    Hellgate was alright and there were some things that worked very well. However a lot of the mechanics which are supposed to make games fun never really materialized or were severely underdepveloped. Like with so many games these days, excluding LAN options was a huge mistake.

    I really like Giantbomb but there are too many technical errors with the site still. I too enjoy 1UP above the rest, but the community always kind of felt...stale. I don't know though, I've had an account there for awhile.

    It wouldn't surprise me if movie studios buying development studios became standard. The game industry generates a lot of revenues, of course the hollywood types want in. What better way to do that then buying up popular developers and their IP's?

    Replica23 just commented on Brad's News - EA's New-IP Gambit Is Paying Off
    I think Dead Space is pretty self-contained and hope if they have to make a sequel it's done right. Bad Company doesn't surprise me, but both Mirror's Edge and Army of Two sure do. I guess they're pretty happy with ME and AoT had a lot of great ideas that studio just couldn't close on. I think more time and maybe some more coin would go along way to making AoT a great series.

If you choose to ingore these games as legitiamte exclusives then your full of ingorance. Seriously though, cut Halo and Gears of War out of the MS picture and the platform is largely reliant on 3rd party titles, which (SURPRISE), ...

    Replica23 just commented on Brad's News - Ready to Buy Starcraft II Three Times?
    @Knives: I did read, maybe I should have taken more care in separating my thoughts from what Pardo said to what I expect to happen. What Pardo said was. "It's a separate product. Look at the next two as expansion packs, but will have the feel of stand alone products." He doesn't indicate they are expansions, nor does he say they are stand alone products. What's the middle ground in that statement? A stand alone expansion, much like those that have been done for Dawn of War, Company of Heroes and Crysis. I could be wrong, and I hope more ...

    Replica23 just commented on Brad's News - Ready to Buy Starcraft II Three Times?
    "Maybe it's a full-priced initial entry and then a couple of $20 add-ons to round out the experience."
    It's not though. Joystiq has a quote up from Rob Pardo saying all three are separate products. They'll be stand alone releases much like Dawn of War: Dark Crusade or Crysis: Warhead. The three questions are:
    1. How much content will be included in each release?
    2. Will you be able to play all three races online with only buying one of the products.3. How much will Blizzard charge for each?
    If each release is priced at $30 that would be alright ...

    Replica23 added a review of Crysis Warhead
    Better than the original?
    No, but not worse either, just different. Crysis Warhead is an interesting take on something I would group with episodic gaming. It's true Warhead doesn't pickup where the original game left, but it does compliment the original in a strange way. In Warhead you play as Psycho, who (if you played the first game) you'll remember was one of 4 other team members that drop onto the island at the beginning. Shortly after the opening of Crysis two of your team members are killed, while you and the remaining two split up to push forward. Warhead begins about halfway through ...

    Replica23 added a review of Echochrome
    Something about echochrome prevents it from feeling like a game.
    What is there to say about echochrome? It's very straight forward and pretty much all the previews and descriptions available are very accurate to what you'll get with the final product. Is it possible for a game to be so straight forward it does not feel rewarding, thus filling such a game with empty challenges? I think the answer is yes. While echochrome is a good game something about it feels empty; and no the simple visuals are not it.

    There is a horde of puzzles to solve your way through, and successfully completing one will unlock the next ...

    Replica23 added a review of 1942: Joint Strike
    1942: Joint Strike is an exercise in missed opportunity.
    For many a high-definition remake of a classic game from childhood is the perfect nostalgia trip. Developers can shore up the stuff less than class lost to memory that plague such revisits, keeping the pristine thoughts from back in the day intact. Sadly a revisit to the 1942 franchise hasn't been quite so fortunate.

    Joint Strike is by no means a terrible game, or even mediocre, it's really just lacking something that could have made it a lot better. Quite honestly, elements that limit Joint Strike's potential remain elusive. So much so they haunt most of the experience. Luckily ...

    Replica23 added a review of PixelJunk Eden
    A bittersweet experience that could have been awesome.
    PixelJunk Eden is an oxymoron if I ever saw one. Everything about Eden hammers onto you, scribbling across the surface of your eyes and penetrating the depths of your ears to produce an experience both lucid and surreal. So what the hell happened? Eden is clearly a game about exploration, one that eagerly illustrates relaxation. However the entire concept behind Eden is thrown right out the window because a design choice was made to include a timer. A timer in a exploration game (a platformer no less) emphasizing calm. Truth be, Eden is an exercise in controller twisting, teeth grinding, ...

    Replica23 just commented on the GiantBomb editorial review for: Crysis Warhead
    I really enjoyed Warhead, but I would have rather seen it as a $15-20 episodic pack than $30 stand-alone game.

    Replica23 just commented on the news article: Burnout Paradise Trophy Update Now Available
    At first I was angry (mostly because Criterion continued to insist trophies would be retroactive), and I'm still disappointed, but the trophies really aren't hard. You can get a bronze just for competing (not completing) an online Stunt Run or Marked Man. Quick and easy. The only real bad part is needing to do the licenses over again if you want the trophies for them. Those are the only time consuming ones and the rest can be done fairly quick.
    Even so I began to complete each car license again and notice the number of events required to obtain the ...

    Replica23 just created a new forum post on the topic Trophy Patch (1.50) is now live, oh, and not Retroactive in the Burnout Paradise
    You should be able to back-up your current save to a storage device (like a memory card), delete and create a new game to complete all the trophies, then delete that one and copy your old save back. The trophies themselves aren't thay difficult and most can be done in one evening. It's the license trophies which are time consuming.
    It would be nice if the update went live on the west coast already.
