Quote from Taylor

Why are you on Kotaku?

I know right!

Oh hell yeah... like i didn't have enough games on my backlog. This looks like so much fun!!

Yeah, funnily enough I actually played DeusEx:HR after I finished Mass Effects 1 and 2 and I found ME quality of the dialogs, the dialogs tree, and choices etc pale in comparison to DX's. And tbh for me, that's what Mass Effect is all about, the dialogs and the choices and it's what made me play through them.

Tbh, the first one is the worst of them all in my opinion (Sorry Minos and Chris ) The gameplay feels so clunky and old, RPG elements on it is a bit weird and badly explained, UI is bad but the plot of the first is the best of them all so it's worth to put up with all that just to experience the awesome story. ME2 and 3 are absolutely awesome tho, specially the second one (my fav, and it was GOTY)

So yeah, my advice? Try and finish the first just so you can carry the lore and your character to the other two as you can use the same save game, and by the end of the trilogy you'll know why this is considered one of the best franchises ever.

This is out this week btw.

Well, i very very very rarely pre order games. There's rarely any point to it, unless the game will be released with a limited edition I really want to get my hands on, and I know it will sell pretty fast. Last example of this is bioshock infinite songbird edition.

DE:HR is epic until you see the ending

It's not THAT bad. I didn't mind the 4 buttons to see a cut-scene thing, even the original deus ex is more or less the same, just... less obvious, lol.

What I did minded, was the horrible bosses, but hey, they officially apologized for that.

I just want to see the sequel, asap.

A Good Day To Die Hard? No, it's a good day to live hard, live so you can watch many great films and avoid septic shit like Die Hard 5 like the Ebola virus. Should you watch this film? NYET!

Jesus dude, what were you even thinking? Did you even bother reading about the movie? It's a pretty unanimous consensus that the movie is pretty bad.

Yeah, I'm starting to have the same with my eyes Thrik. You can always get a bigger TV, I bought a 65" and I fucking love it, perfect size for a medium sized living room. I get so used to have a monitor close to my eyes, sometimes i have to struggle a bit when reading small letters on a TV

I paid a visit to a ophthalmologist and i'm gonna have to wear glasses everytime I'm in front of any kind of screen, or reading. Getting old sucks.

Sorry, yeah — I meant the build quality. IMO the Xbox 360 represents some of the worst standards I've ever seen in any console generation, not just the total console failures that need no introduction but also the pad. Its D-pad is so laughably bad I almost throw it through my TV sometimes, the battery compartment plastic/metal is relatively brittle and has caused two of my pads to be virtually useless as they can't get juice from the batteries, and I've had a stick on one go weird too.

My general experience with the 360's hardware has been bad, whereas my PlayStation has been going pretty much since launch with no issues whatsoever. That kind of goes for every Sony product I've owned though, they do seem to take a certain degree of pride in their physical products.

Yeah, this defines exactly my feelings about the XBox. But, even with that being said, the bad dpad, the shorter battery lifespan, etc I could still look the other way if at least playing on that console didn't have so many weird little things.

Little things like the console Menu UI full of adds and even the menu sounds.

And why does console asks me everytime I boot a game where I want to load/save my save games, if from the memory card or from the disc or from the cloud, why doesn't it just remembers my last choice? It might sound tiny and insignificant but oh well...

Not bad! Not as sharp as actual monitors, but i bet it's still cool!

Holiday 2013 confirmed! Start saving them bucks.

HP didn't know. He was just saying the Sony conference is in 30 mins when it's really in 1h30m. I hereby conclude that helder is drunk. Again.

Well... I am drunk, but the conference is actually starting RIGHT NOW ON GAMETRAILERS.

*Geoff Keighley impersonation*

Edit: actually, you're right. lmao

I know dude, I was trolling! Too much EOT, sorry.

why do you keep quoting all the negative reviews? there's far more positive ...

If you can't be arsed to post it in here, then you most likely wont get any replies.

I think the above pic is way to dark, can't see a thing or distinguish any details, but like you mentioned it has be said already.

Judging from the bottom pic, I think it came out pretty good. Texture is overly noisy at areas and spec is really (!!) exaggerated (typical marmoset look) Also, that specular map is a waste, it's either black or white making the reflections really contrasty.

I would recommend you also make a gloss map. Metal textures without gloss maps don't look believable and they just look like plastic.

I see smoothing groups errors on those two engines, those scratches on the engines look gigantic and really out of place, and what's that purple color on them? You might wanna think about including a few more materials into your object as well, some plastic areas, some cloth here and there maybe? Some rubber, some diferent kind of metal? Maybe some chrome? (To achieve this diferent looks with a single texture sheet you NEED to have a gloss map)

Also, those bolts on the texture look extremly big and it's making the ship look like a toy recreation. Real life ships would never have such big bolts.

While I don't doubt for a moment that today's announcement will be for the PS4, can you imagine how cripplingly disappointing it'd be if it turned out they're announcing something else and the hype simply got out of hand due to the Kotakus of the world? That'd pretty much sink the PS4 before it even launched.

Dude, that would suck monkey balls... lol. But I doubt that, why would they go ahead and create these videos then? https://us.playstation.com/meeting2013/ (History of the PS)
