• EA unveils Battlefield 4, powered by Frostbite 3, with 17-minute gameplay trailer

• syphaa 27/03/2013

  As a few people have mentioned, BF is all about the multiplayer. The only thing that would draw me into the campaign would be if it was a four way co-op, but I highly doubt it. But to be honest there still isn't any other FPS game out there that creates so many unique 'Battlefield' moments. That's why I and most people go back to it again and again.
  
  It also looks stunning at 100fps+ and it's looking like BF4 is building on the amazing foundations of BF3. Personally I can't wait as it can only go forwards at this stage...surely... :) Reply +2

• Bethesda re-releasing Quake 4 on PC, Xbox 360

• syphaa 11/04/2012

  Wow. This has to be one of the most obvious cash in attempts in the industry...and they are going to get away with it?! Why would anyone want to buy Q4 new? As many people have commented you can pick it up on Steam for £5 cheaper, or go into Game (i'm sure it's about 1p in there at the minute) or any other high street store and you could probably get it for less than a fiver.
  
  Unbelievable. It would be a bit more legit if it was a good title and people were ACTUALLY struggling to find a copy... Reply +1

• Battlefield 3: Close Quarters Preview: An All-Encompassing Expansion

• syphaa 13/03/2012

  Looks fun, big BF3/Battlefield fan but am open to this idea of CQC. Only thing is...people complain about use of RPGs against infantry now...imagine what it's going to be like on these close quarters maps. Nightmare. Reply +2

• Medal of Honor

• syphaa 12/10/2010

  If it's anything like BFBC2 with regards to its multiplayer then i'm sold...the campaign will just be an added bonus to blast through. Looking forward to picking it up this week. Interested to see how customisable the weapons are in MP. Nothing really outlining this anywhere...or is there?
  
  Was expecting a 8/10 - 9/10 so not really thrown me for or against. Reply 0

• GT 5 Karting footage

• syphaa 23/08/2010

  Combine the Karts with custom track design...that is going to be awesome. Little project ahead to build my local go-kart tracks and finally shut up my friends claiming their lap times are faster... Reply 0

• Deadliest Warrior - first 15 mins

• syphaa 15/07/2010

  Wow that looks so incredibly rubbish. Is it possible to make a game that looks like it should have been launched on the dreamcast 10 years ago...utter crap. Reply -7

• syphaa 17/05/2010

  Interesting that Dice are doing the MP! Could be good on that side of thing's considering how they always do an awesome job on Battlefield MP. Looks good. Always been a MOH fan. Reply +1

  Cool. Still doesn't give much away. Could be a good void filler with the future of COD hanging in the balance. Reply 0

• Green Ubisoft ditching paper manuals

  I'm more shocked by the fact that Shaun White has made the leap to skateboarding? Could of sworn he was a snowboarder ;) Reply +4

• SBK X: Superbike World Championship

• syphaa 16/04/2010

  This does look really promising, I have previously bought all the SBK games and must say it's leaps and bounds ahead of any of the Moto GP titles. It's a difficult one because the reviewers and most of the general public aren't really that savvy with the bike racing world so they can kinda miss the point of a title like this.
  
  Love the idea of having the old schooler's in it, like Fogarty, Chilé, Slight etc Reply +5

• Splinter Cell: Conviction

• syphaa 16/04/2010

  This game is fantastic, just enjoy it for what it is and that's a very competent 3rd person sneak em' up with awesome co-op. Everyone should give it a whirl as once you get engrossed in the story and playing Sam Fisher it really is a fantastic title. Reply +4

• Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

• syphaa 06/10/2009

  Yeah strange review, almost as though the reviewer didn't really have much hands on with the title, and as the other comments suggest here to miss out talking about the multiplayer aspect is just criminal in a game that I am sure will be at its best online against other like minded sim players!
  
  I am so hyped for this title still and I think anyone who has been looking forward to this title will not be disappointed, a high quality sim war title has been long needed on the 360, personally I can't wait to play co-op 4 player and watch my buddies head getting blown apart :) Reply +19

  Oh...my...god...that is truly horrific. SBK09 is still the leading bike racer without a doubt.

  Yeah, what a random screenie to submit to journalists?
  Still think Op Flash 2 will own this hands down, first Arma was buggy as hell and fugly. Reply 0

  PC exclusive? Not that I am aware of, what about the 360 version thats coming out? :) Reply 0

• DJ Shadow: DJ Hero will "raise eyebrows"

  Hope it some ways its good. Especially for Shadows cred, if its really wank then it will be pinned on his name aswell as acti's.
  I am hoping its good though! Reply 0

• New Kojima Productions game teased

• syphaa 13/05/2009

  Looking at it again, you can make out what looks like snake laying down, his head on the right in the clouds. Weird. Over at Kotaku they have a load of theories from people in japan. Quite interesting. Reply 0

• syphaa 13/05/2009

  From the double page spread to me it instantly looks like a field with a cloud of smoke from an exlposion? Almost as though theres a war going on. Maybe kojimas attempt at a FPS/Operation Flashpoint/War genre?
  
  Will hopefully find out on the 18th? Certainly interested though, huge fan of hideos titles. The obvious being MGS, I don't think it will be MGS related. Fingers crossed it isnt in a way and this is the start of a whole new franchise. Reply 0

• Operation Flashpoint marches to autumn

• syphaa 07/05/2009

  That does suck.
  
  But as mentioned, I spose its better they spend a few extra months giving it a real hard polish than roll out patches for the next 3 months after release. Still think this has got what it takes, looks awesome. Co-op with a squad of buddies is going to be amazing! Reply 0

  Worse renders I have ever seen.
  I could have done that with paint...

• MS changes gamerscore limit to 1750

• syphaa 01/05/2009

  Strange...why would they change it now?
  
  Im a bit of a horder of gamerscore and am always chuffed to see the 1000/1000 mark hit, 1750 is a bit ridiculous...maybe if DLC is involved then thats not as bad. Personally I think its a dumb idea, it changes the whole dynamic of gamerscore. Reply 0

• Moore: PES is in FIFA's "rear view mirror"

• syphaa 30/04/2009

  Really looking forward to Fifa 10, (ironic name, probably at least 10 iterations!).
  Fifa 09 is still going strong for me and a mate of mine as we are both into our 3rd season on management mode, its awesome.
  
  Fingers crossed its as good as 09 with lots of nice added features. Can't see how the animations/gameplay can be any smoother though. Reply 0

• ArmA II to launch over here in June

• syphaa 29/04/2009

  Operation Flashpoint 2 is where its at for sim war fps.
  ARMA was buggy as hell and really unpolished and fugly.
  
  From what I have seen of OP2 it looks imense and a lot more polished. Reply 0

• Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

• syphaa 16/04/2009

  So hyped about this title.
  By far the game I am focusing on at the minute.
  
  I am hoping for an ultra realistic title, if people want arcadey fps they can play COD/generic FPS.
  This is what its about. Hope the co-op brings even more immersion.
  
  Really looking forward to this, fingers so tightly crossed that codies have this nailed. Reply 0
