I don't even include CO-OP or MP as part of the review for this game, simply because this is a SP game at heart.
I hope this game has very low sales and EA lose a whole lot of money (apparently they need to sell 5 million?). I hope it fails BIG TIME.
This will teach EA to screw up a franchise and make the game appeal to casual gamers.
Anyone out there who can, please PIRATE this game and ensure your friends do also.
Yes look at where the PS3 and Sony are at today. Record losses.
YAWN
I am honestly getting bored of Uncharteds generic gameplay and climbing system.
Thank god for the characters and awesome story.
If theres 1 area that needs improvement, it's the gameplay and very very simplistic and linear climbing system thats currently in place.
Comment from that article by someone
"I know this is probably a mortal sin to admit outloud, and bigtime sony fans may scoff, but my only turnoff with the PS controller is...analog stick tension. Strange right? I always felt that the tension and pressure of the gamecube/xbox/360 controllers was nice and that the ones on PS family of controllers were just way too loose. I felt that this made it very hard for me to make precise changes in movement on them"

The Trophy system is fine. It is a step up from the GamerScore achievements on 360. The trophy system has a easy and simply representation of games you have got all the trophies for, indicated by the platinum trophy.
If anything 360 needs this. Having a Gamerscore of 34,520 is meaningless, as it doesn't mean you got 34 platinums so to speak.
Of course you can improve, but saying it needs 'drastic improvements' is silly.
BF3 campaign was awful. All it was was awesome GFX. I didn't even finish it. Awful story, awful segments. Not fun at all.
Seems like its there for the hell of it. In that case don't include one please.
I laugh at all these fanboy comments. You guys really have no idea what ergonomics is do you? The DS3 is poor when it comes to ergonomics.
1) Poor handles / controller grip. THe handles are too thin and short, therefore you are unable to grasp it with your palms (fully), instead its more like wrapping half with your palms and half with your fingers around it, which causes poor wrist stability. In other words, bad for the wrist.
2) Analog stick layout - Again ...
This thing is going to fail.
What CORE games will I be able to play on the SteamBox that I won't already be able to play on my PS4/720?
Whats this a mini-PC which has the same games that can easily be played on PS4/720?
If yes then it is going to be just as useless as the PC platform.
I can already play these games on 720/PS4 where 99% of the core audience will flock to anyway.
Competition is always good...
This thing will fail big time.
This thing is said to play games that I can simply already play on my PS3 or 360.
Next big fail - its mobile. Sorry but this is a tough area to succeed in, unless you are Nintendo.
This has fail written all over it.
No it doesn't matter at all. It really doesn't mean anything. It is only used in fanboy wars thats it, but it truely is irrelevant, especially considering we are at the end of a generation. So in the end it matters very very little and fanboys know this, of course they will keep pretending it does.
What does matter?
GAMES - Lets me honest here, as far as game options, the PS3 blows the 360 out of the water. You have the EXCLUSIVES plus all those same multiplat...
SOny or Microsoft don't have to worry at all.
First of all Steam Box is download only if I am right? BIG minus.
I have always preferred physical copy (nice to see a row of all your great games stacked along each other) not too mention you can trade or sell them.
What games will the Steambox have that aren't on PS4 or 720? If it's just going to have the same games that can already be played on either PS4 or 720, like the PC platfor...
Easily one of the GOTY
I don't care what anybody says. Gameplay too simplistic blah blah blah point+click.
The STORY and CHARACTERS and how YOU CONNECT with them.
AMAZING !
The BIG problem with the ONZA is that it had a HUGE fault rate.
I probably won't bother myself, as the 360 controller is the most near perfect/ergonomic controller on the market.
I don't think I will risk for a little improvement if the controller is faulty.
The last game I played on my PC was The Witcher 2. The rest were already available on PS3 or 360.
The Witcher 2 is old now - Shows how lack luster the PC library really is.
My PC is gathering dust
LOL Sony
They are suppose to try and make up for their mistakes with the PS3. New generation fresh start.
This tech is only going to anger consumers and cause a big back lash, impacting on the sales of the machine.
Sony cannot afford another sub-par generation. You should be attracting consumers not making them angry.
I don't buy used games personally but I am pretty sure there are A LOT of people that do.
Because TWD shits all over Heavy Rain.
You must of hated Uncharted then as that was far to repetitive, yet got GOTY
Point is all games are repetitive.
One of the best games this generation.
Awesome story and characters.
I actually felt connected to the characters and because of that the decisions I made mattered and were tough.
And I really felt the impact emotionally when certain characters died.
Truely an amazing experience.
Theres actually going to be a Season 2?
I'd give this game a 9/10
Absolutely loved the environment and I really got immersed into the world.
Loved how you had to hunt animals to upgrade your gear. Hunting actually had a purpose.
THe gun fights were awesome and and now to one of the huge strengths of the game - Stealth.
IMO it's done really well and I loved using the bow/arrow while stealthing and it feels so rewarding.
I didn't include ...
