Devs should just have the sense to only put a date down when they're positive, but if they don't then tough luck. If you're so stupid you actually think these guys are sat there with 25% of a game and they know EXACTLY how long it will take to finish the final 75% then you should just hold your breath until the stupid stops. When far cry 3 gave us a date that's not a release date, it's more of a mission statement for them, and if we take it and act like it's law then i...
It looks pretty good and I don't know why people expect it to be like Shivering isles. It's a DLC approach not expansion pack and oblivion and fallout clearly show that bethesda leave new additions to the world for later DLC's.
Also in regards to your other comment then here's a little tip: if the only person mentioning a console in a line of comments is you then youre being the fanboy.
Yeah I heard this exact same thing about Oblivion. Now it's considered one of the guys and Skyrim is the new gross kid on the block with all simplified stuff and a completely different approach that's way too conventional.
Yeah it's great morrowind was strange but they've done strange, then they did Tolkein, with Skyrim they did Conan. That's the point... just let them do what they want. Like what? Shivering isles isn't strange enough? Skyrim is part o...
Rage had absolutely everything nailed down...except for the fact that they didn't have an actual game. It was ten times the size Doom II on my hard drive but about the length of Doom's first shareware episode. Like I said, graphics are great, AI is great, animation is great, enemies are great, guns are great... it's all awesome. It's just that in terms of "game" Rage is more of a demo. It even ends in a really frustrating way just like a demo.
I jus...
I agree, gamers and journalists spend 80% of their energy bitching about games needing to grow up then have an aneurism when non-gamers have a negative view of games. Freedom of art has and always will be a key signature of civilisation and honestly I'd rather if all the self-righteous over judgmental douche bag journalists who see themselves as the saviours of this disgusting sexist hobby would just piss off and get a job doing something they're more suited to - like prostitution.
Haha! Sorry but your children - for some inexplicable reason - all think they're adopted.
I'm a die hard PC gamer and it's shit like this that is childish not owning a 360. Seriously people like you just need to shut up and stop brewing bollocks between platforms. The whole reason the steambox is gonna be great is because with a unified/less divided player base between consoles and PC then there's no reason for fanboy gimps like you to keep on trolling
If the PR representative acted as she described then he probably was being sexist - but also consider that bohemia isn't from an english speaking country so miscommunication between her and the PR rep is possible and also that even a short and simple exchange can have wildly differing interpretations.
Also, now I don't know about you but my sister doesn't even play games - but if she sat down and thought someone was being rude to her about ANYTHING then that perso...
I'll give them a second chance but red faction armageddon was hard to forgive.
Wow youve finished it already have you? That is impressive because if you hadnt I'd have to call you an idiot for judging a game on a completely imaginary conclusion.
Idiots.
It was shit but people put way too much into trailers. At the end of the day some firm miles away from the game dev will throw together a cg trailer and bam we're ready to go. Look at dead island - people went mad over that trailer and then went mad again when the game was nothing like it but so what? That's the reality of advertising.
So yeah the trailer was shit but it's just that - a trailer.
Idiots.
Unsurprisingly this article is pure stupidity.
What stands out to me is the power video games can have to put you into a world. The power to empathize and sympathize with another human being in such different worlds is incredible and its good that an audience which will mostly be male gets to experience the powerlessness that is often associated with rape. This offers a reality where such powerlessness can be effectively communicated to those who might never really experience...
When you throw a rock at a car the damage depends on the rock and where it landed. Now can you please stop being so stupid as to think that rape and murder can be quantified - they're experiences and the impact they have is dependent on many factors least of which is the victim, the nature of the assault, and the assaulter.
But yes - in the scale of things there is no reason why one should be okay to display artistically but not the other. It's very surreal that the ...
Vs. Every game where the hero is a brown short haired stubbly faced white male. Oh wait that's nearly all of them.
Edit: also in the scope of things isn't it just embarrassing that the best example of a black lead we have is prototype 2? Not half life or portal or braid or deus ex or halo or gears of war - nope none of the good ones, just prototype 2.
While I agree that Japan is capable of incredible moments of storytelling they don't really show it in games. Ico and sotc is one example but the west has portal, half life, braid, bioshock, deus ex and many others. If you look at most storytelling in Japanese games it fails to embrace what actually makes games different to movies and it's funny that Kojima is saying this because he took a perfectly reasonable cold war plot and sodomized it into spaghetti with metal gear solid - not o...
Unsurprisingly the media fails at actually representing the interests of gamers. I'm not touching the damn thing - 29gb is a fucking stupid size and the DRM is as easily overcome as a melon size suppository.
At the end of the day you can take the best ingredients and put it all into a cake but if somebody spunks on the icing it's not edible, no matter how great the jam lining is.
What!? Their shares are stable. They peaked to 13.93 in november then slid to 12 and have now dropped to 11 but considering that they shot from 10.43 to 13.93 in November alone that's not really a signature of a crumbling company. If anything across a 2 year projection activision stock is steadily rising and this is just a typical trough seen in stock variation.
The only thing amazing about this article is the depressing length some people will go to get hits.
