    I just played this at work, I think I'm going to buy it. Its awesome, and feels old school in a good way.

    Its just like Bluray's that sell for 30 or more... its pathetic. Tron Legacy. 35 bucks, common now.. Original Tron Bluray is 30 bucks, are you serious??? Disney is a fucking joke with their pricing structure. Money grabbers. 'rant done'

    If you had ever been at Disneyland, that wouldn't surprise you in the least

    Disneyland costs like 100 bucks for 3 studios and an amazing experience. The movies cost more than going to the parks.

    Personally I think 60 bucks is double the price a game should be these days, just released or not. I've never bought a full priced game for my PS3 or 360 ...

    if better actually meant better, I would agree. however, it's not going to get any better until they drastically change the way they're making these games (which they won't). the failures of fps cod/bf singleplayer campaigns have already been described here, so I won't add more to it. my point is just that this kind of set piece-driven design is a broken vehicle to work with, it's not going to take you anywhere no matter how hard you work with it. that's why it's such a shame to see competent developers waste their time on it.

    I will admit, Bulletstorm set a bar so high on the over-the-top set-piece style campaigns that I'm doubtful it can be topped.

    2 different games man, nothing to compare here. And of course a realstiic game cannot compete with science fiction/fantasy in terms of set pieces, as that stuff does not exsist in reality.

    A map I was working on from the past, was pretty close to being finished but the optimization was still a bit of an issue and I had no 3D skybox in it yet. Lighting really needed some work on all of interior areas as well, which are not shown

    Old Neotokyo Stuff I left when I started working at Threewave. I really want to find all of the other NT map stuff I was working on. So many files to go through.

    Hilarious in a way, but I don't recommend it. If anything just watch the trailer, you will save your self an hour. Amazing photgraphy though and some head explosions.[Blocked Image: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6F-N2nH7uVw/TS4cjDT3ZbI/AAAAAAAABz4/2Z2y8Ruu-tA/s1600/rubber+poster.jpg]

    I missed out on this when I was young. It looked to scary. I had wondered what the movie was and completely forgot about it ever since until yesterday. I loved Jeffery Combs in Re-Animator and Ken Foree from Dawn of the Dead, so this was a must see. Crazy gross old school creature fx were great! The story, weird as fuck, but in a good way. It was pretty good overall.

    Awesome Insta, cant wait! The cloning machine sounds interesting. Really cool write up on the difficulties you had while creating the feature.

    Yeah I'm really annoyed with those parts as well, it completely takes you out of the game, so unnecessary. I really don't get the point of so much scripted stuff, it's all very forgettable and generally annoying, and it really looks like a lot of the budget went into that .

    Looks as though it wasnt very forgettable when so many people are bringing it up in here

    [Blocked Image: http://thisisanawesomewebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/hobo-with-a-shotgun-lives-up-to-sxsw-hype.jpg]was looking forward to this because of rutger hauer. great acting and dialogue, but the movie was just too much (gore/unsettling) for me after a while. really wanted to like it.

    Deciever and I seen this the other week, was a great film, highly recommend seeing it

    It's a pity that with all the awesome nanosuit powers

    lol, there are 2, play stealth or not.

    I finished the game, was pretty underwelmed by the end.

    Quote

    (I was expecting a giant boss fight like the first Crysis or something like the walker in Halo 3 to break up the gameplay or maybe some story about the seth. There wasnt even any explination to what the hell the tenticle things even are, heh.

    Fought a total of 4 diffferent enimies the entire game, same encouter after another. Level design and locations were great. The ability to restart from checkpoint without having to kill yourself would have been nice. The vehicle gameplay/rail shooter stuff was awesome. Overall it was a good game though.
