I don't think I'll buy this game. Economy is too shitty for me and I need the money. Was gonna consider/do it if it got better reviews :> Call me schtupid if ye wantz!

The campaign being 4-5 hours saddens me and I get that you go through the same thing to unlock other stuff.. but neh, Ill wait for Shadowfall which is very close anyway.

choppy framerate? campaign 4-5 hours? uh, what? I had no issues with framerate ever, and I'd say the campaign is closer to 7-8 hours, so about what you'd expect from an FPS.

What campaign did you play without a choppy framerate? The framerate goes to hell in the campaign whenever you have more than 3 enemies on screen firing, which is 90% of the time. Granted the multiplayer runs silky smooth.

Decided to check meta for the hell of it.

As usual, another Vita game where the reviews (mainly the low scoring ones) spend so much time tearing it apart for not living up to the console versions.

Uh, this is a handheld. Just like how iOS games get scored higher due to being on iOS this should get treatment different from that of a console.

Either way, no big deal. Well, expect for the fact that reviewers continue to make this stupid mistake of claiming games have these short lengths, meanwhile your average person does not rush through a playthrough like a reviewer does.

They need to begin putting these things into proper perspective.
