Agree. Bad Company 2 is king. Roll on Bad Company 3!
Don't understand why Zombie mode is so loved. I don't buy CoD games for zombie modes, I buy them for straight up multiplayer. If I wanted a good zombie shooter I'll play Left 4 Dead.
Yeah he's a terrible character isn't he. It's the way Desmond arrives at the hideout and instantly Shaun is all like, 'hurry up, we haven't got all day, oh so YOU'RE the hero are you?'
Prick...
The Just Cause 2 guy? How come? I'm not disagreeing with you, just curious as I haven't played much of either Just Cause game.
They're all bad characters, but if they were hardly going to turn it into a 'top ten most hated street fighter character' list were they? :P
Good shout on Silver and Emil!
Depends if it's in order or not. If it's supposed to be in order, I would have put that Star Ocean girl at the top spot. Horrible character.
The point of the game is speed runs. Yeah it's really short, but a great concept.
Yes and no, it's great for the duration, but if they made it too long it wouldn't be as exciting. It would run out of steam too quickly.
By the criteria of this article yeah, the key quests make it short for an RPG, but throw in the crystal hunts/titan trials and it's massive.
Depends which version you played I think, wasn't lost chapters much, much bigger? The original key quests were short, but then again it's been years since I played it...
I heard two hours. Still not played it, looks awful. As for Army of Two, that length sounds about right.
I think both games will be super in their own ways. I don;t want to commit to saying one will be better than the other.
But the article specifically says it's based on single payer campaign length.
Longest games 'in their genres' How many straight-up FPS titles do you see longer these days?
Yeah Total War is a beast. Looks like they chose Civ IV for the strategy genre though. Shogun 2 Total War will no doubt be massive when that launches too.
Mafia II looks great, roll on Friday!
Well said.
No, I respect your opinion, but you've missed the point. They aren't bashing Uncharted 2, the proof is in the score they gave it. They make a good point that while Uncharted 2 is long, the pacing is inconsistent.
For the record, I'm a massive Uncharted 2 fan, it was my GOTY last year, but I agree, fighting the beast men in Shambala wasn't that good, it felt out of sync.
The point the reviewer is trying to make is that Mafia II is short, but fo...
He really does sound like an ass. I can see his point from his perspective as a developer, but penalising those without the money to buy £40-£50 games is a tad much.
Digital distribution systems like Gai Kai and OnLive will render online pass redundant in about five years anyway.
Well, you're wrong.
