Deadlight first details: The meaning of 1986

Jan 25th 2012 9:19PM (Joystiq)
@esbeekay First Blood glorified the military? PTSD guy goes nuts in the woods is somehow glorifying? I think people are assuming First Blood was like the following Rambo films.. which it was not.

FFXIII's Lightning being added to XIII-2 in DLC, trailer highlights game variety

Um so who's that lady that looks like Lightning in the trailers? The wording of this article makes it sound as if she isn't in the game, isn't playable, and has no story.. yet I'm fairly certain none of those statements are correct.

The fact that there has been no mention of EXPO '86 concerns me. To set a game here in Vancouver during that milestone year and leave out the biggest event in Vancouver history would be such an epic fail. I want to run away from zombies on "Highway '86."

Don't be.. Slant Six is developing.

Report: 3DS components cost about $100

Wow I got downvoted a lot.. I guess a lot of you like to pay more. Keep in mind that not only do I want one but so do my 3 children.. that's $1000!!

Retailers typically get between $5-$20 on handheld hardware.. so close to launch my guess would be on the lower end of that scale. Maybe $10 profit for each 3DS sold.. that's why retailers rely so heavily on the add-ons... pick up your games and accessories today!

I don't want to rag on the 3DS cuz I quite like it but the truth is that behind the slightly better graphics the games are still pretty much on par with N64, the bottom screen is ass and even the nice wide top screen is too little too late. It only passes because of it's black magic 3D but it's 2D capability is greatly underwhelming. Colours, resolution.. not all that spiffy. The 3D camera is also a straight up gimmick that I was excited for but turns out the low res and lousy quality makes the 3D images absolutely boring. I only bring these things up because when you go top-tier pricing you expect top of the line.. instead we're getting the Wii all over again without the consideration in price.

Face it.. would you have paid as much for a Wii at launch as the 360 or PS3 just for it`s ìnnovative` controls

I still don't think 250 is a fair price. More than a Wii makes it a hard bargain. I've played it and quite like it.. but I don't like it 250 much.

Xbox 360 plus Atari 2600 equals Ben Heck's latest mod (also 2,960)

That Ben Heck seems like a real outstanding fellow.

@aristokrat

Well to be fair it was a really really stupid question that with half an ounce of effort would have answered itself for you. Some people just don't have the patience for incredibly stupid people..it's unfortunate but I can understand where he's coming from.
