The line about this being a love letter to hardware manufacturers and noting the DX11 feature set makes me think this was sponsored by nVidia or AMD. Perhaps they were exploring some deal with Epic to make a premier PC game that would make people buy new video cards, but then it fell through, and we just ended up…

You're special because you have a contrary opinion about a popular band!

The actual mesh changes are basic. Mostly you're essentially just watching a video of the actor's face "projected" onto a relatively featureless and low poly head mesh. All of the shadows, creases, and other details are not geometry but rather from the streaming textures. The heads mesh don't even have a defined…

If your interest as a consumer is to continue playing the kind of high cost, high production value games that big publishers make possible, then the company's interest is related to your interest.

Nicely done.

I'm a 2010 VW GTI owner and I was strongly considering a Focus ST for my new car in a year or two. Went to a car show the other day, sat in one, and every inkling of desire I had for the car was obliterated. The interior is awful and would be far too great a step down from my GTI to live with on a daily basis. It…

The combat boils down to shoot and enemy with one gun (i.e. the flashflight) then shoot them with another (an actual gun). It's the same as any over the shoulder shooter except the enemies all have two health bars. I find that repetitive and not particularly novel.

Personally I had very little fun with the game. The combat has slow, non-cancelable animations that lead to death and become annoying and in general the shooting is repetitive and boring. And when you have combat that's repetitive to begin with, putting infinite spawning enemies in it is about the worst thing you…

Yes it has as much right to exist as any bad, tasteless product. This doesn't mean you can't or don't call it out for being bad and tasteless.

You seem to have a warped sense of what adulthood means. Being an adult does not mean that you aren't offended by anything or that you don't find tasteless shit to be tasteless. Quite the opposite in fact - you should be intelligent and affluent enough to recognize when something is an ugly piece of junk without…

Still has leaf springs?! Well Jeremy Clarkson will still have something to make fun of then.

Who's to say they couldn't run real DirectX through a compatibility layer, just like Wine does - only better. That said, I don't *really* think they have anyone working on that.

Nissan model names are wildly different depending on the region. The car you know as the 240SX was indeed called the 200SX in Europe. Its "real" name, that being the Japanese one, is the Silvia. They changed the name for the US and EU for obvious reasons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Silvia

Eek, proportions look weird to me. Nothing nearly as bad as the Z3 Clownshoe, but weird nonetheless

Unless this thing will play Windows games via emulation/translation perfectly - and I mean perfectly, no lose in performance compared to a native Win system on same hardware - I can't see them using Linux. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if Valve has a team of crack engineers working on exactly that - making…

Whoever said that was wearing sugar coated nostalgia goggles. The first game was more unique in it's time, and so is remembered fondly by people who haven't touched it in over 10 years, but even at that time it was still not the best to play. By modern standards, it's bloody awful - I know because I'm a person that…

A lot of the naysayers don't realize that game's community is different now than it was on release. There are a lot of Journey veterans that spoil the experience for new players by leading them around by the nose, removing the exploration and discovery aspect.

The aforementioned crazy doors, also decent size reference - it's not big, hence the 2.0t recommendation.

Ford Evos. I mean yeah, styling is Aston Martin wannabe that went on to inspire the Fusion, but who cares when it looks that good. Stick the Focus ST's 2.0 turbo in it, keep the crazy doors (would never happen, but I can dream) and you have a Ford sports car for those of us the Mustang would never appeal to.
