Drugs & Gaming

Just noticed it's selling for £50 on PSN, what's that all about? £38 in Tesco, they want you to pay over 25% more to download it?
 
Grand Theft Auto games are not the greatest ever made. They might be the funnest, but they're not the greatest.

Fumito Ueda makes the greatest games ever made.
 
Still very busy with me oculus Rift and a bunch of sensors. lots of time spent in source engine, TF2 is still bitching in VR, plus there's lots of small teams of coders rolling out all kinds of odd and sometimes amazing concepts

And this one, Outlast, is plain terrifying:



Sensor suits:

Now Oculus Rift...There's something I would like to acquire. Apparently Hawken is brilliant on the Rift.
 
Bastard PS3 drive won't spin. Fuckity fuck.

Don't know what to do. I don't want to spend many more hours trying to fix it. I could buy a new one but I've only got one game now as I sold my others, and with PS4 coming out I'll soon have an obsolete console.

Mind you there are thousands of games available fairly cheap... fuck it new PS3 it is.
 
Should be able to get a new ps3 cheap. got my new shape for 70 quid without a hd
 
Ebay. the thin version or whatever it is. my old fat one went tits up, yellow light of death. still got the new tomb raider stuck in the fucker. mainly use it for netflix these days
 
ah, slim. Yeah I had one and sold it to another EADDer.

That's second hand then. Not sure about buying a second hand one, having just had one die on me. Think it'll be a trip to tesco.
 
I guess I'm fairly lucky in that my launch day ps3 still works perfectly...

Didn't realise it was a total relearning process to code for new consoles. I take back my point. Doesn't it just look like gta 4 though? I guess looks don't define a game to be fair...

There would be a non trivial amount of work to port the engine over yes, but a company like Rockstar would get a lot of support from the hardware developers to do this, we did at least on the xbone launch title I recently worked on, at a studio with a very well established engine (would rather not say for giving myself away). We had first light in a week or two and playable builds shortly after.

The vast majority of the coders work would lie in developing new features that were unachievable in
the previous gen. The art and mission design would take just as long (give or take) regardless of the hardware (gpu in the ps4 and xbone not such a huge leap as previous gens), and that's where the time and money has been spent here, this thing is huge.

Agree with ptch that the lighting / shader model in this one really sets it apart from gta 4 though :)
