I'm actually in this movie too. Was there for 3 days of filming in Oakland at the Colosseum.

Reminds me of that Nuka-break Fallout 3 vid. And that is a good thing.

PS3 users report LA Noire overheating issues, Rockstar and Sony respond [update: Freezing issues also reported for PS3, 360]

@My Prerogative To be fair, when it comes to Rockstar's games, I tend to buy it on every console it comes out on. As seen here: http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g147/jnzooger/3510d5ee.jpg

But then, I'm a bit OCD.

III didn't have multiplayer, respect, crazy future guns, and was far too easy compared to 2.

It's the same thing every era.

Playing DS on a 3DS is less than ideal

This was true of PS1 games on PS2, PS2 games on PS3, Gamecube games on Wii, Xbox games on 360, GBC games on GBA, GBA games on DS, etc etc.

There are always tradeoffs with backwards compatibility. Like how the GBA lacked the ir port, or the DS lacked the link cable. The point of it is so you can continue to play your old games without having to have 30 consoles hooked up at once or in your pocket. I personally never get rid of my old consoles because I find they play best on the original hardware, but that doesn't mean I don't take advantage of bc in newer consoles.

The point addressed in this video is a nonissue though. We are used to upscaling in old games these days. In fact, the SuperGB and GBA Player were designed specifically to take advantage of that fact.

Also, newer hybrid DS/3DS games are likely to come out that support the higher resolution when used on the 3DS. I believe Pokemon B/W already supports the 3D feature of the 3DS.

You do realize Rockstar didn't make the game right? They only published it.

Making a whole new engine is a lot more difficult than modding an existing one.

New Homefront dev diary changes retail history

@Gortyo
This is exactly what I was thinking. In my area, there are still former Circuit Citys and Mervyns standing empty cause no one can buy them. From the outside during the day, you can't tell they are out of business.

Also, there are still a couple of Circuit Citys that are still in business back east, so yeah...
