It's a post rendering effect which applies saturation on the bright portions of the render; guild wars, hitman 3, and prince of persia all have this effect. Makes the worlds softer.

The only emotional connection I've ever had in computer games was about 40 minutes into one of the russian missions in Red Alert.... the power went out and I hadn't saved....
Since I like FPS games most, I'm all for more and more of them, as long as they're good.
Looking forward to F.E.A.R.:)

and what is the "bloom" effect?

Saw this at E3 next to our booth. It looked pretty nice on their big screen showing off the game trailers. Looked like a pretty detailed FPS with the 'bloom' effect that some newer games are using.

It's cool you guys allready have an opinion and all, but if you looked at some hands-on E3 previews of this game, you might have known already the game is fairly promising and even was runner-up in some E3 award categories at IGN amongst others.

and slated to be published by Eidos Interactive this fall for the PC, Xbox, and PS2
This is what has me wondering how good it will be. Less than 6 months till its released for not 1, but 3 platforms. hmmmmmmm!!!!!! Most of the "good" games that I have played usually took 2 to 4 years of development time, and I had always heard of them LOOOONG before they were out. So either they're the fastest developers around or they the most secretive bunch of people on the planet.

bullshit (bool-sheet)
noun: something spoken or written that has little to no bearing to reality and/or the truth.
If it's an Eidos PR release, you can be certain 100% of it is bullshit. lol Actually "Snowjob" came to mind. The PR spins are getting funnier by the day.
Oh, and obviously Eidos isn't aiming at the PC elitists who won't have anything to do with consoles... Nope they aren't. They're aiming at everyone with a PC.
...so I don't think they'll cry over your lost money. Yeah riiight, publishers don't care about money. If the game tanks on the market, you better bet somebody will be crying ... right to the unemployment line.
There is one good side to PC and console releases. If the game sucks ass, I'm only out $6 on a console rental.

Hammy ham lol. It was a good game and yeah I tend to agree - it seems to be second nature for people to beat down newcomers to the genre.

I love all this criticism about a game none of you know anything about. We know that, from the press release, it looks to be ripping off half the games that are coming out which actually are being original.
Yeah, it could be good. I'm just saying that it's lame that people are already ripping off the physics gun.

I love all this criticism about a game none of you know anything about. It's so rampant at this place (on the whole internet really). As soon as a new game is announced everyone pounces with the same old lines: PFFT! OLD! UNORIGINAL! RIP-OFF! LAME! CONSOLES SUCK (an old favourite)!
Think about all the criticisms that would have been leveled at Far Cry: yet another shooter, set on a deserted island, with some sort of scientific experiment that made a whole bunch of monsters. It's as hammy as a ham could possibly ham, but it was a good game.
Oh, and obviously Eidos isn't aiming at the PC elitists who won't have anything to do with consoles, so I don't think they'll cry over your lost money.

Do IGN reporters not even have the time for a quick proof read? - On another note this game seems half-baked even in the press release and the sight of the phrase 'riot wall' trademarked sends cold shivers down my spine.

I wouldn't blame piracy at all. Hell, piracy exists in every single console to date--though some more than others.
Simply put, PC games do generate enough revenue. It is much easier to create a game that works on all systems, tweaking it on the system with the most potential sales, and porting it across the board. I mean, you make one game and make it available to all.
Few people have top of the line PCs because they do not need them. The gaming industry today surpasses the movie industry, not because of PC game sales, but because of the millions of consoles sold at affordable prices (not $2500 systems that are only good for 2-3 years). I'm just thankful developers port shit over to the PC to begin with.
But I'm most thankful for the developers who create the top of the line games, who leave consoles deal with their limitations on their own, companies like Valve and id software.

not sure i'd blame piracy, though the publishers will, as xbox / ps2 etc all get pirated too.. biggest prob atm is useless PC anti-piracy programs cutting heavilly into the publishers profit margins for 0 gain :p
but all this has been said by many, many times..
interesting this games got lots of PR, even won Tom's best of show for FPS, and no shots or clips anywhere....

Agree with #4.
When I read special play modes for consoles and not for PC, then I know they are making it for consoles and the PC users will get whatever half baked port they decide to make. If companies would only realize the potential of PCs, we would have more 'epic' games instead of half-assed conversions of great console games to mediocre PC games.
I guess that's what us diehard PC gamers get with all of the piracy today.
