I hate slow ledge shimmying with burning passion. I completely understand how they had to speed that up to make the move more viable, and I'm glad they did.JB1981 said:

what does your comment have to do with my post?? I never said theat Heavenly Sword was bad. What does Heavenly sword have to do with Naughty Dog? I actually said I think Uncharted looks good. Heavenly sword is not Way of the Warrior. I was actually defending Naughty Dog.

That makes me think, I noticed are a surprising number of non hardcore gamers that are familiar with Naughty Dog. Example, my friend just got a PS3 and his little brother and friends were there. They were asking about "that cool looking game, Drake whatever, by the guys who made Crash".
This game might be bigger than everyone thinks...

I may be too busy to make Official Threads lately...but bloody hell where are the Headers?!
Just popped in to post in the AFW that is the GOTY thread!
I'm counting down the minutes until this is out. This is the main reason I decided on a PS3 all those e3s ago. Who gives a shit if all the trailers were CG. Games like uncharted look WAAAY better than their CG targets.
Much love Naughty Dog

Nothing wrong with HS. For a new development team's first title, it was a monumental achievement and the start of something very significant for Ninja Theory. Their next game will no doubt be astonishing.

Header:
"Still, I have to say the action, the gunplay just feels somehow flat. I dont know what it is, but something's just amiss. There's no sense of...physicality or real excitement in the gunplay. It looks an acts like Gears of War, but lacks the visceral feel."
That's also what my friend said. Combat is "soft". Also he claims the FPS is shaky, the cinematics are overblown and that the graphics feel too "plasticky". Make of that what you will.
None of this diminishes my hype for the game btw.

He mentioned later in his impressions that the combat had started getting better. So the action will get better as the enemies get harder.

As far as impressions go, Kotaku guy also said the game's the real deal, but not much more than that.
What does it mean that cinematics are overblown? Like the lighting in them has too much bloom, or there's too many cinematics?

Someone that was playing through it said the cutscenes frequent early on.

Actually I think it's something that comes from the different nature of the games. In GOW you feel like you're shooting with a SPAS12 even with the lowest pea-shooter, due to the effect it has on impact, the close quarter nature of combat and the intentional exageration in sound effects.
UDF has you fighting most of the time with a lowly gun that has quite a realistic effect, keeping a greater distance from enemies, constantly changing position to avoid being overwhelmed. You feel as if you're constantly about to be fucked, not like a tank that can (and should) go face to face with his enemy to feel the blood splat on his face. I would be surprised if it felt visceral in the same way GOW does. Mind you, it *is* visceral. It's just a different *quality* of "visceral".
Let me say that UDF has some of the best enemies I've seen in this gen. They move, they flank, they jump over walls and off ledges to stay on your ass. Kudos to the ND guys. My only complaints about them are the occasional moments of idiocy with grenades and the fact they sometimes start shooting BEFORE you even show up.

Sorry but your friend seems to be on a serious fishing trip
"It looks an acts like Gears of War, but lacks the visceral feel."
The shootout chapters I have seen there's a ton of gun spraying, great explosions (barrels all over the place to ensure this), cliff hanger platforming and freedom of movement. All enforced by comments constantly thrown out by Nathan, Elena, the pirates and all the other characters combining the action not forgetting the facial expressions and animations.
And sorry to say this but who by their full five can claim that hand to hand fighting isn't visceral?
Perhaps it's not as visceral as GeoW but it sure is top notch compared to other games (unless he also thinks the shooting is less visceral than in MGS, Halo and HalfLife).
"he claims the FPS is shaky"
Now this is one of the things one can't observe from game-play videos but there are other hands on previews disagreeing with him... But I prefer to compare these impressions with game-play videos from the reviewer.
"the cinematics are overblown"
Can't be talking about the 4 cut-scenes made public ^.^ On the other hand there is people out the who dislike the Indy movies though they are hardly the target group for this game and they must really hate cut-scenes in all games (can't call these 4 cut-scenes overblown and then hype something from TR, Halo, MGS, FF,..).
"the graphics feel too plasticky"
Now I would have understood him if he called the graphics cartoonish because that's what ND is aiming for with the saturated colours, slightly over the top facial animations, mushroom explosions, over the top death animations, extra blue sky, extra clear water... I mean as a reporter it can't have slipped him that ND said they wanted to keep the certain ND feel or that feel could be cartoonish considering they made Jak and Crash in the past.
Sounds like he's not the staffer who's most qualified to cover this certain game (just like I'd never trust a MGS review to someone who finds Halo's plot deep and compelling). I just hope he'll back up the claims of his with some sane reasoning contrair to the usual suspects who failed that part and stayed vague. ^.^
Had to let out some steam.
