I'm a pretty skinny guy, but I know some people who would be hurt by ND including this as a mode
They need to be dealt as adults. That's just sick to the nth degree.
Just wondering why they would give a game with a 12 hour single player + co op modes + deep MP modes + photo mode + Machima mode an 8.5 for lasting appeal? They really gave no reason for a lower score. This is one of those games that is offering a LOT more lasting appeal than most games coming out this year. As for gameplay getting repetitive? Has anyone played Gears 1/2? Resistance 1/2? L4D1? Killzone 2? They should have scored it probably a 9.5 and know it.
Start comparing scenes where actual action takes place besides the bathroom scene, and you really start to see how much more Uncharted 2 has put into almost every respect of the games visuals.
Hmmm... Sounds like MS first party PR wants to be known as the definitive a-hole this generation.
To be honest, they must be feeling a crapload of heat after seeing and hearing what GT5 is going to shape up to be. Forza 3 is going to be great, but stop with this "PD hasn't done anything worth while in years" and now "Forza 3 is the ONLY sim to be released this generation".
Do you hear Uncharted 2 developers knocking Gears 2?
It should be code named Ping Pong Ball Glued Onto PVC. LOL
While I hate the source, the people hiding behind the less than credible source issue and not actually looking at the comparison is a shame. Look at the bigger versions and go from there. I don't care if the Sony head himself posted these. They are what they are. There is VERY little separating the two visually and technically it seems.
What surprises me more is basically the same damage system as Forza 2, which I thought could have used work. It's almost as though they assumed j...
So they have the momentum now, a motion controlled game in Eyepet coming out NOW that looks great, the GotY in Uncharted 2 easily, best visuals by far in Uncharted 2, the best marketing the last few months, the best numbers, the most game genres these holidays, the most top ranked exclusives this year (count them), a new design, a new price.... Sony needs tough love?
What about the 360 that is pinning so much on Natal, are losing momemtum, have failed in Japan despite having mon...
Nice!
I love how they point out some "technical" stuff, and yet the bottom line still is the Forza 3 cars look too colorful, jagged with poor lighting that makes anything 3D in that shot look arcade like. For SURE there is more detail in the environments in that shot, but the lighting makes it look SO far from real.
I love my PS3 and prefer it over my 360. But XBL will still be better and more standardized than PSN even if they add cross-game voice chat. PSN is good enough for what I do, but I do realize that my XBL is better.
Day one for me as well, but this chick to me anyways is way too over the top. ME1 though for me was a top 3 experience this gen. :) Can't freaking wait for this game to come out. :)
PD and Sony are SO smart for delaying this game to get this damage model right. Either that or they would have been really stupid to not delay it to get this right. LOL It should do SO much better in the reviews now, and no one can use the "yeah but..." statement on this game any more. I was even using that statement. Looks great, but.... ;) No longer is that an issue.
It's sad when value has become recycling. If any other game had come out with their next game and used their old maps and only 3 new ones, added a 4-6 hour campaign, it would have been taken out to the back shed and shot.
Not sure how anyone can justify 3 new maps when Dark Corners DLC from Gears 2 offers 7 new maps, and we have the length and quality in DLC being shown in GTA4:TBoGT.
And yes. Heavenly Sword was always a rental for me. A game this short is a rental a...
LOL. Site is dead right now. Couldn't handle a few hundred page views. Serves him right for pandering this crap.
Accuracy is the best by far out of the 3 motion controls, but I need to see more. I was the most impressed with the E3 demo showing the sword accuracy on the skeleton where he could easily put the sword under the chin, and basically have the accuracy to make subtle accurate movements and placement.
Don't get me wrong guys. Especially for someone who hasn't played Halo 3, this would be a great game. But you can't review a game the way Eurogamer did, basically saying it's short, the MP is great for those not having played Halo 3, the visuals aren't pushing the system, the AI is iffy, but it deserves a 9. For the vast majority of ODST buyers (probably a good 85% of them), the MP disc is a rehash. Slap this game out like PD did with GT5:P at $40, and I would have no problem with this score ...
They say the game is quite short, the AI isn't great, the visuals don't push the system, and the MP is mostly Halo 3. How on earth can that equal a 9?
I respect that Halo has hit a sweet spot for gaming in general. But when it's blatantly obvious that this should have been an expansion pack, please reviewers... Don't reward a developer for charging full price for short, rehashed experiences like this. This should have always been a $40 title. I hope some reviewers have the guts t...
Man, they actually compared it to Gears of War 2, and said it had it beat. Surprised they brought up comparisons.
This is VERY smart of Sony. Even though the 360 250gb bungle includes a game and extra controller at the $400 price point, Sony looks like the one selling for cheaper, and this will appeal to anyone. Not just CoD fans.
