Hey if it's fun enough I don't mind looking like the drummer from a Daft Punk cover band.
These things really show the importance of artistry over technical skill. We loved Alyx Vance because she wasn't the typical dull 'hot chick' you see in sci-if games and movies. She was a tomboy with muddy jeans, dye growing out of her hair and tons of character. Her charm as a character is at least half the reason Half life 2 is my favourite game of all time. I honestly don't think I'd be quite as into it as a game if she was some pixie faced supermodel in Matrix gear.
I haven't climbed a single building yet, at least not from bottom to top since the smoke dash is literally the first ability you get and just about every building has a vent on it.
You're pretending you've played a game so you can pretend you didn't like it to strangers on the Internet. A game, a bollocksing toy. You're lying about having played with a toy to people you've never met so it makes your toys look a little better in comparison. What are you doing?
Dammit man, spoilers!!!
Okay, just kidding but yup, this game pretty much is my youth.
I don't think Sessler is some kind of paid troll but I do completely disagree with him so far with this game. Admittedly I've probably played less than two hours so far but so far I couldn't be more impressed. I really feel like this is the first properly 'next gen' game I've played. I must have already smoke dashed into a couple of hundred vents and it's still fun every time. The entire thing really feels so pleasurable to control in a way the previous games never...
A videogame news site is not a competitive sport. Get a life.
I've only played about twenty to twenty five minutes so far but already I can tell it's something special. Of course we all know the graphics are nice and it feels very fun to play, smoke dashing feels really pleasant to do but my biggest fear, that it was yet another poorly written cornball game, has been laid to rest already. Of course I'm sure the basic plot is shaping up to be standard superhero fare but the moment to moment writing, voice acting and characterisation is fantas...
It looks like a great game for people who are into that style but I can honestly say I have no desire to play it whatsoever. It's just not to my tastes. I don't really enjoy competitive multiplayer or military shooters.
Slap a 'Kenny' in front of it and I'll be interested.
That was your opinion? In that case you should've said,
'*in your opinion* in my opinion'
or should we just agree that it's obvious when somebody is offering their opinion and that having to add 'in my opinion' every single time you make any comment that is not merely a machine like impartial reporting of facts and figures is just tedious nonsense?
Also it might be worth noting that when somebody disagrees with your opinion they are n...
To be fair just because your boyfriend finishes too quickly that doesn't mean it's necessarily a normal thing that happens to a lot of guys.
When you've not played it it's a fair question.
When we've not played it it's a decent way to start a review.
When neither of us have played it's,,,,, let's be honest, it's a bit of a silly question.
I completely agree. Obviously there are some wonderful stories in videogames but those really are the exception to the rule. For the most part it's still all cheesy gravel voiced badasses that would give Jason Statham douche chills, 'tough as nails' girls who are only distinguishable from air headed doormat girls by their slightly goth dress sense and cranky attitude and of course big dumb musclebound black guys who shout 'dats whut I'm talkin bout' every time they blo...
What do you even say to that? I've had some real tough times but I can't even imagine something like that. Condolences.
In the case of the racist/sexist game, the consequences would be the public's reaction. You can't have an attitude of 'you can say what you want but you have to deal with the consequences' when one of those consequences is banning you from saying what you want. Besides which completely unironic racist/sexist attempts at creativity usually make for brilliant ironic entertainment. Sometimes it's the fact that these idiots were serious when they put this stuff together that m...
It does seem a little pointless. The important aspects of the plot, all the parts that would matter more in a movie were all handled by The Road. The zombie action was just the stuff pumped in there to make for some exciting gameplay. It was an amazing game that really stood out but I can't help but feel that as a movie it would have been a little derivative. Some parts were taken verbatim from the Road. It seems like they could only make a slightly less artistically valid version of that...
I absolutely loved the story of this episode but I still had some of the problems I was having with the first episode. Mostly that I often didn't feel like I was being given the option to do anything like the things I would've done in that situation. My options never felt like the thing I would do. I also got the sense more than ever that my choices didn't matter at all. Thinking back I get the feeling none of my choices would have changed things for more than five minutes of that...
Dammit GTgamer, I'm sick of you showing me off to people. You do not own me.
Ubisoft are the game company that have pissed me off more than any other this year but Valve still takes the spot above them simply for the fact that they could easily be the best if they would just get back to making amazingly creative games.
