Forums - Sony Discussion - FIRST MAG Review -- 8/10 (From Destructoid)!!

BMaker11 on 25 January 2010

Beta impression: I didn't like it too much. But then again, I didn't like SOCOM either and that's praised.

^ ^ Except Wii games don't sport 256-players.

OT: It just got an unsettling review of 6.8/10 From NowGamer.

Take that with a pinch of salt, the same site gave Halo:ODST  a 6.3 and the game was not that bad, so I don't trust them.

The funny part about this is that the NowGamer review's (which I just read) biggest gripe is with the learning curve of the game... and in the beta, the tutorial mode of the game was always disabled.  So was the online team DM training mode, as I recall.

That might explain why NowGamer's reviews don't make it onto metacritic.  Beta != complete game.

Another 8/10 from the Sixthaxis.com

Synopsis:

Pros:

Audacious premise some will fall into and never re-surface from.

Not another typical FPS; takes chances and pulls most off with aplomb.

Promotes smart play and a collaborative effort, embracing the future of gaming as being online.

Deep immersion.

Huge scope for re-playability and customisation.


Cons:

Visually not the most impressive game out there.

Controls can be finicky at times.

Visibility of what’s going on at a higher level can be sometimes hidden to those on the ground.
Enjoyment can depend on others’ investment in the idea of collaboration.

Edit: they state their Review is based on the Beta

Something wrong with my post?

yes you copy & pasted it directly I think with maybe an advert code.

I copied and pasted it directly, yes, but so did you right? And what is an advert code?

I agree nowgamer is a joke, some of their other scores for amazing games are silly.

Well, actually i wanted to make my own "First MAG Review"-thread, when i saw yours and posted the other review in here without looking, but your explanation is good too!

 

 



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

The advert code is like when you copy over an advert in the article & then everything goes weezy & wonky doo lol!
