My opinion is pure sh*t. Just look at the AI that has been mentioned and also there is a serious lack of gameplay here. Run > take cover > kill a guy, run > cover > kill him with a chainsaw, run > take cover > get killed by bad guy. There is no strategy, no tactical element, there are no puzzles, no special gameplay elements. Cliffy thinks that by giving us the control over a "cool dude" and his chocolate and peanut butter assault riffle with a chainsaw on it and swarm us with bad aliens will make the game perfect. GL.
Fixed.

You're on a roll.
Shame said roll is buttered and toasted.
 
Framerate looks almost totally consistent and the game looks fun to me. I still hate the aesthetics, though. I mean, come on, "[MACHO MAN VOICE]Sweeeet[/MACHO MAN VOICE]".

.... weren't you one of the people having a go at the negative aspects of what i said about some PS3 games at TGS?!?

Nope. I don't think I ever said a word about anything you said about anything post TGS. I did call you out for hating on a platform.

well it's kind of obvious - you're too busy with GAF so that's why your game still lacks gameplay.


Well, we were trying to figure out something that the player could do after taking cover, and that's when ducking came up. But really, what makes this game shine is the ability to shoot your adversaries with guns.

great feature, it's really innovative and it will bring intensity to the gameplay. and while we're on it maybe you can add a chocolate and peanut butter assault riffle with a chainsaw on it.
 
Very nice, and doesn't seem nearly as choppy as previous videos. Best part of the game form what I've seen? The camera angle/shakiness when you're doing a run-crouch, I love it
 
I still don't understand the chocolate and peanut butter reference.

Can you use the chocolate and peanut butter with the chainsaw to make candy bars to revive fellow grunts?
 
judging by this thread, i think this entire forum needs to be renamed to "OA-Believe".

seriously mods...did you guys all decide to take a vacation at once? Clean this shit up.

He's just saying that the two went together naturally.

Agreed. It would've been more appropriate for UT, which is a cheesball romp. I'd like my single-player experiences to be free from such tomfoolery though.

Even though the character designs are poor, Epic hasn't really done that poor a job though when you take into account that military-themed action game characters are dull for the most part.

I can't wait for the day when game companies learn how to create casts like this one: http://www.moviegoods.com/Assets/product_images/1020/371183.1020.A.jpg
 
the trailer didnt seem very exciting, but the game looks ver nice...would like to see more breadth to the gameplay though, some huge set pieces...thing is even though they promise a riviting story I cant really see it in a game like this

peace
 
awesome video! moving through the environmnt looks really well done, i cant wait to get my hands on this
 
I can't believe how tight everything looks. I seriously cannot wait to get this game running. So close, and yet so far.
 
awesome gamespot demo, that's the first time he showed Marcus shooting w/o aiming. I was wondering if you could shoot w/o pulling the camera close. First time showing the pistol...looks ok i guess. Controls seem nice, awesome visuals, cover looks great. Revving the chainsaw :D

Awesome, the control looks silky smooth.

We now return back to your regularly scheduled judgement of a game's depth that has had all of 5 minutes demoed. Thank you.
"All you do is press A! If you had different buttons for the movement, like pressing B for cover, A for scramble, X to slide around corners, now that would be depth. But this Shenmue QTE shit? Get that outta here."
 
looks great, but honestly you guys should download the assassin's creed gameplay demo from blim's site. that got me really excited...i loved PoP, and looks like the team is taking it to the next level.

It looks okay but NBA2k7 is going to be awesome you should all buy that? Did you see the textures on the ball? OMG I hope the game has ballwashers.

Wow ... looks amazing. 0_o



Glad to see the frame-rate and animation improvements. The animation does look a little goofy sometimes (seems too fast/jumpy) ... but it's a HUGE improvement over previous showings.
