where is pc gaming going?

i'm surely not the only one who's noticed the trend, the pc developers are leaving pc and embracing consoles.

and i'm all for consoles i prefer them over pc myself, but as someone trying to get a gig in the video games industry, this is a bit of a problem.

you get epic, claiming unreall III has more pirated cd keys running the game than they have legitimate ones. games like stalker clear skies about to release and almost no-one knows anything about it. crysis, possibly the most awe inspiring real time art i've ever seen, ignored on shelves.

so lets start with unreall III

it's not a new game, like game revolutions x360 review says, it's the same game it was in ...

This Is Not About Games

I don't sleep a whole lot. Sleeping in is a nice option whenever its possible, but regardless of what time I wake up, my head rarely hits the pillow before 4am. Luckily, the cable and satellite companies have done us all a public service by creating the CSPAN channels.

Thanks to this benevolent action, I can watch the Washington Journal every morning and hear the ignorance of America straight from the horse's slack jawed mouth. For each news story discussed on the Washington Journal, droves of viewer phone calls are taken and broadcast for all to hear, no matter how ridiculous or asinine they may be. Usually, it's good for a few laughs. I couldn't muster up any chuckles on my last viewing, though.

Rather than taking calls ...

Nope, Definitely Needs More Human

As the Internet bides its time, waiting for foolish folks with fame to inspect the glowing dangling bobble tethered just in front of its gaping maw, Dennis Dyack's magnum opus hits the shelves with an unwavering will to rewrite the way we think.

Did it happen yet?

Shit. Looks like that didn't quite pan out like Dyack and I thought. In fact, Too Human, Dyack's cyber-Norse action RPG, is receiving more feigned praise than the winner of NBC's The Biggest Loser. Running the gammut of scores from "D to "C+," Too Human is proving that anyone can do nothing well.

Jokes aside, I'm going to take this opportunity to get nice and smug. Mmmmmm. You like that, Earth? You diggn' ...

The future of game media

Gaming's come a long way in every way imaginable, but I'm here to talk about one in particular: capacity. Back in the days of the C64 (that's Commodore 64 bits) for you whipper snappers) entire games were held on cassette tapes. NES cartridges varied in capacity but generally capped at about 4MB... that's MEGAbytes, about a song's worth of data. We've gone through the SNES and Mega Drive and even as late as the N64 cartridges were still being used. The original PlayStation was the first successful venture into the optical media format for games and increased the max capacity to a whopping (for back then) 700 odd megabytes and when DVDs began being used in the PS2 and Xbox systems the bar was raised yet further to 4.7GB (ahh, back in familiar territory now). ...

A Questionable Ratings system.

As most Australians are aware the R18+ classification held by the OFLC (Office of Film and Literature Classification) does not carry over to classifying games submitted to the classification organization, the most notable crusader to keep OUT a R18+ rating being the one, the only Michael Atkinson (South Australian Attorney-General). Spouting classic gems like:

“I do not want children to be able to get their hands on R18+ games easily. I understand that the lack of an R18+ classification denies some adults the chance to play some games, however, the need to keep potentially harmful material away from children is far more important...”

You can\'t ignore problems forever

Nintendo is a living double edge sword; it doesn't listen to its fans since Nintendo actually knows what they are doing for their market but at the same time, since they have become so successful with the Wii, they pretty much are wearing earplugs when it comes to fans complaining about stuff. I'm not here to complain about the Wii's low memory storage or how its graphics only go to 480p. No, I'm going to talk about something more serious. Hacking/cheating.

While Action Replay is pretty much useless on the Wii thanks to firmware updates, there has been reports of some program that is allowing people to use modified codes in their games which is pretty much equal to that of a gameshark. Mario Kart Wii has been under attack ...

It\'s Alright:Hang In There!

From playing on Xbox live each and every day, i came to found out that many people damage their own console or controllers by getting repeatly slaughtered or losing extremely bad in a game.

