If they really want to release a console in 2014 then won't Windows 8 really have been out a while by then?

LOL, their service lets you take games you've purchased on Steam, and use the serial keys to get them again on Origin. So effectively, buying from Steam makes more sense since it doesn't work the other way round. Maybe they know this and they wanted to isolate their games to their store in the future or via retail. Ah…

Hrm, well Nintendo are aiming online, and as far as I can see in the UK, not a hell of a lot of people adopted Blu-Ray, and for good reason! Now is the time of streaming, and hopefully Nintendo know this and put up a robust media streaming service. Of course, this is very hopeful, Nintendo seem to stumble when it…

Aye, but with the PS3 you pay for it don't you? PS3 plus 3DTV, plus 3D glasses, plus PS Move (or multiple for multiplayer bouts) costs a lot.

As usual, their consumer base is cheap.

I like you. I totally agree at the lack of humour, comedic games would be absolutely great but they're so hard to pull off. Portal did so well because the lines were being delivered by robots, I think it actually makes things a lot easier. For a start the expressions don't need to be made for half the dialogue, and…

I Google'd this issue a while back to see if there were any studies. The ones I saw claimed that you really can't tell the difference. VBR is your best bet, it catches the files that have high pitch sounds or sounds particularly prone to warping and/or getting interfered with, and makes sure they are a high enough…

I guess lucky 3DS owners, it's a shame though because Nintendo have concentrated almost entirely on 3DS games. So many great sequels and new entries that could've been on the big screen :(.

I've just played the demo. So it's mildly amusing at times, but it definitely feels like it tries too hard to be funny. But not only that, the first level of the demo has a lot more laughs in it than one of the later levels. In fact, in the later level nothing made me laugh, so perhaps only the introduction has any…

I've seen you post this a million times, and it's beginning to get annoying. At least be a more varied, original troll.

Interesting, so you hated Fallout 3? I have to admit to never playing Fallout 1&2. Occasionally things have piqued my interest, but I think I'd find it difficult to go back to no voice acting and isometric RPG graphics. I read an article the other day about one of the quests coating a village in poo due to a certain…

Writing? Pretty sure Mass Effect 2's writing was worse than Fallout 3's. That would be an opinion though :P. I'll give you voice acting and animation. Quality Control is f*cking hard in a game as big as Fallout and Oblivion.

All I can think about this is, poor Peter Molyneux. People don't seem to be very excited, but that's because the graphics aren't hyper-realistic/epic, and none of the meat of the story can be shown. Okay, so it's not really innovating either. So why should it even pique your interest? Because it's basically Fable…

Lmao, definitely, I like that one a lot. Smug gabe is smug :/.

Oh gosh, absolute genius on offer here XD. I don't think I've ever found a 'shop contest on here as funny as this before, laughed out loud at the 'cake is a lie' one, the scooby doo one and the Waaaaluigi one XD. Also, the combustible lemons ;).

Well, interesting response even if it's buried under a snide veneer. Fair enough, in a perfect world we'd know everyone we met properly, we wouldn't have to make pre-judgments and we'd not use simple, shallow terms to describe complex people.

I thiiiink I had creatures 3, although maybe it was 2. I could see this huge, colourful map, but I could never get the creatures to do anything. Confusing game, I did like it though.

Aye, these comments made me think that too. Hardcore gamer is the more convincing term since it's used atm, but obviously it's used to imply that certain types of games are superior to others in some cases. I.e. someone who plays peggle might be considered a casual gamer, but the fact is they're still enjoying a great…

Y'know what? I'm glad I like a huge range of women. As far as I'm concerned she's at a far healthier weight now. I.e. take a good look at her and realise she probably has a comfortably average BMI and therefore it would be difficult to even consider her fat (not that that is the main problem here).

Agreed, they stay behind the curve so they can make the function really slick and easy to use (usually, anyway). And since consumers don't usually pick up a features until it's easy to use, Apple claim they thought of it first and a lot of people let them get away with it. So basically they revamp and polish being…
