whats Dead Space?

i really lost track of the story after i had to cut my way out of that worm thing in GEARS2



Someone complaining about writing in games shouldn't be abusing the word 'literally.'



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

Gears of war is basically an over the top action/ wanna-be drama where every male character is played by Vin Diesel or the Rock. That being said, it doesn't really matter cause the game play is where is at as well as the wonderful multiplayer.

Who cares if the writing is bad? Some devs say some dumb things sometimes.

I am having that discussion with my IRL friend all the time, about movies mostly. It's always hard to settle and agree on a particular case wether it's good or bad chease.

In this case I might pick Vanquish from the bargain bin and find out for myself.

You get out there and buy it right now! Right now!

HA HA. It's mad I guess, but I think it's finished now. I think we agree on the merits of good cheese, but disagree on Vanquish having/not having them. Maybe I should fire up Vanquish again and see if it works for me this time.

And you too ;)

Dead Space story producer Chuck Beaver gave an interview with Eurogamer earlier today, in which he criticized the writing of Gears of War as containing "atrocious, offensive violations of story basics." 

Among other things, he noted that the game had "literally the worst writing in games," but added that it "seems to have no ill effects."

Chuck Beaver has since gotten in touch with us to clarify his earlier comments, which we'll reproduce in full.

“I just wanted to jump in and clarify some of my comments that were taken out of context about Gears of War," says Beaver.

"First, let me say that I’m a huge fan. It is an epic franchise that has trail-blazed more than a few industry-leading player experiences and mechanics. It is deservedly recognized as a top-tier title. Its success as a property is evidenced by its giant sales and rabid fan base. The industry is far better for Epic’s contributions, and we all owe a great deal of inspiration to their work."

Indeed, while Epic Games' contributions to the game industry are undeniable, I personally believe that the industry could afford to criticize itself and look upon itself introspectively—if only to improve the games it has to offer.
