I've played the demo and it is awesome!

I also have the demo and am looking forward to the game. Damn it, there are too many good games coming out.

OANST 11-14-2008 06:30 AM

I got it yesterday but I haven't played much of it, yet. So far, very fun.

Leto 11-14-2008 01:17 PM

apparently fun but riddled with problems.

definitely giving it a hire!

Hmm. No CD medium for this game. Windows XP, you fail me again.

The only complaint I have about this game is the length. This is not normally something that I complain about. For instance, I love Braid, and that is one hell of a short game. However, Braid felt like it was over when it ended. This felt like it was at the halfway point.

Abeguy 12-03-2008 04:51 PM

I love that game, it's simple, but hella fun, I hope theirs an even better sequel with more open routes :D

OH god he hates it so much

Played it on Saturday night, enjoyed myself but will probably just end up borrowing it from someone.

KING_The_Godfather 12-08-2008 04:32 AM

I'm looking to have this game. It looks really nice and good graphics. The legnth is something that EA always ruins. :fuzmad:

Fuzzle King 12-08-2008 11:54 AM

i enjoyed it alot,the gameplay and everything is great but it needs to be longer.
why are so many games these days so,so short?
games are getting more expensive but the length of them is getting shorter.Rip off i think.

Mac Sirloin 12-08-2008 11:56 AM

DLC makes it worth it.

Fuzzle King 12-08-2008 12:03 PM

yes,but you still have to pay for that on top most of the time.

Because companys don't care about quality, but quantity.
More quality = less $$$
More quantity= more $$$
That's the problem.

But that is the problem with 90% of all businesses, it's not a new thing by any stretch of the imagination

Mac Sirloin 12-11-2008 03:53 AM

Releasing things episodically is good business. They wouldn't just show a ever episode of lost in one week, right? No. They air it once a week to keep your attention tied down.

And usually, episodic games are cheaper than full length games.

Mirrors edge is just short.

I agree with you, releasing stuff from times to times is very good, it keeps the game getting better and bigger, but EA just exagerate. I.E., EA realease NFS:UC, and they release stuff for $$$ that is unlockable. WTF??? Even you can't get the best car, get a gamesave and that's it. EA it's just a bad "gold digger" from game business.

Fuzzle King 12-12-2008 11:35 AM

what iv found annoying is with the new CoD people are getting double XP at the moment just for having the more pricey collectors edition.
(btw i think the new CoD's online is crap.They have tried to copy to much from COD4.
Campaign is so far so good though.)

CoD4 was good, because it was different. Why always use WWII as background for a game, don't they have some..."imagination"? Enough is enough. :fuzblink:

EA is getting better, all of the Bad Company maps and the new gametype were free, and Rock Band songs are much more reasonably priced than Guitar Hero ones, Activision is replacing EA in being the evil company of videogames, they even said they aren't interested in franchises that cant be exploited every year, hence why Brutal Legend among others were dropped.

Well, Brutal Legend could be dropped by Activision, because of director rights, like Oddworld had in the past. Activision usually does some games that are a looooong shot. Mostly games of Activision aren's in the mainstream. But if it keeps like this, we have another problem. :fuzblink:

Since they merged, they basicly said they will no longer publish almost anything that can't be exploited every year.

Maybe the director or president of Activision changed, I don't track as much as back in the day of PS and PS2. Even so, they're becoming like EA, or worse. :fuzblink:
