Maybe you should be a 360 fan... you can get achievements in making lists and criticism! |
Like I said, even with criticisms I'm really digging this game, it's just that it's my job (real world job) to see these things, deconstruct them, and ask either why is it fun or what could make it better? That way, I can either not make those mistakes or use them later (because half of level design is building on what others have already proven fun).
While playing a game I usually keep a mental list of things I really like and really don't like. For instance, if I wanted to make a quick list of things I like about the game.
- Even though it's getting repetitive in the encounter setup, shooting is a lot of fun and really well done for a console.
- The platforming is great, it uses the original Tomb Raider method of making the player look awesome.
- The animations are wonderful
- I love the Romancing the Stone type cheesy 80's story going on.
- The jeep level was great
- I love the hint system
- The big firefights are just hard enough to be fun without being frustrating from dieing often (which is hard to do).
So even though I may have a list of negatives, I also keep a list in my head of positives too. Just because I nitpick things about a game doesn't mean I don't like it.

why do you keep on posting this in every thread |
He's probably keep a list of threads he wants to return to later and read and possibly comment on and is posting in them so he doesn't lose them. It's one of those clever things so that you don't lose the thread but it's also incredibly annoying because it gives other people the same idea and you get useless posts like that.
