Agree with the first, disagree strongly with the second (it's obvious he hasn't played much LBP), and don't understand MM9....seeing as it's Mega Man.  What'd you expect? 

I can't really comment on the rest.

Sure LBP and MM9 don't belong on this list, and at least Mirror's Edge was original.

But the worst part of this is what they wrote for GTA4: "we were left with the same old "assassinate this dude/steal this car" missions we'd completed hundreds of times before. Bring on The Lost and the Damned."

So everyone fell for the GTA4 hype, but it turned out the game was full of boring and repetitive missions, so... bring on The Lost and the Damned?
Now they're hyping the DLC, how do they know it doesn't suffer from the exact same problems as the main game?

 

To be honest, many people felt that GTAIV was even worse than previous iterations (took out a lot of the fun like the attack helicopter, and replaced with a lot of boring crap like hanging out with "friends" and going out on dates).

VGChartz had it as our biggest disappointment of 2008, but certain people disagreed.



They all ready have a petition lolz

lol at your secound point.. my brother is playing resistance 2 right now and i just watched him shooting some hybrids and when he shot one, it stumbled, fell over, then got back up and he shot it again and it reacted to the bullets and it died... what is ur problem?

also, why compaire it to killzone 2 for anyways? way too knock a good game

 

 

 I compared them because they're complete opposites in those 3 points I made. R2 barely has any recoil, KZ2 has lots. R2's animations are bad, KZ2's are great. R2 is a laser show, KZ2 isn't. They're things that killed the game for me personally - I understand that some people like those things.

Some enemies might react to the bullets on a few occasions, but it's still pretty weak. It gets really bad when you fight Titans. It gets absolutely horrible in co-op they take a standard enemy from the campaign and pump it full of steroids so you stand there unloading multiple clips on it. The Stalkers were yet another case of this. I spent a while trying to figure out how to beat that part of the level....after playing the R1 demo, I assumed you had to shoot them in the back, then I finally realized that this time around you can just shoot them anywhere with anything. When they finally show signs of damage, they repeat the same animation with the same explosion and the same sound. It was a huge turnoff for me.

 I was dissapointed when I found out that was the largest battle in the campaign. It also doesn't help when your infinite-respawning allies constantly shout generic lines such as "We need heavy artillery!", "Supressing fire!"......I've lost track of how many times I've seen a situation like this.

In terms of gameplay, I think we can all agree that the game could be improved very much. Comparing it to KZ2 isn't really that harsh - R2 was released in late '08. Many parts of the game didn't satisfy today's standards. I've played very old games that outdo it in many areas. It really almost feels like a last-gen game with improved graphics.

 

As for Mirror's Edge, that game was interesting (only played the demo). Besides being a platformer, I think it could almost qualify as having it's own genre: First-person simulator. No other game makes you really feel like you're in control of an actual person like ME does.

How the hell could they stop playing Resistance 2? The only thing that got me away from co-op was the fact that I had gotten Far Cry 2 a few weeks earlier as a gift, and my friend kept telling me to play it. It's good, by the way.

This list just goes to show what's so dreadfully wrong in the industry today. The fanboys scream for this or that, someone makes it, the fan boys and websites hype it like the second coming. Game comes out to great reviews and a week later everyone is bored of it and the bad mouthing begins.

Now some games (AC, SU) are rightfully here but MM9? Didn't they ask for old school difficult? GTAIV? Didn't they give that like an 11 score out of 10? Mirror's Edge? Didn't they beg for something new and innovative? Wasn't LBP the greatest game ever with unlimited replay value and savior of the PS3? Plus all those games got great reviews!!

Fanboys have gotten way too spoiled, way too picky and way too hard to please. Especially at the cost of today's games where one failure can sink a company (Factor 5, Free Radical). No wonder Nintendo stopped listening to them to great success.

 

This.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
