AMD Cinema 2.0 tech demo: real-time photo-realistic human models

Aug 12th 2008 12:16AM (Joystiq)
Screw pictures, see this stuff in motion at youtube under "cinema 2.0". I hope this technology reaches the next generation of consoles although I still have doubts. Seriously though, fracking awesome!

Star Wars Retrospective: Episode VII visits the Empire's shadows, the old republic

Jul 22nd 2008 3:56AM (Joystiq)
All three of these games are the only Star Wars games I own. Shadows of the Empire was a damn good game. I remember playing the Hoth level over and over again.

And then of course KOTOR, my favorite game of all time. I had never before played an RPG that was so in depth with the lore and style of a story. The plot twist that happened well into the story was completely unexpected and caught me entirely off guard. Plus the soundtrack of KOTOR has to be one of the best soundtracks for any game. Seriously, listen to some of the tracks (especially the ones on the planets Manaan and Dantooine). Watching this retrospective gave me a great feeling of nostalgia. Brings back loads of memories.

Then of course came KOTOR 2, which brought the KOTOR series into a brand new, in-depth sequel. Although not quite as good as the first, it was a well made and well executed sequel. I definitely loved the darker tone that went with KOTOR 2.

I usually don't comment on here (been a daily reader for three years) but I had to express my thoughts on my favorite game of all time!

And one last thing. I hope KOTOR 3 is in development and if there is an KOTOR MMO, I hope that Bioware is also working on a single player campaign either in the MMO or as a separate game.

Rumor: BioWare's mystery MMO based on KOTOR

If this ends up being true I will be very angry!

Get Kotor 3 done first, then do the MMO.

What about Kotor 3?

Final Fantasy video retrospective: Part IV

Seeing this video and knowing that I've never played a final fantasy game, I think I'll buy all the ones on the
Gameboy Advance and play them.

Final Fantasy retrospective beginnings: Parts I & II

After watching this I can't believe I haven't played one
final fantasy game.

Final Forza 2 car list rev-vealed, headline writer shot

Apr 20th 2007 10:52PM (Joystiq)
They have the Mclaren F1 GTR, I think now I might buy the game instead of rent it.

EGM: "Word is another Halo game is in the works."

I don't think anyone can take you seriously once you said "gaylo".

Forza 2's (almost complete) car list revealed

Mar 9th 2007 7:26PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Too bad the Mclaren F1 LM didn't make the list like it did in PGR3. It's my favourite car.

What games are you ashamed to say you've never played?

Feb 14th 2007 12:18AM (Joystiq)
Pretty much most games before the 5th generation of consoles. I also missed out on a lot of good Xbox titles.

Although the ones i'm ashamed of the most are:

Morrowind, God of War and all the Final Fantasy games.
