Because there is a lot of base stuff that really doesn't need to be rebuilt and works very well.

Id didn't actually make quake 4.

Try out quake live, it's free and a lot of fun.

Look at the tags in the original article. [www.rockpapershotgun.com]

Guys, I'm pretty sure the article is satirical. The tags on the original article are "Actively seeking Reddit downvotes, feature, multiplayer vs single player, the views of john walker are not necessarily the views of john walker."

Pretty sure it's satire.

My favorite are the "smooth" texture packs where the resolution is upped but a cartoony style is maintained.

That's the thing though, voxels are nothing new. They have been around for ages and have always been impractical.

Pretty sure it just changes your live username, so it will be changed for any service that uses live. Not 100% sure as I've never done it myself.

Perhaps this is different, but origin needs to be running for the BF3 Alpha to start. (Which I DON'T have ;) )

I imagine most of us geeks don't visit the genius bar too often :)

Not visually groundbreaking? It runs at 60fps! Name one UE3 game that runs at 60fps and looks this good. I dare you.

Everybody seems to be overlooking the fact that the game is titled Deus Ex, short for Deus ex machina which is latin for "god from the machine." Pretty sure that line was just a play on the title.

True. We won't really know until the beta comes out I guess.

Bad company 2 has a much more reasonable damage model. 4-5 bullets usually does the trick.

News flash, MOH ran on the BC2 engine.

Actually, I take that back, it looks like they come out of the left side of the ak. look at the 3rd video at 2:23.

A lot of the guns in BC2 were like that. I don't really expect it to change.

This is the pc version. There was an issue with drivers causing the game to default to low settings. The game still looks amazing on high settings.

I'm pretty sure you can still do that, but if a patch is released while you are ingame it will begin downloading it for you. Correct me if I'm wrong.
