November 14, 201015 yr I played a few missions of this over at a friends house today. You know, while some of the effects are sorta "whoa-ish" it really is the most flashy orgy of violence you could ever lay your eyes on. Not only is the game seizure-inducing visually speaking, it's also constantly bombarding your eardrums with noise. When we turned the game off we were literally like "wow... it's so quiet now!" I don't really mind violence as such, and the game isn't particularly *gory* (compared to some at least), but I almost felt dirty after playing it because it's just such "OMG VIOLENCE EXPLOSIONS DEATH NOISE FLASH EPIC SADNESS HEROIC" experience. But it was kinda fun at least, and I hated most of the MW2 campaign. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
November 15, 201015 yr Agreed. There were parts where I almost turned off the gore, which is something I never do. It got ridiculous when I was handed a pistol that blew off a person's arm no matter where I aimed, leaving them writhing in pain for a good 10 seconds. ... that and the scripted knife kills. EDIT: As for the sadness Starwars mentioned, I honestly did not see any of it. However, there were a lot of very, very troubling moments, and not because of the violence. The 1942 mission and the last few missions were filled to the brim with it. The game doesn't try to make you cry as much as it tries to make you second guess what you're seeing and what's happening.

I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
November 15, 201015 yr Author You forgot the third explanation IVE SUCCESSFULLY CONTRADICTED THE LAWS OF PHYSICS! DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

November 17, 201015 yr BLOPS has a lot of cutscenes? Urgh. I don't like lots of cutscenes in more action-oriented games. Definitely pass then. Not only cutscenes. You don't actually have to play the game. We have finally knocked down the last barrier for the casual gamers. Relax and enjoy your (semi)-interactive movie. Cuba mission done on 2nd hardest difficulty, without shooting anyone (that ain't required by the interactive cutscenes). Let's play Alpha Protocol My misadventures on youtube.
