  • 3D gaming (stereoscopic etc kind...) do you care?

    Quote from Izuno

    Aside from the motion gaming stuff from Sony and Microsoft, another early big question ahead of E3 next week is about 3D gaming. What will Sony / MSFT need to show or announce that will make you interested in it if you are not already? From what I have seen, yeah, it's kinda cool. Some gamers I've spoken with act like it will be the biggest revolution in gaming since 3D gaming of the early 1990s (ie the kind many people saw when they played Doom's pseudo 3D for the first time). Do I want to pay $3,000 for a TV capable of displaying 3D games & movies? Meh. I checked out Monsters vs. Aliens last month at Best Buy and I found the 3D distracting. I went again recently and the only demo they had was the same movie. Would I eventually want this tech in my home if the content was widespread enough and the price of the hardware was low enough? Sure. Oh, wait,the glasses... Anyway, I'm skeptical that I will buy into it this year.

    Well the TV's have dropped from 3k to 2k for a 42in (Samsung), in Canadian dollars. Its not so bad considering they are 120hz and 3D compatible.

    I don't really care for the 3D/3D revolution either. Avatar was nice but the rest is a fad. Now everything (upcoming movies I would like to see) is overlayed with this bullshant.

  • Red Dead Redemption

    Quote from PogoP

    This game is so awesome. I thought Mexico was shit, but it got really exciting again now that I'm in Tall Trees/Great Plains.I love the little easter eggs they put in this game. For example, I just found a random 'stranger' quest, where I have to coerce somebody using blackmail... The developers give you an item in your kit called 'Blackmail photos', and there are 3 photographs of 2 fully clothed characters engaging in really exaggerated sexual acts, it's hilarious. Check it out!

    That side quest was awesome. Alot of the side quests were better then the main missions. Mexico was the low point, at least up until the end.

    The guy fucking the fat mexican chick on the table was hilarious though.

  • alpha protocol

    I donno if u have watched any quick looks or read any normally decent reviews, but the combat has been said to be shite and unrecommendable. But who knows, give it a try and let us know

  • What have you purchased recently?

    60hz isnt a con in my opinion. I don't like how movies, etc look on 120 hz, although games are slightly/ barely noticeably better.

    hmm a buddy has a 120hz samsung LED Tv and I think it looks amazing (for movies that is). I heard some people saying Sony's and Samsung's 120hz technology are the best, while LG's and Philips' are the worst. I saw a 120hz (240hz in fact) LG TV at the store and it looked horrible, full of ghosts and artefacts.

    In fact I went to the store only to get that LG TV but then I saw this Samsung next to it and it looked ridiculously better.

    I have only seen samsung and sony, but you know what I forgot about, its not actually the 120hz I dislike for movies, its the AutoMotion Plus processing which is actually adjustable and can be turned off. But if you like the soap opera effect, I guess keep it on.
