Technically sound games this decade

fugly character models in Dragon Age

Really? What was your problem with them? .

Well, for a start, they looked like anorexic Thunderbirds puppets.

Horrible reddish brown colouring, sloppy animations, armour that magically passed through itself...

And Morrigan's wierd skinny twig arm.

uh...? what? are you surrounded by fatty's? they were fine in body size, morrigan was skinny sure, but i have seen skinnier in person

the colors were fine.. i didn't have anything lag on me at all in that game and the armour was fine, it didn't take away from the game experience at all so i consider it ok in my book

Yeah me and my friends actually rate a games glitchiness on a scale of 1 to bethesda. We all love their games but, seriously. and dragon age. I hate that game and had to reload multiple times to get out of a building I was stuck in because it kept playing the same video over and over.

dead space tales of symphonia/vesperia and forza seemed pretty on the ball. except the time I fell through a platform on dead space and died. shooters and sandbox games tend to have alot of glitches.

So have I, on some catwalk somewhere about to die from starvation.

That arm ain't normal... I'm telling you, Flemeth made it out of a twig

And yes... I have heard the PC version looks better.

It does by quite a margin. I was starting to suspect we were on different pages here, talking about stuff the other was only partially knowledgeable of. I couldn't say what the 360 version looks like myself.

It looks, to be honest, pretty shit by today's standards. Especially considering this is the company who just made ME2, one of the best looking games in history.

I'm surprised they allowed that to be.

I mean the 360 can obviously handle a lot more intensive graphics than the ones in DA:O.

I'm guessing they were rushing for a release date and didn't have a Mass Effect-size budg

It would seem the 360 is clearly not always the best platform for big titles.

It's the only one I have though

Dragon Age was originally developed for the PC only. After the coding was done for that (along with the better graphics) the code was changed to fit xbox/PS3. Since most of the time was in the PC development, the consoles suffered a few hits in quality. Such as the graphics.

Yeah, it does feel kind of like a port.

Still, no use complaining, a less pretty Dragon Age is better than no Dragon Age.

uh dude really that isn't that bad, like i said yeah she is pretty skinny, but i have seen worse and i can easily find 50-100 chicks just as skinny as her on my campus tommorrow if i wanted to, you must be in a fatty town somewhere (no offense if you take that personal)

Tbh I cant really flaw L4D 1 or 2.

Its introduced the lost art of teamwork back into gaming. Is just about as fair as any game gets. And is a ball to play most of the time (12 your old dicks aside) and makes some of the best conversations ever if you can get 7 friends online. Ive lost many a match to that simply because Id got stitches laughing and my eyes were watering.
