1Up Show 10.5 (TGS 2008, Call of Duty beta, Dead Space)

Yoshichan

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

Why not? Spoileration? I say go ahead. It's mostly about the combat and the aesthetic. Few story details are revealed, and they look to me like early-game premise kind of stuff anyway. Certainly no big twist.
Alright thanks, will watch!

Every time one of the others had a small remark, he shot into defence. He was a bit to defensive, even as the other two's were maybe nitpicking.

I think he made valid arguments while the others were nitpicking.

And the game looks awesome, still waiting for the PC version to come out.

Indeed. Kinda like the Dead Space defenders on this forum. Say something negative about Dead Space and they're all over you. The game looks and sounds awesome though.
 
It seemed so forced and obvious. Perhaps it was all an act on both of their parts?

The real trick is saying something "smart and negative". That seems to be the elusive prize right now.

Thierry Nguyen is a jaded d-bag. That guy needs a vacation from video games.


Do as I say, not as I do, I guess?

I had time to think about it. :)

But his complaints in the podcast seemed pretty trollish. I had some time to think about it and thought that maybe, just maybe it was "work" as in the professional wrestling kind...

why should people have to use download managers?
The reason is because they are hosting the videos off of their streaming server which limits bandwidth to single streams. The max bandwidth per download/stream/connection is set so that it should be just slightly enough to play video while it's downloading if your connection is clear.

The problem is, lots of people's connections through many different routers to the gamevideos servers will sometimes be degraded and therefore a single stream will be slower than normal.

That is why to get the full download potential you'll need to open up several simultaneous connections to a single file and download it all at the same time. Hence why using a Download Manager that does this will usually max your download bandwidth when downloading from GameVideos.com.

And then of course there are people who are told this every other week who STILL complain...

How well do you guys think Dead Space is going to sell? EA has been aggressively maketing it, seen many commercials for it during shows like Family Guy, South Park, etc. I predict its going to break the top 20-- if not top 10.

My problem with WaW is the weapons don't look like they pack the Power of modern weapons, though I haven't played it yet, so have to see. Even if I don't like the weapon I know I'll love the perc sstem, I'm a upgrade fanatic:D

QFT! Downloading became much more easier once I got Flashget :D

For those who don't have a DLM use Flashget: http://www.flashget.com/en/download.htm

Or install Flashgot(firefox extension): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/220

You don't have to change your routine, just right-click the whatever you want to download and select Flashgot Link, it doesn't take any longer than if you download it regularly:

Yeah Matt Leone is a big fanboy, he just loves everything and not very critical of any game. On a rainey afternoon he loves to sit down on his loveseat couch and sip on his cappachino while enjoying great games without nitpicking at them.

Yep that's what Matt Leone is, A GREAT GUY.

I am glad he is a game journalist, because if it wasn't for him I would have not enjoyed any game in the last 2 years. THANK GOD FOR MATT LEONE!

The fucking brutal ownage that Dead Space has delivered unto all its haters is delicious.

I can practically hear their teeth grinding through the internet.

When both the Xbox and PS3 versions are in October NPD top 10s, the ownage will be utter and final. Make your time, haters.

having deadspace sponsor the show was a bit awkward, but other than that it was great. The dead space segment was timely regardless of the ad and I enjoyed the CoD:WaW segment as well.

IIRC didn't they advertise DeadSpace during last week 1up Show?
