The whole "Its a button basher" theme pisses me off, the combat system is deeper than that, just takes a while to understand everything.

 Well that clears up what I was doing wrong when I tried it at Wal-Mart. I'm not suppose to use the control stick. =P

I felt the same way about Super Mario Galaxy. I hogged the demo station in my local GameStop for over 30 minutes and wasn't impressed with it. Im still gonna give another go, but I didn't buy the whole "IT's the best game ever! You don't like games if you don't like SMG!!!!!!"

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Let me start by saying that I am a fan of good threads, I hate bad threads, but I do not think that this thread is crap. I believe it's a very good thread, just not my cup of tea. I did however get a chance to read the top post earier today and I just was not impressed. To me, it was just another read the same words, hear the same thing over and over again type of post. The other posters were great I will say but I forgot about them after about 2 minutes, and then the lack of content started to set in. Something else I noticed was that the scope of the thread could not even handle a properly paragraphed opinion in my browser right. The words kept getting jammed together and smart people kept shifting around everytime I refreshed. The whole experience just left me kind of meh. Like I said, bad threads are just not my cup of tea and this short time with your thread had no effect in changing that. Oh well, let the anger begin I guess. Just my thoughts purely, nothing else.


That's my nominee for post of the year.

WoW you don't quite fit in here !

You're too smart ! 

GO AWAY !

 So youve shown one video of someone playing the game in that way and that means it should be? Congratulations. That guy is using about 2% of the combat in the game.

possibly but doesnt excuse that you can get through the game bashing two buttons, heck you dont even have to watch the screen



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Yeah, that's me playing and showing that you can get through the demo at least pressing only those two buttons and not looking at the screen.

You never have to look at the screen. You never have to move the control sticks. You never have to defend. You never have to do combos. The game does everything for you. A game with deep combat mechanics doesn't let you do all that (or I guess not do all that) and be decent at the game.

Haha, great video. I played HS too, and that is exactly how it is. Mash button, watch cut scenes, repeat. Not a game I would even consider purchasing for my PS3.

That video is hilarious. I was hoping someone would say that was fake, but no one didn't so I assume it's real?
