lol Comcast... to be honest they had what I consider the WORST connection for gaming in my area, I'm not going anywhere near this company again especially not after they are attempting all this traffic shaping bullshit...

I played one of them and realized you could just spam the parry button without penalty and never lose.... plus for an assassin game I would expect more stealth and less 20 vs 1 fights where the enemies all decide to attack you one by one instead of just jumping your ass.

It didn't take me long to lose interest in the series, no matter how cool it LOOKS or how good the story is there is no excuse for such easy mechanics.

I need my fix... I need it... this needs to be funded ASAP...

It's in the manual... you know the one that barely anyone ever reads.

Yup, knew this from day 1 (it's in the manual)... but Steam likes to assume you wanted Big Picture Mode...... It's really f#%@ing annoying...

Hmm... At this point I am decent with spoken language but helpless with the written. My only motivation to learn it is for games so I don't have to wait on translations. I suppose it's time for the do it anyway approach?

Nintendo has always done a pretty good job at using low cost and low power tech in their systems. It allowed them to offer lower prices to stay competitive and receive higher profit margins for many years.

Their exclusives are good but they are still repairing their 3rd party relations that broke down in the past due to anti-competitive policies. Microsoft has been implementing similar policies-- "Make your own mistakes, Don't make someone else's"

It's all good, you have your head in the right place.

Whoa there buddy, if you have decent insulation and an AC in good repair it will take less energy to maintain the temperature than to cool it off every time you come back home. It's only worth turning it off if you are going to be away for more than a day.

Of course I forgot about central air units... this applies to window units and cooling only the areas you use most often. If you are using central AC then keep doing what you are doing.

One more thing t...

Did you take a meter to it? Most devices will run at the lowest power possible by default. I have my PC's min processor power at 100% and have it set to boot with all cores (for some reason it doesn't use them all to boot by default why not have a faster boot?)...

Anyway there isn't really a way to know how much you are pulling until you take a meter to it. I don't have a PS4 yet but I will likely check its consumption to decide whether I want to plug it into ...

What? Just as I am skeptical of any "massive" boost coming to the X1 I don't see it with the PS4 either. I will believe it when it happens. I'm sure that neither console has any games that reaches their full potential... I just don't see them unlocking much power that isn't already there...

Eh? They are using big data to create worries (hits) where there really shouldn't be any. These consoles are still relatively low power when compared to PCs and home appliances. You are looking at an increase in your total energy costs that is around $10... for the YEAR.

These kind of cases have happened before where the employee will sometimes moonlight a project at home on his own time but due to some bullshit in his employment contract his work is suddenly owned by the company. In the vast majority of cases the big company wins.

Many contracts stipulate that a salaried employee always represents the company and any ideas or creations made while employed with that company belongs to that company.

This stuff is really really...

If I can't roll a big fat Nose Tackle looking guy with an epic manly man's beard I will be choosing female... they really do need more customization options.

What is with the misuse of words and improper title casing? The words and images overlap in places and there is a random font change at the end.

I do miss SOCOM though... I might have to dig out my PS2 and bridge a connection to it for xlink.

That title has reminded me of SOCOM (though definitely has nothing to do with it)... I am now aware of my lack of SOCOM, intense withdrawal syndrome imminent...

The pitch demo is using UE3 and very low budget textures and animations. When they recieve full AAA funding from a publisher or VC they will be migrating to UE4 and adding all of the polish. This is NOT a consumer level demo, most companies won't even show this stage of development but they do so because of their open window policy.

This is an early beta of the low budget pitch demo. This means they aren't even producing the full game yet, not even at alpha.

Feature wise and graphically it should surpass Confrontation but the gameplay will be more like SOCOM II. This means no sprint button as you movement is determined by how far you move the stick. It looks awkward because they don't even have mocapped animations yet. All of that polish will come when they are funded by a VC or publisher.

This is a pitch demo for publishers/VCs... keep that in mind people.

As far as the speeds go I think they are just about perfect with the exception of backpedaling... I think what is making it look so unnatural is two components. First is the animation which should just be assumed to be polished later. Second is the acceleration and change of direction. There doesn't seem to be any momentum. I'm not saying to make the game overly real by greatly slowing down the chang...
