Engadget goes eyes-on with Tobii EyeAsteroids 3D

It looks like it works real good.......NOT!

Cool concept, not yet ready for a consumer experience.

Alone in the Dark creator hopes for an HD remake one day

So a reboot would be a retelling of the story, separate from the gameplay or graphics. Sort of like the new Spiderman Movie.

@ocre

I hear you. But I think it can be a fine line.

I think they just the term for all games where they overlay the graphics, or in some cases even improve the engine and the graphics but leaving nearly everything else identicle. I think they use term "reboot" when they start from scratch even to the map, game mechanics and enemy level.

Think bionic commando. Which was a reboot? The game sort of fell flat; and I mean the "next gen version' and the 'arcade' 2D side scroller.

The Halo Anniversary was using the same exact game, just with new graphics overlaid. I don't know what else you can call it though, other than a remake.

The HD Overlay sort of sounds lame.

BTW, Alone in the Dark 3 (I think) was freaking badass for the PC like 10 years ago. I liked that game better than Resident Evil 1 or 2.

Yes, yes you are.

It made perfect sense to me. What you typed, and therefore your understanding of it, is different than what is written in the post.



Mass Effect 3 single-player review: This is it

@PostwarPenance

I haven't finished Mass Effect 2 yet. You ruined it for me.

For some reason, I am just reluctant to go to the "once you go here you can never go back" point in the game. And I am not a side quest guy, so I don't know why.

But now, thanks to you, I have no reason to finish it.


You jerk!

Journey review: I want to go to there

@RorschachTested

You are very welcome!

I had nothing to add or say about the review; I think it speaks for itself.

I guess I could have said, "Great review! I am going to buy this game." But then I would have been like everyone else. Which, in my opinion, not being a social media consumer of Facebook, I couldn't care less about if you plan on buying the game or not.

Like I said in an earlier post; I seem to be seeing more mistakes these days.

I absolutely HATE when I run into mistakes in books. It drives me nuts! For something that should be going across the editor's desk, such as these posts, that is unacceptable.

Fifth paragraph:

"Such minimalistic game design created an emotional bond between the me and the world;"

Delete the extra "the"....correct to:
Such minimalistic game design created an emotional bond between me and the world.

Again, where is the editor these days? On vacation?

Did the Joystiq eidtor quit or something? I see more and more mistakes in posts these days.....

"and say these issue have persisted since launch."

Corrected to:
and say this issue has persisted since launch.
-or-
and say these issues have persisted since launch.
