This is fun. But goddamn brush editing in UDK, shoot me.

Built around the jump boots in basic UDK.

And proof, not that it's exactly hard to believe.

[Edit] Come to think of it, can you even play basic UDK levels with people?

Bouts of Super Meat Boy and third prestige of Black Ops. Playing more of it than I'd imagined I would.

Recently just finished up Super Mario Galaxy 2 and DKCR just before that as well.

I don't even know what I'm waiting on next. Dead Space 2 I guess, can't bring myself to play the demo though cause whatever I'm gonna buy it anyway.

Only robots that look like humans are scary. Pass.

Quote from Duff-e

Is there anything that's less unsettling and mysterious and more absurd and surreal almost to the point of comedy?

Dead Rising comes to mind. The almost intentionally bad cut scenes and levels of absurdity are pretty close to that. Takes what is a pretty standard genre and does some straight up bizzare shit with it.

A game with more balls than any Western RPG.

Quote from Minotauro

But yeah the game is so fucking boring I gave up after a few hours.

Probably the best singleplayer fps since Halo. Probably. [Blocked Image: https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/public/style_emoticons/default/mapcore_smilies/emot_shakehead.gif]

Quote from Steppenwolf

Two things bother me more and more about the show:- there is not one likable or interesting enough character, even the main character comes off as rather stupid

- massive logic flaws (so the blood can infect you then why are they messing and splashing around with the blood and the dead flesh all the time without care for protection? also trouble to find guns and amo in redneck country? give me a fucking break)

First point is fair enough but the second is hard to give it shit for. That's an issue with probably zombie fiction in general. 28 Days Later was the same, slicing zombies up in a spattering of blood and walking away with no worries about infection. I'll say though I wish it was something that was played up a bit more instead of being totally ignored. 28 Days used it to some effect with

Prestiged. Enjoyed it more than MW2, generally, but I doubt I'll end up sinking as much time into it. Maps are solid but I don't find I'm waiting for any one in particular to appear in the rotation. None of them really stand out...Launch is probably the only I'd say pops at all for me.

Im into crime drama movies alot so they sorta dominate my top movies but mine are:1. Heat

4. Collateral

10. Public Enemies

It's taken awhile for me to realize it but I don't think Michael Mann is actually any good. Heat is probably his strongest but everything else either doesn't hold up over time or is just a straight up fucking bore.

Not to take a hammer to your list or anything, just kinda reminded me. You got The Depearted on there, so it's already a good list. In Bruges is ace too.

Quote from dux

and just generally act in a uninterested manner.

Half the problem with 'journalists' on game sites is they inject their own shitty uninteresting preferences and views into the content they put out. I couldn't give a shit less about what some news aggregator thinks of a game I'm interested in, give me the essential information and leave your opinions for twitter. Just puts more between me and the videos and screenshots.

Too orange. Pass.

I thought there'd be a lot of awkward drama when he returned but she's just like, 'fuck you, my husband's back'. Good episode.

A console game it still is. With bad console ideas.

Playing the game as intended Vs. 'Jack Fuck Face's 24/7 DE_DUST no jumping, no swearing, no AUTO SNIPERS, let the mods pee in your mouth Server'

Quote from Warby

just finished "enslaved" earlier today+lovely graphics all around

+best COLORS in a video game in a Long time !

+main characters are like able and well written / acted

+plot is far above average for video game standards !

+puzzles are all pretty formula but still well designed and fun to solve

+best eye and skin shader in the business

-climbing (which you do alot) is a none event you just hammer the jump button to go down a linear chain of animations.

-combat although looking spectacular and feelign intesne is plagued by a camera that instead of zooming out to give you a better over view zooms more and more in to show you less of whats is going on and has a magic ability to spin around and point at nothing in critical moments.

-that third character was completely uncalled for !

-a bit too much Andy Serkis ! i love the man but he should have stuck to just voice acting all the life action footage of him was a total style break.

all in all: play if you like: ico, beyond good and evil, prince of persia, god of war, jak and daxter darksiders.

8/10

Demo was embarassing as far gameplay goes, both combat and platforming. I rarely shit on a game from a demo but goddam.

":119667e6]Their spawning system sounds weird. So you mean the spawn points move around, and the game doesnt mind wheter or not there's a alive player near the spawn? That's ridiculous to me.I play a lot of Quake, and the spawn point is simple and good, the game always chooses the farther spawn point from the point you've been killed. And you rarely spawn next to players.

Yeah, this is pretty standard cod spawning, a constant shifting frontline. TDM especially gets to the point where consciously shifting the enemies spawn around the level by flanking is part of the game, not just simply 'bad' spawning. Even though it does result in some bullshit kills and pisses people off.

The game is a modern Quake anyway, though, so it sort of fits. I think it's just seen as bullshit because a game with M16's shouldn't have people appearing out of thin air behind me. Which is probably fair, but ultimately missing the point.

I'd be surprised if Minecraft is even classified as a game, let alone looked at by developers with anything but wonder as to how it made any money at all.

Not to hijack, but check this out as well, if you haven't seen it before. Touches on some of the same stuff Jason Rubin was on about and a lot more.

Seamus Blackley's contributions to the industry are sorely under appreciated.

I hate that I noticed this.

Was pretty good though.
