Hey thor remember what I said about how Red Faction's destructability while more comprehensive was more last gen? Remember when you argued in the KZ2 destructable thread about how limited it was? Look at the screenshots of this RedFaction. Whoop-di-doo we've got lego parts flying everywhere.

Lot of rectangles...planks, bricks, sticks, and boards...
I don't mind a unified service and I can see the advantages you are pointing at... I just don't want Microshaft to be the one managing it.
Exactly JaySquared. Through your twisted logic, I completely agree with you for once.
Let's face it guys both platforms feature a mix of dedicated/p2p networks. The key difference as Jaysquared so mockingly put it is the fact that Sony has a ton more 1st and 2nd party developers that offer dedicated servers. This is also why the generality that Sony's PSN has dedicated servers is true for the most part. Sony customers have ALOT more 1st party/2nd party support, and for some rea...
that's just retarded using "sensorial" as a reason to nitpick. What about when wii users use lightsabers and swords with their wiimote to slice people to pieces? That's extremely sensorial and even closer to your punching bag analogy than anything... speaking of which there are punching people games too... lol
you 360 fanbois shouldn't be so gleeful. This price cut was meant to take over the Wii not just the ps3. With a starting price that is now $50 less than even the Wii... a sales surge is SUPPOSED to be expected. But the fact of the matter is the Wii STILL beat out the 360 even with price advantage, tech advantage, and even home turf advantage means that 360 is not winning diddly crap anytime soon. Another price drop with the 360 is NEVER going to do anything more at this point. With MS hav...
Interesting point you made about the grenade darth. I would've agreed with you (I was looking for it too) except that a prior video showed the opposite of what you nitpicked about and there was damage effect from the shock/shrapnel. I was expecting some shockwave splinters as well when I watched this one but I didn't see it. Which brings me to a point I'd like to make. I find it really really impressive that guerilla actually went out of their way to do real physical modeling (vs. a simulate...
haahaha where do you work? ILM? Digital Foundry isn't a fly by night operation like your membership avatar. Digital Foundry's people say KZ2 is undisputed king. Gears of war 2's art direction is phenomenal but it doesn't even begin to push any tech envelopes. Even Ars Technica says R2 has more tech oozing out of it than geow2
hahah seriously. Never free. Only thing you can say about having a girl is the convenience. That and getting used to having vanilla everyday of the week. (not that i'm complaining about mine per se ;)
The 360 isn't a near defective product if repair rates are estimated at 15-16.4%. Anything over 3% is considered defective by industry standards.
Great game definitely deserves its props.
Dissenters, you need look no further than WOW. Graphics for RPGs doesn't matter as much as an FPS. Gameplay/fun matters most.
True. I find it very interesting you can customize and stack attack combos to make the combat look more interesting and develop you're character's attack style. I think the story mode graphics are pretty good, certainly better than the multiplayer mode.
hahahah i agree. let them all know what's up.
My guess is this Cell video encoder mayhap is faster than most if all not all video encoders/decoders out there? (for its price)
I completely agree with what you said. I give AA thumbs up to 360 and "barely" slightly better textures to the ps3. Perhaps it's the lighting in the 360 that causes the texture washout though. Anyway, a complete wash.
I can agree that Red faction had "More" destructable objects/environments than what we've seen in kz2. But come on, if anyone were to try to implement those same physic characteristics from Red Faction in this game.... do you know how dumb and incredibly last last gen it would look? Why do you think no shooter sequel since has included it? Because it wasn't cutting edge or realistic.
I'm impressed that whole pillar doesn't burst to rubble. That would be geow2 with basic destructability. And btw, why would a frag grenade rip up a pillar column of that size? The grenade is designed to rip flesh with shrapnel. It looks like the pillar is reinforced concrete with stone/concrete tiling on the outside for decoration. An anti-personnel munition isn't going to do that much to a solid pillar like that. What i'm surprised about is the shrapnel tearing tiles off near the top of t...
Great theories you got going there... but nope Sony fanboys aren't starving for games any more than 360 fanbois are starving for something to bash Sony fanbois owners. As for the anti-sony bias in the US? Seems very real to me. Is it really that un-American to applaud the foreign competition for their strengths? I find Famitsu more impartial than 70% of the publications here in the US.
PS- Assuming that "yes" Sony fans are starving for great games, is that necessari...
you count on car reviews because cars cost so much that if you got a lemon.... ouch in the pocket.
Game reviews... purely subjective.
Personally i view it as a very solid fun game that's great to play and exciting but not in the 9 territory b/c it doesn't push any envelopes.
- 3D engine is dated/ Graphics are par/subpar for this generation
- Scope is very focused but very limited
- Coop/Vs mode only(It's not even considered a complete game... how does it get full AAA scores).
- Music/Sound is average (Typical FPS fare
8.5 maybe 8.9... but it is not a AAA more like a A/B+
