My ePeen is bigger then yours.

Break out the tape measure boys!

(I gotta agree with djLith though - those graphics are fairly weak)

Not really, though. Gotta look further than the nose though; further than the characters that draw your attention. The environments are pretty amazing. I also like how the clothes are influenced by the movement of the wearer, though Max Payne 3 had that already too.

For a sandbox like GTA, these graphics should be fine for our standards. I don't really get the critique.

The game is very much like the first one except with a more open world feel. You really should read up on the plot of the first game and go through the tutorial/prologue in order to understand wtf is going on.

I remember something about stealing babies..

I come from the Thunder Cats era myself, but I don't get what's with all the enthusiasm about this game. The gameplay is, of course, the same as Far Cry 3, and I take the exotic jungle palette over this crazy shit any day

99%, Jerykk? I tend to think GTA5 won't come to the PC, just like RDR.

Max Payne 3 came to the PC because they knew te majority of the fanbase were PC gamers. Not so with the GTA series.

Lets have a bet. I say it won't be released for the PC

Exactly, SpectralMeat. Like you, I never understood ahy people pre-order games -- sometimes months/years before release! It's not like they get out of stock, are cheaper as pre-orders, or that the pre-order bonus is anything interesting. Hell, most of the pre-order bonusses completely RAPE the difficulty balance and fun, because, for example, most of the early loot you find will be useless because of the imba bonus items.

Regarding A:CM.. the joke is on the people. Completely on the people. I already knew the game would be a fcking flop judging the misrepresenting trailers.

Stop pre-ordering and pull your biased head out of your ass. This way you won't waste money on a game that will surely suck.

That first gameplay trailer some mention... I don't trust it. It looked too scripted; too perfect. And I'm not even saying that with a naive hint in my tone that hopes that maybe it was all honest gameplay with dynamic events.

I remain sceptic about this game until I see a gameplay vid that doesnt get my suspicion radar bleeping like mad. Those gameplay trailers are often a whole lot less cinematic and less "perfect", which is completely fine.

I'm afraid this game will have too big a focus on this new element they brought to the sandbox (hacking tech) which results in too little focus on the main aspects that make city sandbox games so much fun, namely: driving, shooting, and these days definitely proper melee combat and climbing.

We'll see. Too little proper footage for even the slither of a verdict.

Was actually hoping Monaco would land higher, but that was a good DA price (vs content).

Also, go buy Monaco!



Agreed, Monaco is a much better use of money than Mars War Logs which is a pretty awful b list RPG. Someone compared it to Alpha Protocol earlier and that's really doing Alpha Protocol (an unfairly tarred, misunderstood game) a disservice. They are not even in the same league.

I freaking loved Alpha Protocol. Crappy graphics, I guess minda mediocre gameplay, but fuck me was that game good. The story, the choices/consequences.. amazing.

I cannot be moved by any of this. Not until it's getting announced for PC.

Many of us thought RDR was coming to PC too. -_-

Based on the trailers, I think this is an early game of the year contender. Halfie, you said you've been playing it? Would you concur?

A joke, right?

Mark my words: This game sucks.

Admitted, that's only based on two trailers and some screens. But that's all da mastah needs. Mass Effect wanna-be, although that's all right. Dunno, after Dead Space 3's fuck up I'm already done with co-op.

I find stealthy combat can be just as engaging as pure avoidance personally, sometimes more so. Finding a balance is really difficult though.

And the above comment is what you're not getting from my earlier post, Jerykk.

I understand that if I want Dishonored or whatever other game to be more challenging, an option to make it so is to completely disregard some of the key aspects of the game. I can make Saints Row more challenging by stop using weapons, ffs. I know that's an oversimplified example, but I guess that's what it takes to get my point across.

Like I said before, there's a grave unbalance in "stealthy" games lately.

"You can't have it both ways" is what you've got to say to the developers today, who want to put both Die Hard action and sneaky stealth into games. If you got into "trouble" in Dishonored, you coujld completely eviscerate the enemy. Yet if you remove all the action and unbalanced aspects from Dishonored, you get an extremely linear and boring gaming experience. And if you don't agree with that, that's fine.. but fuck me if the new Thief is going to be as boring. It'll be the end of me ffs.

PS: And yes, Blink was a fun skill. But that's beside the point. A naked Jessica Biel running into your house is fun as well, but she broke the front door and ruined your movie night with your wife.

Don't use blink!? Are you kidding me, Jerykk? How far does your loyalty for the game go to come up with that retort? Blink was about the only thing in Dishonored that made the bland gameplay a bit interesting. I already gave up on all the visceral Outsider skills because they implies having to kill, which I didn't want to do -- just like I gave up on disguises in Absolution because it was a broken feature, but that kinda defeated the idea of the hitman franchise. You telling me I also had to give up on blink, and maybe even the higher jump too. Hell why touch the skills upgrade system at all?

In this way we can make every easy game "hard". But if it means you have to skip gameplay content for it, it's simply unbalanced and or way too much "balanced" toward the broad audience. And THAT is the exact problem with stealth games these days: they want to make it interesting for the trigger-happy action oriented gamers as well. It's why Hitman's balance was fucked up, why the last SC was fucked up and why most probably the next SC will be fucked up as well.

The most retardedly simplified and easy "stealth" game of the last few years gotta be the over-credited Dishonored.

"Huh who's that?"

I would give my left nut for a true RtCW sequel.

No XP.
No levels.
No gun mods.
No RPG bullshit.
Just shooting nazis.

This. As long as you're talking about the MP.

The RTCW singleplayer was bland, dull and 4 or 5 years too late for what it had to offer. Pretty much like Dishonored, come to think of it.

If this man knows how to write horror, he has yet to show it in my book.

"Write" survival horror? Surely you mean "design" survival horror. This is a game we're talking about, not a book or film. Survival horror doesn't need good writing. It just needs good atmosphere and the ability to make players feel vulnerable and uneasy. Gameplay first, writing second.

Yes, I guess I do mean "design". I think it's how you look at it. There's allot of writing involved in the process of putting atmosphere together. But not to sound as an apologist, I guess I mean "design" indeed.

If you look at RE1, with a mindset of the '90s ofc, it's easy to see in what horrible proportions the sequels failed in bringing horror -- the horror that makes you uncomfortable, I mean!!! -- to the genre. So like I said.. for guys like me they certainly should not mention RE in the announcement of a new survival-horror game.

I cant believe what I am reading!!! Shinji Mikami is called the father of survival horror??? Sorry but French game maker Frederick Raynal creator of Alone in the dark invented the genre...

It's just marketing nonsense. If anything just mentioning Resident Evil in a new survival-horror game announcement is the absolute LAST thing you should do for people who share my opinion. Apart from RE1, there entire franchise is a freaking joke. Umbrella, uber-zombies.. piss off.

If this man knows how to write horror, he has yet to show it in my book.
