A bit drastic. I don't see what's wrong with the self-absorbed persona since it's an act to get a few laughs.
I for one think we should welcome that (provided it isn't blatantly trolling with a bunch of caps) because it enables me to give a deeper perspective on something I may not have touched on in the review.
As long as the disagreements are welcoming-which can be dicey on n4g, then the comment section of the review can be a very healthy discussion.
Thank you for your honest comment. I can concede that disappointment could've fueled the overall score by a few tenths. Finding MoH: Frontline to be one of the best WWII games of all time, it's sad to see how low the series has gone since it came to this generation.
General feelings for MoH's MP:
+ I do enjoy the mixture between CoD and BF2
+ I do enjoy all of the nooks and crannies thrown into the map design

So...you're asking the public to do the writing for you? Although I'm a fan of the AC series, I personally think news like this can show a lack of faith Ubi has in their writers when they essentially want the fans to vote on the next location.
I can't blame anyone for giving the a game a 3. Overall 3.0 scores for FPS' from me generally fall into being more of 'mechanics that don't work' (like that WWII History Channel game) rather than 'unpolished (or underpolished) mechanics' like MoH.
I hope everyone enjoyed the review :D. It's kind of sad to think this is probably the best Medal of Honor game this gen imo. I had such high hopes for Airbourne and this official reboot, but both are just subpar entries into the series.
"Tries to push the boundaries of hardware, with minimal fun and overall realism"
With all due respect, it just seems that you're shoving your opinion down everyone's throat when the case is still "different strokes for different folks". To be fair to GTA IV, it may have sapped many extra features from San Andreas, but you can't argue that no other sandbox game before IV had such a superfluous amount of online extras. Just because they went ...
It's easy to tell that this game simply isn't for every sandbox fan. That's all I find telling from the score.
I think it will eventually. It was just overshadowed by the marketing of every single other FPS since E3.
:D. That's one of my late elementary books that got me hyped for Episode 1 (I think it released around then). Good username choice
That's the thing I'm failing to see with CoD4. It had those same problems, only they were able to be forgiven thanks to it bringing something new to the FPS table. As someone who was addicted to 4's beta and MP, I found more than enough unfair perks, compromised lobbies, and glitches for it to be considered "game-breaking". The thing that people fail to realize is they should be aiming their complaints towards killstreaks as a whole and stop acting as if 4's in th...
I'm curious: Is your username inspired by an EU character in Star Wars? I recall that name because that was one of Qui-Gon Jinn's apprentices before Obi-Wan. /endnerdmoment
He also gave Dead Poets Society a 2/4 stars, yet he's still respectable when it comes to what he writes, albiet disagreeable. Out of all the obscure quotes, you go with his opinion on a Home Alone movie? When you look past the nostalgia, none of the them are impressive besides wondering how they convinced Pesci to play a role in 1+2.
^ You're putting words in my mouth. There's a fine line between avoiding cliches and delivering a story that's above and beyond the material that came before it.
I really hope a few critics see this quote. Considering his stance on videogames, Roger Ebert might have a good laugh.
To each his own, but I find it deserves all of its respect for being the first movie without the cliched bomb guy who gets injured (or something else) and talks the main protagonist through diffusing it near the end.
"If 1 thing GT5 has over Forza 4 its the cars..."
I fail to see how the 200 premium/800 standard cars in GT5 compare to 500 premium-like detailed cars in Forza 4, let alone beat it with "easeeee".
Like ElDorado said, this won't be added to the main pool of Elder Scrolls reviews. You could copy/pasta and put in pending again if you'd like.
1. Gaming laptop? I looked up the specs and they weren't demanding in the slightest. The Black Friday laptops ($400-$500) could handle them with relative ease.
2. Although I'm up for the beta next week, I get the impression that it's going to feel more like a SP RPG that's constantly changing, rather than a "WoW in space". That fact alone may rub certain MMO players the wrong way or feel refreshing to them.
"It's not really like they can start developing a AC game blindfolded"
Although that's true, that shouldn't excuse a story's setting hanging in the balance of a survey (not to say they'll do exactly what the survey says). But if the writing team is smart enough, they'll do something that will excite AC fans just like Naughty Dog going to the desert for UC3 without asking everyone where they should go next.
It's not...
