Great to hear it's awesome.

Metro 2033, was a fantastic game. In fact it had more atmosphere than any Valve game EVER. It had perfect feeling with great animation and awesome story. They compalin about some linear gameplay and shooting mechanics. There is nothing wrong with some linear parts to games. ( Damn reviews complain about to many open world games ). And Fallout 3's shooting mechanics were far worse than Metro's. If Metro was just a FPS then I would understand complaints against the shooting mechanic. But it's very very clearly more than just a shooter.

It would seem people in review postions are completely off the ball.

So much so, I think Metro 2033 is better than both Gears of War games.

Whats the point?

Well Alan Wake has gotten more than 35 perfect scores across the web. But some big name review sites, deteriate the review score for the game. Complaining about things that are exactly the same as games like SH 1 or 2. Resi 1 or 2. Or any other linear non variety gameplay horror game. But because it obviously has more atmosphere than any other game, and is exclsuiev they have to try and keep both fanboys happy.

Grow up reviewers. Metro deserved more praise than Gears for it's execution. I every single normal gamer that Ive heard from who played Alan Wake so far has said it's better than any horror/Phsycological game. Personally I havent played it yet.

But Edge and other reviewers need to shut their god damn superiority thing up.

Rant over.

 

Selnor, I know you really like Alan Wake, but how is it that you praise it so much, if you havent even played?

How can you say that EDGE needs to shut their superiority thing up if you don't really know exactly what they are talking about? Its different form seeing all the trailers, reading all the previews and reviews, than playing the Actual game, don't you think?

I think that saying that reviewers need to grow up based on reviews of a game that you totally like but haven't played, its irresponsible.

I personally recommend that you play the game, feel it, and the make a proper opinion. Maybe you will be right, maybe the game its absolutely amazing, the best in the horror genre and stuff, but there is still a chance that in fact its not that good, right?

Please don't take it too personally.

We don't need to play the game to know its better than a 7/10.
