Forums - Gaming - Games and their so-called Advantage

The title may not make it clear so i will do that here. What i mean is that i get tired of games that you think you will have an advantage in, but once you play it there are no advantages at all.

Examples:

The new Wolverine game. He can not die, he always regenerates in the movies and comics, so why do you die in the game. It doesn't make sense. (It makes sense for the challenge but they shouldn't have made the game then.)

Assassians Creed, you can jump around from building to building and hide on the top. GREAT. Oh, but wait, later on the bad guys suddenly become as skilled as you are and chase you on these buildings. Make sense? I think not.

Uncharted 2, although not out yet, it is already annoying me. The bad guys are going to chase you as you climb. Why? To make it harder? No thanks. I thought my climbing ability set me apart from the others, but now they are just as special as me. I don't know about you but i couldn't chase Drake over ledges or along walls.

TimeShift you have the power to control time, but you have limit to that time control. I can understand it but i was expecting more, i wanted more fun and it only became more of a challenge.

______

I'm okay with games that come up with things to counter your powers. Like say in inFAMOUS they make a boss that nullifies your electric attacks(I wouldn't know how you would beat the guy though) then that's okay, may be annoying.

I just want a game that gives me the advantage and i have the advantage throughout the whole game. Don't stifle me. lol

I'm not trying to bash these games, i just wanted more. Maybe i'm a different gamer than most, I don't like a challenge, i like fun. I want to have a game that is 100 hours long but easy to get through because i have this incredible power that no one can stop. But give me some creative ways to use that power, give me hordes of bad guys to kill. Give me extreamly hard bosses but let my powers overwhelm them.

"Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)" [Cookies for those of you who know what that quote is from]

Anyways, i just wonder what you guys think? Or if you will put me in my place. lol

Wolverine's regeration is unnatural but it really isn't (or never used to be) nearly that fast. 



I can't stand hard games and hate it when they are frustrating, but come on man, you can't remove all the challenge.

What i think they should have done was after you get hit many times you are down and have to wait and regenerate. And maybe the bad guys drag your body back to earlier in the stage or something. So it doesn't mean you died, but people would just start over instead of being dragged.



sounds to me like you want dumb easy games, where the win button is slightly hidden and any stage were you feel the onset of frustration the win buttons appears...this sounds like you should play the wii, and completely avoid the hardcore games on it, and just go for the waggle max games, cuz it seems like your that type of gamer.....just an observation.

Oh, but see that is the thing. I don't have a Wii, and the only game i like are Zelda and... oh wait that's it. Anyways, I like games that have a great storyline. I don't find that with many Wii games. I like great graphics.

Even though i say these things don't get me wrong. I'm not a noob at playing games. I finished the first Uncharted, and didn't finished Assassians Creed because it was boring, i finished Timeshift. I play games on the hardest modes as well. I do like challenge but when a game comes along that feels like i should have an advantage it makes me mad when i don't have that advantage.

Then I recommend you stay away from Sonic unleashed, you have to be a gluten for punishment, I know cuz I'm playing it now...almost done with it too...it's the trophies that keep me going at night.

You're talking about Dynasty Warriors. Tons of enemies, easy to kill, and you are always stupidly more powerful than them.

And then the game introduces you to Lu Bu.
