I'm still on the fence about this one. I don't like Jack Black so my question is How important is Mr Black's performance in the game? It's a huge part of it or just a little touch?

Main character, in the story all the time. I personally didn't think he overdid it tbh.

Is it to the same level Metal Gear Solid has reached? Due to the number of cut scenes, MGS is seen as a masterpiece of storytelling and a game.
daaaayyyuuum Gonna have to trie the demo, see what all the fuss is about.
| papflesje said: I've just finished the game myself.. the game is a bit all over the place imho. doesn't do hack&slash very well, doesn't do RTS very well either... |
Ok, I am disappointed then. I was hoping the RTS side would be worthwhile.
I was surprised at how good it ended up looking. Won't buy, but it's great that people have another awesome game to choose from!

Grim Fandango is his best story/humor wise, but these days I warn you the gameplay will feel outdated. It's a P&C game that doesn't use a mouse.

Kung Fu Panda and Tropic thunder were funny as hell

I'm buying it too... just saying it's not a 9 game, objectively, in any way. Look: There's a difference between your favorite game, and the best game ever made. There are standards of quality development that this game is clearly lacking. Again, I love Tim Schafer, and I will buy this game, but as a piece of software, it has major quality issues that are easily visible. |
Bearing in mind that I am someone for whom positive qualities can transcend the problems created by flaws, you will understand if I am less worried than you about the blemishes marring the face of something whose other features I find immaculate. There is no objective measure of total quality: I will bear this discussion in mind for future conversations, but I will judge, for myself, whether or not the game is a 9.
Subjectively, of course.
Hell, Psychonauts was a 9, no reason this can't be that good...

So, if the gameplay is flawed, you would still consider it a 9 or above, just because schafer's name is attached to it? Or am I reading this wrong?
