i remember how a few video game journalists got blasted by giving quake 3 a higher review score than UT.. the argument being that UT had a lot more gameplay types, etc, and more depth because of it. 10 years later, people are still playing quake 3.
If you've not seen the Phi Mask before it'd be worth having a bit of a read up on what it's all about. This website, despite having pretty much the worst design of any page I've ever come across, gives a pretty detailed explanation with discussion on variations between gender, age and race etc.…
Man I thought I wasnt a fanboy but... well. Damn even their april fools jokes makes me think "Hell, this would be fuckin awesome to play as/with/etc". http://www.starcraft2.com/features/terran/terratron.xml http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/characters/archivist.xml http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/pvp/dance/index.xml…
http://www.youtube.com/embed/BpA6TC0T_Lw This looks like a pretty awesome movie, even for it being CGI heavy. Been really annoyed with the predictability of movies recently... sequels/formulas and just plain bad ideas/rips from existing games etc. Seems like an odd movie to be 'excited' about but I'm looking forward to it.…
I think it's a very cool thing. They've actually used a model that looks exactly like him instead of using some buff dude who only has a remote likeness. It's the future! As for the Matrix video I don't think they're trying to show that they've ripped something off. They're merely showing where it all comes from…
Haha, Triff, that undoubtedly was the best thing I have seen all week. He hyped it up SO much lol. I felt the whole time watching like he was gonna round a corner to see SWAT taking aim at him. or some men in black ties would wisp him away. If you go to the dude's site who was featured in the video, he's got some pretty…
I've always been pretty interested in how they (artists, scientists etc) draw up the "design" of the dinosaur. Hay gaiz, I have a skull here! (or a claw, penisbone, whatever) and then they have a whole dinosaur sketched up the very next day. Not saying that this is the case here but hasn't there been a shitload of talk…
Pope is quitting his job, 3 other Cardinals are also leaving, first time in history over several decades/hundred years to happen. Running joke is the Pope found sex, and likes it, so he's going back to fapping. Lastly, that couch is "THE Couch", the running gag 'pun intended' on women who want to get into the entertainment…
Really really cool channel for any environment artists out there. Not 3d modeling stuff, but there's a lot of insights on layout, placement of foliage and rocks, texturing techniques, etc that carries over. http://www.youtube.com/user/ModelSceneryExpert?feature=watch Here's some examples:…
When I say Agenda, I don't mean a Governmental style underhanded research, but more something like a streamline of the research. For example, this has been argued thousands of time on how playing violent games = playing chess, not in terms of skill, but gratification on the basic level, and what stimulates us. So while…
