Beautiful, but no larger than 800x600, thanks

[GTAce]

Thx! +rep.

[curryking1]

Those FPSs and Oblivion don't so much scream impressive graphically, still look pretty sweet though, but Lair, wow! That's looks spectacular! They seemed to have improved the soldier stuff a lot too, and my my, the rest is looking awesome as well.

Fuel of War does look like BF2 on crack though, which is pretty cool. Graphics are pretty sweet, and if it goes Planetside styles with the extreme emphasis on teamwork and team battles, I'm all for it.

[Epix]

+rep just for the sheer number of scans. :)

[U-mpire]

Ummm the pages Elder Scrolls: Shivering Isles, Frontlines: Fuel of War, and Hour of Victory are specifically marked "Xbox 360/ PC".

Get rid of them. Otherwise thread = :locked:

[GTAce]

Shivering Isles and Frontlines are confirmed for PS3!
But i have no idea of Hour of Victory.^^

[U-mpire]

Don't mind me, I'm a loser.

[F089/H]

Looks good..But I haven't received like my last 3 Game Informers..I Saw the cover of the one in like December that had GRAW2..But I didn't own it....It was in the Game Stop...grrrr.

[Siraris]

Elder Scrolls article and Frontline only says 360 and PC??

[GTAce]

Where are your links then? The magazine says nothing about PS3 versions. Or are you hoping to get PS3 ports from the 360 and PC?

Frontlines listed by IGN PS3. (http://search.ign.com/products?genNav=true&query=frontlines&platformSearch=PlayStation%203)

Uhm with Shivering Isles im a little bit confused, i have read on a german site that it comes for PS3 too but i dont find an official announcement atm.

[VG Aficionado]

Nice scans! (not too great quality though, but OK). +rep!

There's something strange about this thread... it smells like a hairy being... the smell is familiar too...

Uhm with Shivering Isles im a little bit confused, i have read on a german site that it comes for PS3 too but i dont find an official announcement atm.UPDATE: 1UP contacted Bethesda to clear up confusion over the PS3 version, and they confirmed they have Shivering Isles in mind for PS3, but aren't talking about it right now because Oblivion itself has yet to ship. No worries, Sony gamer; the expansion is headed your way, too -- eventually.If you can trust 1UP (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3156470), that is.

[GTAce]

Lol :laugh: i was on 1up and read over it.^^
THX VG!

[McLaren]

Hour of Victory will sooner or later come to PS3....what WWII game has been exclusive??

[Cless]

Thanks for the scans. my hype for Lair went from 50 to 100.

@VG Aficionado
I smell something fishy too, oh yeah, u......p

i didn't fiddle enough with my scanner ever since i got it. i just tested a new scan and it looks good without the cross-hatch lines

[U-mpire]

I have that GI with BD on the cover. The scans look fine, in fact, better than anything I've seen on 360.

[VG Aficionado]

I have that GI with BD on the cover. The scans look fine (though textures are lacking).Your undercover skills are more lacking, that's for sure. By the way, I take that commentary of yours as confirming that Lair is freakin' great beyond your recognition indeed.

[Garfunkel]

+rep for the effort!

Is that you UC?......he's baaack...

[VG Aficionado]

+rep for the effort!

Is that you UC?......he's baaack...And gone again!

[GTAce]

Nope hes gone.... again. 8)

What can you find? Yeah the ps3 logo.

[GTAce]

Er wurde gebannt keine Sorge. ;)

Yeah i can write in german LOL

[VG Aficionado]

ZOMFGOK, I guess that will do... although it looks like it's yawning to me :chinese2: :laugh:

http://www.frontlinesgame.com/

What can you find? Yeah the ps3 logo.Great find! Thank you for pwning the FUD :salute:

[Sypher]

Are those shots from Lair ingame recent? Because I played the demo at CES and it looks horrible, then again it could have been an early build.

[Garfunkel]

crap that dragon looks fine.

[Pumpkin Head]

thanks love the scans.

[VideoGame mania]

I love watching this bs from the devs Oblivion on PC,x360
What Bethesda is trying to hide, we all know it's coming to the ps3

[Angelcurio]

Thanks for the scans.

[yoshaw]

ROFL!

On topic: LAIR PWNS!!!

Where's the "ZOMFG!!!!!" smiley? I need it!


Yea until that screenshot surfaced. I thought of LAIR as only a game with some flight mechanics and ground battles. Well I stand corrected gentlemen :book: hehe

The gameplay possibilities that these giant boss battles could bring to the table. What if we get eaten by one of the giants? What if we have to fight on foot with one of these things on it's neck, torso wherever. Imagine the puniness we'd become when off of our dragon onto this scaled boss :shocked:

Arrrrrrgh, my mind is going all Shadow of the Colossus on me right now. And I'm loving it!! ;)

[Garfunkel]

what about, if we get eaten by one of them we must fly through a series of obstacles like bladder, kidneys, heart and stomach and fly out the dragons ass?

[frosty]

^lol.