Most people have a tendacy of flipping out over the most outrageous happenings on Xbox Live. I have experience many, so i'm going to share a couple with you that somehow made me laugh at the person playing

Gears of War Battle: When playing Gears of War on the map Canals, many people try to go to the sniper point first. Well, as i at the sniper point i spotted one person. I then aim carefully like i do and BOOM!! go their head, but there was another person left that i didn't realize. As it turns out i shot two people's heads off in one shot ...

Press Your Luck

So basically after i saw the midnight launches for Halo 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Madden 09 etc. That many gamers are actually buying games to continue a series of that franchise rather than trying to look a for a new game in hopes of liking it.

It really makes me mad when gamers will criticize a game that they haven't even play, I know for a fact that many people have made rude and cruel statements toward some of my reviews for games such as Kingom Hearts II. I never played the game but, i was always watching my friends and relatives playing it. From what i saw i made a review of what i found to be a terrible game. I then played it a month later realizing my mistake.

So now instead of buying a game people have talked about. I ...

Lost my Touch

After three weeks of barely playing Rock Band, I finally got back on it. Mainly because my guitar is finally in working order again, a month ago the fret button wouldn't work at all, making me fail some easy songs both off and online (so to everyone I have played with where I failed, sorry.)

So after learning that no matter how coordinated I can become I will always suck at the drums (although I am now on medium difficulty, which is good.) I put the game away for a bit until I had time to fix it.

After operating on the guitar and fixing it finally, I downloaded todays pack and began playing, and failed all six songs downloadable today. ALL SIX. Granted, thee of them were level 9 I believe, but still, this is unprecedented because I have ...

The Rise of Toy-based Games

A little revolution is happening in the world of toyland. Slowly but surely, the physical act of play is becoming digitized. Due to the decrease of traditional toy sales and the meteoric rise of online games, toy makers are launching toys that are linked to online games and virtual worlds. The market for toy based games is rapidly growing, leading many companies such as Mattel and Hasbro to take notice.

Hi

Hi Everyone

I can only type with one hand right now.

Okay, here's the story.
Here is the disease first, and then I'll tell you the symptom.

I was hanging out on the terrace of a restaurant, not eating anything or doing much other than staring out into the street and wondering how long it would take before the cars ever stopped blurring by. There was a moment where I thought about how when I was younger, I would look inside of the cars, but now I just watched the car itself without any interest in who was making it go so fast and where they were headed. Eventually though, I guesstimated there would have to be some kind of apocalyptic event before that would happen, so I gave up and starting observing the morphing ...

Inform Me Informatively, Citizens!

How many people nowadays read without provocation from external sources of authority?
I honestly have no clue, it seems like it's becoming a phenomenon when anyone truly does so. Otherwise it seems as though words are only delved into entirely without free will, whether it's because someone with close social power recommends it, or if it's demanded by academic figures.

Oh well, minds die before the bodies go, and where it stops, I'm pretty sure I know.

That Very Last Word

If you were being held, execution style, with a nuclear device up your backside and a man ready to press it once you've given your last word in life... What would you say? What would that word be?

My word would have to be, "Wait?"

A Serious Conundrum (And a Serious Answer to Myself)

Alright, this has been plaguing my besodden mind for at least seven minutes now, and it is plunderous torture, so I need outside vision to inform my ultimate opinion...
Alright, here it is...
If you were a zombie, do you think you would prefer dark meat, or light?

Seriously, us thinking humans must know these things!

No, wait, an honest mistake.

Zombies wouldn't need to eat in reality, the necrotic state of their trachea all the way down to the bottom of their bowels would soon reveal that processing any kind of hard substance would be unfatal to the undead.

I got a Wii

On Thursday it start off as a great day then the the storm come in from the lake and my dad's was golf will as boss in the am by that I wait at 11 or 10 am.

Defence of the Gamers

"I HH8 JACK THSOMSPoN!"

"HE DONT NO WUT HES ON ABOUT!"

"ITZ A LOAD OF ****!"

