CliffyB: Epic Must "Drag" the Industry Into the Next Generation

[Johnson McGee]

Everyone remember when that game Minecraft failed miserably because its graphics were awful? Thank god there's finally someone willing to give the history of the industry a hard look and expertly pick out the one shortcoming of video gaming today: bad graphics.





hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Oh look, someone with a clue saying something

I am not sure if you are sarcastic or not. Please do not take this the wrong way.

Wow,its suprising that a guy i didnt care about(exept for making Gears of War, a game that bored me out of my skull),managed to make me want to kick him in the jewels,with only one statement.Its kind of fascinating ,you know? Why not make games stream images directly into the brain, instead of a monitor? If you want to jump high, you might as well jump to the moon.

Captchaaint it Red,is that a sugestion? I think captcha is going full satan on me...

Hey, Cliffster, does this new super duper engine keep any room left over for, you know, colors?

Fuck colours, we need more grit, and brownscale.

[HEADING=1]more grit![/HEADING]

I seem to recall a period in the comic book world back in the early 90's where comic books started selling like hotcakes. The biggest craze back then were whomever the hottest artist was at the moment, and whatever biggest gimmick they could come up with.. IE chromium covers, multiple different covers for the same issue, etc. etc. They forgot what made comic books great... THE STORY. The comic book industry imploded, and almost went under.

There is a lesson to be learned there, that some gaming devs should really pay alot of attention to...

All flash, and no substance will not support a gaming future. Not a worthwhile one, at least.

Yes, because the only games that use the unreal engine are Gears of War. Please.

i was thinking about throwing 'more like drag it down' in, though i do wish I'd have added the bit about him defending 'on disk DLC as a necessary evil' but i didn't think a that till just now.

There ya go!

It's basically the thing you did with the words and the arrows and stuff...

OT: While I agree that we should be improving in other areas such as writing, controls, game design etc.
I would be a liar if I said that I didn't want a game that looked like

Spoiler: THIS

the whole way through.

It's not MUST it's want to. And why do we need another generation so soon anyway?

Because if you don't change the hardware for something long enough, technology and ambitions go higher but are capped because of the hardware their using.

In the news, Cliffy B. Says something completely ill informed, stupid and worthless of a retarded, handicap from the waist-down baby. Other news is that a army of aliens will not, infact be visiting, so shut up about it.

 

[Lord_Gremlin]

Why do I always feel like punching a badger every time CliffyB opens his mouth?

Because if you looks at just the right angle you'll see Cliffy B IS a badger.

Seriously though, this pisses me off. UE3 is by far one of the worst looking engines out there.

Because the badger must be stunned in order for you to stuff it into CliffyB's said mouth. They squirm too much when fully conscious, makes it hard to get a good seal.
