Seriously, too many "was"es in one title for a game that's NOT EVEN OUT YET.
Give us a break--we're all dying to buy it, you don't need to tell us why we should.
Haha are you kidding me? Both look incredible! No comparison needed here--get both.
Also, I'm not even going to debate mp--both will be very good in their own ways, but Socom 4 is going to get my mp time this year.
Seriously, nobody gives a shit what you (IGN) pulled off against bots in single player, that's pathetic! You want to show us some impressive kills, do it in multiplayer. I doubt IGN reviewers have the skills it takes though--they're probably as good at playing mp as they are at writing objective reviews.
lol take a chill-pill buddy--I said, I quote: "SOME OF THE REASONS WHY ***I*** DIDN'T BUY IT" (emphasis added). Also, in my list, *twice* I wrote "PERSONAL TASTE" (emphasis added). Do you know what PERSONAL means? It means how you're taking my comment, only referring to my taste, not but-hurtedness.
It's not because of the demo. (I did play it, btw.)
For me, it's personal taste. I just don't consider a game which has your enemies floating slow-mo in mid-air waiting to make sure you have time to pull off the headshot as requiring any skill whatsoever. Also, bullet-sponge.
Hell, if the game didn't pretend so hard to require skill, and didn't try so hard to be offensive and thus fail so hard at it (just like trolls; it's the obvious ...
Had the game been good enough it wouldn't have needed to squeeze itself in a gap between big-name releases to begin with. Word of mouth would have made it sell despite being a new IP. You know... like Demon's Souls--which, by the way, from a producer/developer point of view, was a WAY more risky bet than Enslaved should have been.
Here, I'll try to help by giving some reasons why I didn't buy it:
-Short length, no replay value.
-Uninspired button-mashing gameplay.
-Boring and totally scripted platforming.
-Unappealing characters and story (personal taste).
-Unattractive art style (personal taste).
-Another Unreal engine game.
-Did I mention it was short?
How they expected ANYONE to *want* to shell out 60$ for this is beyond me. <...
ANOTHER ONE?? When will the blame-game articles about THIS DAMN GAME end already? It just wasn't that good. Blame whatever you want, at the end of the day, consumers just don't flock to buy mediocre games. I know, who'd a' thought, right?
Again, NO, just because you bought something doesn't mean you can do whatever you want with it. I could explain it myself, but I'll just refer you below @madfox instead.
Yes, the rap was funny--because it was pathetic.
But: "The truth of the matter is, if you buy something, you own the right to do whatever you want with said item" is completely false.
lol, suing... for a firmware update! How pathetic. If you're affected, you should've taken the necessary precautions beforehand. Didn't? Then wait for the fix. DON'T GO SUING for a firmware update!
It'll be fixed before this thing ever goes before a judge anyway--*then* how stupid will you look? I'd love to see that, actually--pure hilarity.
Agreed.
Suggestion 1: stop making them.
Suggestion 2: (because they're too greedy to obey suggestion 1) stop making nubs think they can play FPSs. Take out aim assist, take out shooting through walls, take out all those perks and equipment that help campers, increase number of bullets it takes to kill, increase weapon kickback and scope wander.
MAG DOES NOT LOOK LIKE CRAP.

Random HD MAG montage: http://www.youtube.com/watc...
Those are definitely not BAD graphics.
@fanboys:
Have you even played MAG? What you were trying to say is: "the way the maps are set up places 32 players AGAINST 32 others". The minimun you'll ever get in MAG is ...
Doesn't say anything about the employees. Maybe they absorbed them into the company. Either way, it's a growing industry, I'm sure devs can find jobs at a different studio within a reasonable amount of time when their closes.
Article about a sale... seriously. Here's the direct link:

Fallout 3 and Borderlands for 30$--tempting!
This should be filed as OPINION, not article. If it was an article, they'd have quoted a Sony rep saying that the company was focusing their efforts on portables. This is just some writer giving his thoughts on Sony's direction, and may or may not be true. Just because they're making an actual effort to launch their next portable console with the best chance they can give it, doesn't mean they're focusing on home consoles any less than they used to.
Agree with everything you said.
But business-wise I see the advantage for Sony: this promotes their digital cameras to PS3 users. Just like they used the PS3 to get people to buy HDTVs, they're trying to promote their cameras!
What are you talking about--doesn't this mean they own the Bloody Roar IP now? Much better chance of Konami making good of it than Hudson.
Writer got it backwards: obviously KZ3 doesn't need Move, but Move needs KZ3.
D'uh.
Too bad you can't detract bubbles for someone's opinion sucking.
I'm playing the KZ3 *beta* right now, and I'm addicted. It's ONE map, ffs, and I can't stop playing it. "No fun factor"? Lmao you fail.
