I mean you are technically right since you're banned but you use to.
Also use to have your same avatar before you changed it on here.. suppose that's just a coincidence also?Actually never posted there before, same name but I've only lurked there since I can't register because all my email is through Gmail and I can't get approved.
Doubt you'll believe that but I could care less.
I was referring to this guy. Not you Kazeno.No he is talking to me. He doesn't understand that's what he and his butt buddy rippn sound like when they say shit like this. It happens once a month. Like a drug addict shooting up, they come in once or twice a month to raise hell. This time with all this apparent proof that we can't see. I made that last post to show you what you sound like.
Sure thing. Though i'm pretty sure the only one trolling here is you. You started before anyone even had an opinion on the Unity thing.Its early in the month, so I guess we will see you again towards the end of October for more trolling.
Never said it was a coincidence that the same was the same but I can't see the avatar to confirm your report. Either way I have nothing to prove to you. It isn't my account and never was, but it's nice to see you go so far off topic from the original argument to prove a meaningless point. It only reinforces the fact that your original argument was full of hot air and you can't back it up.Also use to have your same avatar before you changed it on here.. suppose that's just a coincidence also?
I thought you were a troll several pages ago but I figured you'd tire yourself out. So much for that.hahaha I'm the troll? Wow man you have got to be one of the most delusional cags ever.
No point needs to be made to you, in another thread you made the exact same comments I did, then in this thread you argue opposite them, you are then caught and try and brush it under the rug with some nonsensical excuses. You are a hypocrite and because of this any points you have made are invalid, you have been caught, you are a joke, and there really isn't anything else that needs to be said to you.Never said it was a coincidence that the same was the same but I can't see the avatar to confirm your report.

when did you become a mod?I got reports from 3 of you guys reporting each other. I'm not going to do anything since this is a personal matter (use ignore) but another mod could take action. So I'm warning you all to stop.
They don't stack on top of each other but I think you can use them again and again once one expires. I'm not 100% sure though since I haven't done it before.Am I stupid for buying 8 1wk xbl codes for $6 if they expire on oct 30th and i'm getting my x1 on the 28th? Do they stack or not?
I honestly don't expect halo to look so much better then before unless they completely remake the games from the ground up which isn't the case. I'm still getting it because it's a great deal. And the cards I got apparently expire on the 30th. So stupid me wasting $6.They don't stack on top of each other but I think you can use them again and again once one expires.

In other news Halo Master Chief Collection details have started coming out. Halo 2 Anniversary is the only game not in 1080p (It uses a weird resolution of 1328/1080 with 60fps). 343 Posted an explanation why and it sounds like the main reason is because it runs two games engines at once since it allows you to switch to the older original graphics on the fly. Every other game in the collection however will be 1080p/60fps.
Here's the original statement in case you want to read it.
For those of you who like to start message board wars over such things, let's get this out of the way: Halo 2's campaign isn't quiiiiiiite 1080p. Due to running the original graphics engine and the Xbox One-ified Anniversary graphics engine simultaneously and the original Halo 2 audio engine and remastered Anniversary audio engine simultaneously, Halo 2's campaign does run at 60fps but, resolution-wise, clocks in at 1328x1080. Here's an explanation from 343 executive producer Dan Ayoub: “During development we were really pleased with the way the engine and buffer allowed us to switch instantly between classic and Anniversary engines that are running simultaneously – however that, as you might expect, put a hit on resolution. The campaign of Halo 2: Anniversary looked fantastic at 720p with the level of detail and clarity it gave us, but like every other aspect of the game and tech, we wanted to push it further. So in the last weeks of development, our teams were able to meet a stretch goal and the campaign of Halo 2: Anniversary now runs 60 fps at a crisp resolution of 1328x1080, which is a significant and meaningful boost in image quality we think fans are really going to appreciate. All of the other games across the entire package of The Master Chief Collection run 60 fps at 1920x1080 native.”
Only the campaign and the 6 remade maps I believe.^ Halo 2 wasn't built from scratch?
But, was it built on existing code ie going back into original code and tightening everything up or was it entirely built from the ground up in the spirit of the original?Only the campaign and the 6 remade maps I believe.
I don't really think it's that.Well further in the original article they mentioned that there was a CPU Bottleneck for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 so it's quite possible they just couldn't hit 1080p. Having a new engine doesn't mean they suddenly get a big power boost over using their old engine they've just created a new one that I imagine is easier to use and features more visual effects being used.
Does it tag your TV shows wrong?Just tried the Plex app, and it works fantastic. I like how it uses the Xbox theme for it's interface, nice addition for sure.
You mean as far as "watched" and "unwatched?" As far as I can see everything looks correct, and all on deck shows look correct. Are you having an issue?Does it tag your TV shows wrong?
But there is a fee, correct?Just tried the Plex app, and it works fantastic. I like how it uses the Xbox theme for it's interface, nice addition for sure.
I do have a Plex Pass so I'm not 100% certain, but the app is listed as free and I believe Plex Server is free for single user in home use.But there is a fee, correct?
Warframe came out on Xbox One in September, but I had some other stuff to review before I could get to it, and also wanted to spend sufficient time learning how everything works. It came out on PS4 in April-ish, I think.Did Warframe just come to Xbox one or something? I thought its been out for awhile
Some people like Warframe better. It actually has way more content and clan support. Destiny has a bigger advertising budget though, and more development money to spend on graphics, but that doesn't make it a clear cut superior game. Hell, up until a week ago, you'd find rare items and the game turned them into less rare items as a nice little FU to players.Come on, now... as your friend, I must say that is a ludicrous statement. I've owned Waframe since last year and enjoy it. The updates have made it better, and it is indeed very good when compared to other F2P games.
But to say it's a "killer alternative to Destiny"? That'd be tantamount to (a few years ago) saying, "Love Rock Band, but don't have much cash? Konami's Rock Revolution is the perfect solution!"
Congratulations, Htz. But it really would be nice for you or another mod to ask them to stop arguing. Any time there's some negative stance to take on an issue regarding the Xbox or Microsoft, a few very special people will argue about it endlessly and derail the thread until someone knocks them around.9/13/14.
Except that didn't happen this time did it? So maybe you should let him do his job and you should just worry about your reviews and self promotion.Congratulations, Htz.

