Ok I’ll limit myself to saying something horrible to every other month. Then I can keep getting away with it forever

Russianranger,

That sounds like a marketing bullet point; -Xbox - comes with 1x monthly use of the gamer word

But why? Nintendo controllers are already pretty small.

My mouse has 19 buttons.

Yeah, no thanks.

I couldn’t even use the DSi for long periods. It’s just too thin to hold comfortably and you end up doing some sort of weird claw grip just to hold it.

Ended up playing mostly stylus based games like Professor Layton and Ghost Trick. I even played Zelda with the stylus.

I’m tempted to get one to use as a “little brother controller”. And just for the absurdity. I’ll wait for some more actual reviews to trickle in first.

GammaGames, do gaming w 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III' will include the series' biggest zombies map ever

MW2 had some awesome maps, I still play modded versions of a few of them on VR. Zombies mode sounds interesting too:

You’ll be able to team up with other squads for the first time and try to survive “massive hordes” of zombies.

@realcaseyrollins Are all maps remasters of the original MW2 maps? This game really doesn't feel like a new game, but was originally planned as a Modern Warfare 2 Remake extension to add original maps. That they will include new maps in the future is another good reason to believe that. This shouldn't be a new standalone game for full price.

can, do gaming w The cozy cat game that escaped from Valve

In nearly 17 years at Valve, Wood helped build and ship the company’s most notable titles, including Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 2, CS:GO and both episodes of Half-Life 2. He was a founding member of the CS:GO project and worked on that series for six years; he was pivotal in crafting Portal 2’s co-op mode, and he created choreography and combat scenes in Half-Life and Left 4 Dead. Level design was one of his specialties.

You have my attention.

“It really is more about cozy exploration,” Wood told Engadget. “The game has aspects of platforming, but it’s very light platforming. It’s more about exploring vertically, and exploring nooks and crannies. I’ve done a lot of things throughout my career, but one of the things I spent a lot of time doing was level design in video games, so I have a lot of personal interest in creating spaces that feel fun to explore, to sort of poke around in.”

Been following Wood’s progress on this since he was doing initial prototyping, it’s coming along really well!

Note: These are not games released in 2023, just another “best of” list.

2 Nintendo games I think this year? Pikmin 4 and totk

I enjoyed the demo they put out for this, definitely nailed the cozy exploration aspect. Looking forward to picking it up when it launches.

I tried the demo, but it suffers from the same issue that tight urban 3rd person view games have: A camera that jumps a lot when swinging it around due to obstacles and walls.

PonyOfWar, do gaming w 'Half-Life 2' is getting an unofficial RTX remaster

Looks great, but I’m skeptical if it’ll ever see an actual release. Remastering the entire game with the kind of asset quality we see for this single room would require an enormous amount of time and effort, especially with people working for free.

GammaGames,

Sounds like they’re using AI to help:

the modders are also using an early version of RTX Remix to add extra model detail (through Valve’s Hammer editor) and rework materials with physical-based rendering properties.

I’m curious how much effort the tools remove

cnnrduncan,

You’d be shocked at the work modders are willing to put in for free when working on a game that they love - and Half Life is a series that a lot of people absolutely adore!

Looks very cool from the teaser! Funny how the remix looks like I remember the original looking at the time it was released haha.
