Crytek turns back on Crysis updates

Jun 3rd 2008 3:17PM (Joystiq)
FEAR sucks? CRYSIS generic?

you guys make me laugh! they're both very entertaining games. Just 'cause you're stuck with a POS computer or a last-gen console posing as next-gen doesn't mean you'Ve got to be condescending to games you can't play.

gimme a break!

Engadget & Joystiq interview: Peter Moore, head of Xbox

Jul 14th 2007 1:21AM (Joystiq)
That interview started out great and then ended up terribly sucking. Shock journalism for the sake of shock journalism is sad.

I know there's a whole bunch of you out there that are out to get some CEO head because of hardware failure rates of 360s, but most of you don't even own one.

First thing you know, those blown up 360s have had some real USE. They were not 'folding' proteins to cure cancer. Secondly it's obvious that the machine was not tested in 'gamer's environment'. You know just by looking at a 360 that the thing should be treated with care-- yet some people put it on top of other appliances in narrow spaces where heat builds up.

A LOT of problems with the 360s out there were due to improper use, but then again people treat the machine as a 'console', not like a high end electronic device. What do you think would happen if you never changed your oil in your car eh? You'd damage the engine. It's in the manual you say? Everyone knows that?

It's not that simple. I think the 360 is an incredible machine, very powerful yet affordable. It's got games, its price is reasonable and it's now got the best warranty out there. That's all that really matters.

Two Worlds is (apparently) the most epic RPG ever

Preorders serve one main purpose: to gauge how many copies to order so that copies ARE readily available for those who have not preordered. It's simple really: if I have 10 preorders, I'll order 20. That way no one comes to the store and cries me a river because he drove 30 minutes in the traffic just to get that particular game at my store because he's a loyal customer blah blah blah. I say PREORDER, fools.

Half-Life 2 Black Box gone, only Orange Box remains

You're just a bunch of whiny bitches.

Last time I checked, 50$ is a great value for 3 new games. Especially when you still have the option of paying less when you buy them from STEAM.

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

NiGHTS to have weather effects

Don't hold your breath. Weather effects? I mean it's the Wii we're talking about here, it's not going to be a technical showcase.

GameDaily's delusional list of 'overrated' industry people

Mar 22nd 2007 11:59PM (Joystiq)
That's the saddest excuse for an article I've ever seen and for this I will not even pay them a visit (which is exactly what they want).

France passes tax break for game makers

Mar 22nd 2007 2:38PM (Joystiq)
Now you'd think the government would issue tax breaks for material at least INTENDED for French people, no?

Have you forgotten that the French speak French? Why would the government pay for products that will be exported, bringing nothing relevant for their Culture? The message is clear: they don't want to be a fiscal haven/hideout for developers.

That said, nothing stops the developers from making the game in French AND English AND Korean if they want to.

'French Elitist stereotype'? How would you feel if some company came to the US and made Korean games just to benefit from the tax break?

I'd really appreciate you remove that comment RIGHT AWAY. by saying that you certainly aren't better at 'fighting' the stereotype. I`m sorely disapointed
