I've used 3DSMax a bit and prefer XSI. Probably because I've used XSI more. The apparently worse GUI doesnt really matter to me because I use all the keyboard shortcuts 95% of the time rather than clicking on anything.

Quote from Furyo
I saw on Gamasutra yesterday that analysts predict the PS3 sales are going to pass the X360 ones with the announced price drop...
I can't see that happening for a while, the Wii/360 are on what around 10-12m depending on who you look at. The PS3 is between 3-4m so say that nobody bought a 360/Wii in the next year at all and the PS3 sold twice as quickly as it has so far, it'd still be like 2008/9 before they overtook.
Edit: Metroid 3 soon

XSI ftw.
Wonder if the uni PC labs will be updated with XSI6 when I get back, I know they have the full CS3 suite on them now.

Looks cool, looks like Diddy Kong racing which is cool.
Have a butchers at some of their environments for ideas, their snow levels were cool.

No problems here

This has been like this since...oh...the release of HL2. Unless something bigs changed in the mod tool in the last 5 or so years.

Tried the new drivers, worked better. Still laggy in places, guess I need a 8800 card

Cool demo.
+ Amazing theme
+ Water fx
+ Cool weapons and plasmids
- No level loading bar indicator
- Not amazing at anything less than high
- Widescreen support is arse
-
I think I'm gonna have to change the drivers cos at high its pretty stuttery but amazing looking. Anything less than high looks like badgers arse.

Megatron looked so stupid
I always got annoyed by Megatron in the cartoons and first film, fuck off huge robot that transforms into a....tiny pistol. At least when he got turned into Galvatron he was marginally better.
The new film he is hardcore. Always hated Primes energy sword thing, seemed like a cop out.

I could never have just 1 HDD in my PC, not too keen on RAID either. I had 2 160Gb HDD's and they were fine till the main one started smoking, luckily it was the OS and programs HDD not the data one.

I may be easily pleased but it was the best film I've ever seen at the cinema.
Had me hooked throughout the 2 hours and my jaw on the floor through most of it.

I thought it was some sort of banana holder on first glance.

Little bump.
I have had a few folks send me a PM/email about taking part and will be shortly making the questionnaire and sending it out.
I would however like about 5-8 more people to take part in it. All answers to the questions can be made anonymous if you so wish, else I will simply state your name/position/email in it.
The only thing you do need to have, is to be employed in the Games Industry in some form be it modeller/mappers/texture artist/animator/tea monkey/project lead/whatever. Modding doesnt count I'm afraid.
Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

I've seen lots of people playing and ranting/raving on about MGS but never played any of them.
I don't know why but something never clicked, possibly not wanting to be associated with weird sweaty PS fanboys nerdgasming over it in dark rooms.

I found Postal 2 to be an amusing waste of time.
