The time limit was sorta important. The game was open to multiple playthroughs, and if you just wanted to mess around, you could ignore the missions and do whatever you wanted. The time added pressure and difficulty, it was actually a really well designed mechanic that was put in place on purpose.
If you didn't like it your a baby gamer. just sayin.
I'm calling it right now, no pressure and the game is going to get really boring really fast. I thought the sandbox mode in dr2: OTR was going to be amazing with all the freedom, but i quickly realized how boring it was with no structure, and little to do excpet kill stuff.
Surprised Microsoft hasn't tried to get Acti/Blizz
COD & WoW as exclusives = Dead Sony

If MS offered 10 billion for Activision, you bet VD would give it to them, but that's a big risk for only two money worth franchises. It would take awhile to make back the buying money. VD would not give over Acti/Bliz. They make too much money from them.
Vivendi already tried to sell actiblizz last year but could't get a buyer.
[QUOTE="Jakandsigz"] Forza makes the Cows go stupid. I doubt he can help it.superclocked
sparse physics with non object cars,
prebaked lighting along with static background and tons of lens flare/HDR to hide up some low graphical assets.
no true context-sensitive damage/physics in Forza 5
and it has prebaked texture scratches on cars
Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong... That all in game footage. Hell, they even went through and laser scanned every little detail at every location that you can race at. And yet cows still try to claim that Turn 10 cut corners... And fast forward this one to see the real time damage...
That lense flare across the bridge.
Jesus its like BF3 amplified by 10000. The whole freaking screen turns white.
The Xbox One will have better cooling, or i'd assume so. The PS4 uses all parts that run hotter than the One, yet it is smaller and slimmer, not allowing for a fan like this:
thats one big fan and heatsink, gigantic in fact. The one will have no heat issues, it seems that was their main concern for design.

Just because the ps4 is smaller doesnt mean it will have poor cooling though. It is pretty apparent that sony is doing the "Efficiency" approach. MS is doing the "Big fan and lots o' space" approach.
I remember this, i want to say it was 2002? That was probably only for very early xboxes. Mine was from launch.

Mine was too.
This is seriously the first time I've heard of any type of "widespread" problem for the original Xbox.
It took place in 2005, MS had to send out a few million new power cords due to a power supply problem. My original Xbox needed to be repaired since it failed before new cords were sent out.
ahh yes that is right. Happened much later than I thought. Could've sworn i got a new cord from MS in 2002/3 though. But perhaps I am mistaken.
