    Call of duty 4: MF overrated?

    Overrated like everything is a subjective term, its requires someone rate the game on an arbitary scale then you play the game and find their rating too high. Me I think it is (playing it on my PC btw) mainly because I hate games with infinite/respawning enemies. My house m8 (playing on his 360)...

    Zero Punctuation: Crysis

    Does anyone who hates the gameplay care to elaborate why exactly? Almost sounds like a lot of people that hate FPS bought this game then were surprised they didnt like it. I really dont get how an FPS fan could buy this FPS and of all things complain about the gameplay. Its like an RTS fan...

    Poll: Engines made for hypothetical pcs

    When a developer makes a game engine all the models decals textures etc are huge. We are talking like 2million polygon models here as the source material. These are then scaled down so they can run on our pc's and consoles. Now if they put in an option that doesnt scale it down as much, i.e. a...

    Franchises that NEED to DIE, and those that will last forever

    Zero Punctuation: Crysis

    Obviously deserved? A game thats recieved on the whole fair and balanced ratings? 10 reviews with 10 out of 10 is suspicious to me. Crysis reviews range from 100 to 80ish. Its gameplay mechaincs have been described as the most interactive and immersive to date. Yes Im a fan its obvious. But I...

    Immersive Gaming: Graphics vs. Fun

    Some of my favourite games are Planescape Torment, Baldurs Gate - complete series, and Vampire Bloodlines. All had excellent story lines well told with good lines. Vampire also had great graphics and i thought Baldurs Gate graphics were great. The beautifully drawn backgrounds thoguh 2D we...

    Immersive Gaming: Graphics vs. Fun

    Personally I think games companies should have an Art department and a coding department that work seperatly so that the graphics vs gameplay doesnt come into it. But wait they do. 'Spend less time on graphics more on gameplay' doesnt make sense as a texturer is unlikely to be able to code well...

    Wow Steam may very well be the dumbest application related to pc gaming ever....

    The retail box specifically mentions you need Steam and an internet connection to play. You can argue its an arbitatry requirement but what isnt these days. You need the Halo disc in to play Halo. Would be nice if it was legal to crack it but it isnt. Of all the copy protection methods I find...

    Poll: Jedi vs anyone else?

    Its allready been said but Magneto would own. A 8th generation or older vampire from Vampire: The Masquerade would own as well, Tremere anyone, how you gonna swing a sword when your bloods boiling? Jedi v. Aliens - Note the plural, as in a similar number to those found in Aliens 3. First...

    Actually we do know who is in the minority due to the steam survery which collects how much free hard drive space u have on the drive where steam is installed. 90% have more than 10gigs and 81% have more than 20 gigs free space. Also 38% having 250 gigs+ TOTAL (not free) hard drive space. I...

    Wow Steam may very well be the dumbest application related to pc gaming ever....

    The point i was making was PC only people look down on console players and console only players look down on PC players. Its human nature its not an exclusive club to either camp. Back on topic I dont like the fact that I cant run office off my pen drive. Though to be honest im not convinced...

    Wow Steam may very well be the dumbest application related to pc gaming ever....

    Who says they think they are the greatest? Maybe its the 'console tards' that think they are the greatest cos they dont have to tweak? PC only gamers think their format is better than consoles cos of flexibility multitasking and the controll system. Console players think there system is better...
