Tork gets a new publisher

So I was out browsing today and came across this. Picked it up based on Plays gushing. I though maybe I would like something Halverson gushed over. Nope, its average and I dont want to play it anymore. Hell I'm sick of 3d platformers as a whole. SCREW EM and SCREW Halverson for being a douche. Its not bad by all means but its not the best fucking thing since sliced bread as Dave makes it seem. But whatever Il'll give it to my nephew instead and wish I bought something else.

Ubi has failed me.

Although, had I played PoP2 before my previous postings in this thread, I can guarantee I would have been talking differently.

I believe the control setup was tweaked, for the US market though.

Well Halverson gushed over it before it came out. His review of the game makes it sound pretty generic. He himself said he was underwhelmed by its cookie cutter game play.

then he speaks the truth. this is one of my favorite genres, and i actually can be lenient when a game has some good idea that overcomes its blandness(i actually enjoyed slider for instance, with its interesting panzer-ish background art) so a bad one is a slap to me, and this just aint good enough to pay attention to.
