You're a fanboy, attacking fanboyism on this website.
Wait, I forgot that fanboyism and hypocrisy go hand in hand.
They said it themselves that it would have made the gameplay feel broken, not to mention that a lot of people in the beta actually asked GG if they could remove the cover system. They just responded to what people wanted, based upon criticisms from the beta.
Queens of the Stone Age do that sound so much better.
I mean, Gears of War's main gameplay mechanic is borrowed from two last-generation games. Thankfully, it's all in how those ideas are pulled off, and it looks like GG have managed to do it with grate panache and skill.
I can already tell where this is going
The Helghast have to wear specially engineered environment hazard suits to survive for long periods of time on Helghan (the planet they are on).
(from wikipedia)
Storyline
The game is set in an era of space colonization where the Helghast Empire has recovered from its defeat in the First Helghan War and launched a blitzkrieg against the outer Interplanetary Strategic Alliance (ISA) colony planet Vekta. Vekta's orbital Strategic Defense (SD) platforms fai...
Lost Odyssey was full of framerate problems and subpar texturing.
Thank goodness the story and gameplay made up for it.
This thread is full of disagreeing 360 fanboys, and will get worse as the hours pass. This site is full of it.
How am I being a fanboy? I expressed my interest in this game, and got attacked for it. Why are you in here if you don't give a damn about this game?
BTW, this looks nowhere near as bad as those screenshots, and this came from a trailer 2 years ago!
It has promise. The game has a long way to go before being completed. The concept, however, is simply a great JRPG. If anyone has seen those in-game videos, they would know the game looks NOWHERE NEAR THIS BAD.
I can't believe PSU would even release screenshots that look this horrible.
Why not continue to give users the functionality or customization options?
I feel bad for you, I really do. Oh well, there's always eBay...
I think the problem is that those screenshots are extremely low-resolution. It's like watching videos for a PS3 or 360 game on youtube...
They worked so hard to make a good version for PS3 gamers. It's a shame the game wasn't that good to begin with....
2009 is too far away!
All I have to say to that is...
DAAAAAAAAAAAMN!!!
Seriously.
LBP HASN'T EVEN BEEN OUT FOR A FULL WEEK YET!
But just for everyone else:

Note that the relationship between cores and threads is a common source of confusion. The PPE core is dual threaded and manifests in software as two independent threads of execution while each active SPE manifests as a single thread. In the PlayStation 3 configuration as described by Sony, the Cell processor provides nine independen...
I think you are right. MetaScores shouldn't matter, because some people will rate the game just to drop its average. It's like that with many games, actually, and is why people need to make up their own, unbiased, objective opinion about a game.
Actually, the same could be said about any site that culminates reviews, because you don't know how many reviewers out there have an agenda against a particular game, or are just doing stuff to get hits on their website.
