I liked ryse. To me it wasnt meant to be really deep. It was story driven. Anyway more games cool.

I've been telling you guys for a month now that I've been playing my dormmates Xbox One. He has Ryse, Killer Instinct and Dear Rising 3 (which is the only one I haven't touched yet) You guys have selective memory. Playing the Xbox One has actually convinced me of buying that console first and the PS4 at the end of the year.

I look forward to seeing this... THEN I will believe it.

OT

Look ok... bad visuals though.

As I said, the game isn't a looker but its got it where it counts.

Ryse was all graphics

Says someone that never played it.

Ryse will get a sequel, the people that bought it will demand one and it has sold very well. It was a good game, a very good game.

Have you looked at the gameplay of this game?? Also, I have played Ryse. Thanks. :)

yeah course you have.

I don't understand how you can say this just looks "okay" while praising Ryse. The combat in both games looks pretty similar, but Shadow of Mordor clearly has more gameplay variety.

I know that visuals are subjective, but this also looks very nice to my eyes. I was detecting some noticeable framerate drops during the second half, though, which is always disappointing.

I thought Ryse would have worked much better as a middle earth LOTR ripoff than a more history game. It would have given a more variety in enemies and environments for example.

Ryse isnt based on history. It merely borrows from it. Unless gods and supernatural are real.

i'll take anything for some LOTR next gen action,hope its co-opping

My thoughts. This series need more games.

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

It's pre-alpha, so that's understandable. I'm surprised they even have it so playable already. Good to see they're confident in their game

After seeing the video, I have every bit of confidence in this game. Looks like its going to have a wide variety of options and paths while playing.
