Disapointed by Gears of War - Oct 05, 2006 18:48
Was anyone else? I mean after the X06 demo, I have developed several gripes with the game, some minor and some more important:
_1 The way they animate the enemies' deaths is a little riddiculous. Not everyone does a cartwheel when they die, and neither do they jump over low walls for no particular reason.

_2 The mechanic of stop and pop, although intriguing, seems like it will ultimately become very tired, even within the short 10 hour duration of the game.

_3 Stop and pop really seems to be the onlyn thing you do throughout the entire game.

_4 Friendly AI really doesn' t seem to help you any.

_5 Hope the game does not have that blue tint throughout.

Im getting more and more intruiged by the game for each video I see! Download the 8 min IGN video! in it you see the AI helping out, downing just as many as you do!

Also the stop and pop gameplay will be refreshing too an opposition to the run and gun that everything else these days requires, the options of flanking the enemy and the coop play really makes the title shin!

Iv noticed the death animation being a little overdone, but i dont really mind!

They have hardly show anything except how the cover system works,to not spoil the game,same with halo2.

We have only seen basically 2 levels,one from x05 where they walk in a forest,and its to dark to see anything,but when the ight hit you suddenly see weird things moving in a old factory.

very creepy.

And since we havnt seen the giant spider or the giant brutes in action or whatever they have stocked for us,we cant judge the game at all.

Only judge the graphic and the control.

And the graphic is the best looking game coming this year and probably next.

I was.
But seems its because im a " sony fanboy" and " just want the game to be flawed" .

I will wait until the release to judge the game though.

Question: Will the game hit the PC?I mean its under the " Games for windows" brand right?Wrong?

They arent currently developing it, that much has been stated, Cliffy B would rather make GoW 2 than porting the same game over.

Yepp,they stated that if the game sells good,they prob gonna do a sequal immidetly to xbox360.

But if it sells like crap on 360 you prob gonna se a pc remake.

But it wont sell bad ffs :)

I just bought a new laptop and it f**king OWNS my desktop PC. I think i' ll need to buy a new graphics card and another gig of RAM early next year. But i' m waiting to see what develops as far as DX10 cards and multi-core processors go.

how can you be so sure quez it looks like this game is another overhyped GOOD but not FANTASTIC game.

Will the gameplay just be on foot or we will see Vehicles?

I' m not dissapointed by GoW, if only because I' ve seen exactly what I expected. Hectic stop-&-pop gameplay. Dark gritty levels, and chainsaw' s on the front of guns.

Is it a little shallow? Maybe, but it is different, which is appreciated.

Of course, some people are disappointed in Gears only because there haven' t
been any dragons that have popped out of the sky. No limit-break moves, or
double-casting techniques, and because there is always a place to hide as
well
... Gears is a disappointment.

I' m looking forward to playing it, i enjoyed kill.switch on ps2, which is basically the same gameplay mechanic.

Also it' s hard to fault the game for getting repetative, as most games do, in a regular fps you are running and gunning, in a hack and slash, in a beat em up, in a flight game, an rpg, a sports game... in most games your basically doing the same thing over and over again for a long period of time.

Gears is no different, but if you hate that, give up gaming as a hobby.

The game looks good visually, and it' ll be fun, how fun will obviously depend on your tastes. I' ll get to try this when my friend buys it for his 360 and hope it' s as good as it' s pegged out to be.

I see what your saying uumai but my problem with this game is that it really dosent offer anything new, yet its hyped so much.
