    Going to get my dad to play through some good games. He only has a 360.

    I want to make a list of the best 50 games of the last 10 years, where to start?

    yes exactly, there is nothing in here even remotely close to a paced story, or even a break in the ridiculously shitty action to give you a chance to breath. why don't we have more games where an area features like 10 or 20 duces, and when you kill them that's it, why do we need a constant bullet ejaculation for a game to be "fun"? shitty designers, fucking mind numblingly distant from video games. i'd be willing to bet the kind of people who decide to ship with a corridor that spawn 50 guys haven't played a videogame since doom.

    well, maybe the guy had been changing his nickname repeatedly to more and more obscene or borderline offensive/racist names and this was the last straw. perhaps he was reported ingame using that name to be offensive.

    you can't get the whole story from one email a guy on SA (lol SA is still going wtf give up already) posted.

    RY: But why? Intellectually, I agree with you, but when I was in the class I was so angry, like, “no, that’s bullshit, you need to have a reason or else it was total luck that you finished a book with any degree of success.”

    interesting. i think you should read soem kerouac, and his style of prose. i get the constant feeling that for you everything must have some kind of deeper hidden meaning, or that everything must be designed in a certain way or it cannot possibly even be designed at all. great songs, great books, great games and mechanics have all been created out of pure luck, just doing what felt right, experimenting and creating and enjoying the process. this whole search for a deeper meaning will erode creativity rather than develop it.

    http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/11/22/lev…avey-wreden/The commentary is currently focused on whether "authenticity" is relevant to talk about in game development. I suspect you'll all be against me on this point, so here's a pre-emptive defense:

    Yes, authenticity is important. You can call it another name if you want -- "entitlement, respect" -- but to appear "authentic" is what young men crave and thus, that's what games crave, as the product of young men. Even the argument that I'm too artsy or pretentious is, itself, an argument that I'm inauthentic in some way.

    Sentura: Honestly I don't care to watch the video either. Can you tell me the point, briefly?

    the point is that you really should watch the video, trust me, pop it open on your lunch break and just watch.

    why is there a battlefield trailer for the first 30 seconds?

    and why has it taken 2 years to come up with this, cause now i am actually excited for this! a game that actually makes you think about stuff? yes please.

    grats on this new media burst, looks like the work was worth it!

    yeah, remember when rockstar apologised for every single joke they ever made in the GTA series, and that time they made a game where you could have underage gay relationships, and that time you fought every chinese person in new york (and they all worked in laundry shops).

    one thing that stands out to me in the overall scenes is that alot of that fine detail is getting lost, maybe you could use that to your advantage and focus on large strokes further from the camera and save yourself a lot of time

    why do the iranian game designers need to have blurred faces? is it because they would be attacked if they showed their real identity? you know, the most negative comment i got when someone found out i worked on video games was "oh, that's not really my kind of thing".

    Yeah everything is better than Molyneux.

    still the best example : http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gdc-2 ... type/30718?

    and prototype looked like shit.

    the games industry runs on a diet of poorly made coffee and semen.
