Forums - Gaming Discussion - It begins the creator of GEARS OF WAR calls MGS4 " passive entertainment"

He's right. MGS4 has the action in all the wrong places. The gameplay of the last two playable scenes of the game is lackluster. The most spectacular scenes of the game are not even playable at all! I think that the game is horribly overrated.

That said, Cliffy's Gears was not exactly the pinnacle of modern gaming. I hated the characters, hated the story, disliked the weak boss fights, and felt that the gameplay didn't advance one bit from the first few scenes of the game.

Lol i really hate that cocky guy i remember him(if i am not mistaken) talking about wii like it was a virus or something. He's such an ass and if anything he should just shut up. I for one hated gears of war 1 and i think its my worst purchase ever, while metal gear solid4 is my best. So difference in opinion.

 

 Uh, I didn't think GoW nearly lived up to the hype (I would give it a 7) But he made some good points about the wii.

He just doesn't like MGS as a series probably, like me.

Man, Leo, what is UP with you taking quotes and blowing them way out of proportion lately? The MGS series has almost as much cutscene as it does game, and most of the actual gameplay is very slow-paced stealth.

AKA PASSIVE!

He's just saying that Gears is a balls-out shooter, while MGS is a stealth game. Sheesh.

 

This is almost as bad as calling Miyamoto a "cocky-@$$ dev"!



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I'd like to insult CliffyB, but every time I think of him, I remember his ridiculously amazing BMW M3 that gets worked on at the same place as my family's bimmers. Then I start drooling over its awesomeness and forget all about whatever negative feelings I had for him.



The idiotic quote is that "...passive entertainment is on the way out." That's a pretty dumb statement, since video games ARE passive entertainment.



@ Spartan & Robotech
Nice that you agree, thank-you!

Everyone else, spazzing about it is what he wants as this way no one forgets who he is or Epic. Although he is arrogant I'll agree on that for sure

allow me to desagree.... it's the only active entertainement.... or close to the only one.... you actually take part in the action going on... you can't do that watching TV, a movie, going to the opera, concerts, sports events, expo of paintings/phtographie... you just sit watch and clap.... video game you actually act in the environement designed for you....
