Pacific Rim SlideFlow

Theme by uLtRaMa6nEt1c

I found this super banner on the interwebs and thought it would be dope if I could do something with it.

The theme and script is working and stable thanks in large part to Faxtron. I have dubbed it ‘SlideFlow’. I will be posting the script for everyone in the forum soon πŸ™‚

Faxtron

@uLtRaMa6nEt1c & Doom => uLtRaMa6nEt1c / Doom: Yep, that’s a valid reason, Ultra… but I think it’s related only to portable consoles, which are in direct competition with phones and all that stuff. Phones and all other handheld devices in general are now able to do lots of things and they also have good games and very nice conversions… but if you really want to play, you necessarily need to get a home console (or a computer, according to preferences) so that you can comfortably sit on your couch or at the desk in your room and play your favourite… Read more »

@ultramagnet yeah, i was gonna say something about that cloud. i dont know mutch about it but i heard it has something to do with storage, so the games can be stored there and external devices can be equipped with the operating system somehow or something. idk. so you can play on your sony cell phone like the vita, or your sony computer television, and the essence of having a solid system to hold on to will be eliminated, by the apps, and the clouds, im sure the ps4 is going to be eppic the power of this system will… Read more »

> I believe what your saying is correct with PlayStation and the like being an app in a TV or other device – hence the cloud.

@OPTIMUS. that part abut consoles losing ther identity is part of what i was talking about, in my opinion a game console should only be what it was primarily built for with absolutely no other distractions, it should be a network for gaming. not a network for everything.. and thats part of the reason why i said this may be the last gen of console. your absolutely right about that. it is losing its identity as a console and becoming more evolved into ‘something else’ its evolving into something that is growing out of what the essence of a gaming… Read more »

> they are trying to do it for the reasons I stated below. Now you gotta get your mouse & keyboard to the couch or sacrifice a little responsiveness with a controller, lol.

Wolf

I don’t get why consoles are trying to become multimedia boxes when that’s what a smart TV is for and guess what I’ve already got one so hook that up to a PC and I’ve got a way better experience.

uLtRaMa6nEt1c

@OPTIMUS > Also the reason why consoles are losing their identity is because of competition. Especially from the mobile market. These hand held devices can do everything. Phone, internet, movies , games, GPS, camera, alarm clock, music player/recorder etc. The console manufacturers have to figure out a way to make you buy their console instead of a device that can do way more stuff. They have to add some of that functionality to the console. Netflix and other TV/movie apps are a great way to do that because watching that at home on a nice HDTV is def better than… Read more »

@DemiGod, TheLoneWolf989, uLtRaMa6nEt1c, Doom & everyone: Well, guys, it’s not a matter of being a fanboy and/or making console war, or graphics, or which console is more performing and stuff like that. I agree with the fact that graphics can immerse you in a game better than before (so, more power = more graphics = better experience) but I think all are now too addicted to this stuff, and they’re forgetting the REAL meaning of video gaming. But for me, there’s another and simple point: consoles are losing their identity as “game machines”… Computers have been created for work, while… Read more »

@rik: Hey, friend! Well, actually I wasn’t worried for my theme… it’s just that I noticed that recently is happening that too often the themes remain on the main page for a very short time (as I said, only 3 days or so): I mean, you don’t even have the time to see them on the site that they already have been replaced by others… I guess it probably depends on how many themes are queued waiting to be put on the page, but I think it would be better if there was a specific “staying time” for each theme… Read more »

i dont know mutch about computers but i think you cant do better than a pc. although the price of a ps4 is insane for a system like this. i totally thought it would be more expensive at first, as soon as i saw what it could do i was like this thing is gonna be a million dollars.. lol. im gonna hold on to my ps3 for a while, ps4 is super awsome n stuff, but ps3 is ‘still’ super awsome too. pluss the price of ps3 games will go down, hardware will be cheaper, ps4 titles will be… Read more »

@uLtRaMa6nEt1c I don’t think it is a heated debate but I think he does since he is a demigod and all. PC is best for multiplayer for sure. And GDDR5, does he realize that it’s based on GDDR3 and although better in some tasks it’s worst in others plus every graphics card nowadays has 1/2GB of GDDR5 so the PS4 doesn’t really have 8GB of ram but 6GB. The graphics card in the PS4 is the power of a 7850 but it’s only because it’s got an extreme overclock. It may have a 10 year plan but it won’t last… Read more »

uLtRaMa6nEt1c

I didn’t realize this was a heated debate.

I work with a dude who’s a PC Gamer. He mostly plays MMOs and multiplayer. The PC is the perfect platform for that right now. That may change with the next gen and cross platform gaming. I don’t think this is the last console gen. There’s at least a 10 year plan for next gen. We’ll have to wait and see, but I’m excited for what’s coming in the next year.

DemiGod7

Where do you build your PC? Do me a favor and visit the forums here in this site, and check the PlayStation 4 topic I have opened. Read the stats. Lower mid PC? If anything, I don’t know how many PC’s worldwide are equipped with a GDDR5. Also, in order for me to build a PC with half the power of the PS4 (i5, medium graphics card) it costed at least 720 euros (almost twice the price of the console). My friend’s PC is a gaming one, costed him 1,200 euros and it’s still not as fast as PS4. You… Read more »

PC has had 3D for years. Also PS4 is not a top of the line PC, it’s a lower mid of the line PC.

