I'm not sure what those shortcomings are supposed to be, exactly. Most people seem disappointed that it's not free roaming, and hold that against the game. Thing is, DICE never said it would be and, in my mind, were pretty clear we were getting a linear game. People just get too in to the hype, I think. They never fabricated that Prince of Persia was going to be free roaming, and this looks fairly similar.
-
but it is a shooter, and those are the industry standards. My point is that it looks sub par as an fps, and people are making excuses for it based on hardware, not software merit. The design looks old and boring, so why get excited?
-
Well if you like I could compare it to Call of Duty, Half life or Gears of War? It's still going to look old and boring to those, too.
-
but the hype is clearly all based on that lack of competition. If a game of this standard came out on 360 (graphics aside, the ai and gameplay is more important) People would laugh . You can't say 'oohh CONTROLS! either because, well it's bullshit. It has nothing to do with game design. oh and for the record, Halo bought a ridiculous amount of new ideas in. Have you never played it? It changed everything about the genre.

Get Mr.Beast. It's way better, and may just blow your face off. The Hawk Is Howling is, so far, on a par with that one.

New Mogwai is out, guys. I know a few of you follow them, ear wise.

Have we, or are we about to, enter a new Cold War?

Far from being 'nothing'- fingers were poised over The Button. Without a shadow of a doubt, civilisation was nearly swept clean off the planet! I read somewhere that the only reason they backed down was because Kennedy deliberately ignored a wire from Moscow saying 'we won't back down' and called off the American alert. -
coffee? yeah!

Urrgh. Sometimes I detest being the same sex as such utter, utter cunts as guys like that. I mean, they just lower the tone for everybody.

well I'll take your word for it, I suppose. In fact, throw me an invite some time.

full frontal nudity.

DLC might be an issue, but Valve are bringing the TF2 DLC over to 360 soon. Shame it's months late and won't revive the game. I played it today and it was so boring. Nobody used mics, nobody played as a team. It was bullshit.
-
ah yes. Good joke
-
what was the question?

This game looks shit. I hate the phrase 'good for a wii game' because all it does is highlight that the Wii can't possibly handle a good modern FPS. It can't do physics, AI, graphics or animation to any quality to keep up with the current crop of the genre, and this game just comes out looking like an N64 shooter.

Blazing Saddles Comedy perfection, this. Classic Brooks send up of the Western, racism and just about anything that gets in his way. I was raised on this film and I've probably seen it about 30 times. Genius.
-
Watched Blazing Saddles with a friend just now and she'd not seen it before. Quite possibly the best comedy evar! Also very amusing to watch with a first timer. Then spent a good while being shown round this ridiculously vast web source for DJ set material that features an utterly vast library of tracks to stream and buy, by genre and artist. Well good

Thing is, They're not exactly sitting on their hands all day are they? They have 3 or more games in production, all of which are on two platforms already. They carry weight with steam, but they're still just one studio.

Distinct lack of general excitement for this game round these parts, guys. I'm disappointed in you, really. Here's some videos to enthuse you. mmm....Zombie carnage.

I'm with skunky here. If you let the other team fuck you with hogs, it means you let them take control of the map and power weapons.
-
quite ironic, really.

that was far more to do with social issues than sexual though
