    DUST514

    This could actually turn out to be a very interesting and ground breaking concept of which MMO's and FPS games haven't hand in a long long while. MMO's have been pretty stale has of late and nothing earth shattering come about. Take WoW for example and their loss of subscribers (which isn't a...

    Microsoft E3 Conference 2011

    Seeing this online isn't helping my opinion of the whole kinict thing and I'm sure it will be the same for Sony's. They way I see it some games make more sense such as the dance game compared to Fable in which you want some fast movement. I guess what I'm trying to say and it sort of...

    Sony joins EA and Ubisoft in considering limitations on used games

    Yeah, I see that now. I wonder if they had to sign it or if it was just assumed. I also wonder how that will hold up in a court of law if they decide to take action. From re-reading the article it sounds like more builders oppose it than support it. And that some government agencies are...

    Sony joins EA and Ubisoft in considering limitations on used games

    Let the buyer beware - there is no excuse for ignorance or stupidity. In the link above the buyers said they had no clue about the fee. So the question is. Did they read it before they signed? Did they understand what they signed? Or....is this so new that the people who went over the loan...

    Sony joins EA and Ubisoft in considering limitations on used games

    It is a interesting read, I'd recommend everyone to do so. My initial response was just another idiot judge who doesn't understand how technology works today. Then after reading it I had to actually say I'd agree with him. If Autodesk had a EULA which stated as the paper above said, then it...

    Sony joins EA and Ubisoft in considering limitations on used games

    So how big is the game software industry??? Billion(s)?. Everybody wants their piece of the pie. Publishers are no different. This is a huge issue not only for consoles but also pc's. I'm not surprised at all but I will say this type of crackdown is a bit risky and very well could...

    Star Wars the Old Republic E3 teaser...

    No - the game wont' look like that. I agree. Not today anyway. Age of Conan is probably one of the better looking mmo's out today but the system requirements are just too high - it takes away a lot of subscribers. One more advantage to wow, eh? My point about lighting a fire. Video...

    Star Wars the Old Republic E3 teaser...

    I like the gambling connection. You could also say addiction, drugs, whatever. Anything that draws one in I guess. Then there are the power players vs casual. Those who just enter the world instead of watching countless hours of tv. Lets not forget the social aspect of it - another reason...

    Star Wars the Old Republic E3 teaser...

    Its one of the top 10 trailers out today - if not the best. Typically Blizzards group tops but whoever did this one, well, schooled them. Sensing a lot of hate for mmo's. Not everyone's game, that is for sure. However, the formant is making money hand over fist. More so if you are good...

    Developers standing up to gamestop ?

    My opinion - game sales will go down if this is the route the devs and pubs want to walk. Just my take. I know too many people who pick up a new game, play it through till they finish it. Play a bit more depending on replay, level of difficulty, etc - then say ok, lets resell. Ebay or used...

    Sony PS3 / Sound question

    Thanks everyone. I've not looked at the Logitech - so thanks. The only drawback to the Logitech is the number of speakers. I was trying to keep the setup small. Although I do like the logitech's optical out... Let me take a look at that a bit more.

    Sony PS3 / Sound question

    Hi - hoping this is the right forum section - if not, please let me know and I will move it. I have a quick question I hope regarding the Sony PS3 and sound. I have the PS3 connected up to a 42" Toshiba LCD - the regza line. I wanted to hook up something a bit better for sound as we are...

    Unreal creator Tim Sweeney: "PCs are good for anything, just not games”

    PC's will be around for a while and I don't see consoles taking it anytime soon. Not completely anyway. Why? MMO's. One alone has 10 million active subscribers. Now factor in all the others with their million here, hundred thousand there and the soon to be release secrete blizzard...

    *Sub-Thread* Consoles as the Ultimate Media Hub

    My opinion, for what it is worth, is that everyone is looking at this the wrong way... Its not the console or the PC which is the limiting factor but the standards and content. Fix that, and then either the PC or Console can be a hub. Until then, it is a no win for either format due to the...

    Uncharted : Drake's Fortune*

    Ok - got home and checked and it is set to limited. Wasn't sure where it was set at and checked via game menu but not there. Exit the game, check display, and then found it. It was set to limited - I'm assuming that is default as I have not set that before that I remember. I went ahead and...
