100 Day Long…….Drift

Just under 100 days to go till release and GTPlanet is following the road to release very closely.  The game is already sitting in the top 50 for both the regular ($60) and collectors editions ($100) of the game.  I am going with the regular edition and using the $40 I saved towards some DLC.  How about you?

The Hot Console Generation

 

Digital Foundry scored an interview with engineer, Darren Thickbroom to get to the bottom of why this last round of consoles have made so many strides but have fail rates much higher then we have seen in previous generations.  The culprit?  You guessed it,  fiery heat shot from the devils red dick!  OK so maybe Darren had a more professional way of saying it.

 

It’s just the general design and the heat factor,” he says. “Everything’s combined into such a small space, the heatsinks on the GPU are relatively small, there’s a lot of heat to dissipate and it can’t do it. The trapped heat warps the boards and that’s what causes the problems over a long-term period.

Battlefield Pushback

 

 

I was 2 weeks late in downloading the Battlefield 1943 demo and to the chagrin of Electronic Arts it didn’t prompt me to pay for the full game.  What it did in fact was drive me right back into Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.  Being able to hop into a tank, jeep or plane was pretty cool but the rest of the game fell flat.  In talking with other friends who didn’t so much care for Battlefield or COD4 it pushed them back into their shooter(s) of choice which was usually Killzone2 or Warhawk.  I guess it reminded many of us that took a break from FPS shooter games that we don’t have to wait for Modern Warfare2 to get back into shooters as there are many out there to choose from with thriving online environments.  For now I am re-exploring COD4 and Killzone2 taking pleasure in fragging all the shit talkers.
