Let's get this out of the way, the order reviews are disappointing and the game is on the short side. I still think Ready at Dawn has an amazing and tight team. I hope the rumors about Sony buying Ready at Dawn are true. I am a huge Ready at Dawn fan and think they would we well suited (as they are rather small) for a Jax and Dexter or Crash Bandicoot revival.
Just look at their track record:
Daxter: An amazing first attempt, this proves Ready at Dawn has the capabilities to do a 3D platformer justice
God of War: Chains of Olympus: An amazing portable game based on the God of War series.
Okami (Wii port): Fantastic port with well-done motion controls and back to their platforming roots
God of War: Ghost of Sparts: The game was good, it didn't amaze me as much as the first though
The Order 1886 is their first true next-gen console attempt. While the tech and art design are amazing, the rest of the game is lacking. I hope the game does well enough for Ready at Dawn to at least get another contract with Sony. Hopefully a new Daxter title! Is this wishful thinking, maybe...Am I a Ready at Dawn fanboy, absolutely! Did I enjoy The Order, no.
What would you like to see from Ready at Dawn?
Note: If Amazon didn't send my copy early, I might have cancelled my pre-order.
