Battlefield 2143 Hinted At!
For those of you who enjoyed Battlefield 2142, it looks like DICE might be at it again with Battlefield 2143 which will most likely use the same engine as Battlefield 3. Time to experience the future with ultra-realistic graphics. (Also time to buy a new PC.) http://www.fudzilla.com/games/item/25288...

Re: Any BF3 Players out there?
I love the game, but I have to run on the lowest settings at 800x600 and I get massive artifacts after a few minutes of gameplay. Gonna have to wait to get a new PC to enjoy it, but hoping Battlefield 2143 will be out by then. More of a futuristic gamer myself.

If Descent 4 Came Out Today...
Although the future of Descent 4 is still unknown, I would like to get the feel of what the Descent community would expect from a Descent 4 game if it came out today. Basically, what kind of features would you want to be in the game so that it would feel like it was worth the wait? Here are some top...

Re: FREE CryEngine 3 SDK to be released.
I really hope someone from this community uses this to make a Descent mod. Was hoping it would happen with the last editor, but I don't think anything happened. Seeing a Pyro GX blast through mines in today's graphics and physics would be awesome.

Re: Red Faction Armageddon's Singularity Cannon
I wonder how much of the gameplay will have this fighter. If people make some custom maps, its Descent all over again! Volition, I love you. We all knew you couldn't let Descent die. 6DOF baby!

I liked the suit customization and the graphics for gamer were good considering my system. The biggest problem though is motion blur. They need an option to turn it off.

Without the possibility of evil, there cannot be choice, something even God has. Now of course God defines good. In so much as God behaves, so much so good exists.