Following the August 4 murder of a cab driver in Thailand in which the assailant claimed he was trying to recreate a scene from Grand Theft Auto IV, Thai authorities first "urged" retailers to pull the game off their shelves before taking the entirely unsurprising step of banning it outright. "The police are empowered to immediately arrest shopkeepers if they find any GTA games on sale," said police spokesman Ruangsak Jaritake. "GTA is banned mainly because of its obscene content - under the criminal law article 287 that ...

PSP vs Hackers

Since the PSP was launched here in Europe, I was a proud owner of Sony's porable gamingconsole. But if you look now, many years later, I just can't keep finding games for this console. Why ? 'Cause there aren't that much ! After all these years there should be tons of games, but the reality is far more shocking... Myself, i blame all those people with their costum firmware, just to be able to download their games, instead of buying them... Publishers and developers just don't see the point in creating/publishing new games, 'cause people just download their games... Why can't people see that they are stealing other people's stuff ? Nowadays I'm wondering if there are any people who don't download their games ? No matter what, I'll ...

69 reasons why it\'s good to be a lesbian

I'm bored, I have a little green and blue button in my browser window with SU written across it. For those of you in the know you'll understand I'm talking about the magical internet site called StumbleUpon. This website gathers information on you (that you give it voluntarily) and every time you press the little button given to you via download you're directed to a 'random' website. The site isn't entirely random because it's based on your Stumbling habits and interests. Now, I can't remember what my selected interests are but I'm pretty sure they don't include lesbianism (it's not that kind of site and I sure as hell don't want to read about a bunch of psychotic feminists cutting off penises of guys who looked down ...

The screwing is the reward

A young man graduated from the University of Arkansas with a degree in
journalism. His first assignment for the newspaper that hired him was
to write a human-interest story. Being from Arkansas, he went back into the country to do his research. He went to an old farmer's house way back in the hills, introduced himself and proceeded to explain to him why he was there.

The young man asked, "What's the most exciting thing that ever happened around here?"

The farmer thought for a minute and said, "One time one of my
neighbor's sheep got lost. We formed a posse and found it. Then we all screwed ...

Super Nintendo

Years ago when gaming was still considered to be coming of age, the super nintendo emerged. Bringing fresh new graphics, vibrant sounds, many characters that will never be forgotten. My quest however is not concerning to those well known characters, instead on those least heard of. I am looking for names and descriptions of those titles that have not received the praise they should have. On my route to collecting old video games, I have currently amassed over 100 well known titles, such as Aero Fighters, FFII and III, Mario RPG, and many more, some of which are in like new condition complete in box. I'm looking now for the good playing games that might still have some hidden value. Any kind of help would be ...

Why so serious? An open letter to the Bat

(spoilers)

Wanted: Life

Like any other person here on GR, I like games. I like them a lot. Ever since I crawled behind the personal computer my uncle had, I was hooked.

One of my earliest memories of gaming consists of playing Leisure Suit Larry: In the Land of the Lounge Lizzards. I remember loving every minute of it, using it's parser interface. My favorite moment was going to the bathroom in Lefty's bar, trying to flush the toilet and accidentally drown myself because the damn toilet broke.

That was about all the gameply I understood at the time. The year was 1987, and I was just four years old. I think the fact I always drowned in the bathroom was just the save my young soul needed. I think that was just about it in Leisure Suit Larry, me ...

Acheivement Unlocked: Last Forum Post

I'm excited i finally got to have this secret achievement. I never actually earned acheivements in my life until just recently.

I was of course on GR forums, and i enter the General Gaming forum. I then saw a topic that said Video game. so of course i clicked on it. As i entered i was wondering to myself what's inside my forum. I then realized i didn't have to think that long since i know i have high speed internet with Comcast and the forum was already at my face

I looked to see what is was about. I was very disappointed in what is saw. It was one of those damn wanting to know what is your favorite video game topic. O m G those make me angry i see thousands of those ...
