PC Games Hardware published pictures of a new HD Alyx model of Fakefactory's Cinematic Mod 10. It seems like the modder reacts to the harsh critique that followed the shots published the day before yesterday (as reported on N4G) and replaces the Adriana Lima like Alyx with a better version that looks like the real Alyx again. This new model is based on the actress Jamil Mullen who had been the original real-life model for Alyx during the development of Half-Life 2.
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
The most disappointing and infamous video game endings even sour the overall thoughts of a game. Most of these titles represent some of the finest entries in their respective series, marred by an ending we can't quite forgive.
There is no game called Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2, but Rebirth had a great ending imo. Felt robbed by the ending at first, but the more I've seen it and during my 3rd playthrough, I started to understand and realize a lot more that make me appreciate the ending.
I was enjoying FFVII Remake, even though those whispers throughout the game were annoying. But the ending was so bad that I don't even want to play Rebirth. On top of that, from what I saw on reviews, the ending of Rebirth is even worse.
Also, I'm glad to see Zero Time Dilemma being recognized as the trainwreck it is. After the amazing two first games (especially the near perfect second one), the low quality of the trilogy end is baffling. The new characters are bad, the old characters don't feel like themselves, a surprise "alien technology" pops out of nowhere, the big twist was like "eh?", and it doesn't really finish the story nor explains the loose threads from the second game.
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
Much, much better.
A - Alyx wanker fanboys need to grow up, get girlfriends/wives and call it a day.
B - The more versions of Alyx / Half-Life I see, the worse they look for some reason. (Look at the pic above, does that really appeal to you? I can't speak for everyone, but the original appeal of Alyx was that she was smart and sexy, not in a Lara Croft way, but more in a really hot neighbor kind of way. And she is not a skank, so the shrinking clothes make her less appealing).
C - None will ever be as good as the original, so please stop with the mods and work on something new and creative.
-End Rant.
People are really desperate for a woman. I mean jesus! Its just a video game nothing more. Stop smacking your meat to a fake woman alright!!!
In Half-Life,Alyx appears to be of a mixed race. In the picture above, she looks....white. Actually, the FIRST picture got the mixed race thing right but failed because the character didn't look like Alyx. The most current picture has tried to replicate the facial structure but is missing key elements that makes Alyx look like Alyx....further more, features that make Alyx looked "mixed". But I think most people forgetting the point of the whole subject in general.(Note: I'm not referring to this thread) The reason Alyx was "made over" in general was to showcase Fakefactory's Cinematic Mod 10. From a graphical/technical standpoint I think its excellent.
This was already reported a few days ago http://www.n4g.com/pc/News-... But seriously I cant wait for the Cinematic mod 10. I wont be using that alyx model. But I hope he does do a high res version of the original alyx just to match the rest of his high res pack.
