Apparently Dead or Alive will process tans, including tan lines, on the girls as you play through the game. If you change swimsuits, the tan lines will be visible, and it will calculate tham all in real time.
All I can say is…WEIRDED OUT! I guess if you really appreciate virtual women with balloon like boobs, the tan lines might make your fantasy a little more real? Creeeeepyy….

Yes, now you can PvP with your buddies who aren’t on your server. Also the patch adds a whole bunch of other stuff that you’ll be better at finding out about than me.
So far people seem to have a positive view of the new patch.

OK, well it may not be a deathmatch, Crysis will have a team-based game mode that will supposedly take “up to” 10 hours to finish. You will start with your normal FPS squad, then acquire credits and promotions to get better gear, then take over vehicle and gear production facilities, then raid alien crash sites to powerup your stuff, and THEN you can go take out your enemie’s base. There will be an in-game day and night cycle every 2 hours.
Man, I’d rather have a simpler game with more maps under different conditions. UT2004 Onslaught is about my limit. But I’m also pretty sure I’m not the only one who can (or wants to) devote hours on end to playing a game like this online.
Those people are already playing World of Warcraft. (OK, cheap dig, jeez!)

[url=http://www.joystiq.com/2006/08/22/will-resistance-fom-justify-the-ps3-pricetag/]This article on Joystiq[/url] brings back one of the arguments that has been levelled against Microsoft’s choice of a normal DVD drive in the Xbox 360. Apparently Resistance: Fall of Man takes up 22 Gigs already, and it’s not even done yet. I had kind of thought that this might be possible. Still, most games so far don’t seem to be filling up a DVD9 yet, and multiple disks don’t bother me until up about 4 or 5.
It’ll be interesting to see how this pans out, and if the “no games on HD-DVD” stance that Xbox is taking will last.
(Note: the article was saying the game is too big for a single-layer HD-DVD, but I haven’t seen anything that says the 360 won’t be able to read dual-layers. I think the idea is just crazy talk)
