| Wright said: L.A Noire. I really, really tried to like that game. I LOVED the atmosphere. But everything else was just plain easy, lifeless, not rewarding and plain boring. |
I second that. It was a rare Day One buy for me. I'd hooked myself to the hype train and was very excited. The reality, however, was that the game was extremely tedious. I tried to like it but it just drained the life out of me. The mechanics weren't fun and getting to the enjoyable bits took forever. It just felt like I was wasting my time when I could have been doing something more enjoyable, such as watching paint dry.
RAGE was a disappointment, not because it wasn't a good game, but because it didn't come close to living up to the hype. I actually liked playing it, honestly, but it was kind of generic in a lot of ways and the not-really-an-ending ending felt sort of lame. From the way it was hyped, though, I thought it was going to be epic and groundbreaking, like the second coming of Fallout 3.
