Once again, being female and mildly attractive has lead the press to overstate a person's ability.  She's not that great.

Hell's Highway was actually superjanked from the original gameplay shown.  Go watch the first 'gameplay' footage from E3 2005 or 2006, the game looks good, but now it looks muddy and has that lame blood splatter/explosion effect all UE3 games have.

What did she do at Gearbox besides sucking hard?

Damn. She brings bad things with her

As announced yesterday, 3D Realms has hired Corrinne Yu to head up development of technology here at 3D Realms. Released today is our official press release announcing Ms. Yu's hiring by us. Here are a couple of small tidbits from the full press release (which is no longer online):

* 3D Realms is starting a new technology development group that will focus solely on 3D engine development with the goal of providing this technology for internally developed games, and for licensing to interested third-party developers.
* Prey and Duke Nukem 5 (tentative title) will be the first games to use this technology.

 :lol

And Hells Highway is U3 anyway. And Prey was Doom 3. Bah

If I remember correctly, Corrinne Yu was engaged in a Nerd Fight with John Carmack back in the day about renderers or something, she was rewriting chunks of the Quake engine for ION Storm and Carmack was getting all upset and calling her out because how dare a GIRL critique his masterpiece  :o

Then again that might have been a dream I had

but no one could save that thing

prey would have been a little bit better than "meh" if it challenged you by, you know, letting you die once in a while

but it had pussy walls, so there you go

having read some impressions from people that played it at e3 you should be worried about hitting ANYTHING.

fucked up hitboxes ftl.

Not being able to shoot anything is a BiA staple, but I do remember them saying that you could actually play it like a CoD now, so I guess that was bullshit.

Hells Highway looks Ace.

i'm just going to assume that you haven't seen any of the recent videos

hells highway is simply two years too late.

i'll be skipping it and going for world at war. i may hold a low opinion of treyarch, but flamethrowers are awesome.

Er, Hell's Highway doesn't look too great. Is she responsible for that, and if so, why should we be happy that she's working on a Halo game? Halo 3 wasn't entirely ugly, most of the outdoor environments looked quite good. Even if texture quality was sometimes absolute shit, but which game is immune of that?
Title: Re: Corrinne Yu to unjank halo graphics
Post by: Jansen on August 28, 2008, 06:03:38 PM
cod3 multiplayer was awesome

outside of the myriad of networking issues. sure.

there was nothing quite like starting a match and falling endlessly. or the dreaded loading screen of doom.

damn almost forgot one of the best bugs of all. the rare one that could occasionally freeze your console should the host leave.

oh shit and how about those fucking pricks that could get under the map and kill you.

yes, cod3 mp was so awesome.
Title: Re: Corrinne Yu to unjank halo graphics

i had shitloads of problems with cod2, though

Brother in Arms used to look awesome. But it got delayed like a year and half. Aliens looks awesome though.

Borderlands, i dunno, maybe the scale of it will mask what so far looks like a average looking game.

i have noticed that gearbox has kept pretty quiet recently about bia while pumping borderlands heavily

bia sent to die?

survey says "maybe"
Title: Re: Corrinne Yu to unjank halo graphics
Post by: cool breeze on August 28, 2008, 06:42:02 PM
For what it's worth, I think BiA looks to be a more interesting game than CoD5.
Title: Re: Corrinne Yu to unjank halo graphics
Post by: Jansen on August 28, 2008, 06:57:18 PM
videos recently released on psn back up my claim. also gamersyde has a video from leipzig. the game is ass visually with some truly terrible character models (the faces. UGH!) and it's 2 years too fucking late because of how awesome it looked back when they first demoed it in 06 and how it was supposed to come out in early 07.

COD3 wasn't so terrible that I've immediately written off 5.  Sure, there were some notable flaws, but people have complained loudly about them, and I'm willing to give Treyarch a chance to see if they've listened.  Still, I'd be incredibly shocked if the MP component holds a candle to 4.
Title: Re: Corrinne Yu to unjank halo graphics
Post by: cool breeze on August 28, 2008, 07:10:44 PM
CoD5 does look like it will be good, and I am not thinking it will be a bad game at all.  All I am saying is that, if I was to buy a WW2 shooter  between now and next year, it would be the one that focuses on squad mechanics instead of the same roller coaster/linear gameplay again. 

And I don't really have anything against Treyarch, I am just a bit worn out on those types of games.  I actually will probably be buying the Quantum of Solace game, which is also made by them.
