The only thing Red Faction had going for it was destruction. Gameplay was a yawn. And that metacritic score isn't impressive.
Not really. If I'm paying for their Live service, I expect better online play on major games like Gears of War 2. That game was so buggy online.
Doesn't matter if they lose money per 360 sold. They're still raping their customers with the annual Live service.
Every kill except 2 was done with sniping. Game looks like a snipefest.
Red Faction was a horrible game.
How do you 'sign up'? Where is the link or website please?
Gears 2 is BUGGY, period.
Gears of War 2 is probably the most overrated game on both systems. While Halo franchise, Killzone, and all the others can be considered overrated, each one delivered in areas that made them stand out. You can't say they aren't fun games.
But Gears 2 was a PAIN to play. I feel that the majority of reviewers never tried to finish the game before handing out 9+ scores.
That's exactly why I'm not buying MW2... no dedicated servers. The host team always wins in COD4 due to lag alone.
Gears of War 1 was epic. Gears of War 2 was buggy. Let's hope Gears of War 3 will have the same impact as the 1st of the series.
I use SquareTrade for all of my consoles. I suggest you guys buy it for the extended 2 year warranty near the end of your original manufacturer's warranty (whether it's Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo). If you google squaretrade + discount coupons near November/December, they usually have 40% discount codes that reduce the 2 year warranty price to around $25.
It's worth it. Just google squaretrade reviews and you'll know what I'm talking about. All of my friends who had RROD before ...
Dude that's hilarious!
No love for MAG!
It's a great year to own a PS3.
I always felt the AI in the Halo games were a bit brainless. Just massive waves of enemy AI.
The two things I will always give props to Bungie: 1. Amazing soundtrack in every game they produced in the Halo franchise. 2. The expansive battlefield during combat.
Ignored by 38, now 39. 'nuff said.
Not possible with repetitive gameplay on small maps like Modern Warfare 1.5. They really didn't change much except added DLC content (maps, weapons, perks, etc).
Microsoft being Microsoft, just like releasing GOTY editions for games that never won a single game of the year award!
Can someone tell me why Uncharted 2's multiplayer stands out from the rest of the games? This is not a diss. I've been trying for the life of me to get a beta/demo code but can't, so I have no way of knowing first hand why the game is so great. I'm curious about the multiplayer, not single player because I already know that'll be good.
So what makes Uncharted 2's multiplayer stand out? Please, a detailed analysis!
You get rid of campers by including dynamic (constantly changing) objectives to the gameplay and rewarding players that complete those objectives. That's exactly what MAG aims to do. Whether it'll be successful or not, we'll find out in a few months. ;-)
Let's hope they get the 3rd one right this time. First gears was absolutely epic. 2nd gears was buggy.
