Arkham City starts amazing.

The whole game is that way.

I must have been off when I tried to play it. I was thrown by being outdoors entirely. I'll try again at some point, but did not take to it immediately.

Game Informer try to say Witcher 2 looks just as good on 360 as it does on PC. What, like the same way Crysis 1 supposedly looked just as good?

Crysis also has better controls on console.

Maybe if the PC has medium low settings

Maybe if your eyes have medium or high level of blindness.

Order Up is a 3DSshop exclusive

Play the demo kids. I know I've mentioned it a billion times, but I can't recommend this game enough. The original Wii version has probably seen around 50 hours of gameplay from me, which is pretty impressive given that the game is only 8 hours long at most. The game's only crime is that it couldn't pick its place in the world. It's not shallow enough to be a mindless mini or social game, but nothing about the game's premise, gameplay, or controls would suggest that a more hardcore gamer would want to play it. 3DS owners need to get it now that it looks like it won't be more than $12 or so.

I really find this shit hilarious when people try to claim something like Witcher 2, a game that I had to buy a new graphics card for to max out because my old 4870 (the card that is in the new Nintendo console) couldn't do it....looks JUST AS GOOD on the old Xbox 360.

I understand these mags probably have an audience that favors consoles and that even some of the editors do. But what is the point of blatantly LYING to themselves and or their readers? To make themselves feel better?

Many believed that a worthwhile console conversion of this game would be impossible, but it's somehow fitting that the RED Engine's debut on Xbox 360 is in many ways even more astonishing than it was on PC. While there are some understandable downgrades, the overall look is extremely close - the insane level of detail in both surroundings and characters, the immense sense of scale in the richly defined, beautifully animated environments, the vast array of post-processing effects and atmospheric rendering techniques - in every way that matters, the 360 game delivers.


Perhaps most impressive of all is how The Witcher 2 handles light and shadow: everything is dynamically rendered in real-time and a multitude of light sources can be in play at any given point, with the game also supporting a full day/night time cycle in the appropriate environments. Nothing appears to be pre-rendered or "baked" into the levels as is often the case in console titles; there are no shortcuts here - a philosophy that extends to all areas of the game's technological make-up.


Best of all, The Witcher 2 on Xbox 360 is no straightforward port. CD Projekt RED has taken a good hard look at the game itself and improved it across the board. This "Enhanced Edition" is in many ways a complete re-appraisal of the game, packed with meaningful upgrades encompassing gameplay, graphics, content and technology.

I have no opinion.

I'm sure its great on 360 but again, there's no way in hell its even close to a maxed out PC version. BTW the Enhanced content is also available on the PC.

Capcom fan hassles Capcom USA VP about Ace Prosecutor 2 - on the telephone

Okay, I had a delightful chat with our mutual friend Christian Svennson. That's right, after a full year of waiting with absolutely NO new info on this game, I decided to just call him up and force it out of him.



He was pretty easy to get on the phone. I just called Capcom US HQ and asked for him. I got his voicemail. I left a message saying I was from the Make A Wish foundation. He called me back within the hour.





First of all, he was very rude, considering I indirectly pay his salary by buying Capcom games (well, I guess not anymore). He kept trying to hang up on me and was very condecending and sarcastic.





After a few minutes of trying to get him to say something of substance, I finally got him to tell me the following. This is right from Sven himself, folks.





He told me that there currently has been no work done in localizing the game. It is still being talked about at meetings, but it has yet to get beyond that point. When I asked him if we might get an announcement within the next six months, he said it was "very unlikely". When I asked him if we might get an announcement within the next year, he said there was a better chance of that, but that he couldn't commit to anything.





So there you have it, no AAI2 anytime in the foreseeable future. It looks like he was just bull**** us the past year.





I wish I could have recorded it, but you can just call him yourself. I recommend you do. The more people bug him about this, the more likely he'll do something about it. Here's his direct extension:

Let him know we are not okay with this! Let him know we DEMAND Investigations 2.

New Soulfly album is out, and its the best and heaviest album they've ever done. Better than Conquer even. I love it...rivals old Sepultura!
