One of my favourite games to date, its really easy to get hooked into the metal gear universe.
I hope for the next one they get rid of those loading screens though...
I think it would be a clever thing to do to reserve judgement on how 'fun' the game is until you've actually played it through. I think N4G has enough amateur 'journalists' populating the posts with 'articles' about games they've not even played yet.
All these posts from sites I've never heard of, from guys who write opinion blogs in the time between playing Modern Warfare and microwaving nachos is really killing the credibility of this site for me.
It's still fun re...
I'm happy as long as the game maintains the tense atmosphere and quality story of the first one- Dead Space was the first game in a long while I felt genuinely scared while playing, I would turn each corner with my plasma cutter at the ready. But there's nothing wrong with freshening the game up a little, you don't want it to be simply the first game again in a new environment (or maybe you do...?).
being the total graphics wh*re that i am, i think i'll enjoy this even more
Man I really want this game. I never played the first but've heard only good things...
My game budget though is 0 because I'm saving to go overseas and I've got a few pre-orders to deal with... someone wanna lend me a copy?
What did you expect? It's a Japanese RPG, they all suck.
I hope this doesn't put people off actually reading Inferno, I studied it at uni a few years ago and its fascinating.
When I heard they were making it into a game I thought it was little more than sacrilege. Turning such a classic piece of literature into a base level hack and slash is really tasteless...
Anyone think he's right about the release timetable of the Xbox 720?
I don't think so seeing it looks like they're attempting to stretch the life of the 360 with Natal.
Because people who bought ME1 are the people who bought ME2. It's not a system seller, its a game from a franchise established on 360, and its fan base are the ones buying it- its a particularly large fan base because ME is a particularly excellent franchise.
you've got your fanboy goggles on.
ME2 looks good, but I can cite two games on PS3 that look significantly better.
Most multiplats look better on 360- they're lead designed on it and ported over because its cheaper and easier. Old news, we all know that by now.
Because if you do, you'd notice that after he left, 2k released NBA2k10 which SUCKED on release (though significant, albeit poorly planned and implemented patching, has fixed it somewhat) and NBA Live, which Wang went to work on, got a whole lot better (but still not as good as previous 2k games).
I think the guys at 2kSports knew they screwed up big time with 2k10- the forums have been alight since it released last year with complaints and issues- and poached Wang back to help ...
smack talking kids suck. the people who get really high scores in multiplayer games are the ones who play smart and use tactics-
distract you and flank you, a nicely placed grenade, actually completing objectives etc etc.
consoles wars and fanboys aren't new. I used to buy Nintendo magazines with reader's sections that would have pictures people sent in of mario shooting sonic with a tommy gun etc.
fanboys exist because people sink alot of money into gaming- its an expensive hobby- and they then feel the need to justify and defend spending the vast amounts of money they do on gaming to people.
your a bad joke.
do yourself and your brain a favour- go to a bookstore, buy yourself a copy of the actual poem by Dante, and read that instead of saying things like this: 'A Devine comedy turned in a drama.' It's not a comedy, and this game is a pox on human culture.
Just a question: how do we know VG Chartz numbers stink? I'm not trying to say they don't just a legit question?
My theory is Sony has finally got its momentum but too late, it can't take over the xbox in overall sales this gen. But gamers talk about the console war as if at the end MS or Sony Corp. will throw in the towel because one outsold the other by a million or two by the next gen, as if.
There'll still be a PS4, there'll still be a 720 (or whatever it'll be called), and like this gen they'll both be good, both have good games, both have strengths and weaknesses and life will go on....
I'm still lukewarm on this game and that review didn't help. Maybe I'll pick it up it a month or two and wait for the community/strategies to develop a bit.
true, I saw an article on N4G a few days back saying 'Alan Wake' will blur the line between games and TV- from the people who made Alan Wake. Yet is it doing a disservice to gaming? Hardly.
Games like Alan Wake and Heavy Rain (I haven't played them but from what I've read) I think will show those who dismiss gaming as child's play that it can be a serious art form, the way TV shows and Hollywood movies are perceived to be.
Lately EA have been good methinks
