mkreku Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 ^ Very cool, a feature where you could choose which one, a la GTA's radio stations would be even cooler. Driving your Deuce around in the game you have this thing in it called the "Mouth of Metal", which is basically a radio, and we let you pick which songs are playing and which songs you skip, and you can shuffle and sort the songs by genre, and you unlock new songs as you play constantly. So I think people will enjoy the soundtrack most as they play the game.

Aristes Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 If it comes to PC, I will. I'm a metal fan of old. The new metal scares and offends my aged sensibilities, but some Iron Maiden or Black Sabbath would rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wombat Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Congrats on the console debut, Tim Schafer. A sad part is that I don't have a device exclusively for gaming. Comparing the price tags and the energy consumption of office PCs with those of gaming PCs, it may be good for me to buy a console but I play only a few games once a year...

It's miniscule compared to anything that generates heat: radiators, ovens, heating fans, water heaters, boilers, etc. Also, Psychonauts was on the consoles.

Wombat Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Power consumption? It's miniscule compared to anything that generates heat: radiators, ovens, heating fans, water heaters, boilers, etc. Yes but it is definitely increasing. Considering my daily tasks, I don't seem to need a powerful computer. Also, Psychonauts was on the consoles. I didn't know that since I don't check the news for console. Wiki tells me you are right...Psychonauts was on the consoles if not exclusively so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering my daily tasks, I don't seem to need a powerful computer. There's quite a difference between the power consumption while playing Crysis/encoding video and surfing the web/word processing/idling. You can look here for some power consumption stats(it's comparing different video cards, but you should get the general idea). I'm not saying that you should get a powerful computer, I just think that the cost would be more of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying that you should get a powerful computer, I just think that the cost would be more of an issue. Hmmm...I don't think you are wrong, either. Processors also seem to have such energy consumption/performance control such as Intel's SpeedStep technology. I definitely like my computer to be optimized for the current tasks they are performing. Having a mid range computer is in my mind at the moment but the range's CPU roadmap seems to be still in confusion and, even if Windows 7 is Windows 6.1, while Vista being Windows 6.0, it is a "new" OS.

Most games are really GPU-bound more than they are CPU-bound and since the current gen consoles are getting old in the specs department, it is also holding the games back, meaning that a mid-range GPU will run most games just fine. Windows 7 is awesome by the way, check out the beta/release candidate if you haven't already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. Even in that case, I guess I'd better wait. I'm currently on Pen 4 and I'd like to skip Core 2 series so that I don't have to change motherboards in a hectic fashion. Windows 7 is awesome by the way, check out the beta/release candidate if you haven't already. Yes, I hear good things about it. XP is said to be stable because it is 5.1 while Windows 2000 5.0, so, I guess Windows 7 is tested through Vista, at least, to some extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Never played those games. The only LucasArts games I have are KotOR 1 and KotOR 2. I think I just worked out 'why Sand' "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

GreasyDogMeat Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Tim Schafer's name piqued my interest, the 17 minute dev walkthrough put it on my must buy list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Looks alright. I don't really see anything close to "genius" though. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreasyDogMeat Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 The upgradeable hotrod looks so sweet in BL. This will probably be a day 1 purchase for me. I'm kind of jealous of those who grew up on Lucasarts adventure games. I was into the Sierra games like Space Quest & Kings Quest, which were also awesome, but I missed out a bit. Also didn't play Psychonauts until quite a bit after its release, and even then it was only because you can get it free on GameTap. Really loved the humor and art style and its the best adventure platformer I've ever played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oner Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I missed out on most of them too, and unless they port it to PC later, I'm gonna miss out BL too. ._.