[Garfunkel]

all the while, other things the dragon has deemed as food chases you down, gets decomposed and if your not quick, engulf you in assorted colours of excrement where you must eat your way out of?

[wotter]

Nice scans, Lair is just o_O :aimhappy:

[yoshaw]

all the while, other things the dragon has deemed as food chases you down, gets decomposed and if your not quick, engulf you in assorted colours of excrement where you must eat your way out of?

I don't know whether to call that funny as hell or pukefully disgusting! LOL

[Garfunkel]

what if the dragon gets constipated and you can't get out?

ok, i'll stop this now in threat of getting banned.

[stanDarsh]

^Too late! :banned2: ;)

But you're right, let's get back to topic, and stop talking about Dragon's bowel movements!

[Kabbage]

Is it me or is that Giant Wurm Dragon thing in LAIR shaping up to be the most impressive Character *Graphically and Coolness* seen in next gen games so far.

Oh and + for the scans.

[curryking1]

I dunno about that, but it certainly looks amazing. I really like the character models in MGS4, I think they might be the best character models in a game as of yet.

[gozirah]

Is it me or is that Giant Wurm Dragon thing in LAIR shaping up to be the most impressive Character *Graphically and Coolness* seen in next gen games so far.

Oh and + for the scans.

What kind of aerodynamics could possibly keep those things in the air?

[Garfunkel]

What kind of aerodynamics could possibly keep those things in the air?

Quad 5,000 KW Rolls Royce motors.

maybe you could do it with 3 but they would have to be the 6,000 KW models.

[yoshaw]

What kind of aerodynamics could possibly keep those things in the air?

If you speak of the giant boss then it's the NECK. If you speak of the dragon, they are called WINGS.

Cheers to you too mate :angelgrin

[LaLiLuLeLo]

What kind of aerodynamics could possibly keep those things in the air?

It's this new technology, especially for fantasy stories caled, SD, or Suspension of Disbelief.

Ass.

You've accepted that dragons, are in fact coexisting with men, fighting battles with them, and that they breathe fire, and these men jump from one dragon to the next with ease, slaying them, it's not so much more of a stretch to say, 'and they can fly'. Get off it, man.

[VG Aficionado]

It's this new technology, especially for fantasy stories caled, SD, or Suspension of Disbelief.ROFL!!!

[jaxmkii]

or one of P&Ws 120" turbo fan Engines:wank:

EDIT: secret to dragon flight leaked out!!! Teh Tuhth!

[F089/H]

Hahahahaha I like the flow of this thread...Although I saw Plenty of Oblivion this Summer(All Summer) I never played the DC add-ons..Like Mehrunes Razor and Knights of the Nine. But I hope they could squeeze it all on the BD for PS3..

[McLaren]

i also added scans of Ninja Turtles on the 1st page

[BruceWayneIII]

Here's the extended Lair trailer being played on PS3 and then on the PSP via remote play:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F142oPTIXeU

...if you have nothing else to do :)

[yoshaw]

That was the complete trailer. Wow! Do we have this trailer in HD in the video sticky?

VG?

[BruceWayneIII]

^ if not, I have it in HD :)

[dnpmakkah]

Yep that was VERY nice. Can't wait to see it in full glory.

[GodMachine_Iridius_Dio]

And that they breathe fire

Completely off topic, but...

Surprisingly there is a chemically sound basis for that. Dragonology proposes muscular venomous glands that have adapted to produce chemicals that ignite on contact with eachother and with oxygen - A binary napalm of sorts, and there is a pseudo precedent for it already - There is an insect that produces chemical mixtures inside two glands that when secreted, combined together, and in contact with oxygen, become boiling hot.


Dio

[VG Aficionado]

VG?Yes, it used to be there in HD. TGS 2K6 trailer is like an extended E3 2K6 trailer, but the link is broken now.

DioFine, but this doesn't explain why it seems to have unlimited fuel... unless it's wearing a bandana... or unless we don't know yet that it will have to eat a few soldiers from time to time to reload!

[Garfunkel]

*ralph voice*

solders are the dragons food!

[yoshaw]

Ahhh I see, thanks for the input bro! :)

^ if not, I have it in HD :)

Well, you heard the man bruce. Yoroshikow with the trailer :thumbr:

if I'm not mistaken, those are Fire Ants. yet still, actually creating flame is not been proven, and I don't think it is bio and ecologically feasible as it would do much more damage than what it should be meant to do.

as for dragons, there is a story about the Komodo Dragon in the Komodo Islands in Indonesia. it is said that people see it moving its read tongue in and out from a distance and they thought it was breathing fire.

interesting stuff.

The one I was speaking of is a Barbardier Beetle.

ah, yes. i forgot about those. saw them in a nature show.

regardless of likelihood, the concept of dragons has always fascinated man. you almost find something about them in every culture and folk tale. monsters that soar the skies, fearsome roars and with amazing powers.

[curryking1]

Fine, but this doesn't explain why it seems to have unlimited fuel... unless it's wearing a bandana... or unless we don't know yet that it will have to eat a few soldiers from time to time to reload!

