so 14 months, not 24?

This thread will never die. Make it so.

Gameplay on Paridiso- the map built on Forge World's Island area. Looks awesome. One for Big Ass Vehicle Games, by the looks. The Island space is huuuuge!
-
Isn't that...
-
so no 360 demo? displeasing.
-
hahaahah that's incredible.

the bbc comparison is unfair- AMC is a subs based network in the US that works on a completely different model. AFAIK, They only actually produce three series' of their own right now so obviously the quality is going to be really high for each. The BBC is publicly funded, consists of dozens of channels, stations, websites and networks. Their focus is on journalism and entertainment so obviously their drama is going to be nothing like the US genre.

Impressive. The buzz is huge for this though so I guess they're feeling pretty sure of themselves. This gets better and better- first a 90 min pilot and now a guaranteed 13 episode second season. Yes.

Tough questions, Odders. I have no immediate answer for you.
-
I am reading the books first they are awesome.
-
demo today! Technically! not sure I can play this (I r spaz and have rubbish hands) but we'll see.
-
shit wig or no, she's fucking hot.

Year One is The Tits. Factoid for you, there.
-
Even Spider-Man 2 was weak in a lot of areas. Aside from the amazing movement and stuff, it was pretty shit.
-
I'm still hesitant about this- I just fear Spider-Man in sub standard games. I'll check it out pending demo/reviews though.
-
....maybe.
-
I still need 2 or 3 Firefight par scores. I'd be up for finishing those but the vidmasters...argh. Agony doing those.

Happy birthday SOAG!

Mhm I did think about Godzilla actually. It is kind of similar. Super Metroid is kind of like The Thing . It's the pinnacle of a kind of film making and technology that would soon be superseded but eventually holds up better in the long run. The Thing features what can be considered the best stop motion animation ever made, along with pioneering animatronics and makeup. They would eventually be replaced by CGI but if you go back and watch, say, Spider-Man now the CGI has aged incredibly badly, much in the same way as early 3D games replaced traditional 2D design. The Thing still looks absolutely amazing.
-
I actually think that, generally, games age very poorly indeed. It's one of the reasons that gaming is incomparable with cinema because technology and design often invalidates what's come previously and going backwards is often unpleasant. There are a few gems though. 2d has definitely fared better than early 3d. I can play and enjoy most SNES games and find them as fun as ever- Super Metroid is, in my mind, untouchable. Early 3d though like PS1, Saturn and N64 games particularly just feel horrible to play now with awful framerates, nasty textures and jutting polygons.

Aye. AA is quickly shaping up to be one of the best of the Heroic Age relaunches. It's much sharper in focus than The Initiative was later on and the characters are, so far, much better. self styled 'teen' books can often be full of bullshit and contrivances (Hello New X-Men not the Morrison one obv.) but AA is much more interesting and is currently fleshing out the academy students enough so that their age isn't really the focus so far. Very much enjoying.
-
well it's....largely going to be post, isn't it? Massive album though and, like you say, amazing.
-
spoilerz, I presume?
-
I think all their original dialog was various Johnson bites reversed. Wort Wort Wort is just the most famous.
-
This. Is. Awesome! Seriously cool issue. Great character work (Finally! Black Sampson and Bulletproof!) Nice new status quo, decent badguys (new and old), great Invincible cameo work. Ohmyword. Everything I wanted this book to be just delivered. Yes.
