Its development cycle is gonna span 3 console generations.

Yep. I knew the whole project sounded absurd when it was first announced. It was also entirely absurd to start developing a first person shooter component way way too early when the space game portion didn’t look anything like a game or anything like one, beyond a tech demo. From what I can remember! I forgot the…

They still call it Flamme Rouge today.

It was.

hilariously, during the trailer they said, “this is running real time!” only later did we find out they hadn’t picked an engine yet.... so what does it matter if it was running real time!? lol

I believe this is why Alex Vlachos of Valve said, ‘you should not be using reprojection to hit framerate’ that it should only be used as a fallback when there are performance problems.

screw 4k! this is for VR baby!

Yo, Palmer Luckey said in his AMA that “Oculus Exclusive” doesn’t mean they won’t *allow* a game to run on other HMDs, it just means that you have to buy the game through their store. So, it basically just depends on whether a dev adds support for their game for other HMDs. If a dev doesn’t add support, which I still…

My order finally went through about 20 minutes after preorders opened up (I was prevented in the first few minutes due to their site being overwhelmed and processing errors). Haven’t heard anything except it’s being processed.

I think the lesson here for VR forcasts, and just gaming in general, everyone needs to take analyst forecasts much less seriously.

The Stalingrad mission in Call of Duty came in the last 1/3rd of the game for me, it wasn’t he opening. I can’t remember, but wasn’t it random which campaign players started on? Or could you choose which campaign you started with? My experience was: American 1st, British 2nd, Russian 3rd. I know Russia was the last…

Probably about 10 years ago, I had a ATI Radeon card, and the official drivers had a setting buried in the menus somewhere where you could change a screen shader or something to change the look of games... One of the options was rendering everything in ASCII text.

Yep,

If milk gives you diarrhea, don’t drink it. If not, have at it. It’s idiotic to tell people a certain kind of food or drink is only for kids.

In-N-Out: best burgers, fries and shake anywhere.

I bought a TV that I didn’t *need* that’s almost too big for my room, Samsung 48 inch. But hey, it’s the first time I actually spent any money on Black Friday ever. So there’s that. Plus, I figure I wanted a 40 inch, but that was sold out, and the non-sale price for 40 inch is the same or higher than what I paid for…

The Facebook link said something about liking the Jedi knight II manual. I probably have it stashed away somewhere, along with the game box. Never threw them away.

“As eSports reaches a tipping point of mainstream acceptance”

Yeah, definitely, there will probably always be desktop PCs and consoles, and no matter what, you’ll always be able to fit more circuits in a bigger box than a tiny phone... unless someone someday actually figures out lag-free videogame streaming. But that’s not going to happen any time soon. And people will always…

It’s not going to be $200, and it’s not going to be $300. Most likely. You’re fooling yourself if you think it won’t sell at $350 or $400. Go to a skate park & look at how many teens have GoPro cameras... or have any modern console... Their parents bought them those things, and there are sure as hell a lot of people…
