RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!


Recommended Posts

If I ever were a game designer I'd invent a character that has all traits of the Duke, Commander Shepard and Chuck Norris.

 

It would sell trillions.

 

Nobody would hire you. Because you're a douche.

I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. 

Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.

Down and out on the Solomani Rim
Now the Spinward Marches don't look so GRIM!

So did anyone buy Duke Nukem: Forever?

 

Aye, Balls of Steel edition, but mainly because it's DNF and it deserves a CE

 

Its all fun, peons are too pretentious these days.

I don't compute. if the average gamer is 37 years old, and MW3 target demographic is 13-18 year olds, how the hell do they make so much money :teehee:

Older gamers may not use as much of their buying power on games. Alternatively, Modern Warfare manages to sell well outside of its target.

Yes, the esa statistics are completely fake and politically motivated. Sure, if you count minesweeper, bejeweled, facebook etc, they're correct, but they never explain that. $50-$60 games? Not so much.

Gameplay from Dead Island: http://e3.gamespot.com/video/6318681/

 

It looks insanely good! Exactly the type of game I would build if I had any talent whatsoever!

 

 

Thanks for that link. It does seem pretty good.

 

Reminds me of Far Cry2, without the stupid.

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

Okay, I played some 2 hours Duke Nukem Forever, and I like it.

 

It's certainly not on par with HL2 or Crysis 2, but it's still solid fun. It reminds me of the old days of Half Life 1 or Quake 2 where shooters were still level design driven and puzzle driven, so, no cutscene bull****, no objectives a'la "secure that bridges till the choppers come", no artificial drama, nothing that could deprive the experience for just being pure and straight forward.

 

Graphics is also better than I thought. Is it just me or does the Unreal Engine 2.5 actually look better than 3? Well, probably a matter of taste.

 

If you are a Duke fan, buy this game.

 

If you're shooter fan that wants a break from all the boring Call or Duties and Halos or Battlefields, buy this game.

 

Otherwise, wait for a price drop.

the first 40 minutes in taht video seemed really boring. I don't know if I want to even play a shooter that has me running around some hotel for the first hour or so without shooting

Wii U is not going to be cheap

 

Won't be till 2013 or 2014 when the first good games land on that console.

 

I really really want the Wii U to be succesful and be heavily supported by 3rd party, because I think the controller has a lot of potential, especially for RPGs. Invetory, party, UI and all that stuff could be displayed and directly interacted with on the controller.

Hm Dungeon Siege 3 out already, that was a surprise.

Never tried Far Cry 2, but Dead Island looks good. Whats the catch? :lol:

People will complaint that it't too hard, it won't sell as much and another piece of innovation is drowned in a sea of crap.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*
