Why can't we sell T-shirts with GG's donkey pics in the VGPress store?  Or Steel's balls?

When I first saw a link to the VG press store I thought for a moment that it was a store themed after us. It would have Pachter Watch T-shirts, "We are not Nintendo bias" mugs that of course only have Nintendo characters on it, etc.

Now I want a Pachter Watch shirt

We need to make this stuff happen.

Ok, here's a possible slogan:

"Steel's balls.  A taste of Mexico."

 Not until we get an "One Fridge In Veracruz" shirt.

I picture one fridge in the middle of the city filled only with Coronas. When its open it glows like gold.

GG if Uncharted was out you wouldnt hear the end of it from me.

The multiplayer demo is out and its fantastic.

I thought everyone was missing because it was out.

I know it sounds ridiculous but the clips I saw from CVG almost made it look like Disaster Day of Crisis with faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better production values yet not as hilarious.

Will we ever get Disaster?

It better be good, Deadly Creatures failed me.

You didn't play it on an HDTV did you? :X

I've been seeing ads claiming 60Hz, 120Hz, 240Hz, and even 600Hz. Does this really make a difference on HDTV's or is it just marketing nonsense. My dad's 1080p HDTV is 60Hz, and it looks fantastic.

It does matter, if you are a fly or a ninja.

As for the impression that Disaster and Uncharted share common ground, yes. If you consider that they both have your typical everyman pulled into a number of overwhelming situations, but while Disaster seems to go over the top, pulling off unbelievable cheesiness with a charming swagger that would kill a game with higher production values, Uncharted aims for perfectly staged action pieces more rooted in reality, coupled with believable, down to earth characters and superb dialogue.  It's not as much fun as it is entertaining and awe-inspiring.

All I'm talking about in terms of similarity was that the videos I saw on CVG were all very linear set pieces that seemed to be forcing you along a path to serve the adventure. So for instance running on top of a train in Uncharted or moving inside a linear cave, or in Disaster driving a jeep down a volcanic mountain, or navigating across a beam over a rushing river. Just sort of prepostrous situations in a linear fashion, one man against all odds sort of thing.

If Disaster got rid of the lightgun shooting parts and had RE4 over the shoulder shooting it would be a very similar experience, you have this mix of platforming, shooting and whatever else crazy ass shit Disaster can come up with. I think if Disaster had super amazing graphics like Uncharted it would have been received in a far more favourable way.

Anyhow, I'm not trying to say Disaster is a 10/10 GOTY material like Uncharted 2, just that I found the linear setpiece setup in the videos and gameplay mix quite familiar, in a very pleasing way.

Damnit, talking about Disaster has got me in the mood for another playthrough.

Look at these videos, hit the HQ option.

You're suddenly thrust into a RE style rooting around for items to solve basic puzzles. Ah, breaking crates with your fists. What a guy.

And here you are in a flood hit city, running around with a nuke in a suitcase.

All the visuals are in game or in engine, the CG you see in trailers actually isn't anywhere to be seen in the game.
