Natural Selection 2 demonstrates Darwin's theory in new video
Feb 6th 2012 4:23PM (Joystiq)check your science ... science doesn't prove anything as fact. it proposes theories then attempts to refute them. if it holds under testing it remains a theory, just the most prominent one, until it is replaced.
gravity isn't even a fact ...
The painful sting of Serious Sam 3's anti-piracy protection
Dec 7th 2011 7:28PM (Joystiq)especially since no matter the enemy that is all there is to do in serious sam games anyway ...
this is just a quick way to experience every level in 20 seconds
Hit Box stickless fight stick makes for malicious Mortal Kombat mayhem
Sep 11th 2011 6:07PM (Joystiq)most people say the new mk is terrible to play on stick ... watch any mk tournament stream and an overwhelming majority of them use pads.
Hit Box stickless fight stick makes for malicious Mortal Kombat mayhem
Sep 11th 2011 6:05PM (Joystiq)the problems come into play if a game wasn't developed with a keyboard as a potential input device you can do things like block both directions at the same time but that is basic development stuff ... if you allow people to play on regular controllers this should be fine (the same can be done with the d-pad and stick)
the introduction of the hitbox is a great thing ... its just an alternative that has its positives and negatives and has a learning curve like everything else. use what works for you

Capcom removing DRM character restrictions in PC Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition
Jun 2nd 2011 6:52PM (Joystiq)capcom likes to troll their fans ... never take what they say as fact until you see it in practice.
and for a game like SF, although any extra sales are wonderful, this series has done very well with just a console fanbase and your attitude will turn fighting games console only. they tested the waters and they were pretty damn frigid ... and they responded accordingly.
let it go .. you. heard something that got your blood pressure up but was never material and now you can enjoy the game
Dead Island box art needs longer incubation
May 30th 2011 9:50PM (Joystiq)Dead Island box art needs longer incubation
May 30th 2011 9:46PM (Joystiq)"hey look! remember how good this was? see we took absolutely no time and used zero of our brain and just reused stuff cus it created a buzz"
i too kinda like the idea of just a black cover with the original "dead island" with the guy hanging from the tree in red but since thats way worse than daddy's little dead girl the revised one would do.
as it stands their concept isn't bad. my only gripe is that its way too busy. but since i'll most likely (if i do buy this and i must say i was impressed by the gameplay i saw) download it on steam do whatever you want

Hideki Kamiya offers director commentary for Bayonetta
May 2nd 2011 2:36PM (Joystiq)it truly frustrated me to hear gamers say they couldn't get past the quirky nature/distinct sense of humor/unapologetic sex in the game and people who said it was too hard (and didn't realize they were just bad at it) don't deserve to call themselves gamers in the first place. all of that gave the game character but the gameplay is pure unrivaled bliss.
to this day i say this is the best game of this genre of all time ... people like to throw out the more recent ninja gaidens in this argument but bayo is a challenge that remains fun and fair throughout (everytime you got hit it was your own fault) and that is why i play this game to this day (unlike the ninja gaidens which i beat and then sold immediately).
mr Kamiya is a genius and platinum games is a godsend to the gaming community.
