Hey everyone! Few months ago i graduated from game design school and with that graduation came a vertical slice 30 minute demo game of mine to use as my portfolio piece.

Given the $800 price tag, the reviews on that laptop aren't horrible. They're more or less what you'd expect of a budget laptop. That said... 1. The PCMark tested battery life is 2hr 16m. That's kinda terrible. In a real world situation, with things like your GPU or HDD sucking up energy, expect it to probably drop down to…
Strengths: 1. Nice site design which fits screen. 2. Nice to see textures and normal maps for a change. A lot of people don't show that. Weaknesses: 1.

So far all textures is just a base coat with small detail. Trying something different by starting with creating all my normals in nDO2 and having…
I really wouldn't expect much from it. I would probably count on being disappointed that way if it does give you something you can use, you'll be pleasantly surprised. I'm not sure we should call kinect capture, motion capture. One other drawback to using the kinect is that it doesn't do subtle motion all that well. Most…
