I had a TI4200

Awesome card, right up until it melted.

As games grow larger, I think we'll see more and more outsourcing of content creation like models/textures/skins. Why would an AAA developer have their staff of ~15 highly skilled modellers/animators working on creating 50 different car models instead of working on more unique content which actually takes some skill to create? That's where outsourcing could come in handy, production of "plain" content which really only takes time, and isn't much of a challenge for a skilled artist.

Waiting half a year (probably longer, this IS valve you know) to continue a story is insane, and a waste.
Damn it.
I don't think they've planned out an entire "normal length" game and then just chopped it up into 3 parts. I'm pretty sure each episode has its own story-arc, it's not like you'll be going into a level transition only to have "map3.bsp not found, click here to preorder episode 2" appear.
If I'm proven wrong once it's released, feel free to yell at me

Anyway, I'm a-ok with the episodic format. I'd rather wait 6 months to play 3-4 hours of singleplayer goodness instead of waiting several years to play a 8-10 hour game.

It was clearly a joke — I don't type with a total lack of grammar when being serious. xDThinking about Unreal's map some more, I think it was actually ol' Mikezilla who did its textures. Do you know what I mean, Mikey?

Was it the one with the lighthouse? I remember the map, but not the name.

Very nice! Reminds me of de_airstrip for 1.6 for some reason, must be because of the colors/lighting.
Anyway, nicely detailed and I love the "overgrown" look.

I'd easily sell my soul to work at Valve. Hell, I'd sell it for a greencard

You should fix the "lip" on the hole-model in the ceiling in the first shot, other than that its looking really nice

That's the question I ask to myself when I think about working on this industry or not. If you don't get a degree now what will you do for a living if you get tired of games ? Clerk in a convenience store ?
Same here. The problem is I have no idea what else I would want to do for a living. I'll probably cling onto the industry for as long as humanly possible, then sell souvenirs on the street until I retire into homelessness. The future is a scary place
