Aliens: Colonial Marines

[Multiple Sarcasm]

If you will compare a shit game to a dump you just took it also wouldn't look that bad.

Your dumps clearly lack in professional integrity and setting consistency.
You might want to get that checked out.

Seems to be a fairly good parody "news" site.

So does Kotaku.

At least I can read P4G without wanting to commit atrocities.

Interesting article, don't know if it was linked to before: http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkai...e-most-controversial-studios-in-the-industry/

The short film they were talking about that apparently "inspired" Borderlands:

 

[ohWOW]

I could've known that Gearbox couldn't came with a such shit art direction just by themselves. They need to steal it too.

 

[Jick Magger]

Christ, there's a difference between innocent inspiration and ripping assets wholesale and only pulling the 'inspired' card when people point out your plagiarism.

 

[Sodafish]

... all art is theft after all

 

[Unkillable Cat]

They I don't think Pitchford will mind if I don't pay for his stolen material...

... that is, of course, if any of it is worth stealing to begin with. The only Gearbox product I own is Opposing Force for Half-Life, and so far it's the only one worth owning to this day.

 

[Zewp]

What pisses me off is that a month and a half later, Pitchford still hasn't said anything to fans about why he lied to them about the game and we will likely never know the whole truth of what the hell happened.

Gearbox took the money and used it to make Borderlands 2. The amazing "gameplay video" was a heavily scripted trailer, a'la Oblivion but worse.

Game got a 4GB size patch, but its too late and too little...

[Sodafish]

4GB jesus. That's not a patch, it's a replacement everything

 

[Andyman Messiah]

A 4GB PATCH?

Holy shit, I thought that was a joke?

 

[evdk]

With Gearbox's track record it probably just changes two config lines somewhere and the rest is just filler.

 

[Jick Magger]

Dragon Age II did something similar. Game looked like ass without it.

Like Dragon Age II, coming in half a month later to wrap the shit you left on my plate in a nice looking bow doesn't stop it being shit.

Oh, so they even stole this idea from somewhere else. Gearbox, not an original thought in their heads.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

What else do you expect from a bunch of Texan redneck cowboys? Brilliance and imagination?

 

[Andyman Messiah]

Dragon Age II did something similar. Game looked like ass without it.

And it looked like ass WITH it. The most useless patch ever made.

 

[Cyberarmy]

Patch is nearly as big as game itself XD, but mainy because of high textures i presume. I would check it out tonight but Undying awaits so im just going to forget about Aliez for a while.

You can make graphics look better, but the shitty gameplay will remain :Oblivion:

Yup, a polished turd is still a turd.

- Improved texture resolution.
- Various visual improvements.
- Changes to better prevent audio from sometimes cutting out during end of mission cinematics.
- Tweaked enemy and friendly AI to be more aggressive and responsive.
- Modified campaign difficulty to account for improved AI responsiveness.

I think you didn't see BF3 "patches", the small ones usually weight no less the 6GB.

I think you didn't see BF3 "patches", the small ones usually weight no less the 6GB.

And yet I bet that 6GB worth of changes didn't contain an option to turn off the unbelievably retarded and distracting dirt smears/speckles in the player's view.

 

[Zewp]

Or the blinding lighting effects that burn your eyes from your skull.

 

[WhiskeyWolf]

Don't be preposterous, it's only there to take space on my HD, 35GB to be precise.
