The wonderful team over at Kontrol Freek, recently gave us a chance to test out their new products FPS and Speed Freek. While we’ve had a solid month to test out their products we’ve given each of them a solid 25 hours plus for each, so we know how well each of them works. I’m going to take this chance here to thank all of Kontrol Freek now for giving us this chance to review their products. Now on to the review!
To start the review we will first explain a bit of background information. If you are on the 360-Hq homepage click read more to check out the full review!
Since the trend right now seems to be telling the world that your new cool game has pushed the limits of a console and then put out a game 10 times better next year i kind of need to side with the Criterion team here, much like the consoles of old they always find some way to get a little more speed and a little more space so suck it up and get to pushing harder.
eurogamer.net posts: Burnout Paradise developer Criterion reckons that developers who talk about maxing out the potential of a games console are being a bit silly.
"That's proof that you're not the best," technical director Richard Parr told Eurogamer's Digital Foundry channel. "It means you're out of ideas."
"You always find new ways to do things, the constraints lift. Not just with a new console generation but with every game you do," senior engineer Alex Fry added. "Whether it's a sequel or whether it's a new game, you learn to do things differently... better. The constraints go away because you learn. While it's nice to say you've maxed something out, there's not really any point."
Fry and Parr were speaking to Digital Foundry for today's Burnout Paradise tech retrospective, which explores the origins and processes behind one of the current generation's most respectable game engines.
Fry and Parr explain how the team set about constructing a world that performs equally well on PS3, Xbox 360 and latterly PC despite the difficulties experienced by their colleagues at other studios.
For all the Burnout fans that just cant get enough down loadable content for this game it looks like you might be weeks away from some massive add on action, the map is big but this trailer seems to be doing it justice.
Tell me you don't want to go at this map full speed and we can start getting you the help you need today.
