RAGE

I don't like the gunplay, it just doesn't feel as good as in Valve games and CoD. But he game is so fucking good looking. I mean jesus fuck.

":2ghn4539]I'm surprised it even comes as a surprise to anyone what he just said, everyone's concentrating on consoles now, the only developer I can think of that still makes AAA for PC is Blizzard, and even so Blizzars is it's own league.

I don't have any current consoles, just PC and mobile stuff (Dungeon Raid on ios is one of the best puzzle games I've ever played, and definitely the best puzzle RPG. Owns the shit out of puzzle quest), and yet somehow I don't have any problems finding Good Games. I don't even like RTS's, either. "AAA" is almost exclusively a console, american-focused term, it's not something you'd ever hear someone use to describe, say, Stalker COP, and yet that's the best game I've played in the last three years or so. No polish or technical problems at all, either.

*I have a Wii but it's been like two years at least since there was a good Wii game

Meaningful how, sales? Engine licensing? Who gives a shit. RAGE is probably the best shooter single player so far this year, how is that not fucking relevance?Also lol they still made one of the best looking games since Doom 3.

Meaningful as in does anyone still give a shit about them (not taking in consideration what they've done in the past)?

And saying that RAGE is the best single player shooter (did you mean first person, or any kind of shooter?) of the year so far is a stretch... Crysis 2 and Deus Ex 3 come to mind. Hell according to Metacritic Critic Reviews (not user reviews), Rage is as good as Dead Island, which apparently (haven't played it tbh) is not that good. Have a look for your self.

And about Doom 3, many adjectives come to mind, but best looking isn't on of them, quite the opposite actually, to this day I regret buying it along with Q4, although I grew up playing quake and doom and am a big fan of both series.

Wut! You just lost all credibility I had in you with that line only, right here.

Quote from Furyo

That the reactions would be negative yeah, of course, but to use the user review score of a GAME to grade its DRM is childish at best.Besides, to even think that Ubisoft would give a fuck was laughable.

obviously you filter out the credibility of people like that. reviews are VERY hard to quantify, and for the most part i always look at the qualitative parts even if the numbers are smacked in my face.

In the end though, didn't Ubisoft abandon that DRM-approach?

Viva la resistance!

nope, and more companies are beginning to use it.

There were (exclusively) negative comments on metacritic before the game even came out.

I'm about 7h into the game now, booted it up just now and it is stuttering like crazy for no reason. I verified the integrity of the game cache and steam re download 1 file. I now have to do this every time I want to play the game or I will get 1fps, literally. It is even hanging on the loading screen as well. The hell?

This is one of the dumbest things about Metacritic IMO, they let average users submit ratings before the game's even released. What possible legit use could that serve??

Pretty sure they took it out for AC:BH. I used to get all up in shit about retarded DRM but when STEAM would have a sale, I would throw my ideals out the window and AC2 was one of the best games I've played in a very long time. I honestly don't pay much attention to reviews unless they're legitimately critiquing the game as apposed to technical problems or DRM.

Possibly yeah, not all of the game will have it, but I know for a fact they still using it. (not a fan of it tbh)

Alright got it working again after hacking apart my config.

Pretty good looking at a distance! Do steam and img tags work? I no idea.

Nice, I loved dead city!

I'm running on max settings (Nv460) Looks sexy, runs so smooth. Amazing game so far! Best Characterization yet.

lmfao !

Really enjoyed this game, just got the co-op missions to finish up. Bit of a shame they are just a cheap way to re-use existing environments though, but i can deal with it as having another person to play through it with makes it kinda fun. The graphics in this game are awesome too. Multiplayer was a bit of a let-down though i never bought this for anything other than the single player which was great.
