4K 60fps Photo Realism With Unreal 4 Engine

notarobot says...

Exactly. At a time when Microsoft and Sony were pushing graphics, Nintendo nailed gameplay.

"I'm cheap, and fun."

so, one thought; the original Wii was success without having the highest graphics, but offering great games and an original experience.

And---while I look forward to great engines (though water and skin and hair are still so hard to get right)--the story and the mechanics are more important to me...

Tested HTC Vive review

MilkmanDan says...

I never got sold on motion control. It just has never been precise enough to feel like anything more than a gimmick to me. Maybe just confirmation bias, but everything I tried on Wii just felt really weird, clunky, and plasticky. I'll admit that I haven't really tried much of anything since then (and Wii is really old news by now).

Anyway, all the demos here looked cool for their 3D immersion, but my old bias against motion control kind of put a bit of an unfavorable spin on everything -- at least to me. Fine, small-scale motor skills are just going to be really hard to simulate with two wand-like things, even when they have multiple degrees of freedom and seemingly pretty solid accuracy.

...But, I'll admit that the archery mini-game looked like a really fun adaptation of that that wouldn't necessarily require *extremely* accurate fine control. Moving out of gimmick territory and into "ok, that could actually be extremely entertaining".

The weird virtual reality of Google's Project Tango

blacklotus90 says...

Yeah!! I remember setting up the wii remote head tracking and smartboard and playing around with them, amazing what he could do with a couple IR LEDs and the wii webcam. It's a shame he no longer publishes DIY home projects, but I suppose he's got bigger things to work on.

This guy is awesome. Look what he did with a wii remote back in 2008. Nintendo did NOTHING with it. AR on your tv in 2008? I was really looking forward to playing some first person shooters with that mod on a wii...

He worked on the Kinect and now he is at google with Tango.

Disc Golf Ace (Hole In One) Through The Woods

Colbert interviews Anita Sarkeesian

RedSky says...

There is misogyny in some mainstream games (from memory, I found GTAV to occasionally veer in that direction) but the examples she gives are so wrong they're either exaggerated, ignorant or purposefully misleading.

Dragon Age? Hitman? Really? Neither of these games can be in any way characterised as misogynistic. Dragon Age has strong main female characters, it displays the mistreatment of women but also racism and genocide. Hitman actively punishes you for killing civilians and gender really has little bearing on the game at all.

Slightly more women play mobile games than men today. Even before that we had the success of the Wii's general appeal and the huge sales of The Sims series before that. AAA titles still veer towards violent themes but that is not misogyny. If her views gain traction it's more on the basis of the preconceived and uninformed views of the general adult public rather than reality.

The Sony Playstation 4 (PS4) Makes Its Debut

entr0py says...

For me the lack of an included camera was the biggest reason to go with the PS4.

At the start of the last console generation I didn't want to pay an extra $200 for a bluray player I didn't want. This time I don't want to pay an extra $100 for a camera I don't want.

That was a cute demo though. I can see how that would be fun at parties for a few minutes, sort of like the Wii was.

Deano said:

That looked like a lot of fun! Pity their camera is not actually included in the system.
