Out of appreciation for id’s previous games and interest in the setting, I preordered Rage. When it finally came out, it ran terribly in my machine, which could play pretty much every other game without a hitch. Framerate was bad, but worse still was the loading of textures, popping in from existance from mushy…

Eh. Racing is clearly #1. It’s probably the only one you can simulate actually doing while sitting down. A good FFB wheel, some buttkickers, VR, you’re pretty much halfway to the real thing.

omg. Concerning Hobbits. some dust in my eye here.

and Meet the Flintstones! cool.

Yea... Rolling Thunder, Pac Man, Ghostbusters on the NES when I was really little. Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Kart, Chrono Trigger on the SNES. Duke Nukem 3D and other build engine games, Geoff Crammond’s Grand Prix 2 on the PC in my early teens.

tbh, I was paying so much attention to the face that I didn’t even notice it.

Bye Patrick! Was a lot of fun following your articles. You’ll forevermore be the Mario Maker reporter of these lands. Wish you the best in your future endeavors!

yea, I got that as well. weirded me out.

Well, it does say “section score” rather than gap, so 177 might not be seconds.

Other than that, yea, the crappiness of the mockup was definitely the first thing I noticed.

And I imagine a few thousands of them were incinerated when fireworks went off all ‘round (and round and round again) the stadium’s roof after the match, too.

Actually, if the AI identifies itself as “female”, I don’t think it would oppose having a sexy body. Lots of human transexuals do go for the sexy look; I suppose looking pretty and powerful and flaunting the characteristics of the gender they identify with probably feels good and reassuring.

Plus, fan service. Don’t…

Is it a gyroscope or an armillary sphere, tho??

Oh crap. Never a good sign. The last thing the franchise needs is another bad movie to add to the list. Really, it's such a simple concept, with so much potential, it's mind-boggling how they keep screwing it up.

Yea, how come we haven’t got a reboot of this, yet? Highlander was great, Highlander 3 was OK, the series was nice, the rest was rubbish. Is is the inconsistency that keeps the industry away from the IP?

I think we've also landed on an asteroi or two..?

Great stuff. Smart use of robots and masks so they don’t have to animate faces. Lighting and materials are lovely, with the exception perhaps of the shot at 3:03, which has some decidedly videogamey visuals in the ground textures and vegetation. Other than that, each frame from each scene could have been pulled…

I’d argue shovelware went big with the PS2 and exploded with the Wii... But E.T. shows that the birth of shovelware is way way far off in the past. Probably during the arcade clone Era.

The one problem I have with Dyson spheres is that to me they sound like trying to solve a problem that’s ages and ages ahead of us by using the knowledge we have today. A bit like a caveman thinking of reaching the moon by using a very long rope. He doesn’t know a single thing about computers or rockets, so he comes…

meh. Would be interested in playing, if not for the fact that I got Injustice for the Wii U and WB abandoned the game, not releasing the last DLC characters.... and then I got MK X for PC, and WB abandoned the game, not releasing the last DLC characters.

Netherrealm and WB can go suck on a doornail for all I care.

Thankfully, I caught that one and clicked “here” to “cancel upgrade”.

I’m just sad that I won’t be getting a lot of classic characters I wanted to include in my collection. Simba, Timon & Puumba, Ariel, Sebastian, Genie, Goofy, Stooge, Darkwing Duck, Artoo, Threepio, Old Obi-Wan... My collection will never feel complete without these guys.
