WTF IS THIS?!

It got a 10/10 from eurogamer?!?!??!?!?!

Is that what the clubs are like in Miami?

They did the exact same thing last gen...they created that White Engine thing or whatever the fuck it was called for Final Fantasy, then used Unreal Engine 3 for everything else. Doesn't make much sense to me...why create your own thing just for ONE franchise?

It's stupid, what's the point of Luminous then?

Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward (9.5) AMAZING! Review

999 was incredible. Virtue's Last Reward is even better. Get into this series - now.

Word is that 007 Legends was rushed out in 9 months. They even copied parts Goldeneye 007 levels and just changed a few things here and there.

For fucks sake! They reused parts of Goldeneye level segments 1 to 1.


In the Goldfinger segment there is the engine room from Facility but instead of engines they put 4 silos on the lower floor.


I'm sure there are more examples like that, but damn that's just lazy. But then I guess they just were tasked to get a game out in time for Skyfall.

And the film studios wouldn't let them put the Skyfall level on because it might spoil the movie for people.

Does anyone here have BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger for PC or 360? At some point, I'll be decent enough at the game to play against people online, but from what I hear, not many people are playing it online now: PC gamers largely don't do fighting games, and 360 gamers have probably all moved on to subsequent iterations of BlazBlue. This is a game I don't want to play against the AI in forever.

I have had a day from hell.

I fell asleep with my contacts in, like I have sometimes done over the past 10 years that I've been wearing them.

Woke up, went to take them out....my eyes were dry and irritated....couldn't get the one out of my right eye. So I'm playing with it for an hour trying to loosen it up, wouldn't work. I've heard of people having to go to the doctor to have contacts taken out...so I thought hey, maybe I got unlucky. My regular eye doctor is out of town, so I had to go to a different one....turns out, the contact wasn't in my eye anymore but I couldn't tell because of the irritation.

So now mny eye is all irritated for nothing. I also had to pay $30 just to find that out. I come home after the exam, look in the sink thinking maybe it fell out there...nope. Now there's no way it could have fallen out in bed right? I go check my bed, and right on top of my pillow is a shriveled up contact fucking lens!!!!

IT WASN'T IN MY EYE THAT WHOLE ENTIRE FUCKING TIME!!! FUCK MY FUCKING LIFE!!!!

I have never in my life had a contact fall out in bed....normally they get so dried out that they stick to your eyeballs. WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Whoa dude, you could have taken out your cornea instead of the non-existant contact.

Didn't someone on this site love Serious Sam? I don't recall who it was, but I think I remember someone talking very highly about it... Was it Foolz?

I spoke about it on one of the podcasts.  The only one I played was an XB version of Serious Sam 2.  It was good bombastic shootery fun, but as were the games of the time, a bit long for such a simple concept.  I like it's spirit though, I'd say it lives on through Bulletstorm.

Well Fidel Castro is still alive.

Glad to hear. He was a great man, a revolutionary. His country is so well planned that it survived the embargo and if it wasn't for the embargo it would easily be one of the richest nations in the hemisphere. Castro is a genius, because once Obama lifts the embargo Cuba will show the world the success of the Communist system and the revolution will be underway.

1. Florida.

2. Electoral College.

3. Neither Democrats or Republicans will lift the embargo until Castro is dead and Cuba repudiates their actions under Castro.  Otherwise they can kiss Florida goodbye, and since it is one of the three pivotal swing states with substantional electoral college votes, it simply is not going to happen.

4. I don't know if you are joking in the rest of your comment or not.

Weird move to me that square is licensing unreal4 for their third party games. I thought they were in the midst of making this beautifull next gen engine. I remember seeing some screenshots from it and it looked gorgeous.

It must have to do with how much easier and cheaper unreal4 is making game development. I hear the engine streamlines and simplifies a lot of previously labor intensive and long development processes and coding work. I think this overall will be a huge help to the industry going forward (if it's not all over exaggeration of course)

Remember the Eidos side of Square though as well, perhaps they are smart enough to let the western side of the company choose the tools they are more familiar with rather than using the Japanese engine they are creating (and this is Square, that engine may never materialize and they need to be making next-gen games now).
