So I was watching Pirates 2 on my 360 last night and I gets a random voice message from some Yank that I have never even played with saying various profanities and how im such a Gamerscore Whore and Im probably a fat git playing games all day on my mothers sofa. Americans are such nice people!

 

EDIT:

 

GRAW 2 Details

 

From the new Game Informer.

 

Here are some details from the article

Developed by Red Storm and Ubisoft Paris, and has been in development since Graw was launched. It will contain the following graphical updates which has been concluded that it easily eclipses its predecessor in terms of visuals. They include the following

 

1.Dynamic Weather Conditions: Taking place in sandstorms to howling rain, with subtle details such as after a rain storm the mission area glistens with moisture and features standing pools of water on the streets. As well as wind and weather simulation.

 

2. Object Translucency: Which allows players to see through surfaces like leaves and fabrics under the right lighting circumstances.

 

3. God Rays: Also a technique that simulates the way light goes around a surface that blocks light. God Rays allow the player to see the limits of light, creating the hard edges rays of light often seen pouring through cathedral windows.

 

4. Smoke Effects Techinques called Depth Sprite in which smoke particles move over and around objects like an actual gas, elminating the hardlines you see between clouds and surfaces you see in most games. The smoke also reacts to light and wind.

 

Demos were shown that showed the dynamics of the smoke. Such as a helicopter down draft that forced huge plumes of smoke away from the landing. To an explosion forcing away a smoke cloud with the light of the fire reflecting off the particles in the cloud in real time.

 

5. Improved particle effects that send debris flying in explosions and chips exploding off walls when struck by a bullet.

 

I will move onto the other features when Im not tired of typing.

 

UPDATED:

 

-Graw 2 deals with the escalating turmoil just south of the US border.

 

-It all takes place over 72 hours

 

-It will have way more varied locations including fighting through the mountains, forests, etc.

 

-Whats more the combat will be on both sides of the border, Mexico and the US appearently.

 

-the first section of Graw2 will take place around the Mexican City of Juarez, 2nd in a war torn urban Center, the final tasks players with repelling a full fledged invasion of US soil for control over El Paso Texas.

 

-In another demo the a smoke cloud was forced away from a sudden explosion, and the light from the fire reflected off the particles in the cloud in real time.

GRAW 2 sounds pretty cool!

 

I was wondering what is your guys take on the coolers for 360's? you know Nyko's etc. All of the coolers I've seen have had very varied review some saying it killed their console some saying it's saved them from crawling over and dying... So do you guys think thier console killers or console savers?

I have also recieved nice abuse from an american recently

:horse:

[ZeldaFreak]

All you say is well we all know that when you go in the bath the water is displaced at such a rate in can create the first hydro electro displacement engenine for saving the planet.

 

Then he goes what the fuck and you never get abuse from them again.

 

Lets all mock americans

[Guest Stefkov]

GRAW 2 sounds great. I was relieved to finish the first one on normal. Im gonna try and get hard done before this comes out.

He does have a point though.

[Bren]

let's not...

[Guest Jordan]

let's not...

 

Well in our defence, most Americans on XBOX Live appear to be smack talking fuck tards.

[Fierce_LiNk]

Is there a way to block these people out? Like, you can only accept messages off people you know (are on your list) or something?

I agree, in fact it's got so bad that i really don't play live anymore. I don't need a 10 year old yank who has a voice like a little girl telling me that i'm gay. When i hear a voice that isn't American, i know i'm going to have a good game. An example would be i was playing COD 3 for the first time online, and i asked my friend where the action was, so this American starts shouting orders at me, like it was a real war! And he starts calling me a 'noob', i mean who actually says that word? I know they're not all bad, but most are, and it's making me consider not renewing my live subscription.

[Meik]

Yeah, this is why I only play with my friends on XBL. It's also why my "Trueskill" rating is 1.

[ZeldaFreak]

just say to him vietnam getsa them all the time.

 

I had a wwe match and this guy was saying your going to feel the pain. So I simply said your gay, and said that every 5 secs managed to steal his created championships well funny
