News Comments > Shadow Warrior "Reimagining" Announced
12. Re: Shadow Warrior May 9, 2013, 23:59 Sacrifice
 
I am skeptical as well. Still, a Batman: Arkham Asylum style game with a satirical Kung-Fu flavor could be interesting.

I am not usually one to play HD remakes, but the original is a game I would like to play with such upgraded graphics.

News Comments > Oculus Rift Won't Include DOOM 3
16. Re: Oculus Rift Won't Include DOOM 3 Mar 18, 2013, 13:29 Sacrifice
 
There is some negativity in this thread, but it seems mostly based on previous headsets. It is always good to wait for official reviews and pricing, but the initial reactions to the Oculus Rift are positive:

I might not buy the initial model, but once the tech matures and many games support the device, I would definitely buy one.

I would prefer to see an HD upgrade of the original Homeworld. It was amazing its time. Interesting story.

I liked the first game as well. I'd also be up to trying a bigger and refined sequel.

I took my time playing through the Legend of Grimrock and really enjoyed it. I look forward to the next one. There is some excellent user created content to play in the Steam Workshop. It should satisfy some dungeon crawling urges until the sequel is released.

Most people have an older computer that runs well enough for their needs. Tablets are still relatively new to the market and people are still buying them for the first time.

The screenshots (or mockups) are spot on for the 90s look.

I really enjoyed Legend of Grimrock. I took my time with it, investigating every corner and trying to solve every puzzle.

I look forward to more official content. That being said, I hope it is a standalone expansion. I am not sure I want to play through the same levels again with a few more options.

I also fell for the Brink hype-machine. Their first and perhaps last great game was Enemy Territory.

Their official forums members are generally positive about this release. They are aware of their mistakes with the first game and are attempting to fix the problems. I am looking forward to trying it. Still, it is never unwise to wait for reviews.

I guess we'll ignore how similar their respective websites look too.

You are really grasping at straws here. A storm cloud is dark, so having such a color on the website makes sense. It is in no way trying to look like Steam. I will defend this position because I like arguing no matter how insane my position may be.

Yep, you certainly proved that with yours. "Storm" is not "Steam." Storm Eagle Studios also has a U.S. trademark for video games on the name "Storm Eagle Studios" which shows a history of using the term "storm" in association with video games and a pending trademark for "StormPowered." In addition even though "storm" is not "steam", Valve has no U.S. trademark for "steam" combined with "powered."

My main point is that there is clearly a resemblance: It has two letters different, relates to water, and is a game distribution system. I think it is shady regardless of any possible trademark case.

Trademark infringement accusations are often ridiculous, but a digital game distribution system called "StormPowered"? I don't think Valve will sit idle with this...

I like it. I don't view screenshots or chat on the steam message boards often, but the organization makes sense to me and it might cause me to view them more frequently.

Ditto. We have to use Facebook accounts and not our old ones? Frak that! It's worse than v4. It's over. I live on Reddit, Blue's News, etc. now but I still struggle to keep up with them due to lack of times.

I definitely agree with you. I don't usually mind using Facebook to log into sites, but I was proud having my "user since 2005" stamp on Digg. Classic Digg for me is when they were purely a tech news site, I wish they would return to that.

I've been a Digg user since 2005 and for years it was my primary source of news. That being said, it has been losing relevance these past couple of years and I haven't been checking it too often.

I usually like seeing and trying new web designs, but this change is far removed from the original concept and it doesn't interest me at all. I think my time with Digg has come to an end.

Could it be a worthy update to the classic Dungeon Keeper? I am intrigued, but will remain reserved about it.

Yeah but its made by Terminal Reality. When was the last time they made any decent game? Never! So my hopes that is anywhere near decent are very slim indeed

This is a concern of mine as well. Seems like Bloodrayne is their most well known franchise and even that got mixed (but leaning toward good) reviews.