Microsoft and Sony make a loss on the consoles for years http://go.ign.com/12Bnklw http://bit.ly/9fsZlW but the way they get the money is through advertising, PS Plus and PS store. What I meant about the graphics is they help immerse you as well as the story does. I know console gaming isn’t going anywhere anytime soon but give it 5-10 years and they will be gone.

uLtRaMa6nEt1c

Also, Games in 3D are REAL DOPE (when done right). Black Ops 2, Uncharted 3, Arkham City, Shadow of the Colossus, and Super Stardust look insane in 3D. 3D blu-rays too. I don’t know if PC does that, but I love my PS3 for that. That’s it from me for now πŸ˜€

uLtRaMa6nEt1c

> Rockstar gave XBOX the exclusive rights for GTA 4 with the DLC initially. And Chinatown wars with Nintendo initially. But Rockstar is still a console company as you said, for now.

DemiGod7

Again, it’s not the same. The consoles have been around for 30+ years, they are a part of the gaming community, they won’t be going away anytime soon because they are immensely popular and successful. Also, you don’t work in either Sony or Microsoft, so how do you know whether they’ll be having losses or not? Story is not an argument, games coming out for PC and console have the same story regardless of graphics. Also, take the strongest PC out there. They cannot run the exclusives like PS3 which is why there are not emulators out there that supprort… Read more »

@DemiGod7 & TheLoneWolf989 > What I agree with and don’t agree with: I care about graphics and performance. I’ve played tons of 2, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 bit games. No more. If it ain’t HD I can’t do it. Skyward Sword is an awesome game. I couldn’t do it. It wasn’t HD. While the PS4 is comparable mid and top of the line PCs today, in 2 to 4 years PC graphics and hardware will far surpass PS4. While the PS4 will remain a PS4 for 10+ years, PCs will double and triple in performance. And the mouse… Read more »

Don’t care for Steam, really, Steam has way better offers than PS Plus and has way more free games, when ever i’m on console I play with headphones and so do a lot of other people and a 19″ screen, who the hell would play with that? You can play with a controller on PC easily it’s just a choice. Performance and graphics are important, the graphics immerse you in the game play as well as the story does and performance makes everything smooth. Yes some titles are exclusive to console but remember there are titles that are exclusive to… Read more »

PC is far, far from a better experience. It’s not even compared to consoles. What, better shading? 60fps and 1920×1080 full HD? Anti-Aliasing? Nope, we don’t care for all that, we don’t really care for Steam either (PS Plus) and PS4 is becoming more like a PC either ways. It’s stronger than PC (it costs 400. The day you can build a PC with 400 that is as powerful as the PS4, then they will be the same. Including peripherals as well). Most people don’t get this, but the best experience and one of the reasons we buy consoles is… Read more »

I said PC gaming is going up not PC sales since most gamers will build their own or get someone to build them one. Yes console sales are going up but not for their purpose of gaming but for Netflix etc.. Also most console buyers buy them for their cheapness and/or because they don’t know that PC is a better experience.

. Shizzy > Thank you.
Faxtron and myself will most definitely share the script when it is stable.

The first person to upload a theme with this style was Saqurado which is stable, but he/she is not around often to trade info.

I’m making a tutorial for the Ultra SlideShow which is an easy, open, and fixed alternative to GlowBall’s Alpha SlideShow.

Mr. Shizzy

Awesome!! Love this new theme style!
Will you be sharing the script when you get it fixed to your liking?

Love it man, keep up the great work! πŸ˜€

uLtRaMa6nEt1c

Thanks everyone. I’m trying to fix the script with MAJOR help from Faxtron.

DemiGod7

Huh, that’s pretty funny cause I have been hearing the exact opposite. PC sales have been declining, certain games have been releasing on console primarily (e.g most Rockstar games) and if anything, hundreds of devs are excited for the next gen, and I am not talking about just the indies that have great deals with Sony. Ubisoft, Gearbox Software, EA, all the big companies can finally create those online experinces they always wanted. Meanwhile, there is crazy demand for the next gen since both XB1 and PS4 are selling like crazy at major retailers (Gamestop, Best Buy) or even online… Read more »

@DemiGod7 I’m sorry about what I said but you have to understand that it’s annoying for someone to down vote without giving a reason. About the games, there maybe 140 games being developed but there mostly indie games that will also be found on PC or already are e.g. War Thunder. Console gaming is going down and this has been proven, I read an article that said about 40% of Xbox 360’s aren’t used for gaming also PC gaming is now on the rise so all the PS4 is doing is stopping PC gamers from getting games they want. And… Read more »

DemiGod7

, I am not the one who downvoted but……you’re kinda wrong. People expect much more from PS4 besides inFamous and GT. There are over 140 games being developed right now for the console. Just wait it out a bit, it might be as successful as PS2, who knows.

I get a -1 for talking bad about the PS4, well we all know your a fanboy who won’t comment because he/she’ll look like a dick.

Wolf

You’ve done a great job on this theme +1. It’s a shame that themes on this site have come so far but will be useless when PS4 comes πŸ™ and by the time PS4 does come out i’ll be on PC, maybe if there was an option for different graphics cards in the PS4 I would get it but there isn’t. The only thing that will attract people to PS4 is Infamous and Gran Turismo and because of them I just might get a PS4 but there isn’t much hope πŸ™

rik

wow. truly spectacular

ultra i know that you’ll get the hang of this, but for a first time effort it is well done.

Optimus i currently have your static theme on my ps3 πŸ™‚ you did a stellar job my friend. yogosan would be proud!

OPTIMUS

What…? New themes already?
Man, the last ones have been on the page for only 3 days O_o
Ah well…

: Wow! Great job, my friend, both themes are awesome, and very good icons!
Lol! I was using the same banners for my theme, but then I opted for the “tech version” with the Jaegers specs…
Very well done, +1! πŸ˜€

Faxtron

Good job ultra with both themes. Thanks !

Hamilton

Thank You & awesome work πŸ™‚ now do The Lone Ranger -_- lol

DemiGod7

We need more original ideas, as I said in the messages….a job well done!
