Too Human video explains co-op mode

May 30th 2008 4:19PM (Joystiq)
I am a true believer in Too Human and in Silicon Knights in general. That is because i have followed their history way back, and been reading as much as I have been able to through out the days. Dennis Dyack has a lot of very interesting thoughts and ideas. He and his "guild" has put more effort in to Too Human than any of you can imagine. Well, atleast i cant.
When I read all the nej-sayers comments on Too Human, I always come to the conclusion that they dont know shit. Neither about Too Human nor about creating games. People keep talking about graphics as it is something that define a good game. For me it doeasnt.
I still think many old games comes with an experience that is unrivaled in terms of feeling. You people who judge games by graphics and stylish blah dont know what you are missing out on. I bet you are the same kind of folks that choose to ignore people that are not beautiful. The day you realise that there are so much more in life, you will problary be so fucked up inside by the opinions inplanted in you, that its too late for you to think of your own.

I am convinced that Too Human will be a wonderful game with a lot of depth and with story telling so rich that you will keep caring about it, even when you are not playing.
But thats just me.

Robbie Bach and Don Mattrick talk to Joystiq about Peter Moore's departure

I can honestly say that it make me sad to see Peter leaving Microsoft and the Xbox team. When i read it just a minute ago it hit me really hard in my chest. Peter has done an amazing job at Microsoft and I love his professionalism and his understanding of the industri. He has always had a charisma that I have grown to really like.

It's hard to see anybody else taking over the role that Peter has had on the xbox team.

I really hope he loves his new job, and that he is doing this choice because of personal reasons and to become happier.

Peter, You are a great person for the gaming industry and I think that you have done an amazing job during your career. I wish you the best at your new role at EA and I hope you will enyoy the changes in your life.

Kärlek.

Confirmed: $100 price drop, new 80GB PS3 coming August

Very nice of you Sony.
I have to admit that my involuntary hate for Sony just got a little lighter all of a sudden. If they show me some interesting stuff at E3(I am sure they will) maybe I will buy one when the price drop effects us in Europe.

So let's say in december?

Mizuguchi to reveal new XBLA game

Amagad! Please please please give me Rez to XBLA. Imagine being able to buy a wireless trance vibrator. Seriously. My girlfriend has gotten of so many times by that trance vibrator, and imagine what you could do with a WIRELESS one. If you like Rez, i can really recomend the USB trance vibrator. Then both you and your girlfriend can enjoy the game. This must be what that thing was made for?

Is your favorite weapon still in Worms?

Mass Effect to fit snugly onto one disc

Feb 27th 2007 9:41PM (Joystiq)
I know not much about compression and optimization of data in game development, but I sure am impressed that Mass effect will fit into one DVD. I think that the decision of not having a "next-gen" format drive in the 360 was a give and take. They can bring down the prices of the console to a reasonable level, and the loading times are greater. But in time the PS3 will show stuff that is not possible by using "only" 8,5 gigs. It will be very interesting to se how Rockstar will use the different capacity levels. Because if there is any game that you really cant have a disc-swapping moment in, its free roaming games.

For other games, specially RPGS i really dont mind at all switching discs. Almost the opposite. I still think it is a nice moment when you switch discs. *Get flashbacks from when I was swapping discs in FF7*.

The most important thing in disc swapping is that you should only have to switch disc as you progress. Not for, let's say, coming back to a place where you have been before.

White Gold sniffed out for 360

For every trailer i watch or game i play that is a free roaming game, i get psychet out wondering how insanely great GTA IV will be. Loved crackdown btw.

"Remind me again what the ps3's only worthwile launch title is?"

"Talladega Nights. It's also available on DVD."

I award you for best comment i have read this year. It was almost as good as when i saw the comment: "I hate this commercial world. Now they are writing BOOKS after the Lord of the Rings movies."
