August 12, 200916 yr Author I know, I loved Undying. And Yahtzee is a wanker. I prefer an opinion of an Obsidianian. Rain makes everything better.
August 12, 200916 yr He doesn't usually lie, though. I haven't played it, so I sadly don't know. Emphasis on usually. Giveaway list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DgyQFpOJvyNASt8A12ipyV_iwpLXg_yltGG5mffvSwo/edit?usp=sharing What is glass but tortured sand?Never forget! '12.01.13.
August 12, 200916 yr Buy it I loved the ending, but don't think of the game as something else than a grindfest. "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
August 12, 200916 yr Author There's another game I found on Steam, costs only the half: Brother in Arms: Earned in Blood. How about that? I actually really liked Hell's Highway, so do you think I'll like EiB too? Edit: There's another BiA game: Road to Hillbilly 30. Gets even a higher Metascore. Think I'm gonna buy that one.

I actually really liked Hell's Highway, so do you think I'll like EiB too? Play the demo? I'm pretty sure they all do the same supress-flank-kill thing. If you liked it in one of the games, it's pretty much the same in the other ones.
August 12, 200916 yr Author Can't. I'm not aware of any shop nearby that rents PC games. Rain makes everything better.
August 12, 200916 yr It's worth it as Yahtzee was utterly uncorrect about the game - it's good, not great but not bad either. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
August 12, 200916 yr It's worth it as Yahtzee was utterly uncorrect about the game - it's good, not great but not bad either. Yahtzee really said some bad things about it though. If he is even half right the game can't be that much fun. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
August 12, 200916 yr If he is even half right the game can't be that much fun. He was, frankly, totaly off - not a bit of the reveiw is that true (id est the "dog boss" he goes on about is not a boss at all). The only bad bits are the quick-time-events and you can get a third-party tool that disables those for you (it makes them automatic). "Geez.

The only bad bits are the quick-time-events and you can get a third-party tool that disables those for you (it makes them automatic). OK. One can never tell with Yahtzee how much he is exaggerting as part of his shctick and how much is accurate. From his reviews of the games I've played he is usually reasonably accurate as to how he relates game events. But not always. WHat about the part he talks about where the emplacement is killing his team and a message pops up telling him to run the one teammate behind the emplacement and drop grenades on it. Was that event/solution as arbitrary and out of the blue as he made it appear in the review? Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names.

Was that event/solution as arbitrary and out of the blue as he made it appear in the review? Nope. If you actualy listened to what was said it was very, very clear what you had to do - the "pop-up" only happened if you had hints enabled or had died many, many times (something that should not have happened).

August 12, 200916 yr It's playable. It's not scary--it's more like they tried to create horror and just got gross most of the time. The characters and plot are pretty bad. It's a playable shooter, though. Twenty dollars seems fair.
August 13, 200916 yr Same as above, except i wouldnt buy it. Imperium Thought for the Day: Even a man who has nothing can still offer his life
