  1. So I finally got around to checking out the Metal Gear Rising demo and after playing through it a couple times my thoughts are... Meh. First, some of my problems with the game. Parry window is way too lenient, the only skill involved is the small execution barrier the command input requires in order to trigger the parry. Calling this a parry is an over-exaggeration BTW. A parry is defending the exact moment before an attack hits you, it requires very specific timing. In this game you can throw out a parry as soon as you see an enemy attacking. And believe me, you WILL see them attack
  2. that game didnt click with me for some reason, the shooting is nice, the world looks aight, its a quality game, but for some reason it never clicked with me It's boring. Nothing stands out. Just a generic mess Funny how that's exactly how I'd describe Enslaved. A game you certainly endorsed . A game that many people here liked. Only people who enjoyed Rage are you and GD. Game is assActually there were quite a few people who liked Rage, myself included. Game had very satisfying gunplay.
  3. Tactics nigga Which tactic keeps the partner AI out of running through fire on the ground? Which tactic keeps the partner AI from standing in that fire attacking the boss instead of shifting to a different side of the boss where it's safe? Which tactic keeps the partner AI from running across the entire field of play to pick up a small health orb? Which tactic keeps the partner AI from dancing in and out of it's attack range, constantly missing with it's gap closing attack and slowly backing up to repeat the process? Which tactic tells them to block incoming damage? Ther
  4. Oh yea, he does review games. LOL, way to throw your credibility out the window.
  5. I got the game on my GameQ. Should I remove it? I wish I had. ;( I only played it a half hour so I don't know if it gets a lot better but that first half hour stinks. I just sealed it back up in its GF mailer. Well I was only going to check it out because I was curious to see how crazy the game could get with it's shenanigans. A dude attacking you with curse words is just silly so I wanted to see if there was any other crazy stuff like that. I was willing to look past the bland combat if it could be somewhat entertaining but it doesn't sound good if you quit a half hour into t
  6. Ehh, I didn't care for the game but some people here really enjoyed it.

  8. LMAO I think this battle was my favorite so far.
  9. Been a couple years since I last played Web of Shadows so my memory of the game is a little hazy. I remember enjoying the combat system, it wasn't super technical or deep but it did a good job of capturing the feeling of being Spiderman. You could take out mobs of guys without ever touching the ground as you webzip from enemy to enemy, yank enemies towards you and bust out endless air combos and other entertaining shit. The combat was just fun TBH, easily the best combat system to appear in a Spidey game IMO. Mission structure is typical open-world type stuff, nothing really new here but some
  10. I've played all of them except for the most recent one (the movie tie-in Spiderman game). Web of Shadows, Shattered Dimensions and the one that followed after that. Forgot what it was called but it dealt with Spiderman and Spiderman 2099. i kind of want to buy both of them. they gotta be dirt cheap and after wolverine, which i really liked despite its lack of polish i want to try another marvel game Buy which two? Web of Shadows is the best Spidey game from this gen. Shattered Dimensions is solid, if you can get it for cheap then it's worth it. Anything other than these two were pretty me

  12. Doesn't sound like hardware is the problem, it's the game. It sounds like it is terribly optimized.
  13. Holy shit, I can't believe I'm just now looking through this thread. This shit is awesome!
  14. Started a new character in Borderlands 2. I don't see how people can play this solo, it's really boring playing the game by yourself and just becomes more obvious I should be playing with other people. Although on the bright side I never noticed the writing in this game was actually pretty good. When I played with other people I never really paid attention to it.
  15. Do what I'm doing, Gamefly it to see how bad the netcode is. I'm hearing a lot of complaining about connection issues but then there are some people saying it's fine for them. I have a shit internet connection to begin with though so I may be shit out of luck. But hey, won't know until I try, right?
  16. I just enjoyed Jake's more because it stayed consistent with it's approach throughout the entire campaign. The vibe of the campaign has you feeling hunted and they do a good job of keeping that feeling going throughout the entire campaign unlike the others which tend to break away from what they were going for and head in another direction. Leon's starts off with feeling more like the atmospheric campaign but starts to lose that once you enter China and like I mentioned before, Chapter 5 really sours the overall experience with the boss gauntlet. They really should've found a way to pace
  17. Finished Ada's campaign. Ehh, I don't think it's all it's cracked up to be, I wouldn't consider it the best campaign out of the lot. The first three chapters are fun but then the campaign becomes a lot more action oriented in Chapter 4 which causes the campaign to lose it's particular flavor it was going for at the beginning. Chapter 5 was just really boring, the helicopter sequence dragging on for far too long has a lot to do with it. So in short, Ada's campaign starts off strong but finishes poorly. I'd place the campaigns as Jake>Leon>Ada>Chris. Once I was finished with the Campai
  18. 7 for depth of field. Max (I think it maxes at 15) for aiming depth of field. 10 for character positioning to the side while aiming.
  19. About finished with Jake's campaign, has some nice set variety and just flows really well compared to the other two campaigns. I actually find the story with Jake and Sherry to be more interesting than the stories in Leon's and Chris' campaigns as well. So far I'd have to say this is my current ranking for the campaigns: Jake>Leon>Chris Ada seems to be unanimously agreed to be the best of the campaigns so I purposely saved her's for last.
  20. that's too bad. shoulda joined me for some RE5 Mercs. Honestly I would've if I had a gold membership. :] you got it on PS3? Nope.

  22. Chris' campaign is so bad... lol. The terrible cover mechanics do not blend well with the gameplay they're trying to go for in this campaign. Which is a shame too because the enemies you fight are interesting. The enemies use your past experiences with the last two RE games against you. I've gotten use to going for arms/legs to slow down an enemy and of course the good ol' headshot to deep stun them but with these guys that could spell bad news as you'll end up making them transform into an even stronger foe.
