Didn't see anything particularly new and outlandish here, I'll pick it up at $30 or if Borderlands 2 turns out real shitty.

He never sounds excited. I used to find this suspect, but listen to a podcast with the guy, it's how he always sounds.danyy2009 said:
The devs said it would fall into the 15-20 hour range. 15 for the core, and another 5 with all the side missions.Neotericity said:
I want to check this game out, but Dark Souls is today....... which I will forsake my mother for.... that's not really true, I love my mother, but you get my meaning.
I hate this time of year.
Looks interesting, but it doesn't stand out enough as a title I would buy at this time of year. Too many other great games I've been keeping my eye on, like Dark Souls, Arkham City and Skyrim.
If this was released 2 months ago, when there was barely anything new on the market, then maybe.

Come on, this isn't even trying not to be Borderlands. Wasteland? Check. Crazy gang-like enemies with masks? Check. Quirky wasteland inhabitants? Check. Driving vechicles from one mission hub to the next, sometimes shooting other vehicles? Also check.
Different ammo types and setting on Earth instead of a different planet are the only two things I can see that differentiates this from Borderlands. Oh yeah, and no multiplayer.
Also, did he say nucular or did I hear it wrong? :/

Ive been hearing a lot from other gamers that Pc version of Rage is utterly terrible. I myself have preordered rage since basically day 1 of preorders so I have huge hopes for it (backed up by gameplay and this review as well). But things that I've been hearing from PC crowd ( such as game freezing when quickly turning, no graphics options etc etc) things that make it sound absolutely terrible really and give me the impression that it's a really bad port.
Not sure what to think until I play it myself, but surely ID would not allow such a thing. I mean those guys practically invented FPS.

My bad I guess I'm just deaf and daft, sorry about that :/Baresark said:
i give it a miss. sick of regenerating health, driving was never my thing except in GTA, bc you can drive where and when ever you want. and since the game was mainly made for console, im more then skeptical about the pc version.
I'd be so very happy if everyone could just stop saying "nucular". It's NUCLEAR, people!
Beyond that, meh. Another post-apoc game that isn't Fallout. I might give it a shot once the price drops, but it smacks of Id wanting to use a common setting just so they can flex Tech 5's muscles. Plus, the idea that the game isn't completely open-ended kind of seems to be a letdown to me. Maybe I'm spoiled by Oblivion, Fallout 3 and New Vegas, but I'd like to have the option to just take off and see what's in this or that direction.
The only reasons why this worked in Borderlands were because of the random item generation and the fact that the bounty board system actually did make the game open-ended.
As it is, it just feels like Id sauntering back into the field, two or three years too late.

Which you have to pay more for... *sigh*Michael O said:
And just when I was seriously considering getting this game full price.
Unless someone can tell me any real replay value.
That's what I've been hearing as well. While the problems with ATi drivers can be attributed to AMD, there's been some serious bugs apparently. The texture streaming is horrible, and there's no graphical option other than resolution, AA and gamma. No V Sync resulting in screen tearing, no console command, shitty FoV, unable to use Crossfire or SLI, and fucked up mouse acceleration.Reaper69lol said:

Lack. Of. Technical. Options.
In. An. id. Game.
What has happened to the world?
I would ask PC gamers to wait a bit before jumping into this one. I'll wait for the Steam sale if it turns out to be a cheap port.

Maybe this is the apocalypse? Sort of a meta-apocalypse. An apocalypse of apocalypses.Kimarous said:
does it have a level up system?
do you have ability/skill points to spend?
are cars the only thing you can upgrade or are weapons also upgradable?
can you only play as some dude or are there multiple characters?
can I make decisions in the game that affect the story or is it all straight forward?
there's so much I still want to know
