Bloom looks amazing if done right. Guild wars is a great example. If it's overdone it can be a bit painful, take Oblivion for example. On the flip side if you don't use enough, or don't use it at all, you get a dull, flat, empty, dead looking world …

haha just reading the post and it sounds fake as hell...highly doubt a successful company such as blizzard would sell out...its like saying SoE went out of buisness and acclaim bought it out...
They already have, Bliz…
Guild Wars is fun, and certainly worth the money. It likely wont keep you entertained for too long though, though I do know one person who's played over a year, and still going strong. The addons (Nightfall and Factions) are NOT worth it though.

Ganking is why I never play on PVP servers. It's a waste of my time, completley un-fun, and pointless. What games need to do, is simply make it so that you can't attack people that are a lower level than you (unless they pvp-flag themselves, or some…
If the lack of ads entails no subscription/drasticly reduced subscription fees, I'm fine with it. If they're still going to be charging $15 a month, Webzen can go to hell.
I'm expecting it to be based on the Jade Empire universe. There have been hints of a new Jade Empire game but no specifics. The only known game, other than the Mass Effect series that they are working on is this mystery MMO.
The Jade Empire unive…
When I cancled (Microsoft) I was asked why, but it seemed out of genuine curiosity rather than trying to keep me from stopping. He said he used to play PSO but hadn't tried PSU yet and agreed me when I said it was just plain wierd the way they had d…
I say a couple netspeak terms in real life, but not seriously. Usually more in the way someone quotes a line from a movie or TV show. In my case I just quote flash cartoons ("W-T-F, mate?", "lawl...") I do use the term "owned" fairly requently, but …
Goo article overall. The opening sentence really bothered me though.
Fantasy does NOT, I repeate, NOT mean that the game's setting is based on medival mythology. Yes, a lot popular fantasy entertainment is, but that doesn't mean that it's the defin…
It looks very cool. It's amazing how refreshing the Fantasy Genre can be if somebody opens their mind up enough to use something other than western Europe for the base of the world. I've seen it happen with a few single player RPGs (Jade Empire for …
If that kid had been one of the numerous psychos who kills people because of God or the Bible isntead I doubt that article would have refered to him as a Christian or shown pictures of Jesus getting crucified, etc. in place of the game's box art. I'…

5 million customers doesn't make a great game. Mcdonalds served billions and billions but I wouldn't eat there. What we need is quality, and I don't give a flying fajita what the next big game is. I want to kno…
I only got to play one of the premade builds during the recent preview event, but I have to say they seem pretty cool. The combo system is interesting. Basicly, your attack skills are devided up into different types such as "lead attack," "duel atta…

Dark Age of Camelot might be worth a try, though from my memory the PVE seemed kind of week, mainly just grinding, the quests were limited to "Go kill X Monster and come back to me" or "Take X item to X NPC." There wasn't much c…
I don't really have a problem with advertising on TV or web sites, that's because I get access to them for free. Putting advertisements into something that one has to buy, and then pay a monthly fee for is just sick.
Maybe they were afraid that if they didn't increase their price to what everyone else does people might play their game instead, similar to how people shop at wal mart to save 4 cents. Wait... that makes no sense. It's probably some wierd, stupid is…
