  • San Andreas...

    Sorry dude. When the games were taking the awesome illicit stuff from real life (carjacking, extortion, murder) and making it the bread and butter of the game, that was fun. Taking the boring mundane shit and making it the game is boring and mundane. The most fun thing to ride in that game is a bicycle. I don't want to have to stop at the pizza hut and eat. I don't want to have to work a job in a fucking game. Worst design shift ever.

    San Andreas is a boring game that looks ugly. Tamagotchi gangster bullshit

    I thought it was a good solid game, I like the oldschool flavor with a couple twists of lemon. Spent about 10 hours on it I guess. Better than a lot of high profile games that get pushed out the door. I did enjoy the flight levels, I appreciate a flight vehicle that just does what I want it to do and goes where I tell it to. Felt better than navigating in maya ;P

    oh yeah and ROCK ON Art Bell

    Quote from RD

    Nobody can convince even the dumbest kid that doom is real.

    If shooters didn't evoke something very real in people, do you think we would find them so compelling?

    I for one hope there are programs like this on television when I have children so I never have to discuss sex with them myself

  • Lost Planet demo

    • ginsengavenger
    • July 15, 2006 at 9:35 PM

    I really, really enjoyed the demo. Way up on my list of 360 titles. I found the controls quite comfortable, the look and feel are really spot on IMO. It really just felt quite well polished and tuned. I was impressed how long the demo was too, Capcom put a fairly generous amount of content out there.

  • Spiderman 3 trailer

    • ginsengavenger
    • June 29, 2006 at 7:10 AM

    yeah it's just the suit, not venom - unless they're not showing the whole deal in the trailer. But why would they go straight for Venom when they can milk it for another full length feature?

    I'm pretty lukewarm about the spiderman movies tbh.

    christ it's a fkn circle jerk in here.

    Mino you know I like you but come on dude you can do more than this. This is well detailed and lit but that's all it's got: there's no underlying design. The setting is totally lacking, the entire thing is literally *level* and there's no open air whatsoever. Just let it be portfolio filler and move on to something interesting

    Not a PC game, but Terminator 3: Redemption was actually a pretty fun semi-rail shooter.

  • PS3 discussion update

    • May 25, 2006 at 7:31 AM

    I'll be buying a 360 in a week and a Wii off the bat. Maybe (MAYBE) in a couple years I'll buy a PS3 if it's well enough established and supported. Right now I'm very skeptical. And right now I'm working on a PS3 game.
