I like the game very much and I only play single player. I have yet to try MP, but I will eventually. Currently Lvl 13.

If you use metacritic and rotten tomatoes to make your decisions youre about as useful to the human race as fallopian tubes on a lesbian. Its a sign you lack critical thinking.

Critical thinking suggests that the opinion/impressions from hundreds of people who play games for a living shouldn't be rendered invalid cause some people want to defend their purchase :manny:

Conversely y'all been pointing at reviews and shytting on games for months. Now all of a sudden reviews don't matter :ufdup:

But any way I never claimed reviewers or those that read them are stupid.

Never tried to claim ryse wasnt flawed and shallow.

Simply said it was decent fun while it lasted and the graphics were great. Worth a cheap rental.

I can admit that.

But with destiny y'all's defense force power level is on 10,000.

It's pretty funny to watch Playstation fans going so hard to defend an "always online" game made by Bungie.

Wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes :wow:

AAA games are too safe to try anything new and different. it's like the best they can do is trying to mash together mechanics from previously successful games, or just straight up remaking those previously successful games

:russ:

Is that right :usure:

Titanfall is a different spin on it and its fantastic
On sony nikkaz lying to themselves that Uncharted dropping soon :mjlol:
Halo MCC is the most anticipated game this year, Halo 5 next year
Battlefield 4 is the most played probably game overall
I beg to differ, friend
no actually its true. its the reason why i personally have stayed out of the shooters for so long. because i knew from day one. "this will get repetitive really quick." and nothing has changed that thought for me. i picked up titan fall, and loved it for what it was(robots, mixed in with a shooter). cant beat that. I got destiny(i like it) for what its worth. But lets be clear, this will be the last FPS i will be purchasing for YEARS unless something ground breaking comes along. no i will not be running to go get halo like every other fanboy(just cause thats what everyone does).

sure there are a ton of people that love the genre of FPS games. But lets be clear and honest. most of you know better then me that the genre is growing stale. Because the truth is, instead of these games making new games within the same drama. they are making new backgrounds and nothing else. at the end of the day, if all you can have is more weapons and a few new weapons, but its the same ole aim and fire. whats the point? every game has a shotgun. every game has sniper rifles. every game has semi to full automatic rifle and every game has either a rocket launcher or grenade launcher as your 3rd special weapon.

because this genre has grown so much and now that all the big boys are making these FPS. it means they will continue to play it safe. give gamers what they are use to vs giving them a new experience within the genre. these major companies are to afraid of changing things around for fear of backlash"oh my ... i hate this game its not a FPS its a ......all the other FPS play like this..why not this one????" they are afraid of that backlash. which is why they will continue to play it safe.

GTA san andreas making you have relationships with other characters and forcing you to maintain or else, while also making you eat, workout, or else. That was game changing. some of us loved it, some hated it, some were in between. but thats the kind of game changing stuff i'm talking about. GTA 5 brought you 3 characters at once. game changing. a different approach for the same genre. This is the kind of stuff i'm talking about that rarely happens in FPS games due to fear.

Game has a lot of potential but the game doesnt have enough content and relies on tedious gimmicks to hold up the gameplay. If only the game had even more unique enemies and bosses.

He's wrong. This is some hipster bullshyt that he's on. Some games just flat out suck. Some games suck but are good at generating hype and having a whole bunch of people buy it on the strength of its marketing.
some games do flat out suck. but the truth is most big games dont flat out SUCK. thats a lie. they are not as good as they SHOULD be based on budget and the ability of the devs involved. see this is a problem with this era of whats hot and whats not vs whats trending. if you think its a good game then its a classic(just like music nowadays). which is utterly ridiculous use that rating scale. good = great, and average = sucks. most games dont suck, most games are average to slightly below average. most big time games are above average but not great games. very few games are GREAT.

The reason the entire planet rush's out to buy certain games is because nowadays people run to whats trending. if the entire planet is going to buy destiny. you dont want to be the idiot left out who didnt. Then when you got the game and you realize it isnt nearly as good as the HYPE you allowed to sucker you into buying the game. Thats where all the over the top hate reviews come from(from users). when in reality some should say"the game is aight, nothing special." while others can admit" this game is very good but not great."
