It's an IGN guy speaking, not a Ubisoft guy. And? Still not listening to bullshit. No more lies 
You could just watch the video on mute and judge it based on what you see. |

| Not really sure how anyone could fund this given Dyack's involvement. If I recall correctly, he basically ran Silicon Knights into the ground. Now he's asking us to give him money based on good faith? |

What annoys me about c&c games is that the camera angle is stuck at too fucking low just so you can watch all the shitty shiny gfx which i dont give a shit abt.
What annoys me is that Supreme Commander showed a whole new way of handling that which is immediately brilliant and yet nobody else has picked up on it (yet.. PA is to come). Ever played it with two monitors? You can dedicate a whole monitor to the battlemap too. Genius. Sigh.
Shiny is cool with me but I absolutely agree that C&C has been marred by ridiculously low views of a fraction of the battlefield.
Anyway, i'm disappointed that whilst this looks very nice I really couldn't give a stuff about multiplayer for RTS' except in co-op against the AI. Then again, i'm hardly drowning in RTS games to play which annoys me even more
C&C is all about micromanagement, much like Starcraft. Trying to manage individual units while the camera is zoomed all the way out would be difficult. Games like SC and Total War are about macromanagement. You don't need precise control over specific units and instead focus on broad movements with large groups of units. Completely different kinds of strategy games. |

| I'm pretty sure the publishers are the ones giving the keys to third-party sites. Valve would likely prefer that everyone buy their games directly from Steam but I think they're happy enough if people are just using Steam. |

Now if the game itself actually had a First Person mode, that would be even crazy cooler
The spies vs mercs mode has always had a first-person view for the mercs. |

| They just give you a Steam key like GMG does. One of the cool things about GamersGate is that you earn "Blue Coins" with every purchase, which can then be used to buy more games. The only downside is that you have to have enough Blue Coins for the entire purchase and not just part of it. |

I can't blame EA for wanting to cut ties with Steam either, who died and made them god of all pc game distribution?
The millions of people who use Steam, I'm guessing. I'm also guessing that the majority of those people only buy PC games from Steam. Unlike Origin, which people only use because EA slaps it onto all of their games, Steam is used because people like it. Yes, Valve integrates Steamworks into their own games too but they only release games like once every three years, so that isn't really enough incentive to keep people on Steam. Most publishers use Steamworks now because that's what consumers demanded.
Like it or not, Steam and PC gaming are largely synonymous these days. |

One of the benefits of being F2P is that they'll be forced to actually support the game post-launch and address balancing issues quickly. Generals had a lot of balancing issues and some of the generals were ridiculously OP (namely the air force general and the infantry general).
I'm disappointed by the lack of a proper SP campaign but the game will still have skirmish, which is the mode that most players prefer.
As for monetization, we'll have to see how they handle that. If you have to unlock units/structures/abilities, that will completely ruin the balance of the game. |

Dishonored and Skyrim for $15 each is a great deal. Lowest prices yet. $10 for New Vegas Ultimate Edition is a great deal too. If for some twisted reason you have yet to play any of these games, now's a good opportunity to do so.
Hitman: Absolution just dropped to $5 too on Amazon. It's not a very good Hitman game but if you enjoyed Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, you'll probably enjoy Absolution. For $5, you're not exactly taking a huge risk.

Interplay owns Shogo. Atari owns Blood. Basically, both of those IPs are dead and buried.
It's not really surprising that Broussard sold the rights. He sold the rights to Max Payne and Duke Nukem Forever as well. I don't think SW ever sold particularly well and never had any sequels, so it's not like it was a huge franchise or anything. |

I just got confirmation from a Flying Wild Hog dev they are in fact developing Shadow Warrior.
Edit... looks like the website was updated http://shadowwarrior.com/
They are making the game more in line with the original concept to avoid being labeled as racist. I dunno, I thought Shadow Warrior was hilarious and fun. This will be a wait and see for sure.
Disappointing news if true. SW's appeal was its over-the-top nature, especially for Lo Wang. |

COD teaches kids not to give a shit about SP and only buy/play games for MP only... they're gonna buy this and be all like, WTF? No MP, killstreaks? No DLC/achievements? arrr .. well in our day we didn't have MP! only dial up BBS where we downloaded FREE mods, like Aliens TC for Doom. Know what that is? i guess u dont..
I'm fairly sure this game will have both DLC and achievements. |

| Eh... they're basically just re-using Steelport and adding some new weapons/abilities. Color me disappointed. The fact that this used to be an expansion pack is all too obvious. Seems like THQ just relabeled it as a sequel because they needed money ASAP and sequels sell better than expansions. |

At the very least, pronounce it "wolf-en-stine." "Steen" is just terrible.
And yes, it can be awkward to use proper pronunciations during casual conversation, unless you're speaking to people who are aware of your obsession with proper pronunciation. If you're really concerned, it's okay to use the butchered English pronunciations. However, you should never try to correct someone and then cite the incorrect pronunciation as the correct one. |

| While I'm sure that many will be disappointed that they aren't going to make a proper successor to ET, think of it like this: they clearly weren't going to put any effort into MP anyway, so at least now they aren't wasting time or money on a tacked on mode. Maybe the SP campaign will actually be longer than 5 hours as a result. |

BTW, in English is is pronounced Heck-ler and Coke. So many people say Cotch, but it's Coke.
That's incorrect as well. It's pronounced "kohgghhh." It's a German name and therefore, only the German pronunciation is correct. Claiming that there's an English pronunciation is silly because it isn't an English name. It's like how people pronounce Wolfenstein as "wolf-en-steen." No. It's "volf-en-shtine." If you're not pronouncing it like that, you're doing it wrong. |
