I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.

I guess it could be fun in co-op.

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

No, it's not been released. Its release date is Tuesday in NA. :)

Maybe he "bought" it. :)

hmm. I remember seeing May 28th somewhere... not to mention there are already ads with links to the game's torrent

 

EDIT: if by "he" you meant me, I'm not playing it. that's why I'm asking for opinions :) and I don't have an XBox 360

May 31 in NA, June 3 in Europe.

The 360 DSIII demo is out on Tuesday as well. The PS3 and PC plebeians have to wait until June 7th though.

so, I've seen a couple of reviews and talked with a couple of people. and it seems that reviewers once again hadn't even bothered to play the game past the tutorial level. the negative reviews point out "flaws" that are actually features, like for example the thing when you can't have more than one weapon on you, so if you need a torch (which counts a a weapon), you have to drop you uber sword. funny thing is, new slots open up once you reach certain requirements (like kill a 100 enemies or something).

 

anyway, I hear it's basically "gears of war with swords". definitely not an RPG (as I had expected). I'm actually thinking of getting it in a month or so, I like this type of games (hack n slash, a la LOTR Return of the King)

Considering how dark some levels are according to some reports, that is a horrible flaw.

Seems pointless to play a game like this in single-player.

well, that was a design decision it seems, to build up atmosphere or w/e, and you can use the torch to kill mobs (although only the warrior can pick it up), and new weapons are scattered everywhere. so you just pick up the torch, go through a tunnel, then swap it for a weapon. like I said, it doesn't seem like loot is important, there's no inventory, armor or enchanted items to pick up

I enjoyed Gears of War, and it had been definitely built with co-op in mind, same here I guess. you can breeze through it on the lowest difficulty to get the hang of things, or try to beat it alone as a challenge.

 

Resident Evil 5 is another good example. I beat it in co-op with my friend. but to tell you the truth he can be worse than an AI companion at times, still I don't think it would be as fun. so you might have a point there

it's so nice, that games in Russia cost 1/3 of what they do in Europe/NA >_<

Yeah, but the average Russian also only earns, like 1/10, of what Euros/NAs do.

  • Author

not really, more like 1/5 >_<

Is it just me or does this game is horrible? :)

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

I liked playing through Demonstone, which seems like a similar game. Might get it if reviews are favorable.

  • Author

not exactly like Demon Stone. you can't switch characters on the go, only at specified locations. and there's a cover system :teehee:

I like Demonstone too, this game it's not Demonstone. Sadly.

You're better off waiting for LOTR: War in the North if you liked Demon Stone.