I'm sure they'll tell you to stop eventually, just like all the other times. I can see why people actually happily discussing games instead of whining and bitching about them rubs you the wrong way though.Except that didn't happen this time did it?

I had an episode of the daily show downloaded to my computer and it showed up as Americas funniest home videos on the serverYou mean as far as "watched" and "unwatched?" As far as I can see everything looks correct, and all on deck shows look correct. Are you having an issue?
Thanks! As for the rest, use the ignore list function within user control panel settings. I will review the reports as I get them but I'm leaving it up to the other mods as far as punishment goes. I mainly focus on the video game deals forum.Congratulations, Htz. But it really would be nice for you or another mod to ask them to stop arguing.

Except I have been talking about games and apps like plex so yet another baseless comment to go along with your continued subtle jabs you take at me which you were also warned about. Eventually you will learn if you continue to take jabs at me I jab back. And yes I like to talk about the industry, wrongs, rights, and indifferent, we are on a discussion forum after all. And it's far better than having my head so far up a corporations brown eye, kissing butt, doing reviews so they will throw me some free scraps and all the other wonders that are eastx.I'm sure they'll tell you to stop eventually, just like all the other times.

First off Kazeno Katana don't tell me how to post, if I wish to edit I will do so..thanks. And why are you trying to make this a Sony vs Microsoft issue, this is about Microsoft and Ubisoft, and you keep throwing the word fanboy around when doing so making you look the part more than anyone ekse. And thanks asspickle for Kazeno Katana quote, basically exposing him as a hypocrite and nulling any arguments he's made. That is almost on the TimboSliceGB level.. wow! Funny enough I've seen him arguing points on here and saying the opposite on GAF so this really isn't all that shocking, I think the dude just likes to argue for arguments sake.
That is one theory out there, yes. And a pretty solid one at that, because who stands to benefit from parity in this other than Microsoft? But lets say no money exchanged hands for parity, it still sets a precedent to gimp PS4 games for the sake of parity for whatever reason there may be and that is still an issue.
You're just as foolish to believe Microsoft doesn't make these kinds of deals, we already know of the indie parity clause, so who's to say there wasn't one written in the marketing contract? You're just as quick to jump in favor of Microsoft as I an to side against them which makes you an apologist just as much me a fanboy, and there is over 30 years of shady practices by that corporation to prove against them. And Ubisoft's retraction was nothing more than damage control, sorry not buying it, sometimes the truth leaks in candid interviews and I believe it far more than calculated PR.
He said "if," I know you struggle with grammar and reading comprehension, but "if" means there is a conditional clause which means there is a possibility that it cannot hit 1080p. And DestroVega is hardly a PS4 fanboy, so the only thing that is "just dumb" is your posts but that isn't anything new around here.
No One needs to be an armchair anything when there is a direct quote from Ubisoft stating they went for parity. And people think that the issue people have with this is the resolution which is only partially the case. The true underlying issue here is that this will set a precedent where devs can accept funds from Microsoft to gimp PS4 versions of games especially if there is a marketing deal in place. I now fear for games like The Witcher III, Evolve, CoD. etc getting the same treatment and it just isn't right for this to happen because Microsoft made such a poorly spec'd machine.
You need some glasses or a bigger TV or to remove your Microsoft bias, or all of the above.
Totally not trying to start and maintain arguments over an issue, nope.Would be fun if we could peek into an alternate reality where the Xbox was the more powerful machine getting the gimped games because of the weaker PS4 and watching all the hypocrisy.
You knew who you were referencing, quit playing dumb, the mods saw through you BS when they warned you about it last time.Hey now, I didn't even mention your name. You chimed in to say that I should let you derail the thread in peace. I could have been talking about someone else, but you knew who was derailing the thread.

