Games are always WAY scarier to play than watching a scary movie.
For me its because in a movie you can prepare yourself for what is about to happen, like when one of them is getting chased, so you can just watch to see what happens.
In a game you have to control that chase and make sure you escape, it feels like it is happening to you haha.
Sound design is 60% of what makes a game scary, you could have a really crap looking game and have it still be ...

Exactly, I have fetch and push notifications etc turned off and other battery saves and my phone (iphone) lasts comfortably to the end of the day when I put it back on charge.
What I am saying is there is no way you will be able to actually USE any of these features on your smartphone if you wanted to play these games on it too.
A battery is a battery, they are mostly standard used in all smartphone devices, the only difference i...
^^ lol no, I use my phone for email, web browsing, twitter, listening to music and watching youtube videos, ontop of texting and calling.
You don't have a smart phone like this just to text!
That's the point, it is NEVER EVER going to cope for more than a few hours of normal smartphone usage and gaming usage. You will have to choose one or the other to do on the phone in the day, and gaming will 80% of the time loose since most people actually NEED th...
It's not price for me it is battery.
What is the point in adding all of this to a phone, when the battery will barely even last for 3 hours of gaming, leaving you without a phone to use for the day?
Currently, a "standard" smartphone game (like Angry Birds etc) will drain your battery at around 10% every 15-20 min of gaming, and that's with some power saves on etc.
How bad is it going to be when the phone is playing resource demandin...
I haven't jail broken my iPhone, I've read alot of people say it's not worth it as there isn't that much gain compared to un-jailbroken iphones now in terms of the number of features you gain, plus it makes it unstable with frequent crashes etc.
Guess my give it a try though.
I personally have an iPhone and use it for everything, from checking twitter etc to games to looking over powerpoint slides on the bus to uni haha. Couldn't live with just a "standard" phone now, its like having a mini comp everywhere you go (basically a mini-tablet..).
I like the amount of options Android gives the user though compared to the customisation Apple gives (almost nothing except Wallpaper!), my contract is up this week, don't know wether to upgr...
Sorry I'll let you get back to "your" nation..
TW*T
Happy New Year to all Gaming Nations!
There may be a lot of bitching/fighting at times between fans of different platforms, but in the end we are all fans of Gaming!
We probably wouldn't have half of what we have on each console if it wasn't for competition!
:)
I finally got the 1st Dead Space for Xmas, still need to play it.
Is it a long game? Looking forward to playin it over the weekend, I hate playing scary games too haha but had to buy it since everyone says its so good!
Plus the second 1 is out really soon so I don't have to wait years for a sequel!
I understand Ram Constraints, but it would be nice if they acknowledged that it wont be added or something.
And you can't blame Ram for all of the other lack of features/enhancements they have neglected to add. Many of which are only small changes or tweaks but they seem to just be ignoring what we want!
I dont care about cross-game chat either.
I want re-designed interfaces!
Re-designed in-game XMB with a faster set of menus for accessing messages/friends etc is NEEDED, alot more than cross-game chat.
Also, I think it's great that all of the comments are filled with people asking the real questions that all of us really want answered.
I see so many people asking for re-designed profiles with added features for comparing game st...
There are a number of tablets out there now with flash support or front facing cameras etc, yet NONE of them have "killed" the iPad, even though they 'seem' to offer more features.
It's all about the software and OS. iOS 4.2 might be limited and closed, but it is great for all the casuals to use, fast/simple/stable and is capable of enough for the purpose of what a tablet is meant for, it is not meant to be used as a subsidy for a laptop, it is a multime...
Wow, they have really stepped up the graphics!!
I guess having 30FPS locked instead of 60FPS has made them able to add alot more detail/effects, because I have to say the opening section to R2 didn't look very impressive graphically when there was that battlefield right at the beginning, it had poor AI and very poor graphical detail...
^^ ye I thought that, but guessing that will definitely be added.
These are some of the most realistic graphics that are not CGI I have ever seen!
Ye, glad they understand graphics/presentation are important in a game.
You can't say they are lazy devs who don't listen to their fans! Unlike SOME.... haha
^^ haha I thought I was the only 1 who did that.
Don't know how many times I have restarted Oblivion to "play through properly" and end up coming out of tunnels and messing around again haha.
Amazing Trailer AND Release Date!?!?
You could like hear the audience "gasp" when they showed the sand effects haha.
Resistance 3 = Incredible
Uncharted 3 = Incredible
Killzone 3 = Incredible
3 is the magic number? lol
Can't Wait for next year, it's going to shame this years games!
HOLY SH*T, those graphics are....:O
Those quick gameplay shots looked incredible!!
Wasn't expecting them to show gameplay ( even though the cinematic is made from the in-game engine ;).
That looked good for CGI, nevermind in-game! Amazing Quality
Just because the PS3 is alot more powerful does not automatically mean it will have a better FPS and run more stable/efficient etc, you only have to look at most multiplats to see it is the development and coding of the game that makes it run smooth and stable, not the power the specific platform has.
It was developed for iPhone and runs better than that then on PS3, that says this game was a really poor port since the ps3 has much more power to spare!
