Earwig Infestation 2.0 (Read 2317119 times)
Obliverate
The 16th man to successfully perform open heart surgery on himself while drunk. Well, I suppose "successful" is a relative term. It's true that he lived, but for the rest of his life he had to dress as a # leprechaun or his heart would stop.

Eh. They made it work with FF11 on both PS2, PC and 360 so who knows really.

Halo is kind of in the league of Doom and Quake. Except Doom actually outsold Windows and Microsoft paid ID for a MSDOS port to help sell copies of windows. Also the Quake engine is pretty much the basis for most of the shooters we play today.

Halo was the FPS on X-box because everything else was garbage or better on the PC. The most notable thing i can say about it is that after 4 games it hasn't gotten particularly terrible and it's still fun to play. But it's about as mediocre as it gets. It introduced nothing new to the FPS genre other then bringing it to the X-box and a bigger audience.

It's especially mediocre if you are used to stuff like UT2004 and games that are still technologically more advanced then Halo 4.

I went to pick up my copy of Crysis 3 today and I was planning on trading in my copy of Aliens: Colonial Marines. I'm cool with the guys who work at my local Gamestop so the dude just  straight up refunded me for it. He said "I'm not letting anyone who shops in my store pay for that garbage". Pretty sweet.

Anyway, I got a free copy of Crysis 1 for the 360 with my pre-order but I already have the game. I told Magnum he could have my download code if he didn't get one with his copy of Crysis 3 but I suspect he probably will so if anyone wants a free copy of Crysis 1 for the 360 let me know. If you haven't played it, its fucking epic.

I'll take it if no one else does. I tried running it on my laptop once. That was... well it was an experience.

Jesus. Fucking. Christ. Crysis 3, graphically, has to be the most ridiculous game I've seen on the 360. I'm constantly surprised and wowed by what this seven year old system can do sometimes. But seriously what the fuck how the fuck does this run on a 360 and look this good my brain is full of fuck. I can't walk 30 feet in this game without stopping to utter the phrase: what. the. fuck. I don't even want to think about how good it would look on a high end PC. I don't think my body is ready for that. If this game can run this smoothly and look this good on a seven year old system then next gen games are just gonna melt my eyes and brain.

I'm playing in 3D also which makes it all the more mind blowing just from the standpoint of how da fuck is dis running. Dem character models...just....how? I can't speak to how the game is overall yet compared to the last two titles but god damn, those fucking graphics. Cryengine > everything.

The Unreal 3 engine is why everything looks so fucking bland this generation. I miss the days when consoles were simple enough that outsourcing development and licensing Unreal 3 wasn't a thing. Or a world where everyone went with the Crytek 2 engine. I'd buy a game based on the fact it's using their shit over Unreal 3.

I think that is partially why games like Dead Space looked so great. It's not so much that it was pushing more polygons. But it had it's own engine and art. It's like why Dubstep sucks. It's the same samples being played by a bunch of different people. Dubstep would be good if they wrote their own samples or at the very least it would sound unique and not like that 90's techno garbage. Still though the fact that they could even get Crysis 1 to run at 30fps on the X-box is damn impressive. I'm holding off on Crysis 3 on the PC because Crysis 2 got a pricedrop fairly quickly. So as much as i want to test the game on my PC i'm actually kind of having fun with Crysis 1 at the moment.

The absolute best part about Crysis on the PC is editing your base stats and doing your best Hulk impersonation with Physics on high. I haven't had so much fun just running around into NPC's since Vice City.

The best part about the next generation of consoles is going to be the physics and animation. I bet we still have to deal with 30FPS being the standard though. Even ID couldn't squeeze 60FPS out of the 360 for Rage and it was clearly developed for consoles. Metal Gear Rising Revengances frame rate is fucking sick and on that basis alone Devil May Cry sucks in comparison. If the new God of War is 30FPS i'm skipping it like i did God of War 3. I miss the PS2's framerates and i used to think it was fucking slow.

In fact go get Revengance. Seriously watching it on Youtube isn't the same. When you play it with that 60fps framerate you can really fucking tell how badly other developers fucking make their games. Platinum Games is the best thing to happen to the third person action genre since Sands of Time and Ninja Gaiden Black.








The irony in making youtube videos is no matter what you do you are still worth less than a cat or a laughing baby.

Go ahead and give your code to Obliverate Xizor. I have a code for Crysis 1 on my reciept. The guy at my Gamestop was cool enough to give me the pre-order for Crysis 3 on release date. He also gave me full refund for Aliens as well. That was really cool but, it's a fucking shame at the same time. He said alot of people he knew were pissed about that. 

I wasn't on last night because I was sick as fuck. I'll be checking the game out alot over the course of this weekend because I'm off Thursday and Friday. I'm going to have some quality time for this.

I've been pumped for the new Tomb Raider for at least a year now. I was worried it might not shape up but the reviews today have been great. I can't wait to pick it up next week.
