Hi everyone, I'm a 3D modeler with a good experience on low-poly models who would like to make a 3D homebrew for the Nintendo DS: a futuristic racing game, similar to F-Zero or Wipeout. This is how it might look like: [ame]http://www.metacafe.com/watch/4219943/nds_futuristic_racing_project_teaser/[/ame] This video is made…
This asset is intended for a real-time/game environment. I’ve attached the reference images I’m aiming for, along with wireframe and UV layout. The asset currently uses a single 4K texture set at 512 tx/m. No trim sheets or tiling textures were used. After rendering, the textures feel a bit softer/blurry than expected, and…
This is great so far! Love the character. I think it would really help to hand this to a 3d modeler, and see what questions they ask about it. Creating a 3D game character from 2d concepts requires a lot of thought and effort, and hearing their questions will help you understand what's missing from your work, which they…
Hehe well Naughty Dog wouldn't be affiliated with the Xbox would they. ;) I have heard that MS have some kind of augmented reality/google glass thingy in the works though, will be interesting to see if SONY have anything similar. All I know is that Nintendo gimped themselves again by putting a crappy CPU in, so I guess the…
Large title games always get leaked out early, system sellers end up on the internet weeks before they are available for purchase. I remember seeing an entire playthrough of The Last of Us on PS3 a whole month before release, and I remember Gears of War 3 got leaked out like 3+ months in advance, it's nothing new…
Another big issue that has been facing the Vita is what's been happening in Japan. Nintendo scored a major upset when they convinced Capcom to shift the focus of Monster Hunter over to their platforms. Right now the Vita just has an optimized version of a PSP Monster Hunter game that you can download from PSN. The 3DS has…

[ QUOTE ] You know what happened.. there used to be a clear distinction between games and simulators. nowadays most games ARE simulators.. And they forget what GAMES are. [/ QUOTE ] Crysis is probably the best example of an realtime outdoor environment simulator. They put a game in it somewhere. I read an article once that…
[ QUOTE ] /me hands Sony a shovel. [/ QUOTE ] What good is that going to do them? They're already trying to dig themselves out of a hole... what they really need is a very tall ladder. After reading this thread, it's funny to see such a drastic change in opinion. I remember about a year ago when the Nintendo "Revolution"…
I went to E3 this year and had a great time, it was great to see a lot of original games instead of a bunch of sequels! Yes there were still more sequels than original games but its encouraging to see some developers broadening there horizons even within specific genres, there seemed to be something for everyone. For the…
