very uplifting indeed

fuck yeah ! i am a huge oddworld fan but never had an xbox

cant wait to get munch and stranger on pc since they are not backwards compatible either on 360 !

@[hp] i know and i agree unfortunately i cant code html or php to save my life so i am completely reliant on the help of an old school friend who has maintained my website since forever but he unfortunately never finishes something beyond the 75% mark (i love you anyway riviera ^^). but since (hopefully) alot more people will look at my portfolio now i am gonna make sure the navigation becomes a hell of a lot more intuitive !

@3dnj .... polyvalent .... officially my new favorite word

Gloglebag: in big studios you are just a small goc in the big machine and i hate the feeling of not having control over the direction a project is heading ... i am just too much of an auteur! also "I" want to make something successful ! joining a team that is already successful kind of misses the point for me ... and with certain high-profile titles/companies like lets say naughty dog or the god of war team its like this: a couple of years ago i would have said id cut a foot off in order to work there but really i don't want to get disillusioned i don't want to see those games in a broken or work in progress state i just want to experience them in their final glory ... you know GET THE REAL EXPERIENCE id rather play them than work on them ^^.

add to this the fact that i really don't want to get paid in anything but euros right now and can only speak german and english ! so anything none english/german speaking European is not an option already.

and i really want to life in hamburg i am nostalgically in love with this city.

but there is no solid work here it seams so i am gonna freelance and work on starting my own company !

Seldoon182: hessi did the lions share

VoodooBenshee: so far i have quit every job i have ever had.

hessi: yes i am or i was till yesterday when id sounded like there is no more money to pay the employees with

thanks guys

or unreal:

but also low-tech stuff like wii specs is no problem:

it doesn't have to be a complete environment or building it can also be a prop package:

i can also combine 2d and 3d seamlessly (call it a bullshot if you want to ^^)

still not convinced ?

checkout my website for more:

i would compete if a super awsome concept artist would team up with me.

i have confidence in my own skills to BUILD the winning entry but i don't have the confidence to choose the winning motive !

thanks guys !

i bought it for ps3 2 weeks ago but it took play.com over a weeks to deliver D:

so far

+level navgiation feels fluid and tight

+combat is satisfieng as hell and silent take downs even more so !

+ some insane texture resolutions on the characters

+ all around great production value

+ embraces the ip !

+metorid eque world structure

- ugly color palette especially out doors

- unreal engine 3 fog and fov at its worst D: hurts my eyes D:

id definitely call this "the" surprise hit of the year !

doubt ill play it but presentation looks AAA !!!

ill pass on this i am done with the whole "swat theme"

i fear that he is in a tough spot becasue both the super arcady and the super realsitc end of the spectrum has been (and ocntinues to be) well covered by counterstrike and rainbowsix

but i love that they are not faking any screenshots:

i love you vivi but this dof none sense has to stop !

i don't know much about cameras and lenses but i know enough to tell you that there is none that will get you this "result" and if there is one (and a way to use it like that ) than nobody in their right mind would choose to do it !

don't try to fake something that doesn't exist in the world of film and photography !

the other screens and props look lovely though !

seams through and through solid.

last time ubisoft did a movie tie in with king kong i actually liked the game better than the movie so ... ...

... nah its james cameron the movie is gonna be way better

omfg why wasnt this on kotaku

i am feeling totally honored

thats absolutely rad dude ! i love it !

Yokai your map is great too

that does indeed look alot less dorky than the marine model form ns1 *runs* !

good stuff ! can totaly see why people believed it was concept art !

the gabs bneetween the monitors are totaly unacceptable and the fact that it doesnt extend to the top or bottom either is pretty epic fail ill never get a setup liek this i am just fine with one monitor

(waits for a cyber punk jack in the head so that we can directly stimulate the visual cortex... and stop beating around the bush like this ! )

my excitment level for this game is 0/10 and i am a sucker for any kind of time travel story ! so why doesnt this get me excited ?

scorsese making a super natural thriller ? i didnt see that one coming ...

trailer looks great gives me a silent hill-ISH vipe
