This just in we don't have to take Llyranor's crap anymore.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

It's only 'not awful' if you overlook how simplified they made it to support gamepad controls. Rather than making a strategy game that'd work wonders with a gamepad, they took a PC RTS, took out a bunch of details, and simplified it for consoles. Removing clickfest micro'ing for the genre isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just not done well in this game. Oh sure, it's supposed to be more action-focused, more about the units! Instead, it just plays like a very simple rock-paper-scissors game. Ensemble overlooked extremely simple interface issues. Sure, you can tab between unit types in your group selection. Use a special attack, and whoops - all your marines wasted their grenades on one enemy. The game thus forces you to micromanage individual units - much like a PC RTS, just in a slightly different way. Only, you get to do it awkwardly with a gamepad. This game is really only for Halo Xbots.

Finished FEAR 2...

 

 

Bull****. I paid 60 bucks for this?

I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

I played Dead Space. To be honest, FEAR 2 had some much more terrifying moments, but Dead Space was just more fun and varied. I never really got scared in DS.

 

I hate how horror in games nowadays is mostly "Here is a lot of gore and sudden and short attacks". FEAR 1 was scary because it was completely weird paranormal stuff going on in insanely ordinary places. FEAR 2 has all these colourful and surreal environments.

Thing I hated most about Dead Space was that they told you where to hit the bosses. They eliminated half the fun/horror by telling you where to shoot to kill your enemies. When I saw the last boss, I was like "OH SH-, nevermind I'll shoot these yellow things till he dies"

Hey Nick, Nick. Guess what?

Tons of gameplay footage.

 

- Has an intro by Jun Takeuchi (RE5 producer). Said he will have to take off his Resident Evil jacket for this video, that this is his "other big project".

- "Kenji Oguro" is director

- Powered by "MT-FrameWork 2.0".

- "massive change in climate which has melted the snow and created brand-new environments such as jungles."

- "story won't be confusing on one main character like in LP1"

- "have been some big changes in how the game plays"

- "players wished they had been able to take on the Akrid enemies in a co-op mode. You should be able to see our response to those requests in the trailer you just saw"

 

Also:

- Portable cover/shields like Gears 2

- Mechs with passenger seats and turrets

- Looks like a co-op squad-based game

- Story is told from the perspective of various Snow Pirate factions

I like the idea of co-op though. Though that means I won't actually buy it.

My XBox 360 died this morning. After 2 years of glorious use, and the fact I just bought a HDTV for it, I get the Red Ring of Death. Damnable bastards.

Good news is that it is being repaired/replaced for free.

To bad they don't know how to get good games on it and good support for those games. Hows the Fallout 3 DLC? HA!

 

Also, after 2 years of abuse I expect things to break.
