This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

Man, seeing all of these reviews makes me a bit worried. I was actually excited about Haze, and although I'm a huge Halo fan, I was hoping this was another shooter that I could get into.


Well, after playing the demo and noticing that all the faults I disliked the game for are the major elements the critics picked on as well has put me off purchasing this game. I may rent it later on down the line for multiplayer reasons but otherwise I'm really not going to shell out 40 bucks for this. Which is a shame because I wasn't expecting Free Radical to mess up as they did here."

Dumbest idea ever. If I want to fight with these guys I'll pick up Battlefront 2.


I think everyone recognizes it is a dumb idea but it's quite there simply to boost sales of this game and advertise and develop more interest in the Force Unleashed game that comes out later this year. "

Console or PC?

But lets take a look at this year: except for Spore and Fallout 3, some RTS and MMORPG I can't think of any game that's going to be released for pc.


Fallout 3 is being released for consoles."

So it would be a waste of money to me to buy a game when the sequel is pretty much announced and that it is known that it will contain the content of the first game too.


Got me there. Not much I can say to that. I'll probably pick this up but I think for now I'll just stick to playing my friend's copy. Haven't got much money at the moment and you have a fair point there."

On the clothing: I don't mind them lessening in coverage. I just wish I had more force feedback with the controllers. ZING!


If only Darth Vader/Yoda could use the Force for disrobing too.

I kid, I kid.

Moving back onto another topic.

I cannot wait to mow down everyone with Siegfried again. Getting strangely excited for this game."

SC4 looks great, really good graphics, interesting characters... I think there was Darth Vader and Yoda(?) in the pics I saw, i hope it would be more like SC2 though... I didn't really like SC3 much, there seems to be less and less clothing on the characters? Especially the females...


I quite liked SC3, the only reason I don't have it now is due to that terrible memory card wipe issue which came with it. I liked most of the new stuff apart from the changes to the single player, it's a promising concept but it fell through.

As for less clothing on females... well... >_> there's even less now. Fanservice is powerful."

Your desired living environment

4 months 1 week ago

"For me, I think... my ideal living environment would have to be near a city of some sort. No matter where I go or how much I may complain about city life, there's something more exciting about the hustle and bustle of a busy city. It adds that extra layer of life onto things for me anyway.

I'd like to live somewhere cut off from the city though as the hustle and bustle as I mentioned before is not something I like to hear from inside my own house. When I get home, I actually want it to feel peaceful and quiet. Plus I find I'm more at peace at a house surrounded by greenery and more of the simple things nature contains. As you can tell, I'm a nature lover."

Of Cars, Beer and Women

4 months 1 week ago

"As Spudsy said, sex sells. As an ex-media student, I had to look throughly into advertising and that's what it simply boils down. The majority of car-owners and car-collecters are male and the concept of having a 'sexy' car is usually a male thing. Why? Because a 'sexy' car for a man means attracting 'sexy' women. Idiotic but true. Women buy cars for different, probably more logical reasons but most men do buy cars for the sake of how they look as a person.

So getting back to the point, if there's an advertisement on TV showing a half-naked bikini-clad woman all over a slick and shiny car, the first thing it's doing is getting a man to go quite simply:

"Must buy (9+_+) emoticon"

And that ideology is bringing the money in for the car companies because it's built interest and gaining money by simply throwing an attractive woman on top of it. If you were to throw a man in the same kind of light then you're repulsing most of the male gender and losing a lot of interest and if you were to even show a stylish man in a business suit, sunglasses, etc. then you're illuminating the image 'RICH PEOPLE ONLY' and again, alienating some to most working class males. Throw a woman on it and it's accessible for everyone.

As Arthur said before, women are a symbol of pleasure in society. Sad but true."

Talking of the new trailer, has anyone seen it? D: Looks amazing, I'm buying this game the day it comes out. I love me some souls and swords.

What Makes A Good Video Game

Gameplay. Obviously. LOL Then graphics and then storyline. For example, advance wars doesn't really have good graphics and a very lame predictable storyline but the gameplay is so fun.


This is somewhat true, I'd say. A game like Resident Evil 4 would back you up there. Gameplay was superb and handled nicely, graphics were excellent for its time but storyline was horrendous even for RE standards and I'm a RE fanboy but I still don't think it's enough to make it a 'great' or 'excellent' video game because like I said before, it's still that matter of style and substance mixing together nicely. In RE4's case, it was all style and little to no substance. Here's hoping Resident Evil 5 is a good game.

And in an off-topicly statement, has anyone played Advance Wars: Days of Ruin? You just reminded me of it and they say the story is meant to be a bit better which sounds intriguing."

Not sure if it was aked before. but is dmc 4 anything like dmc 3? dantes brother vergil was badass^^ can you play him in dmc 4 too?


DMC4 is very much like DMC3 in terms of gameplay, it just lacks the different styles combat which only Dante has when you get to play with him. Nero has the Devil Arm which is just a God-modded hookshot really.

Dante's brother Vergil is not in the game and is not playable. There are references though."

But I'm not even sure I'm going to buy those since I pretty much had it with that gameplay. I had/have Budokai 1, 2 and 3 and Budokai Tenkaichi 2 and to buy those games again with only better graphics... would be a real waste of money tbo.


I can see your point there but there are new elements to the fighting system and if you play it long enough to master the fine points it really is a different game to Budokai and Budokai Tenkaichi. Not VASTLY different but different. Plus next gen DBZ is pretty, MUST BUY!

I say must buy but I'm still deliberating on buying it straight away myself. =P"

Someone has to pay the troops, for the weapons, the vehicles, the rations, etc.


You said state a war that was started over money. I gave you two, not quite sure what you're talking about here.

There's a reason that there's the saying: Time is money, and money is time.


I haven't really got a clue what you're talking about there, it doesn't really seem connected at all to my post. Unless you were agreeing with it with that quote or something?"

MONEY = everything???

I'm not an artist, or do I care for it, so commenting on it would waste both of our time.


That's not true at all. These would say quite differently. You can't say you don't care for art when you spend a clear amount of critiquing them.


Spudsy
Name me one.


Both Gulf Wars. Even if the reason was that they supposedly went to war was officially 'weapons of mass destruction', I think the whole world recognizes that it was over oil that Saddam had.


Spudsy

You know, stating this had made me think of a point. That point is that, this is called 'cliche' for a reason, cliches often being fallacious in nature, and a sort of fallacy most people conjure together to help them believe a false truth.


But it isn't a false truth. It's a cliche, yes but it's not false at all. If a millionaire came up to me right now and said "Hey buddy, here's $1000, want to come over to my house so I can get some stuff off my chest about my day." then sure, I'd go and listen to him. Does it mean I'm going to care and respond from the heart? God no, I'm waiting for him to wind down whilst thinking about what I'm going to buy from his money which he's basically giving away. Same with love, you're not buying their care, loyalty or devotion, you're buying their time until something better comes along.

In this scenario, cliches are right. You cannot buy 'true' friendship or love."
