I don't exactly get the whole thing of "sad state of PC gaming" these days PC gaming is all about MMOs.

Games that don't work or can be done on a console, therefore PC gaming becomes unknown of console only players.

Anyway, all these features haven't been in games of the 2000's mainly because the next step was going going over the net.

FOV isn't something all FPS games do on a PC, but PC GFX cards can handle s...

This isn't a syndicate game.

You were a corp boss who simply led cyber solder around the place.

This is a FPS with you being a cyber solder who isn't in control of anything.

I've read a preview and the mag was saying it's good but it's not really syndicate and it seems ok but a tad gimmicky

Five cars FOR FREE!!!

Wow, I got 5 free premium cars when I bought my copy of GT5.

I honestly hope it's not made for any console, and is a PC only release.

In Australia Game don't sell PC games so I don't actually bother with them.

Even though I have 2 PS3.

It all depends on what price Nintendo go with if it's cheap like the Wii then it'll do fine.

People don't play heaps of games on their phone because the battery doesn't last long.

The 3D games can chew up a GS battery in 10 mins easy, then you have nothing but a paper weight, the GSII etc with multi cores will be far quicker to kill the battery.

That's why LG and HTC new quad core phones have a very large battery but quad...

Kenict isn't a money maker for the XBOX, it how ever is a money maker for everything else, that's why it's now bundled with the Xbox for free rather than have people buy it as an add on, as people just wouldn't bother.

Once it got hacked to work on windows it took off from there.

The Kienct 2 AD isn't even about the XBOX at all it's only about how you can use it for office and dealing with photos etc all in windows.

I've bought a new slim PS3 powered it up 2 times and the fat PS3 hasn't been used in 6 months !

beat that!

marketing is only 1 thing.

To make people want to buy something you also need content.

Sony have plenty of content but their products don't access it fully, everything is moving to a digital copy/download only type service and I think Sony is going to end up only releasing via downloads at some point 2-3 years time maybe sooner.

MS market heaps but that's all they do really, they don't make games anymore, they have dropped flights...

or to have it on consoles which don't support Dx11 you need to use Dx9.

Though that would only cover the PC and 360 side it wouldn't cover the PS3 as well.

I think this whole game is a trade off, they have gone for a FPS because they think people want to play as the people on the ground even though the game is based on a remote controller forcing people on the ground to do what they want.

They have also dropped all the addon you could d...

The problem for people is they think next gen will be some really up to date hardware that cause games to be really good or changes them drasticly from the current stuff.

The reality will be a slight upgrade in hardware and games pretty much the same deal.

The PC shows what the next gen is currently, there's nothing really new or different from the current stuff.

They could pop in some ram but that would be pretty much it in terms of &quo...

Well if you read up on the news of the time, you'd see people where complaining about how it could play blu-rays and not games etc and they weren't fussed about Linux at all.

The whole Linux thing only have the pirating people complaining because they can't use it to play games on it.

Geohot got your most fav feature removed go and complain to him about it.

Ah I wouldn't worry.

I'm not interested in CoD at all, it's like the early 2000 FPS games for me.

so I've been there done that thing many a year ago.

So I've not bought any CoD games at all.

Do I itch to buy any, lol no because I'm not fazed one bit about CoD it can be the largest game or fall flat for all I care about it.

Sony is a content maker though.

besides the products they also make music and movies so they either support or don't these SOPA.

It's probably come in now that these guys are hacking into stuff as they'll grab all their domains and stuff.

After all this is only on the net and the SOPA stuff isn't all about the net

yes they can.

The government only has to go through the records and trace them 100% take their servers off the net go through everything.

they only have 10 or so IRC servers 8 are in Russia and a couple in the Netherlands it's not hard to find the info on where the servers are.

The IRC servers will hold all their real IPs and you can can simply trace the person then you'd freeze their bank accounts and remove the money, they can't...

Last time they did this all the PSN users DDoS their own IRC servers by posting anom sucks all the time, they where down for a day or 2 themselves.

they go so pissed off with it they had to ban IPs from their own servers.

Quite laughable as they couldn't handle their own tactics being used against them but only by 50,000 or more people where doing it from all over the world.

This is what happens to companies that are slowly going down the tubes.

They don't get as many people in the door, then do sales every month, (some of which have been good much cheaper than steam sales) then start to mix things around.

Australia EB is the only store that even sells PC games on the shelf anymore all these rest don't even bother to stock them.

Some of the places the staff whinge when they have to look it up on the compu...

@DragonKnight

The main reason why you don't see it from many devs is that most consoles games are only FPSes and platformers and stuff nothing that would be trying to hit up a database and reading/writing data to all the time and using memory to hold the data.

In RPG games you'll be caching and reading/writing data you almost everything in-game, like a sword that could be a default one but changes when you add a gem needs to always kept in memory and...

It won't be the saves.

It'll be people trying to play a game for 25 to 35+ hours straight.

You generally can't do that on any platform even on the PC games will fall apart at those lengths of time, simply because over time data becomes corrupt and if you save that corrupt data then it won't load up properly again there after and you lose all the data.

The devs will be expecting people to really only play the game for 2 to 8 ho...

Buggy - it's gotten a lot better I will say from years ago, in the last 12 or so months way better.

Privacy invading - I guess it can be seeing as it hands out all your info to valve who then hand it off to game companies etc.

Spyware - hard to say but you can get tons of stat based programs that hook into steam accounts but they also complain about wanting a steam code all the time.

When you are trying to install a steam based game disk ...
