That would imply it did something new or exceptionally interesting.  It didn't.  This isn't Citizen Kane, a masterpiece snubbed by the Oscars for unconventional and unstylish techniques.  It's a game that did nothing other games hadn't done and was received lukewarmly.  Stop trying to dress it up like a misunderstood masterpiece.  If you like the game, play it and have fun.

Wow, sarcasm does go over some people's head.

I liked the way you ordered me not to do something. That was so cute.

Well, I have learned never to take sarcasm for granted when discussing The Order :P .  I have seriously heard people say things not far from what you did.  My appologies.

But on the second point, that's my advice to anyone who gets too caught up in reviews.  I love Mount and Blade, but the game is not any higher than a 6.5 to 7 for a ton of reasons.  And that's being generous.  I wasn't trying to order around, just trying to make a point:  scores should never preclude having fun with a game.  Sorry if it came off otherwise (and for not catching the joke :P )

No prob.

The Order is this generations Uncharted: Drakes Fourtune. It is a game that takes aspects of multiple diferent games, and polishes them to perfection. However, due to a lack of multiplayer or Co-op, it is looked at as second rate and a rip off.

I just hope Ready at Dawn gets a chance to make a sequal with Multiplayer and Co-op so they can get 9.5's and 10's while delivering the same exact game just like Naughty Dog did with U2. It is really sad that a solid 8 hour experince can not be enjoyed, and that people can not find the value in something based purely on the quality of its gameplay and story. I have played through it twice already, and it will be a game, that just like God of War or Uncharted, I will go back to every couple of years just to enjoy a does of high qauilty gaming and story telling.

I am a sony fan and hate to say it but the game suck big time.

The only thing polished to perfection is graphics.

Sadly, that polishing took so much manpower that they left everything else half-baked and mediocre. This game doesn't deserve a sequel on any merit, and will certainly never get it.

I thought it was very average. I think it has massive potential though and in the right hands it could be amazing. Sony Santa Monica should do the sequel, i think they could turn it into something special.

Lol that's what i thought. It took me 5 1/2 hours to finish, that's pretty poor.

lol
