In Live for Speed sometimes I'll get bored and start driving around the course looking for places to test the F1 cars' downforce-

Steel Beasts is a good modern tank sim, but it's quite old (there's a sequal set to be coming soon though).

The sountrack at least gets my approval, they're keeping to the period a lot better than Driv3r (which means they aren't using cell phones, drinking sobe, and driving mid-80s Countachs :p). Looks like they're trying their best to get back to the origional Driver, which is good.

Oh snap I didn't know they're making a Steel Beasts sequal :o Whirlwind of Vietnam/Black Shark LOMAC addon look awesome too. That + Operation Flashpoint sequal makes me happy :D

Wow, why are they making this game? :confused:

There's been a pulse meter to gauge damage since the first game. Heavy armor is more prone to being injured but not killed, light armor isn't. The badguys occasionally used armor which is why the MP5/10 is so handy.

Meh, Rainbow Six has been dead since Rogue Spear :/

Beneath a Steel Sky, the first Deus Ex.

Xbox 360 controller doesn't quite stack up to when Perfect Dark let you use an N64 controller in each hand.

Indeed. The number of people who take l33t seriously could be counted in one hand but the people who take offense to it number in the millions :p

Abstract games aren't so much realistic as just 'realistic' to a different set of rules. What matters isn't how close to reality the game is, it's how many options the 'rules' allows the player without contradicting itself (Tetris is just a blank box and lets you drop blocks wherever you want-...

The game probably needs DX9.

Is the ending really as bad as they say it is?

You're complaining about Need for Speed... being unrealistic? I figured it was pretty much assumed.

Prey's coming out before both :eek:

We won't know until somebody tries :/ In theory, maybe since it's a gamepad with one axis.

Controller is good, wheel is better, DFP is best.

Yarr. If you want the mad tyte drifting then there's nothing really better, see here.

The idea of flipping pancakes with a Revolution controller makes me giddy with glee :D

Harvey Smith was project director for DX2, Spector had nothing to do with it (in a few interviews he said openly he didn't agree with Smith's decisions but trusted him enough to make it work).

Who cares if 900 degrees is too much, it's damn fun. I set my DFP to 720 degrees and haven't found a good sim that doesn't play well with it. DFPs don't last very long though. It's been a year and mine died because the lock limiter came off its track and snapped part of the PCB, now racing...

Meh, the graphics only really get impressive near the end. 'Impressive' gets to be an understatement though.

Buh? http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000753064065/ Very confusing.

I _was_ half expecting him to pull his wig off on national TV, stop his lawsuits, and say "Don't worry, I'm actually a pretty cool guy" and everyone has a good laugh but it looks like he's serious after all :(

Onslaught mod would be here then. I think I read that article, and this is what they were talking about.

I saw one at Gamestop too, Rated M, but then at the bottom it says 'second edition'. No more pr0n :(

Because polycount = graphics 100% of the time always.

Max Payne was 2001, more than 2 years ago. The sequal was meh, there hasn't been much for plots lately. HL2 was ok I guess, not needing cutscenes to tell the story definitely helped. When's Warren Spector going to quit sulking about DX2 and make a good game?

It's a sad day when people are calling 15 hour games the longest ever :( Deus Ex.

Absolutely not. As an Xbox owner I've never found anything interesting outside of PGR2 and Forza that wasn't out on some other platform.

It's also missing 2 CPUs compared to Xbox 360 and 6 CPUs compared to PS3. Just about no part is really Revolution specific either, they're just pulling parts off the shelf instead of flooding ATI with money for some super nobody-else-has-it architecture.

To Steam's credit, enough people got the newest patch fast enough that half the internet's complaining about the same problem on the same day.

That's why you can turn it sideways :p It gets obvious why they made it a box and not something else.

Sega GT 2002 had physics that thought anything over 500hp was undriveable and crippled how far you could turn past 50mph to try to make things easier to drive. Tires were so expensive you needed to win races to buy them, but to win the races you needed good tires- the game's one of the reasons...

It's a light gun with a N64 joystick plugged into it, in theory it should be cool but I'll need to wait until one shows up at best buy to tamper with.

Neat, the KF7 was sucked through a timewarp into the future.

I still remember the Tetris & Dr Mario TV ad :(

Find an old console and buzz around to used games stores and empty them for like $2 a game.
