• • Fileplanet Open Beta NDA is dropped!!

  • I have been in the general beta for long enough to experience a lot of this game, more than once due to character wipes after large changes.  Playing to level 13 is more than enough to judge whether or not you like the game.  Personally, I had a blast, every one of the countless times I made the journey.

    While I'm not supposed to talk about my experiences beyond level 13, I can't help but add that the gameplay only gets more enjoyable the further along you get.  If I get kicked for breaking the nda over that little comment, then so be it.  I leave for work on Monday and won't be home to play until November.

    The game runs smooth, the graphics are simply amazing, and the storytelling is the best I've seen in an mmo, period. 

    While stability and performance come launch day will depend on server infrastructure and the number of people trying to play at once, I can say that my latest experience with the beta build ran smoother and more stable than wow did at launch.

    Stop the fanboy comments before they start.  I give credit where credit is due, nothing more.

    Personally, I'm tired of the fantasy setting in mmos.  Give me Huxley, give me Earthrise, or give me Stalker online, and I'll be happy.

• • General: $73,600 Average Game Industry Salary

  • Surely not as high as I had thought either, however I'm sure this contains the salary from a lot of entry level positions.

• • Portal(TV)

  • The problem with gaming on television is that it doesn't appeal to the masses.  Non gamers will watch garbage like Jack Thompson bash games all day long, but get them to sit down and watch positive coverage on them is near to impossible.

    A lot of gamers may be like myself, in that when I'm not gaming, I'm not going to go out of my way to watch a television program about it.  I'll visit websites such as this and other major sites, but sitting down to watch pretty people who probably never play in their free time just doesn't appeal to me.

    Live or recorded coverage of random CoD4 matches would be interesting, as would showing machinima like RvsB.

    Which actually gets me thinking.  Has Red vs Blue been on tv at all?  I would think that if it was on regularily it would draw quite a few viewers.

• • PS3/360 Cry Engine 2 (Crysis) to look near high settings on PC

  • Notice that he said high settings or close to high settings.  The difference between high and very high on the pc is extraordinary.  We won't see a console capable of that kind of graphical quality until the next generation, at the very least.
