with Radec.

Wow, that's one of the best boxarts I've ever seen. It's eye-catching and bad@ss.

"I thought that fight was too easy"

What fight? It was basically just a tutorial on how to ride a cyclops. It wasn't supposed to be difficult.

What you didn't consider is movie playback. If a TV show released an entire season on one BDXL disc, you wouldn't be able to watch it on the PS3.

Does it matter now? Yep.

"Fun factor, multiplayer, single player, hype, critical acclaim, popular acclaim"

Wow, you got all that from a screenshot? Halo: Reach clearly transcends logic, apparently.

The article is about screenshots. You're supposed to use them to compare graphics. Anything else is off topic.

How's that for an argument?

Besides, all of that is rather subjective. In my opinion, KZ2's single player rapes the single player of ever Halo game, bu...

I understand how 60 fps per eye is equivalent to 120 fps. But how is 720p per eye equivalent to 1080p?

If I understand Sony's 3D correctly (and I probably don't), the display is supposed to alternate between two different view points very rapidly. At the same time, the shutter glasses isolate the eyes so each eye is only seeing the image assigned to its perspective. This contrasts with the traditional 3D red-blue image where both perspectives are on screen at the same time.

Yeah, I've never seen more than one advertisement from the same company in real life before. That would be crazy.

^I could definitely see the PSP2 being backwards compatible with digital PSP1 games. But I don't see Sony abandoning physical media or giving the shaft to the customers that prefer digital media. I think Sony will stick to their current model and offer both as a choice.

But as for physical media, the PSP2 won't have UMD. It wouldn't be enough storage. I'm not sure if Sony will try to push the PSP2's physical media quite as hard as they pushed UMD. I don't think movie studios will...

I'm pretty darn certain it's not Gears 3. One of the reasons is the fact that he's going to be on network TV. Late night? Sure. But it's not like they're going to be showing anyone being cut in half with a chainsaw. And Jimmy Fallon's audience likely doesn't care. They showed Natal on Jimmy Fallon, after all. Jimmy Fallon is also a pretty small venue for such a large announcement. I think it might be a Natal game or something smaller.

I'm guessing a new IP or a sequel to one of t...

Who are you talking to?

I buy games elsewhere (does N4G sell games?), I'm here to discuss video games.
