what did timeshift do?



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.

It did generic pretty well?

MAG, otoh, is NOT generic.  MAG has successfully brought the BF2 tactical FPS breed of shooter to consoles.  Just like Halo brought serious FPS online to consoles, and GoldenEye brought serious SP shooters to consoles.  Frankly, its better than BF2, to boot -- the teamwork works better.

Anyone who knocks it, would probably also say "What's BF2?" or maybe "BF2 was lame", as well.  That's a place no serious shooter fan would ever go, IMO.

7.5 lasting appeal for an online only game cant be good.

You said it, ... imo MAG isn't all that interesting anyway, it looks and plays like one of those generic year 2000 games.

Now if the right person reviews WKC: IE on IGN (Not one of those jrpg haters) watch how it gets somewhere around an' 8.5 to a 9 for lasting appealing, maybe a little higher.

Generic 2000 games? you mean like every FPS ever released since then?

no lol, i mean the actual year, i forget but there was alot of generic shooters on PC at the time.

And there has been tons of generic FPSs released since then. Halo, Resistance, Haze, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, MW2, etc. None of these have added ANYTHING to the genre. Shattered Horizon adds more innovate to the genre then all of these games combined.

Because CoD didnt add RPG elements to FPS, they didnt make FPS fast paced and fun, it didnt be the first blockbuster where you can shoot through walls with multiple weapons.

 

Halo didnt make FPS as popular (on consoles) as they are today, nah.

Halo and MW2 are generic? If a game isn't adding something to the genre it's generic? Then Killzone 2 and 80% of the games are generic nowadays.

It's on 76 (metacritic) after the first day of the reviews! that is not good for a Sony exclusive that Zipper kept boosting about, even today they said MAG is not possible on the 360 (see CVG) due to the "powerz of the c3ll", why do they say silly things like that when the game is getting poor reviews on the first day!?!? shocking!

And also, as you know, Metacritic scores normally go down as more reviews get added, it hardly ever goes higher, 76 at the moment, that could easily drop into the 60's within a few days, not saying it will but it could.

Whether or not its possible or not on the Xbox 360 doesn't matter. However due to the network, more hardcore FPS players, more people with headsets with a desire to use them and the ability to form 8 player parties I would have rather had it on my Xbox 360. I enjoy this game concept but I won't buy this one, i'll wait for a proper Live implementation of something similar. If I have to wait until next generation then so it shall be.



Do you know what its like to live on the far side of Uranus?
