[QUOTE="Diophage"] The Constitution

"But you see you see we're at war with terror so until we beat terror that means indefinite state of emergency so the constitution doesn't apply anymore", "what's that? how can you beat something that doesn't physically exist? sorry that's secret but we'll be sure to tell you when we do" "PS we're detaining you without charge until we beat terror, we'll put your skeleton on trial when it's over" "why? well that's secret too"

Imagine 5 people at a table, 4 people all brought in a few ingredients each and they all worked as a team to baked a pie and each got 1 small piece. 1 other guy brought ALL the ingredients he had been saving up, and baked his own pie. After all he knew he would want more than a piece so it only made sense to provide all the ingredients and do all the work himself. The 4 ate their small pieces and still hungry and looked over to the man happily eating his own pie, stomachs growling.

Now how unfair is that? This dude gets his own pie and those other 4 only got one small piece each? I'm outraged!

This would only apply to the situation at hand if the man with the whole pie had an unimaginable ammount of pie ingredients enough to supply the world many times over and controled the means of production for the ingredients so the others bought it off him originally at unaffordable rates and was giving lots of ingredients to the pie overseers to insure the status quo.

This talk of increasing minimum wager = bad, don't tax the rich is hillarious for people observing (if you need an explanation you're too far gone already), you guys are screwed six ways to sunday if the general public is anything like this thread.

It's had 2 patches since that release and it's managed to double it's technical playability with just those. US release is next month and there's lots more patches planned between then and now so they were probably hoping that it wouldn't be reviewed until that release.

I've had 6 red ringed 360 but since it was always free to fix it I could just keep replacing it and I repaired one myself. My PC has only failed completly once, twice if you count the time I burnt it out accidently :P .

I'd have enjoyed the graphics in the video more if there weren't giant blocks of text infront of it half the time!

While a mouse will still give you more precision than a wiimote, the wiimote is a far cry better than a thumb joystick for aiming that's for sure. Ofcourse playing a platformer/fighting/flying game with a keyboard and mouse can be an exercise in futility so having a dual analogue lying around comes in handy.

You could define it by graphics adaptors:

CGA -> EGA -> VGA -> SVGA ->Early 3d acellerators like glide ->Late 3d acellerators like opengl/DirectX7-11

[QUOTE="Flanker15"]

What happened game devs, it used to be about the games?

Jesus_on_fire

It has never been about games, its always been about money

I mean it used to be different, devs would be breaking new ground all the time experimenting and being adventurous. Now they'll only put things in that are "safe" its so expensive to dev now that it has to be profit driven. There were copy cat games always trying to jump onto the fps craze in the 90s and such but there were bags of new ips and new genres popping up too, today only the copiers remain. Just look what happened to no more heroes, publisher thought it was too adventurous and new that they had to go back their safe ips after only 2 games.
