I'd say the worst of E3 was the all the dev's showing games at "silky smooth" 24 FPS, absolutely disgusting.
Other than that, I hope Id suprises me with Doom. Go back to high octane/fast paced action with very minimal cinematic set pieces. But I fear it will be Bioshock: Hell rather than what...
Avoided the new episode before watching the movie, saw the movie today. Absolutely loved it, by far my (new) favorite comic comic book movie yet. Marvel domination with GOTG, Avengers AOU, Antman movie, a few tv series (including a netflix series) in the works and a Dr Strange movie. Phase 2 has...
The show has gotten progressively better since the pilot episode, but is it the next Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad? Probably not, if you love the movies, I say give it a shot (even if /co/ absolutely hates the show). I haven't watched Cap2 but I really want to see that movie (CA:TWS and...
A co-op game with Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance would be kind of harmful to the narrative of Half-Life, but other than that I would be ok with it. Co-op game with a rebels story Synergy style could be really fun, especially with friends.
If the Bot Enrichment center is any indication in recent...
Diablo 3 had a very rough launch, I remember the complaints about the always online requirements and the connection problems. Blizzard want it to be a "social" game, kind of like EA did with Sim City and Battlefield.
Valve seems to be going that route too, just listen to Gabe's talks the last...
Video games also could use a NOLF 3 with all these 2deep4u crap today, another Kate Archer game would be fun.
To be honest I've kind of lost interest in a HL3, still want that Prospero!
Agree with HG and others, Half-Life 2 was good but Half-Life 1 was a better game. For one the gunplay isn't as good as HL1 (more varied weapons and tougher AI) and the HL2's (and episodes) level design was dumbed down because autistic play testers like this and this
I think a member on...
/v/ was playing this song on the board today with the name change "where were you when gaming died?" Both Reddit and /v/ have been rather emotional today.
I was exaggerating.
But that is not to say that Half-Life 3 (if it hypothetically releases) can't be a massive disappointment, time doesn't always mean a better product. That's what I meant.
SFM has post processing and lighting effects that wouldn't be possible in real-time, I would prefer the older methods with everything in the game being done in the engine (especially with how it blends well with the rest of the game). At that point we just might as well put every other "cut...
I think it depends, if there is another G-man intro (if HL3 hypothetically actually releases this millennia), will it be SFM based or in-game based? If it's the former I will kinda be disappointed. The beauty of HL1 and HL2 intro/outro was done all in Source/Goldsrc.
Basically they're doing what Squeenix, Blizzard and even Bethesda do now. It's kinda disappointing too, I say to myself "wow, look at those graphics that will never be in this game!" I just want actual gameplay instead of prerendered CGI.
Actually it reminds me that Valve hasn't been using in-game stuff even more, Valve basically has moved to what most developers do now anways. Intros (L4d2's is a different kind of intro), outros and even trailers were done in SFM I think.
The trailers in recent years have been SFM stuff, where...
Remember UBIsoft is known to use bull-shots for promotional screens, it was the same thing with FC3. Then again that's pretty much AAA games in general
