I see a huge difference between the two. Something called reflections off the roof and hood of the car. Look at the first two pics, and look at the third two pics.
In the first two pics... why does ps3 have branches reflecting off the roof but not the 360? 3rd set of shots shows a sun reflecting off the roof.
BIG difference... not just blurry, not blurry, dark or not dark.
This is the also the very same America that allowed a 34-54% flawed console to stay in the market without a mandatory recall. You think that's ethical as well? $50,000 is chump change to the hundreds of thousands or millions that consumers have lost buying MS's prematurely failing console.
Extending out a warranty doesn't exactly make up for it either. Its like Peter Pan Peanut Butter offering you a free peanut butter coupon after getting you sick from their E. Coli stock. ...
That's a good idea. Using time limit to up the pacing. It would be hard to hide whats up ahead though unless its a closed environ like in a boxcar. It is a TPS afterall. Maybe more indiana jones stuff where the explosion from helicopter causes your charc to lose his gun, so he has to resort to throwing boxes and objects and bumrushing in the box car until he can pick up another gun from an enemy further up. Or maybe have them all lose their guns in one car and turn it into a fist brawl.
none and that's why Epic scripted their 'drive' scenes most of the time in gears. I wouldn't think its too hard to make the scenario an "on rails" shooter.
Tell me the author didn't just say this lol:
For some reason, the 3-D effect doesn’t come through when viewed in an embedded video recording — even with the glasses in front of the lens. Sony really needs to work on that.
Someone needs a refresher course on basic 3D. We have two eyes... a camera has ...? How does a one lens camera display 2 offset angles of the same object in order to produce the stereoscopic effect?
lol... the sony fanboys don't have to want ODST to "crash and burn" lol. The driver AI does that already.
I liked how the covenant pwned the lampost. I also liked the lesson this game teaches you.
Here's the answer to destroying your opposition when you have a high-tech piece of equipment. Don't just shoot the guy-whose-shooting-at-you. Ram him! lol. I'm glad I have an understanding now of how modern vehicle warfare works. I have this picture of bumper car session with Abrams tanks in IRAQ. Those flimsy Russian T-90 tanks must be made out of confetti!
Great legitimate points about the gameplay. So as an armchair designer what would you have put into a train level that would spice things up? I'd like to hear your design ideas for reference. Let's hear you contribute something worthwhile instead of 3 paragraphs of whine.
To be fair I'll start off with an idea. How about having logs tied down in the flat bed car cut by the enemy when you get on. Gives it a little platforming element when you have to hop over rolling logs.
wow... you should really take off your beer goggles. UC2 train scene slightly improved from Gow2's? They're not even in the same league anymore. Hey more power to ya I say. If you find 4 out of 10 chicks as hot as 10 out of 10s, then my friend you are a happy man.
you forget higher res textures. That's the other graphical advantage when you have more disc space.
Then you've got none graphical element advantages like # of physics interaction going onscreen at same time, Dolby/DTS True HD, etc.
Your assertion is ridiculous. You really think soldiers get to jump into a humvee or warthog without training and certification? My grandmother could probably do a better job in rl than that AI lol. How do you run into a huge wrecked car in the middle of the road in broad-daylight, staring right in your face with no other objects around ... The only thing realistic about this whole discussion is that the Bungie programmers were lazy and that the same AI driving the warthog in halo3 is now ...
According to the Guerrilla interview on KZ2 friendly Ai... the pre-dumbed down friendly AI would clear the levels before you could throw in your two cents. In order to make the game about "you", they had to tone down the AI and give you more to do. It wasn't because they couldn't design a good AI. Play Kz2 on elite and you'll see what I mean, the enemy AI is extremely good and it has very little to do with them being 'crack' shots. The way they pair up by spreading out to flank ...
That's why there is something called "scripted" driving... it resolves that issue at the slight cost of being "scripted".
that was a pretty retarded movie. The AI driver was definitely on something lol. I think with the amount of time given to polish this title and its predecessor halo3... you would think Bungie would have figured to "script" the driving sessions by now if they can't get the AI to work.
This does not show POLISH usern4g. It is a mediocre "that's close enough" mentality that Bungie is demonstrating (especially given they are a 1st party turned 2nd party studio)...
I thought the whole appeal was that your charc would be human...*shrugs*
And frankly i agree as well with you on the other franchises you mentioned.
If that's the case then MS shouldn't charge $60 for this. I was personally surprised how formulaic the gameplay seemed after seeing that GREAT action trailer. How does the ODST guy drop 60 and not break his legs? The way the guy plays this charc... its exactly how you would play the game with Master Chief. Wasn't the gameplay design supposed to discourage that?
Jinxster is right. There were so many 360 fans like you bagging on ps3 owners. You reap what you sow. If your gonna dish it, then you got a learn to take it.
lol that is hilarious! Haze > Halo:ODST in Japan. I have no problems with that assessment.
