Smackdown vs Raw 2008.

I’m a big wrestling fan and usually enjoy the Smackdown games even if they aren’t a revolution every year. This year however was horrible. They’ve built upon the same basic engine for years now and gotten away with it but now they’ve taken a few steps backwards and made it unplayable. The AI is appalling, spamming the same moves over and over and you can’t even change who you’re looking at anymore, leaving it up to the computer to decide. Truly awful.

I expected much better gameplay. Not a crappy FPS that makes you RP. And by RP i mean the mundane task of looking for shitty enemies and defeating them to upgrade your character. And the controls are pathetic on PC.

Really?

It seems to me like it uses the same control scheme of any first person shooter released in the past 20 years.

I mean, you change directions around with your mouse like any other FPS, and you use basically the same keys you use for any other FPS.


Lay off the crack.

You obviously haven' t played it. It has 800X mouse gaycceleration and your characters movement is crap.

I never played the demo for PGR4, I bought it right away. It is the best PGR yet IMO.

I' ve been thinking about getting PGR4. I' ve heard it' s excellent, and I' ve liked all the previous ones, although they have eliminated certain cool features that I' m not sure why they decided to. For example in the original Metropolis Street Racer, it would adjust time of day based on your Dreamcast' s internal clock.

PGR4 is cheap used now as well. I' ve been thinking of picking it up. It' s only $30 at all the Blockbusters in Calgary.

Yes, that was a great feature. Added really to the atmosphere.

Anyway, I think PGR4 is the second best PGR, only beaten by PGR2 and overall both games are very close. Really, it' s not as much an disappointment as PGR3 was. You can make nothing wrong if you pay 30$ to get PGR4.

And I am currently playing Silent Hill 4 and is just not very gripping compared to the trilogy before it. Now, that may change as I move forward on it, but for now, it is a disappointment.

I thought the same thing. It wasn' t even intended as a Silent Hill game from the start so maybe that' s the reason why. It was meant to be some spinoff but because the Silent Hill name sells Konami decided to turn it into a Silent Hill game anyway. To do that they had to cram the game they had into the regular story somehow. It' s kind of noticeable that certain parts are a bit " forced" .

I read that some people at Konami regret the fact (now afterwards) that they did release it as the fourth game in the series.

I agree and I can' t believe I forgot that game. They didn' t even try with Smackdown vs. RAW 2008. The game also has the MOST repetitive cutscenes I have ever seen in my life. And as mediocre as the Xbox 360 version was, the PSP version was just way more appalling, I couldn' t even complete some of the matches because it sucked so badly.

Maybe it is for you because you have your default mouse setup as crap.
Mouse acceleration is for hardcore nubs.
