I want it, but I am too swamped to buy anything new right now.
Word. I'm super interested, but I need to finish Mass Effect 2, FF 13, Assassin's Creed 2, and Red Faction first.
A few things:
- Extremely linear. Way closer to Half-Life than STALKER from what I've seen.
- Gorgeous. Runs great on my roommate's PC. Engine seems sweet.
- More friendly than STALKER, but there are definitely things to keep track of that set it apart from most modern hand-holding first person shooters.
- Pretty great spookin' audio, not unlike STALKER.
- The guns feel as shitty as you would expect them to IRL.
It's pretty interesting, so far, but I haven't had much time to play it.
Damn this is getting harder to resist, despite my pile of shame.
So somehow I ended up buying this and playing it all weekend. The story is a little disjointed, but it's passable so far. The thing this game has going for it in spades is atmosphere. If you ever read the book The Descent, then you have some idea of the claustrophobic thing they're going for here. It's also unrelentingly bleak. Everything is fucked up and dilapidated. You don't come across some wellspring of a town where there's a paradise. It's nothing but misery.
Y'all niggas are missing out on a nice quirky game here. It's not as polished as MW2, but it's at least different.
I'm having a great time with it. I've logged about 8-9 hours and there's still more game.
I was interested in it until I saw the gametrailers review. Seems like a grade C game, and there's too much grade A in the market right now.
And yet you have Legendary and Darksiders as two of your last five played games.
What does that have to do with anything?Quote:

Legendary, however, is the biggest pile of shit. Not even worth the $5 I got it for.
Oh, and I played some Kameo co-op with my 5 year old neice. Guilty as charged. :rolleyes:
Child abuse.
