Shieeeeet. After pouring some 60 hours or so into Mount and Blade Warband, I think I'm ready to pick up again my ME2 paragon playthrough. Finally bought all ME2 DLC so my playthrough will be complete, and also picked up ME3 with a points card, so I'm set to start the final game right after I beat the second.

Well, yeah! A posing picture where there is something left to the imagination or is at least artfully done is ALWAYS better than a "Hey! Check this out!" pic...

Thought so.

STEEL PENIS BALLS go and argue with Vader about ME on skype pls.

what? When?

Dunno if I'll make it, still too early around here and my kids are still around the computer.

Hmmmm....

So, I guess we can assume that games running on engines like Unreal can be ported to the Wii U quite easily?

Again, yes. Hardware like the Wii and PS3 make it hard to port to them because their hardware is either outdated/non-flexible and/or exotic. The more “power” parts of a game are the hardest to port. This is why, particularly certain engines and ports, all the power in the PS3 CPU couldn’t save games from running without problems once ported from the 360, because that power was divided and exotic and needed lots of work to make the Cell CPU show it’s superior power in spite of the weaker GPU that Sony chose. It’s clear that Nintendo intends to remove obstacles involved with porting from current and future consoles.

Played this last week:

Parrappa the Rappa (On my new 50 incher -- looks awesome up-rezzed by PS3).

Jet Set Radio Future (Looks awesome too, component cables through original XBOX):

Mass Effect 2, Hot Shots Golf FORE! and Final Fantasy 7.

EDIT:

I find this sad:

"Metroid developers make Metal Gear solid HD Collection for Vita 12.03.12 -

Vita version of Metal Gear solid made not only by Bluepoint Games, but also with Armature studio. That communicates Konami on the official website. The Armature studio is in Texas, USA, and staffed by former coworkers of the Retro studios 2008 was based: Marks of Pacini, Todd Kellar and Jack Matthews who were senior designers on the Metroid Prime series and now  support Bluepoint Games."

So those guys left one of the best developers out there to go co-port other people's classics on handhelds? That IS fucking sad....smart move guys.

They were suppossed to be forming game plans for EA, like an elite planning and design think tank who then gets other people to make the games. Now they are porting old PS2 games to a handheld in support of another company. Those 3 were lead designer, lead artist, lead programmer types. I wish they had stayed with Retro.
