Is this game any fun? Can you play it on a Mac?


You can't even play it on Vista, the only other DX10 platform besides Xbox - and it was developed my Microsoft.

Collosally huge fuckup IMO. Should have been a simultanious release. Vista/XBox.

That way i could school them xbox having dic suckas with my processing powerzzzz....

I don't think you're processing power would help you............your keyboard and mouse would though. It's a closed envrionment, either you have the minimum hardware to run it or you don't. Your extra processing power won't even be used.

Resolution and Screen Refresh Rate - Frames Per Second - are HUGE factors in First Person Shooter games - I can see stuff 100s of milliseconds before xbox tools, and *IF* i were skilled enough, that's a huge edge and I'd out them.

I suck at games tho, so it's mute for me.

ShadowRun is a DX10 dual release.... vista platforms are pwning.

I got the ballz video cards, just no skillz. I got dual Nvidia 8800GTXs in SLI....

i played that game once last week and I kept getting owned
 
Your screen resolution might help you unless you're playing against guys with HDTV's.........but the refresh rate is the same regardless of the hardware. It wouldn't look good for the 360 if they allowed computer users to get online with 360 players and have an advantage..........so they wrote the closed code for xbox live to ensure everyone is playing on the same field. Obviously connection rate is the biggest factor..........if you're connection is bogging down than for sure you'll see a frame rate drop. But dont' discount that mouse...........that's your biggest advantage.

Sorry bro.


I can run 2500x1600... HDTV can't even come close to that resolution. it's around 1024x768 (Maybe slightly higher - but not much)

And refresh rate - is refered to as Frames Per Second in a game that is rendered real time. You're completely and utterly wrong if you think a 360's video processor can render even a 1/4 of the frames per second a Fully Yoked PC system can. A single Video 8800GTX video card is about 600 bucks, I got two in SLI.... xbox 360 can touch that kinda of rendering power for the cost of the entire box.

And Wrong again about the 360 system being a closed loop system. See: ShadowRun. Dual Release DX10 game. If fact that is part of Microsoft's golden promise - Cross Platform gaming on a shared backend system. Vista and XBox360's running DX10. I've actually played shadowrun from vista against vista and x360 systems. This is nothing new though - Peeps been doing that with CounterStrike and other games cross platform for years.

Connection speed does not affect my FPS, nor XBoxs. However if your connection speed sucks ur fucked cause what you shoot at on your screen may no longer be there in the system anymore.

Connection speed is not an issue here either though.
 
Sorry I am such a dick when explaining my point of view / facts.


Just the way I come across.

This shit is true though.

Every time its shotty snipes I veto it. I hate it, my reflexs arent as fast as the teenagers anymore so I get pwned by a ten year old before I even get the chance to zoom in on him.

shit man, if its unranked ill get my ass kicked even more than I do now.
 
I'm going to have to check into that. I'm not doubting your hardware superiority to the 360 bro, what I'm doubting is that the software is written to take advantage of it, there's a big difference. A console game is set to run at a fixed FPS, I would be VERY skeptical to the claim that microsoft would allow high end computer users to use their excess hardware power.........they don't want computer guys coming onto live and DOMINATING their xbox hardware, they just can't be that stupid. Computer games are a completely different animal..........they're coded to allow for the step up in hardware. But you may be right.........I'm just doubting it from a business perspective. You have to admit that it wouldn't make sense for microsoft to allow that.

And Patsfan.........stfu.........shouldn't you be polishing Brady's balls or something? Don't leave the nigga hangin with dry balls now!

Xbox 360 doesn't do DirectX10. PC version of Gears of War also looks much better.

see ive never played ranked i'd prob. kick peoples asses

do you have an advantage against 360 owners when you're playing halo on a juiced up computer?

halo3 doens't run on any platform but the 360.


Check out ShadowRun or CounterStrike.

Both are multiplatform.

I can render close to 200 FPS at 2500x16000 with 8x anti-aliasing.

jesus that's fuckin impressive..........anything over 60FPS doesn't even register to the human eye. Anyway, Yeah I just looked it up........there's no Halo 3 for the pc so this is a moot argument. I think shadowrun and counterstrike are originally PC games ported to the 360, so in that case I can definitely see that the original pc game code would allow for you to have an advantage over 360 players. I think I might be going back to PC gaming anyway..........I'm kind of tired of console's. Sony and Microsoft are slowly phasing out the split screen multiplayer so that peeps are strong armed into xbox live and whatever service sony has for online play...........that's where they're going to start advertising and make their money. But that means no more sitting in a room with your buddies drinking beer and letting your friend know just how badly you just pwned him with a long distance sniper round to the face............that's just irreplaceable. Going online has it's merits, but if I'm going to be forced to sit alone and play a game I'd rather do it infront of a computer screen with sick headphones. I just don't have the money right now to invest in a computer that can run those SLI cards...........let alone the SLI cards themselves.

Halo 3 is splitscreen but apparently has issues-
http://www.joystiq.com/2007/09/25/halo-3-split-screen-wastes-16-9-hdtv-edges/

This is the multiplayer game to get this Holiday season-

http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=580373

For PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. PC and PS3 versions scheduled for this year with the 360 sometime early next year. The PS3 version offers mouse/keyboard support as well as open network for exchanging mods with the PC version. Co-op multiplayer up to four players is also expected.
 
I wasn't impressed by that footage...........the unreal games get old quick. Shit made my eyes bleed after awhile from all that movement...........I definitely prefer a more realistic moving FPS. And I just wasn't all that impressed by the graphics........it looks like a standard pc game running with good hardware. But the rendered graphics don't look all that impressive.

I like the organic look more but until mid next year that's about the best shooter we're gonna get. Halo 3 is good in an overhyped kinda way. It has nice textures but is the same old game as the first two plus a map editor.

I want to play Haze. It looks like the type of game that will either suck or kick ass.
