Video cards getting closer to true cinema like graphics while, for a large part, games have long since hit a brick wall.

13.6 seems to have fixed my phones horrendous battery drain.

The graphics aren't overdone like every developer seems they have to be since graphic cards are getting towards 200 billion transistors. The backround is at least a subdued color, I can't stand insane colors in a game just because they can be, are obligated to be. I'm not a big fan of speeded up gameplay either. Games today have everyone seemingly playing on crack as far as movement goes. That's why some games are getting remastered. It's like, fps games today have to over jazz to justify your buying the latest video card every 2 years. That's now how it has to be, unfortunately. Onward and upward to a ridiculous degree. I'm glad to have lived and played during the golden years of PC games, before it hit a wall and graphics became king.

The co-op was cool way back when. Single player not so much for me these days. It's still a one trick pony of a game, but way back it was revolutionary to have that many enemies coming at ya. I didn't like the setting in SS3. Middle eastern settings as if that was mandatory. I contributed in a small way as others did on SS1. Me (Innova) and others got end game listing credits.

I had no "passion" for Crysis as their blog refers to. Heh (I did before it was released, bought a new system for it). The game had controversy on the day it was released. Now it has more, 13 years later.

Many like me bought a new PC around the game's hype before the release only to find our rigs couldn't run it at the highest settings. To tell you the truth, I was underwhelmed by the game and have few if any fond memories of it. I do however remember how annoying it was at times. Like the part along side a river bank with trees. It seems every tree had an unseen enemy solider taking a leak behind it only to suddenly step out from behind and start firing at you. This continued all the way down the river's banks. Annoyed the hell outta me.

Not sure what a remaster will do for Battlefield 3. For what it was, it was fine, graphics wise. What can they possibly do? C&C needed a remaster. BF3? HA! Will a netcode and hit detection upgrade wow me? No...it was pretty ok and still is. This looks like EA going for a cash grab on the heels of C&C getting a lot of favorable reviews. After BF2, I lost interest. BF2 should be getting the remaster, not BF3.

A rehash for the sake of rehashing. Gee, what new can we implement for those who we can string along? Stay tuned, you faithful who are easy to please are no doubt in anticipation of being jazzed. Don't forget to have to buy the latest CPU and Video card as technological visual advancements is all games like this (who have run out or ideas) can do. That is, make it more visually lifelike and therefore a must have. A title that just keeps reeling in buyers.

With a new game being released every hour of every day, I feel less than jazzed about the dozens of games being released daily.

For a remaster, I assume the single player AI will get an upgrade. Why? Because I was able to wear out the AI. Enemy Nod tanks just kept get getting produced and bumping into each other near the end. AI was nothing compared to today. Tiberian single player just threw more arbitrary AI enemy occurrences outta nowhere. The AI was what it was. Primitive by today's standards.

90% of streamed shows are crap. So, there's that. Some stick to it like those who make it a point not to miss their daily soap opera fix.

From a hater of modern FPS's with their hand holding console annoyances to the overly bright color pallets to the constant platform jumping, I wonder if any FPS game from now on will hold back all the modern advancements in video cards and programming and make an FPS game that doesn't look as if you took too much niacin before going to sleep and having a wild dream side effect, lol. Time marches on so, I guess not. These new technologically enhanced games are obligated to saturate each frame as well make you go buy the latest video card. It's almost as if they are obligated to overdo it only because the latest "immersion" advancements allow for it. Doing anything less would underutilize what you pay $59.00 a game for and $375 every two years for the latest card. So be it, I guess.

I'll tell you what...a lot of previously less populated online games are getting more action than before, thanks to the mandate to stay indoors.

San Diego County population. 1.42 million. Number of confirmed cases, 113 so far. Everyone staying home, hand sanitizers used so much it's sold out. Do the math. So far where I live, that's a small percentage. While it may increase, I don't see it anywhere near California's governor stating 58% will get the virus here, even tho this virus spreads 3 times faster than the regular flu.

Too expensive to have developed this game for both VR AND PC? How much were they paid by VR developers to make it VR exclusive?

What does this do to older multiplayer games like the Battlefield series which have hosted servers with admins present to kick TK'ers and the such?

Not having bought a new game in years, just when is it time to update? No doubt if something goes wrong. Any reason to if all is ok? Benefits with windows 10, etc.? Must be at least 5 years now since I last updated.

"You Only Live Twice" should have been on that list.

I assume to replicate the Atari experience they'll want to have appliances hooked up to AC/DC transformers that need replacing after a few days. If you left the ac/dc converter plugged in, it would burn it out within days. Anyone remember that happening?

Getting a bit tired of "brilliantly colored worlds."
