Great thing about Oz is the unpredictability. Because it's in a really ****ed up prison, ANY character can die and since the same level of introduction is given to a character when they enter whether they're going to be there for the entire show or just one episode, you never know who could be...

Oz is an incredible show, doesn't get nearly enough attention. Edit: Arrested Development also isn't in your list.

This is exactly why Beta tests are so important.

Hmm...The effect is similar, and it's strange to see it applied to some maps, and not others. What's there difference between the lighting in Sandtraps and full HDR? What's been added looks no different to Lost Coast or Episode 2 to me.

Alright, I've uploaded some screenshots from Sandtraps. To me, the lighting looks identical to Episode Two, and definitely is updated from the original Bloom-only solution. There are a lot of images, so I'm posting the album, and arrange them from oldest first so the sequences display correctly...

Load up Sandtraps and tell me what you see, because I see lighting that is identical to Episode Two. It isn't in other levels, but there is no way the lighting in Sandtraps is only bloom.

So my eyes are lying to me, and the light intensity isn't changing dynamically? I'll trust my eyes thanks, not you.

There definitely is HDR. The screenshots Deathmaster posted CLEARLY show the light intensity decreasing and increasing dynamically. But, there isn't HDR in every level, in some places the lighting is just brighter (City 17) while other levels have full HDR (Sandtraps). I noticed on the Steam...

Only oddity I noticed was water being really murky at a certain distance. Can't remember that from before, so I think it's a bug. I get small stutters when entering some locations too. Another couple of notes: fast weapon switch is like the new games, and you can enable 8x AA now instead of...

Just got "Submissive" for putting the can in the bin, haha. I can confirm this is the real deal Episode 2 graphical update. Every single object I've seen is updated to it's Episode 1/2 equivalent. Barney's forehead wrinkles, Combine command consoles are high res, Strider models are new, as are...

I can confirm from my play that texture quality has increased and models from Episode 2 are included, I spotted updated Alyx, Kleiner, Antlions and Antlion towers all new. Can anyone confirm Vautigants? They really stood out before.

I just came.

I guess the fact it's orbiting a star gave it away.

I think there's also the case of: for the Smoke Monster to leave the island, he has to destroy the island. If the island is destroyed, the light, or whatever explanation you subscribe to, is destroyed as well. With Smokey absolutely determined to leave, it was essential he was destroyed in order...

Well this isn't major news. Ratchet and Clank surely can't go any further, and Resistance will still be exclusive. This applies to a new IP, not the existing ones. Definitely a good business decision on their part.

I bow my head to whoever wrote that. Thanks for sharing. A friend of mine actually used Lost heavily in an essay about the use of myth in modern television and film.

I'd want Matthew Fox to play Shepard. For a few obvious reasons.

So that makes Mass Effect, Gears of War, Kane and Lynch, Uncharted and Pacman all confirmed for movies. Are videogame movies the new comic book movies? I hope a Half-Life movie is the equivalent of the Dark Knight then.

"He's going to help me do the one thing I could never do myself. I'm going to destroy the island." - Smoke monster.

I'm not gonna go deep into things, I'm sure Yorick and Adrik have that covered. All I want to say is: I kinda feel sorry for Michael. Everyone else got their happy reunion in purgatory/afterlife, and he was stuck on the island for all eternity. Also liked seeing the hieroglyphs on the cork...
