replays?

From most pc games and well halo 3 ,the only one that spring to mind on consles, you can record your gameplay or watch it back. This is often a fun way to record strange things or various epic wins you have had.

There are hundreds of halo 3 vid and various pc game vids on the web and on their own sites i.e. bungie favourites.

im i the only one who thinks more games should have this kind of function?And why dont any of the games seem to incorperate this.

They don't want to be accused of copying Halo even if it's not neccesarily a bad thing

 

[Remleiz]

a lot of games already have this function though

And they wouldn't be copying halo anyways, since they weren't the first to do it anyways
Warcraft 3 came out July 3, 2002, Halo came out November 9, 2005 thats over 3 years, and i'm pretty sure WC3 wasn't the first game to do it either.

So the only people who would blame them for ripping off halo would be the kind of people who consider today 27, may, 4 years AH (after halo) and those über fanboys should not be taken serious.

(Not trying to start a flamewar about halo, never played it, so I odn't care if its epic win or pure fail)

Oh include it if possible, otherwise use machinema or fraps or something, though it'll only record what you did and not let you get a full veiw of the match.

Yes I think it is a good thing!! i know some steam games have the demo record function (CSS being the one im thinking of), but things like fraps have been around for a long time so alot of PC games dont bother. But thinking about it, not alot of people really want to fill thier hard drives up with videos of themselves playing...

A lot of games and nearly all RTSs have this function y'know.

I would love to see that in more games, back when I played Halo 3 I would spend a large chunk of my time watching the videos of games I've played. Weird, huh?

Warcraft 3 came out July 3, 2002, Halo came out November 9, 2005 thats over 3 years, and i'm pretty sure WC3 wasn't the first game to do it either.

Pretty sure you mean Halo 2? Because Halo: Combat Evolved came out on November 15, 2001

Fraps, problem solved.

Thinking this one a bit more over, I think this would just result in an even worse Shit-to-worthwhile-content ratio on youtube.
