It was a multi-platform project, designed to run on PS3, XB360 and PC, and id was focusing on making the game equal on all platforms. However, I think they failed on PC.

Indeed. Let's get back on topic.

Let's get random again, shall we? I'll ban anyone who dares to follow a topic from now on. This is not a general chat topic.

I'd rather use a magnum pistol but I guess that ought to do the trick and in a way more interesting fashion as well.

You're right, my mistake. It's 4 am and I'm not sure I'm entirely awake at this point. Thanks for the correction.

I am sure Bill will do a good job though.

I would definitely not use Gordon or any characters from the game, but rather base it on the setting and idea of the game and use those ingredients to craft a unique story.

Upon which he goes into a fetal position and sobs for the remainder of the game? or a violent rampage with a crowbar to those who stole his book?

I agree. No matter how you look at it, Rage is not and will never be any Doom or Wolfenstein. But it looks great, has a massive amount of detail and runs at 60 FPS even on the highest settings for me. I think that's actually impressive. As I said, a review is coming up.

In my opinion it is amazing. Critics are critics. I'm a gamer. Review scores stem mostly from expectations and from the critic's taste. That's why i don't give a shit about reviews. Seriously, I didn't expect a great game. I just expected a shooter with vehicles and rpg elements. And it succeeds in that. I have fun playing it, which is what matters to me. Expect a spoiler-free review from me in the future.

Don't get me wrong, Rage is a blast to play when it finally worked. The game is fine and proves that id are still the best in the league. But the backlash from the launch has already hurt his reputation badly. And yes, he's not a good leader. He's a brilliant programmer though.

RAGE was one of the most expected games this year. Not only was it going to be id's first game in almost an entire decade, it was also going to feature a ton of awesome features, including the new idTech5 engine which features huge megatextures and runs at a whopping 60 FPS. Lo and behold, not only did the game initially ship with more bugs than a bait store, it either ran at 10 FPS with huge texture issues and NPC flickering, or didn't run at all. PC users all over the world have complained so much that only one day after the European launch, Bethesda released a patch to fix these issues. John Carmack, CEO and lead programmer of Rage, called the whole thing a clusterf*** and went on record stating the game was developed for consoles specifically and that "the PC is no longer the leading gaming market". And this is coming from the man who single-handedly turned the PC into a viable and profitable gaming platform to begin with. Thank you, John. You trolled the world of PC users.

Rage. They finally released a patch on Steam that eliminates all the bugs the game had initially and adds some essential video options.

Coke. Just coke.

That's a shame in my opinion, but it's better to be an active member than an inactive mod.

Yeah, the character models in Oblivion are pretty... not pretty.

Just had some pizza with mushrooms and ham.

This thread is for posting music reviews, be it an entire album, a new single, ep or just a song, here's your chance to write your opinion. I'll start off with the latest release from Norwegian electro-rockers Apoptygma Berzerk. Apop's new Black EP vol 2 is an American exclusive that will most likely also attract fans from all over the world as it contains a lot of brand new exclusive tracks that have never been released before, unlike the previous Black EP which only contained previously released tracks from Europe. Apoptygma Berzerk is quite a difficult band to classify. From the beginning in 1991 up until present day, they have consistently been changing their sound, going from dark EBM to synthpop to futurepop to alternative rock, though the band has always made sure to do their very best. And this is also true in the vein of remixes. Each remix on this EP has been brilliantly crafted to change the original alternative rock tracks into hard-hitting dancefloor killers. Other than the awesome remixes, the EP comes with two brand new tracks from the band itself, including a beautiful cover of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart", and in true Apop vein, the cover might just be slightly better than the original, as it is obviously done with a ton of respect and love for the source material, giving it the treatment it deserves. The other new gem is the track "Adrift", an 8bit influenced melancholic song about isolation. Is this EP a nod to future releases from the band? It could be, and it could not, but that is the magic about Apoptygma Berzerk, never knowing what to expect. As a bonus to those spoiled brats with a smartphone, there's a scanable QR code on the cover art.
