I wish i was a multi billionaire so i could buy some of these licenses I love and hire devs that might also care to make a good game or a tv network that supported sci-fi shows.

Stargate in particular has the perfect "Setting" for a video game with the um Stargate as a focal point of the story line. It can send you to a multitude of places with outdoor or indoor environments that could make up many different situations.

it'll only make it better with a lot more action packed into each server. As with practically all mmo launches are huge and you can get terrible press for having people stuck in long queues or constant disconnects, so SOE had plenty of servers and as the hype dies down some servers become ghost towns for a variety of reasons.

Once they merge they will try to balance the 3 factions (population) better and maybe it'll finally be more common to see the big battles that s...

While i like hating on Activision as much as anyone, Bungie choose to align with them and are in control of their own *ahem* destiny...

If they can get away with wallet rape they are probably going to do it and they probably thought Activision gave them their best chance.

I say Valve is just trimming the fat. They are about to enter a new and very important era and maybe these people just weren't doing as well as they should and as other people said, just got too comfortable at their job.

more worried about the white knights giving this girl 150k for doing nothing, that's what is really wrong here. Some "geeks" are so easily & willfully exploited its pathetic. I'm surprised more women dont take advantage of the industry.

I doubt EA even thought about segregation being an issue,
till it was brought up on the forums, their only focus is money. With swtor crashing and burning any content from here on out will be paid for whether its gay or straight or just plain old non sexual content.

This is an overblown non issue only because journalist need hits on their sites and blogs. It's no problem to report on it but this article is more of a give me attention rant.

Gaming journalism is almost as bad as the N4G comment section. But at least they get paid to be delusional hype machines.

A decent PC + Oculus Rift will be the future anyway. Once you try one it's life changing.

Some people will buy anything, but 200 bucks for something trendy that you show off everywhere is much different then 700 that sits out your house. 200 bucks is Christmas gifts and birthday gifts for lots of people, 700 bucks narrows your market quite a bit, that's a lot to give up at one time.

There's not even a new cell being made anymore. Too expensive for Sony to continue making a chip with one sole purpose when its significantly cheaper to use a mass market one like the AMD chip it has already been pretty much confirmed using.

The cell was okay for its time but CPUs have progressed a lot since then as well while the cell has only been shrunken to new process nodes with no further R&D for a next gen chip.

Sony doesn't need the finan...

Well it could be either way. The series stayed true to the movie pretty well, it just continued the story. My main point is having a Stargate in your story gives you endless possibilities of environments to explore.

And if you didn't want to include Earth in your story and all the plotholes that it could cause, you could easily turn it into a Stargate Atlantis or Universe situation. Stranded from home, and minimal supplies makes for a classic story setup and gives you a c...

Stargate could have did really, REALLY, well as a video game franchise. The premise of the show is perfect for it to offer a lot of variety that completely honors the canon story line.

A stargate can simply take you to any type of planet you want to visit for an on foot adventure and you can have some space combat to boot.

It could have been a great "Mass Effect style" game

I dont know, in some ways they probably are somewhat forced. When the presidents and whoever else are at the top meet with their shareholders, I'm sure the shareholders are asking

"why dont we have a CoD or WoW game making us tons of money???"

which puts pressure on the president which trickles down to the developers. This is why its great to keep your companies private if at all possible if you truly want to make the games you want to make, ot...

EA may easily change their minds if they put out hardware. Withholding some of your games so people will use your client is one thing but if the steam box is successful, shareholders will probably demand the extra revenue that a steam console would produce.

as long as they dont sell "consoles" at a loss they dont have much to lose. At worst they break even and walk away. This is the benefit of building a console out of 100% pc stuff. Nothing is custom made and has unforeseen costs. This is why all the next gen consoles will use basic pc parts too.

Working Designs had another great game called Vay on the Sega CD which I thought was at least as good if not better then the Lunar games which I loved as well. I really wish it would had seen more love. Workings Designs had to be one of the greatest companies of that time - even the strategy guides for their games where phenomenal and very personably written in a way I've never seen copied, though I haven't bought a strategy guide since...hmm FF7?

As a random note Vay...

its hard to say if it would be usable in your story missions, but after you finish up your story you can probably use one in the "open world sandbox game" after you completed your missions.
