I know I'll go the RockStar's headquarters sit in front of their door and start screaming and crying like a 3year who want its candy. Until they start making it for PC. :)) :)) :))

For a game console they don't do those frekin increase in requirements. For example: You want PC that could play game, but do not have the money to afford a good one. So you went with a budget PC which has a: Intel Celeron D 335(2.8GHz) processor 256MB ram 40Gb[JB] HD 64MB VGA card Yadi Yadi Yada... you bought game: Uraturf* Req for Uraturf Intel Celeron D 320(2.4GHz) processor AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 128MB ram 64MB VGa card. Ok your PC passes all the requirements to play the game. After 6 months, Uraturf2* came out Req for Uraturf2 Intel Celeron D 335 (2.8GHz) processor AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 1GB of ram 256MB Vga card. You see in order for you to play the game Uraturf2 you must spend more money to upgrade components so that you can play Uraturf2. (Note: Uraturf and Uraturf2 does not exist, so don't even bother going to a game store and ask do you have the game Uraturf or Uraturf2)! That's how most PC games are, all they want you to do is spend! spend! spend! HAHAHHAHAHA!!!!Arghhh!!!!! :#@ :#@ :#@

That Shit Touge ^____________^;; Joined: Jun '03 Posts: 3,838	I think in terms of graphics over the top effects are not what makes a game look good, for example I think Vietcong looks fantastic graphically and doesn't have any stupid new effects, it just has a consistent, well-made, gritty look which runs very smoothly. If you look at Doom 3 and ignore the lighting effects it looks piss poor to be honest, the textures on some of the stuff look flat as a fart and the level modelling looks pretty shocking. For good graphics in a 3D game, things need to be modelled and textured well. With a bit of effort something as old as Quake can look absolutely fantastic. Also some of the effects actually annoy me like over the top lens flares, overly shiny and reflecty water, bump mapping usually ends up making surfaces look a bit too odd for my liking as well. Don't get me wrong I'm all for advances but why should I have to spend a few hundred for a new graphics card just so it can do some extra shading on the dust clouds? ------------------ STORY OF MY LIFE: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
