I kinda like ReadyAtDawn a lot even though they're usually just handed side projects or remakes etc

Yeah they do a nice job on whatever they work with.

Cause you're a filthy heathen.

For some reason this pic reminded me of this place. Obviously the monkey is Iga, but who is the dog then? Vader?

I guess, but GOW3 didn't really do anything different either. I thought there was some good stuff in Chains.

Ghost Of Sparta is much better though, have you played it? The pacing of gameplay and the graphics are a huge step up. It looks better than the PS2 games in HD, unlike Chains. Awesome effects and whatnot in every scene.

GoW3 combat system was a big improvement with the quick dashing boots and weapon switching combos. Plus the setpieces were beyond incredible.

No I have not played GoS but I heard that one is good.

The only thing I can agree on in that article about games and porn, is that yes it is much easier jerking off to porn than dealing with a relationship...obviously. But does anyone really think smacking it to ANYONE'S pics online is anywhere near as good as actually having real life sex? Like this is going to make somebody say "yeah you know I'm all set going out and getting some real vagina tonight. Just gonna sit home and have an amazing jack off fest!"? Please...

Well...maybe Steel would.

Looks good.

Everyone is saying get PSN+ before E3, they say you better get it.

By the way, if you don't have a PS+ subscription, now is the time to get one. For real. Just get 3 months if you aren't sure. Trust me.Sterling McGarvey

If there's enough warnings before E3 to get onboard something, consider it. ‪#PSPlus‬

Shane Batteheusen said so as well. Hmmm...

RUMOR: Wii U specs, price and release date 'leak'

From a forum post (translated from Italian) on a Nintendo fan site, from a user claiming to be a Ubisoft Milan developer

Graphics card: Radeon HD 6770

RAM: 2Gb, with 560 (more?) dedicated to running the operating system.

Support for two of the system's tablet controllers

The controller's triggers are digital rather than analogue.

The new 'button' on the controller relates to a new version of the Wii Vitality Sensor technology.

Achievements supported.

The dashboard is customisable.
The console is currently running Epic's newly revealed Unreal Engine 4.

Valve is working on a digital distribution system for the console, as well as a port of Portal 2.

EA and Crytek are also very much involved.

The system is due for launch on November the 23rd, for between $350 and $450. Price not entirely set yet.

This is the second time this Valve rumour has popped up.

According to the developer, the Nintendo console will launch on November 23, 2012 (worldwide?) and cost somewhere between $350 and $450 USD -- the price still isn't set in stone. The GPU of choice will be AMD's Radeon HD 6770 which will support not only DirectX 11, but Epic's Unreal Engine 4.


As for other specs, the rumor dump claims the console will sport 2 GB of RAM, 560 MB of which will be dedicated to the console's operating system. The Wii U's user interface will be customizable whereas the console itself will come packed with pre-installed software. It will also support touch-screen controllers.


On the Ubisoft front, slated games include Rayman Legends, The Avengers, Assassin's Creed 3 (which will run at 60fps at 1080p, compared to 720p on PS3 and Xbox 360) and Just Dance 4. Killer Freaks from Outer Space is set to arrive weeks after launch.

The Ubisoft developer also states that Crytek and Electronic Arts are working on Wii U products -- this factor is old news. Valve, on the other hand, is also reportedly bringing its Steam service to the new console in addition to ports of both Portal games. Achievements will be supported by the console as well.


Now here's an interesting tidbit: multiple versions of the Wii U are currently in the hands of developers. Does this mean Nintendo will offer tiered models? This seems unlikely given the company's past releases. The note seems to indicate that Nintendo may have provided multiple configurations to see what developers liked best while keeping the final cost to consumers reasonable.


Again, take all of this with a grain of salt. The Unreal Engine 4 report seems a little far-fetched given that it's finally able to run on a single Nvidia Kepler GPU -- unless Epic is offering a modified version of UE4 capable of running on Nintendo's hardware, that is. Rumor has it that Nintendo "tweaked" the console so that it could run Epic's latest engine. The company seemingly doesn't want to disappoint with this console, so UE4 could be a possibility.
