at 1080p? LMAO. It can't play the game in its native resolution? The Retina display is way over 1080p. That's not maxing it out.

That doesn't really matter. When you get to those uber high resolutions, you don't really see a difference. No point in trying to hit the highest res possible.

Yeah, In person, it looks pretty damn good. I am not saying that the Retina Macbook Pro is the best laptop for gamers, but for somebody like me who uses it for other uses only available on OS X, the ability to game is a great bonus.

Yeah, I know that they are not economically worth it for gaming alone, but if you have other uses for the Mac OS, gaming over boot camp is just a bonus.

And Guess what? It can max skyrim at 1080P! With the 650m!

Found this video on youtube showcasing it. I also tried it myself, and found consistent results.

Is it possible to use an xbox 360 slim without a hard drive? I am not speaking of the 4gb model - I mean the 250gb model with the HDD removed.

Are you guys more excited for the upcoming GoW? Or the upcoming GoW?

Personally, the next GoW has me pretty hyped. GoW is total trash, though.

I have been enjoying the crap out of Halo Reach recently. Reach was my first 360 game, and my first real online shooter title.

The game is great - but - I find that no matter what I do, I always go .7 or .6.

How Can I improve my KD/R? I want to learn how to more easily go positive.

Why does Ubisoft need to employ 850 people to create an open world game in the Assassin's creed series, but Rocksteady can accomplish the same feat in the same time-span with a mere 110 employees? Seems like Ubisoft lacks talent, but simplys finsihes the job with a ghiant workforce

What you're talking about doesn't happen to me very often.

9 unfinished games out of a total of 34 is just not acceptable. I will probably shelf UC3 multiplayer if this problem continues.

Been happily gaming for several years in great games like GeOW3, Halo Reach, Halo 3, Forza 4, and Battlefield Bad Company 2 for several years in my xbox 360. Rarely do i have a connection issue.

Began playing UC3 a few days ago, and atleast one in four matches, I return to the menu unexpecedtly and it says "you have left the game" Even though I have done no such thing. This is especially frustrating when I lose out on $25k+ Cash/EXP from a 25+ minute long game of co-op arena.

Get your game together Sony. UC3 Multiplayer is quite brilliant, but i simply turn off my PS3 for the day when I lose out on 25 minutes worth of gameplay, and that happens quite often.

This was not about sony not making games. Sony makes games. The problem is, they use their B-list devs instead of their A-list devs like nintendo does.

Nintendo takes an AAA game, and gives it an AAA studio.

Sony takes its AAA games, and then gives it some old second-tier studio that never does justice to the original games. This was common with the PSP and is becoming increasingly common with the Vita.

UC: Golden Abyss - SCE BEND instead of Naughty Dog

Resistance: Burning Skies: Nihilistic software instead of Insomiac.

SCE Bend is good, but not as great as Naughty Dog. Of course the games will dissapoint.

Nihilistic flat out sucks, they haven't had a game score above 70 on metacritic, in ten years.

Meanwhile, Nintendo gives their AAA teams a 3DS Dev kit, and in return, we get AAA games.

Uncharted dissapointed? It's a pretty good game if you ask me - have you even tried it? If anything the Uncharted games have come to a halt and needs to put on a pause. The biggest issue is IMO the lack of any kind of MP. And why don't we wait and see how well Resistance does? The PSP version did afterall do well. I do, however, agree. It's clear that the PS Vita is a second priority to Sony and that's a real shame. Hopefully they'll show some love at E3.

It was good, but up to Naughty Dog's standards? No. The controls were a bit wonky and it lagged it a bit with multiple enemies on screen. Story wasn't amazing either, like all UC stories have been. And Resistance PSP was made by SCE Bend. I am sorry, but the last two games made by Nihilistic software have ranged from 50-55 on metacritic. I do not think we will see AAA here.
