  skate

  my first thought was "EA?  Make a skateboarding game?".  but it looks really cool actually.  it is much more focused on skateboarding than TH.  and instead of pressing buttons for tricks and ollies, you hold down the right analog and tap it up in the way that u want so it changes the trick.   and no trick is ever the same cuz speed, angle, and how you handle the analog change the trick.  maybe this will make skateboarding on the tv fun again.

  Resistance!!!!!!!!

  i got my psm a few days ago and before reading it i was not all that excited about resistance: fall of man. i mean it looked like a good game and all but i wasn't particularly stunned.

  after reading the 13 page preview and seeing the full page screenshots that were crystal clear i was psyked. i litterally got chills when i stopped and thought about playing the game.

  this is going to be a halo killer!!! (not that i dislike halo) people will be having resistance parties insead! if this game doesn't live up to my expectations i will be very surprised and let down.

  i now have a solid incentive to buy a ps3. there will be 40 player online deathmatches as well as many other game modes. the single player campaign seems to have a deep story and will have scare elements. (like doom 3 with dark hallways and such)

  this game will rock!

  the uncanny valley

  i thought that was a very interesting article.  its one of those things you read and think "huh, that makes sense."

  if this is true i wonder if low quality game developers will stray away from creating human-like characters next-gen.  even skilled developers can screw up on humans becuase the closer you come to exactly human-like the more each little wrong detail can be spotted .

  i guess if you didn't read the article this might not make sense but i felt like writing about it.
