, che verrà usato nell'attesissimo titolo Crysis , sparatutto in soggettiva per PC e console Next Generation (presumibilmente Xbox 360 e PlayStation 3). The software company Crytek, who wrote the beautiful Far Cry and Far Cry Instincts , has developed a graphics engine with exceptional features, the CryEngine 2, which will be used in the highly anticipated title Crysis , first-person shooter for PC and console Next Generation (presumably Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3).
We must now admit that the level of detail rendering (real time) is reached as to make it really difficult to distinguish images of the game and those of a normal photograph. See for example the two pictures below and try to understand what is artificial and what is not (more pictures are available on 7 new Crysis screenshots to real-life comparison - the Blog youNewb ).

We, final mind! On February 23, should be the official date of launch of the Italian Chapter XII Final Fantasy . People like me who is a passionate saga of this great can not wait to get my hands on this, also discussed the title.

The opinions of those who have had the opportunity to prove they are discordanrti. Square-Enix has introduced, according to some innovations in the game that are not liked at all. The system of cambattimento, for example, has been indicted in many reviews. However each title of Final Fantasy has always brought with protests, denials by sales figures at the end after a few months. But what's new in this latest game for Playstation 2? Indeed, it seems that the Playstation 3 will be the only console to take advantage of the upcoming Final Fantasy punate. Anyway this is the least of the problems, then we see the news that we expect soon!

The plot of this chapter is focused on political intrigue and betrayal, leaving little room for components fantastic as magic and witchcraft, sharp breaking point, then, with previous versions. Moreover, apart from some well-thought plot twist, it seems that the story proceeds without exceptional events, with a simple plot for a game like this. I must say, however, that sometimes the plots of the previous chapters of Final Fantasy were too complicated and mystical. So, in my opinion, is a very simple plot to follow the twists well as relaxing.

Barrel side deadlifts disappear during combat! For the first time in the history of Final Fantasy fighting game and will have a single time-line, which seems to me quite acceptable, if implemented well. Even the casual meetings were sent into retirement, so you should be ready and our enemies will see them directly in the environment around us, no mysterious appearances and, in fact, meaningless. The default character is the most criticized. Many people did not liked the license, forced and cumbersome, as well as evocations, unnecessary and just there to tradition! We'll see!

All agree, however, for the impressive quality of the world of Final Fantasy: Ivalice! Some even claim that it is one of the best settings made ​​in the history of the Games! The setting is medieval, the atomosferà immersive and impressive details.

However, in short, I intend to post - who cares - a reseconto of my personal assessment, after having played at least a hundred hours!

As shown by recent data on purchases of the console, the spectacular graphics generated by powerful microprocessors, BluRay players, computing powers strabiglianti not always prove effective in selling (and marketing) of a console. Nintendo has passed all, staking everything about the unique controller (free hand controller or wiimote) wireless reacts to the position and orientation of the player!

This year we have seen the introduction of multi-touch, see Apple's iPhone for example. The Wii with its wiimote is perhaps an indication of some major change. For years now we hold the mouse between your hands to work on your PC or controller and Joypad to distract us with the Playstation. Is it time to focus not only on powerful microprocessors and artificial intelligence algorithms, some of the simplest innovation, looking more carefully at how you interact with a PC or a console and not with what you are interacting.

Here, then, to play tennis or go online to Stumble on Wii really becomes a new and refreshing, unconventional, but today more than ever. Hopefully it is just the beginning of a new era, where the interaction will prevent the action!

The new craze on the Web2.0 will also affect the market play the games online? Perhaps this has already happened for some time. Some of the concepts that underlie the web2.0 has long been used by numerous recreational experiences on the web. Online gamers are accustomed to using Ajax-style interface and know the advantage of having the software - the game - on a remote server.

In addition, this people on the network of players, had no problem to interface with the new pricing policies relating to these experiences. Pay only when you play or join with an annual fee to access the central server does not seem to have prevented the massive spread of online games! Indeed! On closer inspection many "players" are extremely pleased with the quality / price ratio compared to an approach to the console or DVD purchased at the store. All this shows also what has been overlooked aspect of online payment. It is evident from the number of players online around the world - and Italy - that there is no problem with credit cards and online transactions secure. Finally, update your online game with a single click makes the play-employees very happy.

What should be stressed, however, is that the differences with the web application using Ajax and derivatives, are many, if not many. If the approach - now - is a nice return to the concept of main-frame, the games have on their ability to use proprietary connections that go far beyond simple HTTP.
