Also, in the first game the running, while very gorgeous, was just so easy to do that there was never any real sense of accomplishment for getting to those high vantage points. You just press up and everything happens completely automatically.
Basically if they kept the atmospheric game environment and changed everything else, that would probably a step in the right direction.
My girlfriend really liked the first and can’t wait for this one, but she’s also my girlfriend so her taste and sanity should automatically be questioned.
I’m not crazy about the first one, but I didn’t really get into it beyond running around and grabbing flags and playing in hay.
Unless I see some really spectacular reviews (or some must buy now from trusted friends) this is going to be a pass. Thief does it much better.
So did Hitman.
Pass on this one; never even bothered to finish the first one after how it got repetitive as hell just 4 hours in…and the “the gameworld is limited/restrained because its a memory you are reliving” was annoying as hell; also, beggar women.
I dont think I’ll get it used or cheaper next year either; there’s way too many released in the first months of 2010.
Yeah, with stuff like Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 coming out early next year, what’s the point of getting this?
So you can watch a guy whine while strapped to a table? Oh wait, Heavy Rain’s coming out too. Never mind.

Plus, i doubt Heavy Rain wont allow you to free or kill that strapped guy, instead of saying you cant do it because its not how it happened.
I wonder which Dan Brown book they’re going to get all their ideas about “secret societies” from this time.

There’s also Bayonneta (Lets hope it cleans the bad taste Devil May Cry 4 left in my mouth) and Dark Void ( a game where you kill aliens while using a jetpack and get help from Nikola Tesla!).

Maybe they will get time travel involved using the LHC or antimatter.
If the final boss is Leonardo DaVinci piloting a wooden, winged giant air fortress, I might change my mind about thsi game.
And Dante’s Inferno! You kids like killing babies, right? Right? Killing babies in hell? That’s what you’re into nowadays?

Well, now I know what Fred Phelps is getting the family next year!
Also, that “Bad nanny” achievement aint getting itself.
It’s sad to see you continue mocking that poor game, Brad. The greed boss is a 20-foot jew with a cock for a tongue that spurts razorcoins!
Just like in the poem!
GAMES ARE ART
If there’s one thing I’d say was missing from my gaming experience (apart from a realistic terrorist simulation), it’s the ability to murder children in hell while gaping vaginas writhe all around me.

Well, if you import games from japan, you get to fill one of those wishes…but i think you have to register as a sex offender as part of the ordering process.

God, I hope that’s true.

Well, to be fair … the babies do really deserve it. They had the gall to die before being baptized.
