The PS2 is still surprisingly powerful, Gran Turismo 4 had DOF, HDR, fairly decent models, good reflection mapping AND it ran in 1080i without a hitch. getting a sports game to look great in 480i/p seems pretty doable to me. I can't imagine much effort was put into the Wii version compared to the PS2 version (A lot of…

Oeh god think what this will do to call of duty with all those papers fluttering around.

that's not too crazy to expect I think. They had magnetic tape, it would be trivial to record in your own sounds or to mix them onto a new tape back then. the only difference is you have to make 6 tapes, one for each channel, audio was a lot more advanced back then than you think. also you can achieve a lot of special…

I find it odd that they propose actually doing on site 6ch audio, rather than post mixing in the effects they want. (I would assume they are well versed in this stuff by this point in time)

That poster is disturbingly high quality.

Are you still using the standard composite cables?

this reminds me, are there any applications out there that allow you to make colour adjustments to the display? 7800k is blue as fuck. I'm picking up an S3 next Monday. I plan on rooting and possibly installing a custom rom.

I had no such issue, also mine was a first gen/nolight

"gorgeous on my 46-inch Westinghouse" I'm mega confused right now, you used "Westinghouse" and "gorgeous" in the same sentence. That is all. (even though I don't doubt the TV looks alright I don't think I will ever listen to you if you complain about color.)

these actually look more like they are a funky type of earbuds. they go in your ear vent side facing out and the hole blows sound into your ear.

I have one of these I use for 16'x9' outdoor screen, looks pretty good. for the price you can't complain.

Either way the game is fun but it takes a ridiculously long time on the Xbox after I'm used to my PC (it isn't awful but when you make a mistake and have to go back you're like "DAMMMIT")

I think he's on xbox. loading screens take no more than 8seconds on my mediocre desktop. and only happen in new buildings/caves. there are some stutter/hangup type things when it loads new "cells" but they go largely unnoticed. My good rig usually takes 3 seconds to load anything. No SSD just a 7200rpm WD blue

while we are on the topic of gaming graphics getting "updated" I've noticed a trend where the minimum graphics settings are absurd. It is impossible to set it up to be playable on a 4 year old computer. I mean wow. DiRT Showdown as an example... It looks great on my laptop... but it isn't really playable. I know I can…

As an independent rep I'm not sure how to respond to this. because while all office work is done at home, at least 2 days a week I spend 4-5hours on the road.

What makes you so sure? not that it seems out of the question. Polyphony is kind of the kid with ADHD for Sony so it makes sense I guess. personally I'd rather have a launch title incomplete but I see from a sales standpoint that it could be detrimental.

hmmm, the way I see it the biggest hurdle is porting the engine used for the game over to the "orbis" platform. they spent the 3 years designing the game and assets (this seems like enough time to me especially since many are recyclable/they have better versions in house from dev.) Considering that they may only have…

It probably will be free DLC for GT5. Unless they have a GT6 planned for launch of the PS4

Yeah, because triad members wouldn't have obvious names at all... no way. It's more of a stereotype of gang culture in general but it rings very true.

Probably because you know... there is a truck to put the trash in.