So as to address things in order: Warframe was available on PS4 the day the system launched.Warframe came out on Xbox One in September, but I had some other stuff to review before I could get to it, and also wanted to spend sufficient time learning how everything works. It came out on PS4 in April-ish, I think.

Destiny has a bigger advertising budget though, and more development money to spend on graphics, but that doesn't make it a clear cut superior game. Hell, up until a week ago, you'd find rare items and the game turned them into less rare items as a nice little FU to players.
My review doesn't argue that Warframe actually is better though, just that people should be playing it.
I stand corrected. I think I saw the Japanese PS4 launch date (February) and then misremembered the month. You're right that I haven't played Destiny at home, which is one reason I didn't express opinions on its quality in the Warframe review. I did crowdsource a bunch of comparisons at NeoGAF so that I could learn what people like about both games, and then pulled a few facts from that, like that Warframe has more content and clan support.So as to address things in order: Warframe was available on PS4 the day the system launched.
And sure, some people like Warframe better. There are no official numbers for that, of course, but you didn't say more people liked Warframe anyway. The reasons you listed about the graphics and budget don't make Destiny better, but dozens of other things do. The two games are not really even all that similar, honestly. And the engram thing, while frustrating, was far from "an FU to players". It was only misleading for people who didn't take the time to read the item descriptions that always said there were multiple possible rewards of varying levels.
Despite how this may come across, I think Warframe is very good for a "free to play" game, but is not something worthy of a full price retail release. So I'm stating my opinions primarily for that reason, as well as the fact that you (aside from maybe the beta or at trade shows/etc.) haven't even played Destiny. That's why I didn't get the comparison.
But yeah... play both games, people! Playing both costs exactly the same as only playing the better one, so you have nothing to lose. Plus both games share exciting features such as:
I am so not. I mean I am really excited for it, and I have it preordered but I haven't even gotten to Shadows of Mordor yet :lol: .Just seen sunset first tv ad I'm so ready for that game
So you weren't around for the PS2 / Xbox era. Right.Would be fun if we could peek into an alternate reality where the Xbox was the more powerful machine getting the gimped games because of the weaker PS4 and watching all the hypocrisy.
I agree. I'm not getting it because they are once again having peer-hosted multiplayer, but they're doing right by gamers here.People can hate on Activision all they want but continuing these free upgrade promotions is really great for gamer's planning to get newer consoles down the road.
I was, but that's not even close to the same scenario because the original Xbox didn't have twice the installed base of the PS2, and of course there wasn't social media to the extent it is today, and for the most part multiplat ports ran better on the original Xbox.So you weren't around for the PS2 / Xbox era. Right.
What is a movers coupon? Sorry, I did search it but couldn't find anything on it. Yes, that's precisely what I do for consoles anymore as I look for the biggest bundles I can get then sell whatever I don't need. I replaced my last PS3 that way after my coveted 60gb BC died after 6 years.If you can get one of those movers coupons you can get the Sunset Overddrive bundle for $360+ tax and if you don't want sunset overddrive sell the game code on ebay or something. You could probably even sell the white controller for slightly more then a regular black controller and buy a black controller if you really want
