Sounds like compression to me. I know there are specific tools for this, but they only work with Sonic 1 and 2. | |||

First of all, you are comparing a real time strategy game to an online role playing game. The developers wanted to achieve completely different things. That's like shitting on Mario Kart for not being the same as Super Mario Bros. Second, the statement that today graphics are more important than gameplay is bullshit. It's been like this since the dawn of the industry. For Christ's sake, just look at the Legend of Zelda commercial, and on top of that every Capcom NES box cover would have "State-of-the-art high resolution graphics" printed on it. Games could be viewed as gorgeus 15 years ago because they didn't have anything else to compare with, but they can still be pretty today in an artistic sense. Graphics are not just fancy lighting and polygon amount, it also covers things like atmosphere and character design. It's the entire visual experience. Graphics ARE a very important factor to a great, memorable game. Would you like to play a monochrome Ocarina of Time with stick characters? There will always be lots of shit games and some gems that will ultimately make the cut. There are plenty of cool things to look forward to, such as game physics that have added an entire new level of gameplay and user interaction. Half-Life 2 merely scratched the surface on what's possible. And for the record, Street Fighter Alpha 3 is one of the very best in the entire SF franchise :o (edited by GeckoYamori on 06-19-05 10:21 AM) |

The biggest selling point is and will always be brand recognition. That is why we are showered with the same titles over and over and over. Hell, they're too scared to even give their consoles creative names so they just put a number after it. |

Doesn't even look half as fun as Fester's Quest. | |||

Microsoft hatred only has a strong presence within nerd and semi-nerd subcultures. Otherwise they wouldn't have been enjoying their financial success. Before #3 GTA was first and foremost a PC franchise, and it had relative sucess on that platform. Sony just got the leftovers with some pretty terrible ports. After part 2 Rockstar signed a contract with Sony and the franchise was heavily marketed on a platform which was a lot more accessible to the gaming market. |

Because cliffhangers and conspiracies are cool. | |||

Tetris. Huge russian blocks from space threaten to destroy all life on the planet, and the fate of the world rests on Bruce Willis, whom plays scientist who invented a machine which brings the blocks together and makes them disappear by forming a horizontal line. | |||

I thought John Woo was in fact making a Metroid movie? And on top of that he was supposed to be making a CG TMNT movie. Either way, he's sure taking his sweet time as I read about both a long time ago. (edited by GeckoYamori on 06-20-05 03:20 PM) |

And of course, a board occupied by jaded Nintendo retro fans is the ideal place to ask. If nobody in the HL2 community knows, someone here is bound to! (edited by GeckoYamori on 06-20-05 03:23 PM) |

Now, which word would more logically be connected with "make", produce or direct? | |||

I always thought Leisure Suit Larry would make a great TV show. | |||

It doesn't take place on Phobos or Mars, demons from hell have been replaced with a fucking virus, the Pinky demon is a mutated guy in a wheelchair, the BFG is the "Bio Force Gun", and I think that's all you need to know. | |||

I guess I've played the '3D crap'. I recall getting it with Voodoo card back when the 3D cards where all-new. What was the original game about? Sounds to me like a post-apoc game like Wasteland. | |||

So, it's like that gorilla game where you throw explosive bananas? | |||

I've always wanted to do a reverse GFX hack, as in putting SMB1 graphics in SMB3, that would be interesting | |||

Got any pointers to these hacks? Can't find them on zophar.net | |||

Some are programmers, some aren't. Some get paid a lot, some get paid less, it depends on where they're working. Sometimes they have complete authority on what the game should be like, sometimes it's a collaborative effort from the development team. These weren't excatly the best questions in the world. |

Fallout 2 in January 1999, best damn impulsive buy ever. RPG at its best, and made me realize how restrictive and underdeveloped its japanese counterpart is. The few enlightened who actually have this game pretty much agree. Emperor: Battle for Dune was pretty good too. |

For some reason I can't read any content from freewebs, wether it's files or images. | |||