Well, nothing is unlimited. A person must eat to move around and make and use all the chemicals they need. The beetle that Dio is talking about will eat to replenish those chemicals in it's gland.

Except, ya.... Bandana, you got me there hahaha. Or magazine/glands shaped like an infinity symbol. "Yep, that'll give you unlimited ammo."

Btw Dio, thanks for the heads up, things like this really spur the imagination. Maybe one day, dragons will exist, but of course, there would need to be luck, and an environment that would promote the evolution of such a thing. Maybe, one day, maybe. As long as it gives the 'thing' a survival advantage and by chance also nothing kills the thing off, then maybe dragons will exist one day.

They will never, of course, have infinite ammo. That's simply not possible, they could keep evolving to keep getting more and more of it if evolutionary radiation of any/all kinds promotes dragons with 'more firebreathing capability.' Of course first this firebreathing capability must come from mutation, or simply an improvement over these less amazing chemicals that come out and become very hot.

One day, one day.......:stirpot:

@Z - I don't think there are any dragons whatsoever in Hindu or Muslim culture/folk tale, FYI & IIRC.

you take a very complicated road there. I would make it much simpler than that. ;)
@Z - I don't think there are any dragons whatsoever in Hindu or Muslim culture/folk tale, FYI & IIRC.
I have no idea, but I would be surprised if there wasn't something resembling our concept of dragons in their cultures. imaginations will take different turns here and there, but they have to cross check somewhere.

and no, I have extremely poor knowledge of the arabian culture. just because I live here doesn't mean I know this stuff. all I know about it is what I say in TV- like everything else I know about cultures. yeah, I need to travel more, but I don't have the resources to do so. pitty.

[Garfunkel]

stuff traveling! TV is all you need!

[curryking1]

Well, being a Hindu myself and being reasonably versed in my own culture, and knowing quite a bit about Muslims, there is nothing like a dragon I can possibly think of.

I'm assuming that in most cultures dragons represent something like strength and such, and in folklore have much to do with either fear or wealth or other similar things.

In Hinduism, there is no similar parallel I can think of. I think the closest thing you will get is that there are many animals in Indian folklore and religion and whatnot, but the roles the animals play are very, very different, I would only call them very slightly similar if I would at all.

If you ever wondered why Sher-kan (english sp?) is a tiger, it's because of the strong presence of the tiger as a symbol, one of the Hindu gods also rides a tiger, many religious stories involve animals like tigers, monkeys, elephants, etc. etc. It's not much of a coincidence that Jungle Book contains elephants, tigers, monkeys, and panthers because it is heavily based on Indian folklore.

There really isn't anything like a dragon I can recall. There isn't such a role I would guess. Most of Hindu teachings of religion and the stories involve legends and kings who are people, and animals. I doubt there would ever be a film influenced by Indian culture to involve dragons, because the role a dragon might play in one culture is assuredly represented by another figure in Hindu teachings.

I can't find a similarity for dragons lol. The only thing I will say is that there are various gods with human or animals figures, one represents wealth, one represents good fortune, one is like the 'be-all' god for lack of a better term, and many more. There simply isn't a dragon to be found in either folklore or religious teachings.

Dragons are one place that Hindu and Muslim teachings and folklore do not cross check. Things do cross paths often, but there are also strong differences. That's what makes the world interesting ;)

Btw, it seems you have the impression that Hindus and Muslims are part of only the area of Arabia which I'm guessing is the Middle East area..... That's not true lol. FYI, Muslims and Hindus together are like 2 billion people of the 6 billion people in the world. I can assure you, we are not confined to Arabia or the Arabic surroundings. South Asia is where most Hindus are from, a bit above that in areas like Pakistan, North India and the Middle East are where many Muslims reside. Many Africans are also Muslim. I dunno if you just used the wrong word there accidentally, just thought I'd clarify about that.

Btw, just to give you an idea of the art you would find in Hindu temples and such places...

http://home.att.net/~s-prasad/hanuman.jpg

This second one is rather I just found this and thought it was funny, I've never seen this before, I did know people make cartoons about religious tales, I've never seen one though lol

Sometimes the references are simply to serpentine beings - Not all dragons of folklore were firebreathers. So if you've got any great serpents in there they count in the mythos, too. If not, ah well, almost every culture has em in there somewhere, but not every single one.

Dio

[Garfunkel]

this has gotten very far off topic...

[VG Aficionado]

SO Shivering Isles is coming to PS3?Most likely. It would be quite stupid of Bethesda not to release it for PS3 as well.

this has gotten very far off topic...Agreed :-p Thank the usual troll for that too.

Dio
Serpent tales tend to be near sea settlements. by 'dragons' I would include any overly large animal with supernatural abilities, i.e. fire-breathing, size to agility, etc. so yes, serpents can be included in the same category.
this has gotten very far off topic...
but very entertaining. :)

[Danji Ikari]

...and interesting to boot!
