Honestly though I'm playing Crysis 3 in 1080P and it doesn't look all that imo.

MW2 on PS3 looks the same. :yeshrug:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Play 5 minutes, and you're met with a 2 minute cut scene, play 10 minutes and you get a 5 min cut scene. I checked and there's 2 hours worth of cut scenes in this game, artificial way of increasing the length of the game. I'm really getting tired of the MGS approach to gaming with over produced long ass cutscenes. I got up took a piss, washed my hands, then went into the kitchen and got a drink & some chips and the cutscene was still going when I came back.

If these game companies want to make a movie, make a movie, stop passing shyt off as a game.

Just beat the game yesterday. I like Lara and loved how they changed her attitude mid-game. I enjoyed it but IMO for it to even be mentioned in the same sentence as Uncharted it has to improve on a number of things.

- Graphics and locations. All I saw this game was green, grey, and browns. It's exotic but it was a dull look overall. I'm sure we'll see multiple colors and different locales in the sequel.

- Get rid of the fukking sterotypes and dull ass characters. Its like they purposely did this to make Lara stand-out. shyt was lame.

- Add a pure Survivor mode like Fallout3. The entire game is based on one theme....being a survivor against all odds. Expand on that and give Lara a stamina gauge, make her have to hunt and drink water. Optional of course.

Everything else was great. The action and Lara being unbreakable like Drake. I REALLY liked the grim, darkside of this game too.

yep, I thought Far Cry 3 needed something similar as well. some kind of 'hardcore' mode with no waypoints, fast traveling, and other hand holding

like I said, you raise the bar pretty high by claiming the "best single player this gen"

the shyt with the rope arrows was overdone. all of a sudden there'e a piece of wood with rope around it everywhere. to the point it's in all sorts of places where there's really no logical explanation of why it's there

I understand these mechanics are part of many games, but this shyt was just too much. I'm standing right next to this rope thing with a box in it. why do I have to burn it to get the box? I understand why I have to do that when it's 20ft in air, and I have to figure out how to get fire up there. but when I'm standing right next to the damn thing, it's just jumping the shark

speaking of fire, did anyone notice the pool of gas... with three lit lanterns in it... one of them already upside down... then you take one of the lanterns out, and throw it back into the pool to cause an explosion :heh:

So its because of the "excessive rope arrows" that the game sucks in your opinion? OK...:beli:

yes, because in the land of internet hyperbole there's nothing in between "best single player this gen" and "game sucks"

Game could have been longer but they had to add multiplayer.

:whoa:

The kids nowadays love it.

Didn't you like Max Payne 3? It was pretty much the same way at some parts...play a section or two followed by a cutscene. Maybe not 5 minute cutscenes, but pretty lengthy. The part at the airport was probably the most fun I had in that game because I was not interrupted for a while.

Honestly thats why I don't like most games these days...its all the same formula

Nah, Max Payne didn't have this many interruptions, this shyt is literally them having a cut scene for damn near everything every 5 minutes or so. Max Payne you'd get like 10-20 minutes of gunplay then a cutscene, you rarely get a long unbroken run in TR. Max Payne had long cutscenes, this game has frequent and annoying cutscenes. Like, you'll be walking and then they go to a cut scene just to have her search for something in a container when they could have just done that with animations.

but Max Payne 3 was like a tony scott/michael mann film so i actually looked forward to the cutscenes when they were in this style - [ame=http://youtu.be/UVy5BnHUlIg]Linda Ronstadt - Blue Bayou ( Man On Fire 2004 ) - YouTube[/ame]

plus max payne was already a pitiful character he was like how john mclaine should have been after die hard 3, his dialouges, you actually wanted to see or hear what he have to say, that scene in the helicopter where hes escorting the broads to the club and him breaking down the rich was classic
