  1. Anyone want to get in on some KZ3 Beta in a bit today?

      Yeah, I'm down in like 30 min to an hour.

      Ugh, nevermind - I just tried 8 times to get into the multiplayer menu and got error code 8001 - I sure hope they fix these network/server issues by launch.

  3. Yeah, I mean their focus on this latest engine in early dev videos for the engine was basically - hey look - it's Crysis, but running on consoles. And Crysis was among the most pirated games, I believe. I wouldn't be surprised if they started shifting more toward console development
  4. I unfortunately only know some basic web coding, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try learning some 'real' coding. HAY DEAN. We should just mod this thread and make it a "let's make a game" thread.
  5. IMO, piracy for consoles, for the average gamer (like myself) is too complicated to bother with. That's why piracy is so common for the PC, it seems - it's so easy to do for the average person.
  6. I dunno Peteer, I get that consoles could pack a lot more horsepower, but my concern is the limits of human artistry. I mean at some point, you just can't make things look that much better than they already do, no matter how much power you have at your disposal. Wasn't that the (admittedly, kind of lame) excuse the FFXIV devs made? That there were no towns because they would take too long to render, when the visuals needed that much detail? It makes sense though - the better games can look, the more money, talent, time and manpower they take to make. Even though technology can get exponentially better, it still takes humans with serious talent to render them - at least, for now, until we develop something that can help humans even further with the art side?
  7. Yeah dean, that's basically what this thread quickly morphed into. I used to mess around with the Descent 2 and Half Life level building kits when I was like 12, but that was... dear god... more than ten years ago... terrifying!
  8. Ahh. That makes sense. Durff. I haven't gotten around to checking out the 360 Beta yet.
  9. The Beta is out on PC now? I had no idea - need to google that!
  10. Argh - I thought the Beta was this weekend again, so I came home to check it out. Blargh on me for not paying attention.
  11. Wait - I'm confused. Next Gen Console? You mean... like after PS3 and 360? I don't think those are even on the horizon, are they? I'm thinking it's like at least two years before they even announce a new console generation.
  12. If we've got some artists/coders, we've also got more than enough people to write batshit insane dialog for the NPCs with the crappy AI. That could be a really amusing game/mod.
  13. I don't think anyone did. I think we all saw, 'Apple Console,' and went straight to 'RAGE!!'
  14. I'll be going to dinner, and stepping a little further into the endless spiral of credit card debt. Our two-year anniversary was last week, so we already kind of did the anniversary/v-day combination stuff (and my wallet cries out in agony). Yay?
  15. Hmm... I still need to finish the first game before I buy this. I couldn't really get into it for some reason, despite how pretty it looked.
  16. Doesn't blizzcon sell out ridiculously fast? PAX Prime, perhaps - I've always wanted to go, and one of my best friends lives an hour and a half from Seattle. It would be awesome to meet and hang out with some of you folks at a came con! I've never gone to one and always wanted to.
  17. Hmm it should be. I wonder if they only had it enabled for the live stream? It was supposed to be today though, so that would be BS - maybe I heard it wrong though. He announces it in the first two minutes of the video, so see if you hear something different.
  18. All of the audio? I'm not sure on that, but... Obviously you go to "Accessory Settings > Manage Bluetooth Devices" for a Bluetooth headset. In the individual game is where you'll find headset options. LittleBigPlanet (1/2) has great audio options for headsets. However, the only thing I've been seeing in the KZ3 Beta is volume percentages. Perhaps if "Headset" is at 100% and everything else is 0%? The issue is hardware related - you need the original AV cables. However, I found one tip that said if you have a headphone jack, you should be able to plug in there and get audio - I'm going to try that the next time I'm home. Still, thanks for the tips!
  19. I am envy! Though, not of your 30gig cap limit.
  20. Obviously I wasn't paying attention to your introduction (or forgot, typical of me) - where are you from, Excel?
  21. Nice link, Goh. In the Video, it says you can get DA: Origins, Ultimate Edition, for 60% off, if you enter this code: DA2LIVECHAT So, for those of you that have been looking for a deal on the complete version of the first game.
  22. Seems that PC Gamer super liked DAII: http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/02/11/first-dragon-age-2-review-takes-editors-choice-award-in-pc-gamer/ My subscription has expired, but I guess the issue hits stands the 16th - they'll probably pop the review up on their site as well at that point. Even though the full review isn't up, that's good to hear. I'm still pretty firm in my belief that this game is going to excellent, despite everyone's concerns.
  23. Ohh man, this reminds me of the pre-comment notification days. It's true, it was usually a major task to find your comments and see if anyone had actually replied. I remember bunedoggle - this third party app you could set up so that you got emails when someone replied, that would stop working all the time.
