I think your sig pretty much explains everything. You prefere games with minimal story and pure gameplay right? Nothing wrong with that but before judging you I'd like to know if you own a PS3 and if you ever played Bioshock Infinite. "Watching" them doesn't count. All games are boring if you only "watch" them.

I don't really prefer pure gameplay over cinematic games. But I think cinematic games should take advantage of the elements they're trying to express. Like in Infinite and this game, the co-player is a female you've to protect. But you only protect her in cutscenes, in-game she doesn't seem to exist at all. Make it add something to the gameplay: Protect your co-player as much as possible (ICO?). It can really add something to the overall game. It gives you a reason to care about her. Also the glitches are disturbing in beautiful games like this. Just take the time to take out the glitches. Mass Effect is another good example of a cinematic game doing it right.

I'd like you to answer the bolded question as this will speak to whether or not you opinion matters.

So I guess everyone only likes 'emotional' games right now? I don't hear anything about the glitches, Ellie being an invisible bulletsponge and frustrating gunplay this game has. I think it's another Bioshock Infinite case right here, good storytelling but the gameplay was pretty boring.

So you've played it?


I'm sure he did, I see him in every TLoU dedicated thread claiming something about the game.

He's also very passionate, he must be a big fan of the game!



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Yes I have a PS3 but I completed Infinite on PC. I'm mostly a Nintendo-fan but also play some PS exclusives.

The only bad thing about that is that ps3 hardly ever gets the same amount of reviews that the 360 gets. So it's really hard to judge it when both consoles have a big gap of how many reviews it has.

What? It is the average... 50 or 100 reviewers will not change the score over 1 point.

No no not all of them no.  I'm just talking about ones I have seen where 360 will have 90ish reviews and ps3 has maybe 35 and there is a 2-3 point difference.  It has no effect at all to me.   

The PS3 exlusives get lots of reviews. Multiplatform games are generally reviewed on 360 so 360 has higher number of reviews though it doesn't matter since PS3 version of the review would be exactly the same. It is a non-issue really. Uncharted 2 has 105 reviews, Littlebigplanet has 85 reviews. The Last of Us will around 100.
