Regardless of how old the build is, there is no excuse for animations this horrid  i've honestly seen better looking animations on PS2 (Shadow of Rome) and the boring stiff combat isnt something that can be repaired

Animations are something I haven't seen anyone complain about, and not everyone believes the gameplay needs repairing. When I play Conan or God of War or Darksiders, the repetitive nature of the combat doesn't bother me. It won't here either. I love the brutality of it.

And this is just the co-op horde mode. I have read nothing but praise about the SP.


Uh what? You have seen the gifs people posted right? This is some PS2 level shit right there.

And GOW's combat is fast, fluid and satisfying. Every strike feels real. Not some stiff, stick vaveing, damage sponge, press A to awesome sorry excuse of a combat.

I believe it is "press X to awesome" according to this video. And I don't find any difference in this type of combat and the combat in any of those other franchises I listed and played and loved.

this from the same people who praise the mediocrity of cod every year and say titnfall is the best next gen game to come... yeah their opinion means so much...

Neither of those people have ever reviewed COD on IGN.  Both of them are big Xbox guys and if they say the MP is bad, then it probably is (at least for now).  I will reserve judgement until the final version though.

It's the multiplayer they are talking about, not the SP.

Oh well gotta waste my money on one crappy game a year if the SP ends up turning out real bad.



It's just that simple.

I know the game is 3 months out still but what's the point of showing a broken demo? Your supposed to impress people with it not turn them off from wanting to buy the game.

Well it's nice to hear opinions about Ryse from someone who isn't an extremely biased fanboy. Guess the game is as awful as everyone has been saying.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

it is never good for a game if it gets radically changed during development



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I like how they complain about the depth of combat describing exactly how God Of War(and its clones) is played. Their only real complaint seems to be sluggish controls, which certainly isnt good.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

What happened to ''dont worry abotu ryse''. Sony goodybag perhaps?


That was Ryan Mccaffrey. With IGN don't trust Colin hyping something Sony and don't trust Ryan hyping something MS.

It was obvious, it is hilarious to see xbox fans trying to make this game sound great.

Probably mor sad to see people try to bring it down without playing it or seeing final code.  Its the Net.  People who have an agenda are always looking to convince people something is bad because they choose something else.  Even if Ryse comes out with 90+ metacritic the same people would be saying MS paid for those reviews or something else.  

Personally I rather let final code decide my decision then a bunch of gif of the MP which isn't the focus of the game.
