I would rather shit down a hosepipe and feed it straight into my own mouth than run round shooting aliens that dont actually seem to move as they move, make stupid sounds and bleed blue.

Halo makes me :mad:

Looks like all techy coding nonsense and not about the actual gameplay :mad:
 
I think the tech geeks are getting major hard ons for this game because it really will be a marvel of coding. But I want multiplayer demos damn it :mad: :D
 
Can I shoot people in the face? Can I at least attempt to fly a helicopter? Can I sit on top of a mountain taking pot shots at losers in the valley below me? Can I mine a road, go off and shoot somebody in the face and then get a message telling me I blew up a tank and got a double kill all whilst killing somebody else in the face?

That is what these seminars should be about.

Does that mean it's optimised to run well even on lower spec computers? Mine's a good couple of years old now, am wondering whether an upgrade will be required before getting this...

This is what ALL seminars should be about. :D
 
BF Vietnam is still really popular online funny enough.

Not tried BC yet, been out of the fps scene for a while due to WoW.

I'd say BF vietnam was my favourite online game ever so I hope it's good.

Battlefield Vietnam is a great game.

Well, one would hope so as BF2 was a notorious resource hog. I'm XBox only these days though. If I still had a PC though I would probably get a new GFX card anyway.


Also, check this vid out. I've always thought th BF games had incredible sound :)

FIRST GAMEPLAY VID AND NEW SCREENSHOT!!!

It looks AMAZING! Well, graphically at least. Those sunbeams as they enter that room and the lighting in general. Oh and the weapons sounds are meaty as hell. Just imagine seeing that on a proper TV and with proper sound.

I think I'm in love :D
 
I watched it on my HD monitor at work with the 720p setting. It was glorious. If I did not have to fly to South East Asia for a wedding in July I would totally be getting me a HD TV to replace my trusty and reliable 22" widescreen CRT telly :D

Hopefully though by game release I will have enough stashed.

Heh yeah when I got my hd tv I was gob smacked at the difference it made in terms of crispness of image. :D
 
Kav bought a HDMI cable for his box the other day. He says the headset is made in a way where it blocks the HDMI port though so you have to buy another adaptor to have the headset and HDMI cable in. Bastards!

Ah that's a bit lame...man I hope the compass makes it into multiplayer, being able to shout 'tangos, incoming, south east' would be very useful. :D

Tell him to get a screwdriver and break open the plastic case which holds the headset cables. This way you can fit both the HDMI and headphone cables to the back of the 360.

I had to do this to get my X11's working.

Maplin do one thats slim or you could buy the official MS HDMI kit which is an audio out adapter with a thin ended lead for about £18
 
I shat my pants when I saw that yesterday. Better quality version coming out on the 16th!

Edit: That one is down, here is another!

 
This game is going to be carnage on a whole new level. Thrown from the pick up truck, helicopter crushed by huge building, earthquake, dragging people to safety...and that's only from one tiny portion of single player!! Also confirmed that single player will have co-op.

I don't think we will be seeing any multi-player previews until nearer release. Say August/September.
