That was ridiculously retarded.

Lightning seems to have gotten better...

Yup, preorder guaranteed.

They've said few times that it's a different team

Yeah, but TH claimed that they spent significant amount of time on improving animation, while results speak otherwise. To me that means we're getting bethesda bs treatment again, and that the game will be as crappy as their other pseudo rpgs

Crappy VA, stiff animation, awkward scripting, crap texturing on 360

Watched the leaked gameplay. Looked as crappy as Oblivion. Excitement level plummeted down... And I was so close to preordering...

Been playing Battlefield 3 a lot. God I suck in that game... On the xbox still need to finish DE:HR and FNV:LR and finally start putting time into Arkham City

man it does look better and better. I think i'm loosing it again - starting to think about giving bethesda my monies

I only played for an hour and it seems fairly ok, nothing special. MP is really good though.

PC? what's your origin name? I think it is Hurlshot24. That is my battleface name or whatever too. can't find you, just add me - vault_overseer

That. I don't know another studio that puts as much effort into little things as much as Rockstar does.

PC? what's your origin name?

I like GTA games a lot. GTA4 was great for it's portrayal of Easter Europeans. Was awesome hearing real Russians in that game.

Few questions, if you will: Lots of snipers and camping? Lots of bunnyhopping? How's the pace on the MP maps? I'm about to upgrade my rig sometime later this year and I can finally see what's all the fuss about directX10 and 11, and as a sideproduct I'll be able play BF3, so that's why I'm asking. Nope, doesn't feel anything like the beta. most maps are huge with good split between people going infantry, support and vehicle. Teamwork is a must. Also, played a small paris map where action was really block by block - it took a lot of effort and coordination to be able to push towards objectives Hows the network performance in a fully packed game, many bugs? After being burned by every pre ordered PC game for 12 months in a row I'm severely jaded but I like to hope Battlefield 3 isn't going to suck for me on launch day. There are bugs, just like in every BF game to date, but judging from DICE's response they're pretty serious about supporting the platform. There was a already a huge day one patch Do you play the PC retail version, and if yes, how is Origin implemented? Yup, pc version. Origin is bit annoying, but you don't need to use it much at all, all of server searching and friend management is done through battle log which is awesome. Check out reddit BF3 community. There are few people from dice there: http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield3

Battlefield 3. Lots of fun.

Wow I think I was only able to fathom about 40% of that. MW2 had $200 Mil marketing budget. MW3 has, probably, even more dough in its marketing budget. It's not a question of which game is better, never has been...

Preordered CE of Arkham City. Getting pretty excited for it too

I like a lot of Apple products, but the culture surrounding Apple.... to hell with it. But, Jobs also pushed Pixar through some tough times, and for that I am forever grateful.

Max doesn't sound like Max.. I can dig the new setting, and I guess I'll still wait and see, but so far they're missing the whole "Noir bordering on self-parody" (which then went into conscious self-parody at least in parts with the 2nd title). It's rockstar, they're serious business.

Well, looks like bodycount was a great success http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/14/codemast...ount-developer/

Looks like they posted the 20 minute walkthrough from E3 on their youtube page Pretty much came thing as before, only know in really good quality, with music

Wow, i didn't realize the statue was so huge! that sort of justifies the price actually.

DXHR. Deleted bodycount demo, tried SM. Cutting through orks is fun for about 15 minutes.

So I guess I should be looking at this game now that DXHR is out...
