If developers halve the amount of polygons they want to push per frame, then they can all run their games at 60 frames per second. I would say that IW or Treyarch care about performance more than visuals, but since MW2 was a disappointment gameplay wise as well, I really don't know what these developers focus on in their games.

That's all part of his personality. Of the 3 million people who purchased fable 2, how many of them do you think even know who Peter is, or have ever heard what he's promised?

If you listen to what developers have to say about their games during development, then you might be disappointed by the final results.

For example, Sony Santa Monica initially said their game would run in 1080p at 60 frames per second. While I don't give a shit about re...

No reason to release GT6 this gen. If GT5 is the definitive driving simulator, and if PD has spent 5 years to make sure that it has all the features they want on it, then why the hell would they need to make a GT6 so soon?

Naughty Dog made the successful Jak and Daxter series, and then moved on to something better. Just because you can make a successful game and sell millions of copies doesn't mean you should compromise your ideas.

I'd like to see Lionhead work on a new game, using a new engine. I've heard the Fable 3 engine is an updated engine from Fable 1 on the Xbox.

So many people have five bubbles today, but sadly, GWAVE was neglected.

Bungie backs their talk.

If Naughty Dog made a similar claim, would you respond with "talk is cheap" or "OMGZ guyz, best game ever only on PS3!"?

His ability to electrify desired objects, and the fact that there's usually a small circular reticule in his vision, suggest that his mind has some level of control over his electrostatic energy. Thus, telekinesis is an acceptable description of his abilities.

/end nerd rant. Someone kill me.

"Dude I don't care as long as I think it's a girl it'll still get the job done."

If everyone in the world facepalmed at the same moment, it would still not be enough to offset the fail of your comments.

And now you have a picture of Hannah Montana dressed as a Helghast. Pathetic.

I think 4 player split-screen co-op is an existing feature for Halo 3.

Alphamale, the only reasons some people want MS to continue in the industry is to always keep Sony on their heels.

Microsoft has no prospects in the gaming industry anymore.

Once Epic Games finishes up the Gears trilogy, they're bound to start producing AAA (referring to budget) multiplatform titles.

Bungie has gone multiplatform as well. I don't know to what extent Microsoft still owns Bungie (stock-wise), but Bungie can utilize a...

He must have gotten close, because Sony surrendered the OS before George gave up.

Right, so my question was if Bungie had to compromise visuals for split screen co-op?

If 4 people play split screen co-op on Reach, do the graphics automatically get downgraded?

If they don't, does this mean that Bungie could have made Reach look 4 times better if they took out split screen co-op?

I don't like relying on strangers, either. It's a great feature for those who want it, though.

Also, I wonder if Bungie has to compromise the visuals of the game so that it can support 4 players at once online or in split screen. If they cut out 4 player co-op, could they make the game looks 4 times better?

Consider the fact that the Microsoft revenue from the 360 has been very small. Hardware launches take up a lot of resources and time for R&D.

Considering that MS has a small first party base, why not just focus on PC? They make most of their cash through software anyway. What's the point of losing so much on hardware. It's been proven that PC gaming is not only alive and well, but it's still a dominant platform in the industry. MS, and Sony for that matte...

If you go to college, then you'd readily agree that playing a large number of games from various genres is kind of impractical. If you have a lot of time on your hands, by all means, call the 360 a piece of shit.

If you barely have enough time to take a leak in between studying, then complaining about the lack of many games on the 360 doesn't make sense. As if you would have the time to play them anyway.

"You can't have a truly excellent game without at least a decent name"

What?

No way. Some of the greatest games have crappy titles.

I personally think the name "Uncharted" is not as cool as the name "Tomb Raider" but Uncharted is the better series.

And "Brutal Legend" sounds fucking amazing but the game isn't nearly as epic as the title.

Generic?

I don't think you know what that word means.

Halo's art style is unique. Therefore, how can it be generic?

Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Arma 2, and Battlefield all follow similar styles. If another game came out that had the same style as these games, it would be appropriate to say that that game is generic.

How many games are like Halo, in terms of art style and combat? I've heard Unreal Tournament a...
