i disliked Mass effect 2 intensely. i thought RDR was wayyy beter.

Mass effect seemed to try to hard to be a shooter, but had terrible shooting and cover mechanics, the animations and action wer extremely stiff looking, and really took me out of the experience.

Did you like Mass Effect 1?

Mass Effect 2 is is one of my favorite games, I thought the gameplay was pretty damn good. An RPG which played like a TPS, and with damn good pacing. It's one of my top 5 video games ever, and I feel the exact opposite about the game from you.

As for Red Dead, I'm not a fan of westerns. Played the game for a bit and felt the controls were a downgrade from Grand Theft Auto 4. Didn't care much for the story or atmosphere.

no not really, but more than 2.

in fact i cant really see how people consider it a good game, let alone a great game. it just seems pretty shitty to me.

i mean, i can at least see how Skyrim can be considered a good (great) game. it has good and fun core mechanics, packed to the brim with content. but it is still weighed down by its bugginess, and glitchyness, which can not be ignored, and should not have been ignored by the reviewers. and like i said, it was rather convienently overlooked by reviewers until a few days after release.

but it still look s like an indredibly fun game, and great game. i would say worthy of a high 80's score, like 87%. but a game that buggy should never get the mid to high 90's it got. unfortunately i can not say the same thing about Mass effect, which seems like at best an 80 to me.

See the thing is, you don't like the franchise, so how could you see why people like the game? I don't like Red Dead, so I know I can't see the qualities that people like about it.

I love Mass Effect 2. No other game tackles Space Sci Fi so well. The atmosphere and environment are very believeable. The narrative, plot, and pacing are done so well, I can't think of a single game which tells a story better. In my opinion the cut scenes feel more like and interactive movie then Heavy Rain and Uncharted 1 & 2. The gameplay is fun, not as polished as Gears of War 2 or 3, but this is the only squad based game which I like and use squad commands (which I think are implemented exceptionally well). The missions are all interesting as well, and honestly, just exploring, and reading about different planets and colonization attemps is facinating. To me, when playing this game, it feels funner and better then Uncharted 2 (which I relate this game to in terms of feel very much), but it's 4 times longer, less buggy, more responsive gameplay (never are controller inputs ignored like in UC2), and a much better story, but story telling is about the same.

About Skyrim, I played it yesterday on PS3, and honestly I did not find it that buggy at all. I did encounter some weird design flaws (I can attack and kill a guard in plain sight of other guards and no one will pay attention, but if I kill a random chicken, then 5 guards come attacking me). Played it for an hour, and I can see why people get addicted to it.

I just don't think you like Western RPG's. If not, I wouldn't take critisizms of games from this genre seriously from you. Fan of Fallout or Fable?

i dont know what Uncharted had anything to do with this, but the thing i bolded is laughable. Uncharted 2 literarly had no bugs, it ran flawless, just read the DF review of it, and i would really like to know what "controller inputs were ignored". that never happens, you press  a button, it does the action.

note: im not complaigning that you dont like Uncharted, i already know you dont like the game, . thats why you brought it up, but saying things like that is just silly. but i respect you opinion of liking games over other games.

 

and Yes i very much enjoyed Fallout 3. i havent played New Vegas, but it seems more of the same, so it looks fun as well. and no i dont like fable, it seems really stupid to me. i dont know how you could come o the conclusion that i dont like western RPG just because i dont like you favorite game. please just leave me to my opinion, people dont have to think the same as you, and thats alright.

and dont worry i dont take the critisizms of ps3 exclusive games seriously from you either.
