I've been down on this game, for a couple weeks now. It was originally one of my most anticipated games of the year, and then EA started tripping DICE themselves up. Graphics are very important to BF3 and I hope they make a difference, because I would always consider eating my words if proven wrong.
Sometimes you take for granted how amazing U# looks, then this happens.
I smell GOTY nominations.
After some deliberation, I've decided if they can get close to what COD4 did for me (4th favorite game of all time) I will but this game. Black Ops was a decent attempt but it lacked polish, MW3 could very well do it.
Why would it be BS?
I may be somewhat disappointed in the BF3 beta, but in all fairness, you can't compare it to a fully finished game.
Always gameshark low-balling the crap out of games. Rage is no way near a D+, just like how they gave gears 3 a c+. Like what? Their reviews often scream nothing but hit-grabbing.
SO F***** RAD!
I haven't been this blown away by a commercial since gears of war 1. If I had a PS3 I would be proud.
Dat bat.
No, DICE and EA have conveyed several messages:
Including:
-Best looking game on console. Not even close (using operation guillotine as a point of reference, not beta).
-getting the consoles masses hyped over a pc version of the build that is night and day compared to the consoles(you know how many people I've had to tell that the faultline gameplay is blowing you away on pc?)
-Dead-set on destroying MW3, while in doing so lookin...
No, I just has people checking out what the hype is about. 12 million gamers isn't necessarily indicative of people ready with cash out.
BF3's beta is a mess. How do you think the public is supposed to feel when the beta for a game so close to release is that messed up? Look at Halo 3 and Halo Reach, Gears 3 and Uncharted 3, those betas released several months before the games came or are coming out. But all were polished enough even in beta.
The BF3 beta build is also a month behind development, which also pales in comparison to the aforementioned games which were months from completion so that isn't ...
How did MK flop?
Man, Arkham City is gonna be awesome. Much like ME2 and UC2 before it, I think AC will also have terminator 2 syndrome. I can see the GOTY nominations for it.
When will people learn that ign reviews aren't done by some monolithic fool? Some reviewers are less than reputable, but some reviewers, like charles, are honest, and concise.
Ubisoft, finish your vegetables.
I did, I've seen far worse reviews enter this site from more "credible" articles.
It got an 8, calm down.
Naw I don't think it's like that. Darksiders was very much a metrodish kind of game, where as Arkham City looks like it's a lot closer to crackdown.
I read ps3 for some reason.
