Rage actually looks pretty amazing. Why didn't it get more attention?

Bad launch, Texture pop in was a serious problem for 1/2 the player base.
since it patched it is much much better, but you only get 1 chance to make a first impression and all that.

It still does have some comically bad textures in places, even then I think it is very nice looking (so long as you don't look too close)

Yes, Rage looks it's best from a distance. If you get in close, you quickly notice how low-res many textures are. Before Rage came out, Carmack talked about possibly releasing a high-res texture pack for the PC, if Bethesda would give their blessing. Since then, there has been nothing, which is disappointing.

I was wondering when the dick shots were going to show up.

MY DIIIIIIIIICK

baudattitude

I wanted to test linking from my Steam library, also I've been playing a lot of Blades of Time and it has some neat environments that I wanted to share considering it's only sold about 5 copies worldwide.






Pretty snow. Also worth noting; the main character starts off in an almost comically skimpy outfit at the beginning and eventually winds up in something that's nearly practical.

baudattitude

Yar's Revenge, because I am an amazing sucker for floating massive industrial city dome things.



Also because they decided to throw in some nostalgia nods to us old people.

Does it play more like Gods of War or Bayonetta? Doesn't look too bad, and it's got a Steam demo, so I might give it a whirl when I get home next week.

It's X Blades 2. Same company, even same character as X Blades. A game which was merely passable as an action game.

Neither, really. It's more like a modern take on Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight.

It's got issues, but it's pretty fun regardless.

I thought it was pretty much a remake of X-Blades 1.

Holy shit.... did that bullet hit one guy, fragment, then destroy that other dude's face?

I saw it said "two for one" at the end.

peterdevore

For some reason all the steam cloud screenshots won't show up for me. Am I the only one?

It doesn't have the crazy running-on-walls-while-cities-explode thing Bayonetta had going on, and it doesn't have the massive set pieces like a God of War. It's a pretty linear hack and slash with the hook being that your character gets the ability to rewind time, then relive events again going forward while a double replays what you did the first time. So for example, you can be shooting a boss, then rewind, then shoot the boss again while your copy from 30 seconds ago does the same, then rinse and repeat until there's 5 or 6 of you shooting at him and he's chasing echoes of you from the past instead of trying to kill the current you.

Downsides are, well, the main character likes to comment on every little thing she sees and in the most annoying way possible and the story is overly ambitious. It's a solid 6 or 7 out of 10 game, it isn't going to set the world on fire but it's fun.

I've never even heard of Blades of Time, but it does look pretty awesome.

Yes, exactly.

Jump to 58:30 and watch.

It was the most amazing thing.

Playing Max Payne 2 again in anticipation of 3, and man it still looks good after all these years

Another screenie of my guy picking a fight with a dragon in Skyrim!

Gaslight

Not actually a copy of Dirtyboy's shot above.



Just may as well be. Same guy, standing in the same spot. Weird? Perhaps this demo is rigged to produce automatic nutshots! But does the full game live up to the promise of de-ballification by bullet? :rotate: I need the truth about these terrific target testicle tableaus!

Annnnnd last bunch of Bioshock 2.

Wouldn't usually take this many but the style is so great. Fantastic game too, really should have played it earlier.

edit: spoiler for bunch of images.

Spoiler:

Something is really off about the shadows in Bioshock 2. They never look dark enough.

Reminds me of the Dark Engine (engine for Thief 1 and 2 as well as System Shock 2).

wakkawa

Looking at those bioshock shots there aren't any shadows. Everything is ambient.

jkruse05

How about some Marathon at 1920x1080?




Bask in the unrivaled graphical glory!

Spoit

Those are actually surprisingly crisp textures. I've seen modern games that were more pixilated

tsmvengy

Yeah the sprites don't look so hot but those walls have to be a mod right?

jkruse05

The latest Aleph One version has an HD texture update build in. Environments only though. The A1 version of Marathon 2 actually has the XBLA textures built in.

This water tastes funny.

I like playing with the android mod, where delicious radiation makes life beautiful.

I thought it a pretty neat pose and only later noticed the arrow.

TychoCelchuuu

So as I've mentioned before, my video card died a few months ago, and instead of replacing it I've just been playing old stuff. Lately, System Shock:


I don't feel very welcome here.


The decor in this office is very... damaged looking.


This is a giant x-ray machine that right now only serves to irradiate me.


Something tells me SHODAN is a few bits short of a byte.


I AM A COMPUTER HACKER


I'M HACKING THE GIBSON AND GLEAMING THE CYBERCUBE WHILE TRIPPING THE LIGHT FANTASTIC


The game is so tense that I typically forget to take screenshots. This is on a comparatively quiet part of the station where I remembered to snap a postcard photo for the folks back home.

Roshin

You know, I used to be a monster like you, but then I took an arrow to the face and, well...


Suddenly, a wild bear appears out of nowhere!

HAY DAD HOW YOU DOING?

Been playing the demo for Ridge Racer Unbounded, a game which seems to have gone largely unnoticed in these parts. It's an obvious console part, but on my system it looks and runs pretty damn well, and it seems like a pretty fun arcade racer even without the much-ballyhooed track editor.

mere_immortal

Looks kinda like Split/Second, which is fantastic.

baudattitude

Those are pretty shiny screens. Have I been under a rock, or is this the first time they've done a PC Ridge Racer? Always figured it was consoles only.

Gaslight

It is the first PC Ridge Racer I am aware of.

Yes, Blur and Split/Second (though I've played the former but not the latter) are the games I would most liken it to.

Darlan

Arkham City! Everyone loves Batman, even if they don't realize it yet. I title this one "Mmmmpf in the Dark"

Dat ascension.

Never forget to tie your shoes if you are a criminal in Gotham.

See? Catwoman regularly checks her boots.

No hay barrel? No problem!

A really, really bad day for Two Face.

Well, this shot is just obligatory with anything Batman related. Really. It's not up to me.

SightTDW

Dammit Arkham City is pretty. I cannot wait til I get a new video card down the line. I'm saving New Game + for being able to turn up all the fancy effects.

Cross posting from the minecraft thread

So I got this world in Mystcraft, this is it fully loaded too, for the most part. Spawned on a 1x1 block.
