Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 then.
Three hours here, but I really took my time. The length felt good to me, though I agree $15 is a little steep.Quote:

The mini-games/pseudo-combat scenes were absolutely astounding--fun, surprising, even innovative. The actual combat was pretty much as strong as before, though pitting infected against humans was overhyped imo. It seemed pretty easy too... Granted I've played me a lot of the Last of Us, but I didn't die even once on hard.
Regarding a certain revelation:

Yeah, very ironic at the spoiler.Quote:

I was thinking they were going to use actual friends of ours with the integration of facebook.
Hope you like escort missions.Quote:

The scale is already bigger. That fight with the Colossus was pretty neat.
Everything in GoW2 is better.Quote:

I am really baffled by how much Id missed the mark on this. Aside from the blatant copying of Fallout and Borderlands, the game doesn't really do much to peak any interest in the post-apocalyptic-FPS-barren-wasteland-desert-survival games. Like Doom and Quake, Rage just continues to throw enemies at you as you trek through the same areas over and over (and sometimes backwards). Yes other games make you return to the same areas (Borderlands) but Rage's linear single hallway design makes it tiresome. The racing feels so out of place and the in-game economy is very broken. Yes it's pretty when you're looking at stuff far away, but when you're close it's really gross. At least Fallout had a highres texture pack. Rage just looks like pixels.
Yeah, I found "Rage" to be a beauty without brains (or much else).
Completely agreed about the racing and in-game economy.
id really needs to get their act together if they're wanting to remain relevant in the gaming world.
In other news, just freed the Steeds of Time in "God of War 2". Pretty much agree with what Skitch just said - everything in 2 is better than 1. Particularly the hit detection during combat. In 1 I frequently felt like I was dying due to unfair circumstances (controls failing, hitting enemies but the game not registering it, etc.) Everything is tightened up here.
The one area that Rage does better than Borderlands and Fallout, and just about every other game, is in making the weapons feel powerful and the combat hard-hitting. You can feel every shot that makes contact. I loved shooting the weapons in Rage.

Good call on K&L2. One of the most visceral shooters ever made.Quote:

Jesus, Kratos is like, the biggest dick in the universe.
Does he ever redeem himself? Or even see the error of his ways?
Or does he spend 6 games being an enormous cock bag?
Well, I can speak for I,II, and III.Quote:

Permanent dink. If it makes any difference, you can beat the snot out of him in Mortal Kombat 9 on the PS3. :DQuote:

He has the emotional maturity of a 9 year old.
He's very angry...watch the world burn and all that...
Holy shit, you guys see the PSN sale on Rockstar games?
Max Payne 3 for $5, Red Dead Redemption+Undead Nightmare for $10. Then PS2 classics like Max Payne, Red Dead Revolver, Bully and Manhunt for $2.50 each.
I'm assuming a lot of you have heard of Twitch Plays Pokemon but just don't want to talk about it here.
That is hilarious.Quote:

Yeah, I ended up buying all this. That is a lot of games for $25.Quote:
