CRank: 5Score: 47670

I don't even like the franchise but the fact they're so clearly skirting around just giving fans a direct sequel with original assets is a bit of a piss take.

More and more I see the trust of fans being betrayed and it's a real shame. From Dragon Age II's luke warm reception, crysis 2's abysmal consolification, Epic's refusal to approach the PC (considering we were their sole audience and hence funding for about two decades makes it an especially bit...

Minecraft is genuinely one of the greatest games I've ever played and I just love seeing it pop up everywhere. Of course I'm a little on edge that the success might damage notch and his future releases but so long as minecraft stays true to it's current form I'm never gonna stop loving it.

Also I'm not really familiar with the area this guy talks about. Graffiti around me is always just random shit by anyone, is it meant to be that only gangs spray paint i...

No.

No it is not.

Comedy is subjective.

Apparently in half life Gordon does talk it's just a decision by valve to omit his speech to help immerse the player whereas Chell refuses to speak, apparently because she just wants to show her annoyance at the insanity of what's going on around her.

Considering how stubborn she's meant to be I guess it makes sense.

Firstly "hot Asian chick" isn't a word.

Secondly chell's origins are clearly at odds with what's expected of the typical lab rat, its part of the enigma.

Thirdly she's hardly sexualized, she's always been based on the one model. Any shift in appearance probably just comes from a new spin by the art department.

Valve should realize they're at a tipping point with this ARG. Episode 3 is no longer funny, not when it's all that we want. Fuck DOTA2, seriously just fucking fuck DOTA2 and fuck l4d2 because it wasn't a necessary sequel. For valve to ask so much of their community, and for us to deliver... valve should have stepped up their game because we certainly did.

Fuck portal 2 early release, I think I speak for everyone when I say what would have really sent everyone ba...

Why even include the pc? Show me a game that looks better on console than pc and I'll show you a mod that fixes that problem.

Clearly EA need advice on how to make better excuses because we never heard one about why PC gamers pretty much got screwed on the sequel to the game they fucking funded with hard earned cash.

Keep on reading into it guys cause valve isn't gonna tell us any of this shit for quite a while.

I managed to go through puberty and reach first year uni in the time its taken for valve to form a half decent fucking narrative in half life and they're still taking their time. Video games are literally the ONLY format where people can just say 'oooooh I'm not telling you anything about this mysterious plot point... but I'm not a lazy writer or anything. It&#...

Well I can confidently say that the wisest move in crysis 2's development was giving the PC community mod tools so we can fix their fucking mistakes and take that little slut called the cryengine 3 and push her to her limits before something else prettier comes by our way.

Actually, and trust me it hurts to admit this, it's probably because of Vin Diesel.

He's a big gamer and is really into D&D and science fiction. How many day to day gamers get the opportunity and the money to make and publish a video game they know will have market appeal (the riddick character is quite popular...well it was until the sequel)?

So instead of the usual "license the unreal engine and give it the Ukrainian grad student I paid to...

Please no, oh God please no. First the rumour that borderlands 2 is gonna be an mmo now this.

I really DON'T want human beings to become an integral part of my gaming experience. Don't get me wrong, l4d and tf2 and counter strike are real fun but I really don't want all the nuances of mmos suddenly becoming a staple of the genre.

Between this, portal 2, counter strike, tf2, countless steam sales which valve must take a few little pennies off here and there, half life, l4d, the potato sack fiasco and who knows how much cash off JJ abrams to shove a super 8 teaser into portal 2 I can feel pretty confident in saying Gabe Newell is currently laughing himself to death in his solid platinum computer chair whilst playing half life 3 and musing over G-man's origins.

Son of a bitch.

A logo isn't really news...

I don't know how volition do destruction. I imagine it would be voxel based and if they're willing to take on the challenge of implementing voxel based destruction with the graphic fidelity of modern day polygon based engines AND have it run on every day hardware then frankly I'll let go of the fact that a single pipe could hold up a sky scraper in guerilla because there's a reason no one else is up for the challenge.

Translated articles really oughtn't be submitted unless they're featuring screenshots cause otherwise you just get our hopes up and then we're forced to trudge through google's quasi-english.

I can't imagine a German person coming to a website thats 99% english for their sole source of gaming news either, so it's not like we'd cutting people who didn't speak english out of the loop. It's just I can't be the only guy getting increasingl...

Skill is defined as something that takes practice and talent. There's no skill in regards to the shots. There's some mild creativity and that's it. Sonic was a punishing shower of pain to who ever wanted to take it to the next level. Theres 2 levels for bulletstorm and that's 'bothered to find all the skillshots' and 'didn't bother to'.

But thank you for spelling out to me how to play a game in full capitals anyway. Clearly my opinion need...

For the last time Epic kicking people into fucking spikes isn't a God Damned skill. Nor is using a magical leash to pull them closer so you can kick them into more fucking spikes. Q and then E are not, and never will be, a skillfull combination.

Rocket jumping, switching to a rail gun and shooting the guy beneath you as you move? THAT's skill.

Or headshotting a scout mid double jump in tf2.

Or lagging behind in a l4d match with 15% he...
