He is right, Gabe is a bad representative for Valve and even Valve in general are acting like gods or something towards the PS3, this attitude will bite them in the ass someday and that day has come, look at how detailed RE5, KZ 2, MGS4, Uncharted, Resistance, COD4 and WAW...etc are compared to what Valve have developed for this gen, they made a poor ass port for the PS3, decent looking games for the 360 and they talk like they are the king in graphics and development while a guy like Cliffy B easily surpassed them in quality games.

Valve are gods in this industry IMO. I mean, they are one of the few developers I can buy a game from without a demo because I know it will be of a high standard.

Most of those games you've mentioned have settled for polished game play - which I'm sure they do quite well, COD4 in particular is an excellent game. But what Valve have provided for this industry is innovation. Not just for their games - HL2, L4D, Portal in particular - but also revolutionised the distribution of games through Steam.

When HL2 first came out it was easily the best looking game on the market and the engine still holds up quite well now.

Please don't even mention Cliffy. Its very easy by their standards to design a generic shooter and polish it to perfection, rather than to take risks with narrative techniques and provide innovation through physics puzzles or co-operative game play.

[QUOTE="Eyezonmii"][QUOTE="Huff"]Not to jump into the fire, but I didn't like it as much as I thought I would after reading the reviews. I'm not saying its bad, I'm just not blown away by it.patrickjw333

the game is great it has great graphics ( although a bit blurry maybe its just the demo ) and the gameplay is very realistic.

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]HipHopGamer just wants to become relevant, but he never will. Gabe is successful at what he does, so until HipHopster can emulate his success with worthy journalism, the HippyHoppyHomie needs to shut the trap.67gt500

He has a point though. Gabe Newell was the one who started it all, when he came out and frankly trashed the PS3, all because it wasn't a PC in a box like the 360 and easy to port games over to. Not that the port overs were exactly brilliant efforts anyway. The Orange Box had a framerate limited at 30fps, whilst the net code for TF2 on 360 was pathetic, they didn't even bother to code for a P2P network, nor did they bother to put in dedicated servers. Shoddy job by Valve, and that's before we come to the lame ass PS3 port over. And even though L4D on 360 has been a lot better the support that Valve promised hasn't been there, yet anyway.

The man has a point. Rather than trash talk a system, either don't develop for it, or put in the effort.

[QUOTE="-Ninja_Dog-"][QUOTE="Eyezonmii"] Why, just because there opinion differs from yours? they think it looks that good....so no fantasy world for them, just there individual tastes and preferences. The game is scoring very high across the board....so much for sub par, huh? Huff

I really wanted it to be good. don't get me wrong.I just feel the reviewers aren't being very honest about their reviews.

So what the hell is RE5 suppose to be? A Survival Horror game or TPS? Because that demo sure as hell wasn't scary and the controls were too damn clunky to be considered a TPS.

Capcom must be confused as well.

The original RE scared the poop out of me, I really hope this ones scary because I found RE4 to be weaksauce.

Too bad its pretty much the truth, must be fun livin' in fantasy land.

Well fine.But it's obvious their living in a fantasy world too.

[QUOTE="munu9"][QUOTE="-Ninja_Dog-"]

I played it a couple of times and the guns sound weak, not good for a shooter. The graphics are decent but nothing that couldn't be done on 360.

The PS3 control contributes to the weak feeling of the guns alot.

Another subpar game for the PS3.
