For a second there I thought it said he was a "China Low Carbon Emission".

Why? Maybe you need to improve the efficiency of air flow around the supported four-way SLI Nvidia cards. Maybe you're tired of putting a new computer on your desk and realizing the cool window with all the lights inside is facing away from you, god dammit. Every f***ing time.

Genre and game have not always been that clear cut, and honestly they still aren't. They mingle, intermingle, and whatnot.

I'd expect him to split the content of a game with its execution a little more than he does in that first comment. Sure, League might be dead in 100 years. Will MOBA? We shall see...

I think it's less a matter of definition, and more a matter of convenience. We're using these terms to distinguish between old/new, and as soon as enough people think the 360 and ps3 are "old", that distinction will start taking over in every day conversations, at which point it will be like that. What drives that…

I can't imagine it's illegal, since web servers have been doing this since they started operating. What would be illegal is if the game was released in Germany, and was sending out this information without explicit consent from the user. Any form of under-the-radar analytics is illegal in Germany afaik.

Reminds me a lot of the Radeon 9600XT I used to own a long time ago. I probably still do, but I've forgotten in which computer I left it. Probably one of the several old computers still stashed at my parents' house, or maybe I put it into one of the old ones at my dad's office. I've been trying to find out for quite…

Both of which are not visible in the current format (youtube)

Don't forget the first to put their mechanized warriors to roam other people's streets in the name of security :P

I reckon a huge amount of in-game character animation is already being re-used year after year. Running, walking, limping, getting hit, getting killed, etc. There's no reason to redo those animations, since they will be the same. Just like with audio, you just resample it at a higher resolution, and employ it again,…

I'm not talking about aim down sights. I'm talking about the aim following the view, rather than a still-framed view where you point and shoot like an arcade on-rail shooter.

What's with the in-screen aiming? Kind of feels like an on-rails shooter like this, is it? Any word on what platform this was recorded on?

Yeh, I thought it might be the video card. I'm using a Radeon HD6970. The way it usually looks in FC3 is that there's this dark halo around all the edges of characters, regardless of their distance to objects behind them. It's especially noticeable when you first get to the cabin with the doctor. The exact same thing…

Speaking of HBAO, I wonder what all the hype is about. I've seen it in a few games and all I can say is that it really messes up the entire look of every game I've seen it in. Most notably, Far Cry 3 and AC3. I've often opted to just turn all of that AO off, since even SSAO looks disjointed more often than not.

I tend to always want to use offline mode when Steam has somehow preloaded some update that it needs to install upon restart, and then you must be online.

And you're not the only one. I still do actually. I couldn't care less about multiplayer.

There's a pretty good list over at wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_g…

I went to a party a few years back (it's not as widespread here as in the US, but it is up and coming) as Agent Smith. Full suit, black sunglasses and earpiece. And the fact I'm balding a bit on the front helped.

Perhaps, but you're forgetting that platform holders get money for every sale of a product on their platform. So by extension any sales on a contender's platform is a lost sale.

It's not the consumer the term exclusive is denoting. It's the platform holder.
