There’s something wrong about talking too soon, or hailing your own work that’s not yet proven as beyond and above anything, anywhere. It’s called bragging, and people hate it. It changes their perception about you instantly, and suddenly, like an innate human instinct, they want you to make a mistake.
If you live up to your boasting, then good for you – they’ll dance and laugh with you. But if you fail, they’ll crucify you and feed your body to pigeons. In the eyes of many PS3 owners, Crytek’s let them down, and in their minds, the developer and its game could as well go to hell.
It’s the weekend, friends, what’s happening in your part of town?
I’m talking about Crytek and its incessant boasting about Crysis 2. The company said the PS3 version of the game would be the best. Then it said both console versions would look identical, and then they uttered such travesties like saying they’d maxed out both Sony and Microsoft’s machines.
Crysis 2 was supposed to be the best looking game consoles had ever seen, but judging from the comparisons that came pouring as soon as the PS3 MP demo went up, it was obvious isn’t. Upon that, gamers couldn’t get into a match and the graphics on 360 outstripped PS3. It was a massive mess as PS3 owners the world over started venting their disgust.
EA’s response? Pull the game from PSN in order to save face and some sales, as the game releases next Tuesday. We want to hear your thoughts on that situation.
As for the weekend, I’ll not be doing much, however I’ll get in some Killzone 3 MP action. Any of you guys could join me.
Food sale early tomorrow morning in an effort to raise funds for my local church’s annual easter camp out. After that my family and I will gather to have a good time at my mother’s. Sunday’s church, of course. Monday back to work.
Boring, I know. How about your weekend? Any plans? Share it!
any plans well tomorrow me and one other guy will try to get to round 50 on ascension (we got to 40 on keno a couple weeks back) ill probably still get the damn game for my damn birthday on the 27th hope its better than the demo was for the 10 seconds i played it
Your birthday is the 27th of March? Mine’s on the 30th of March! Cool…. Also, you’re still getting it?
linglingjr, did you ever give me your PSN ID? If so, I’m sorry, can’t seem to remember.. Can you dash it my way again please? Thanks.
my father just got back from china so will be going out for dinner tonight.
dont really want to, its been raining cats and dogs my god ive never seen so much water in my life!
almost ready to get the ARK out!
started motorstorm apocalypse yesterday.
i dunno, its just no where near as fun as the previous 2 games.
split second is so similar, and a hell of allot more fun!
the controls seem really weird too, the first 2 were distinct arcade controls which they should be for this type of game, but this is kinda in between of a arcade and sim.
just does not suit the game at all!
Oh you’ve got Motorstorm Apocalypse? Cool. And it’s still raining up there? Wow….thought the torrential rains had waned…
i wish, ive never seen this much water in my entire life!
soon i wont be driving to work, ill be swimming to work!
Not cool. Not cool at all….But hey, look at the good folks in Japan, things could have been much worst….btw, your dad works in China?
my user name is the same as it is on here if you send a friend request please say ernice from GT so i wont think its random and delete you lol
Okay cool…
no, they signed a new contract over a few months ago so his company needed to send a few people over to show them how to build the machines.
What machines?
there building giant chemical pumps, at a cost of 12M a pop!
building 30 of them, and they have never made them before tis why he had to go over and teach and supervise.
Understood. Cool job.
