[Reasonable]

Judging by all the news of bugs no-one should have bought this game!

Not my thing but I'm worried it released so soon after first with so many bugs - I don't care what last gen rate of game turnaround was, you can't take engines like U3 and push out fully polished FPS/TPS games this quickly...

The losers are consumers while the publishers see yet again that with enough hype and demand unfinished product will still sell and they can patch at lesiure later.

What, another PES 2008?

 

From what I read 360 version isn't too bad but has some issues while PS3 has more.  I'm not too interested in the game anyway but will keep an eye on forums to see what patches come and what difference they make.

I've nothing against popular sequels, but I don't like the speed with which this game was rushed out to get to market.  There's been too many shooters shoved out with bugs / bland graphics or other flaws (Blacksite 51, Turok, etc) IMHO opinion and it particularly worries me we now have a sequel that seems to be actually less technically competent than the previous release - that shows some pretty poor development processes or some pretty rushed development (or indeed both).

Most sequels are expected to imrove on the original (and most do) - so I'm sure GOW2 on 360 will be better than GOW (at least technically if nothing else).  RFOM2 on PS3 will improve on RFOM (at least technically if nothing else).

But a sequel that goes backwards technically?  Bad precedence.
