Lol as much as I say he is wrong about the skill, ranked is still fun and apart of the game hating it is as stupid as loving it to pieces so much more than social. It's all about preferance.
"TrueSKill? You just referenced TRUESKILL? ROFL MY WAFFLES. You still don't get it. You. Don't. Need. Ranked. To. Be. Good. The sooner you accept that, the better."
Truth, you can play social slayer or DLC slayer and still get the same experiance...
"Psychonauts is worthy of a sequel, but doesn't necessarily need one. I wouldn't mind seeing another Sid Meier's Pirates some day, but I think it'd be too soon for that now. I'm actually currently on a quest to get the highest ranking ever in that game on Xbox Live. ;) It's gonna take months, but I think I can do it. I was ranked 5th in the world shortly after the game came out, but considering I had only rented it... others knocked me out of the top 10."
Psychonauts ended with a cliffhanger, next-gen powers could make powers so much more fun, we lack any crazy platformers that we used to have tons of last gen, the gaming world needs a Psychonauts sequel and not just to complete that series, but to remind us of our gaming roots. We did not start out wodnering if our game will contain a space marine, back in the day we had the originality of Bomberman, Sonic, Zelda, Megaman, Kirby, and of course Mario. Last gen we had Jak, Ratchet, MGS, Psychonauts, Conker, Sly, etc. This gen, everything tries way too hard to be real and it's hated if it isn't. We need a batshit crazy experiance. Crackdown, Dead Rising and Banjo are steps in the right direction, but not even close to as original as Psychonauts and Conker were. Do not get me wrong, I do not mind realistic games at all, I love them, but I think we have more than abundance of them. If you do not believe craziness is the way to go.. compare the fun of Crackdown with your fun of GTAIV. Yeah that's what I thought.
Lol no comment, I enjoyed CGS, MLG isn't that much different. It's fun seeing certain gamer's straetegies and seeing how others play. No different than a youtube vid. Though they do need to stop showing the players doing sh*t outside of the game and focus on the game. And ohh, how fun is it to see people on games with clan tags saying MLG or GT's saying their MLG when really they just plain suck and are obsessed with people thinking they're awesome?
It's not bad at all, hell better than Too Human and AC. I can see it being more fun than something like Braid, which is more theraputic than fun. Nitpicking it for loading is idiotic, Bad Company has bad loading and it's fun, same with lost Odyessy. Hell even MGS4 has terrible loading yet no one mentioned it. You just expected it to be the eprfect invisionment of a star wars fantasy when really it is a game. Not your personal fanfic, not your own personal fantasy, not perfect physics, but a game and it has to be built like a game(such reasons why the lightsaber can't cut through every enemy like nothing). It's a game, it has to try to give challenge and a fun factor. Sit back and enjoy it, don't be over critical and you may find yourself to like it. Seriously, this is like a perfect mix of what the haters of LO said (the nitpickers) and the haters of NGII said (the people who were upset that one stab didn't end life). In truth, games like this are more fun than stuff that is so realistic and and trying way too hard about itself *cough*GTAIVandAC*cough* that they aren't much fun at all.
"Not that much of a fan of Halo 3, but it doesn't surprise me that alot of other people are. With all the hype around a new Halo, cold storage, double exp, and with Gears and CoD4 getting boring people were goibg to return to Halo 3. Gears 2 will surpass it the week it comes out. Then CoD:WaW will pass that sadly"
Gears is actually the game that seems to have built its community back up hugely recently. It's weird."
Because Gears 2 is almost constantly promoted over XBL, hyping people up constantly is the best way to sell a game.
