DERVISH888 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm on the fence with this game. I was checking it out a while ago and figured it would be dumb as hell. To my surprise, Gamespot gave it an 8.5. IGN was in the middle of the road. I wanted to see if everyone was liking the game. Scale of 1 - 10? Thanks.

killergp123 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I haven't played much of it yet(like 2 or 3 chapters) but loving every second of it. The humor is nicely done, the control style feels that of the newer Resident Evils, creatures are a mix of Res Evil and Silent Hill(One even reminds me of the pyramid heads, but with a cone instead). The blood styling reminds me of No More Heroes and the Darkness factor is unique and fun/frantic when trying to find a goat head to shoot so you don't die from darkness. I don't know what else to say so if you have any questions ask away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what else to say so if you have any questions ask away. You are right. this game borrowed heavily from other games. Like with the darkness and how you have to remove it from enemies before they can be killed. Alan Wake anyone? Either way borrowing from other games works sometimes. Darksiders comes to mind. With that said, this game is awesome. It is unique in so many other ways you dont even notice the similarities. I have played through this game twice now and actually looking forward to my third playthrough. My favorite game of the year by far so far. I dont think thats going to last but so far it is.

DERVISH888 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 Nice. That was the response I was hoping for. The reviews I read on Gamespot and IGN said that the controls were a little wonky, which was odd because every gamer review said otherwise. What are your thoughts on the controls? Pretty solid? Oddly enough, there were (at least from what I read) never any comments on the controls with GOW. Great games, but MAN those controls were wack. Are the headshots gratifying like that of Gears of War? I recall playing GOW / GOW2 over and over because of the stupid joy I received from popping a head off. Thanks for your response man. I appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DERVISH888 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like I'm headed to Best Buy on my lunch break today. : ) Thanks fellas. I appreciate your help on this. Also... I believe this is the first game to have an achievement with the "F Bomb" in it. That alone is worthy of my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Stupido Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 9.8/10. Thats because of UE3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It forces me to play the game a minimum of three times, which I dig. With no co-op or multiplayer (that I know of), it was almost necessary to add some replayability to the game.

They wanted it to look like a grindhouse movie. Have you ever seen that Grindhouse movie that Rodriquez and Tarrinteno did? Its like that. And for the OP the controls are not clunky they are actually very tight. Occasionally though when you go to roll your character likes to turn around rather than roll. Not sure why but its not that bad. I would say the people who said the controls were messed up never played a RE game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asturgis Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) 9.8/10 ? I think everyone is entitled to their opinions (actually, I don't), so I will say this : this is the worst piece of garbage I have played on the 360 in a long time. Period. For a Jericho-like, it's actually far worse, and that's saying something. Some people say this is the best game they have played in 2011... What the actual fuck ? Have you played Dragon Age II, Crysis 2, Bulletstorm, Divinity II, Mortal Kombat (I think this list has a game type for everyone) ? So you like the "dick" and "cock" and "pussy" jokes every single fucking sentence ? You think the hero is a badass, with his false Dante style and his, wait for it, purple leather jacket with a shining golden skull on the back ? You like playing a character who says "fuck you, faggott" in spanish when he headshots a demon, has a gun called "The Boner", found his girlfriend in a dumpster, literally, can't even read which is insulting for the first latino "hero", has a british skull flying around him that transforms into weapons and bikes and a damn magic wand/torch ? Save points are piles of demon shit ? The demon that captures the girl makes jokes about raping her ? What the fuck is wrong with you ??? I guess you like running over hookers with your car in GTA and think Machete vs. Ghost Rider would be the best movie of all times... I have even read here that this game is what RE5 should have been... which is an insult to all possible insults. I think this game is a pale copy of Bayonetta in terms of tone, with some gameplay elements of RE5, and pieces of Dante's Inferno's story, and I would give it a 4/10 because the controls are OK, the monster and level design is nice and the music is just plain perfect. Oh, and it's full of glitches and bugs, but then again, it's true that every single game has been this year, so I guess that was to be expected, sadly. I'm finishing this once, because I finish what I start, and I'm counting the hours until I will finally put my copy of FEAR 3 in my system. If it makes you feel less insane, flame me all you want.

Pfffffff you mad. And probably owner of small johnson. But, jokes about johnsons doesn'make any game better (Duke Nukem) but they really fit this game. And you maybe have no sense of humor.

davidmerrell Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Everyone had their own opinion but when you start insulting people for disagreing with you then you get it in return.

theduke1 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I love the dick cock and pussy jokes and yh that hero is a badass i dig the leather jacket as well machete was a great film and I had a bit of fun killing hookers in gta so fuck you!

DERVISH888 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 Anyway.... This game definitely sounds like the best thing to come out in a while. I was looking at Alice and Duke Nukem prior to this game and well... Alice got "so so" ratings (I'd really like to get my hands on a demo of that) and Duke Nukem just flat out caught hell from everyone. I appreciate everyone's response. The responses I've read on this thread, from critics online, etc. etc. have been mostly positive. It seems like the people who are for this game, love it. And those who dislike it, mildly dislike it. So... All in all, it sounds like a winner to me. I look forward to checking it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theduke1 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Alice is good as well mate but its more of a platformer but it gets repetitive quick with the combat duke nukem i would avoid at all costs its downright awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahaha! I downloaded the demo to Duke and it was dreadful. I couldn't look left or right without that thing getting choppy. I'll check Alice out at some point down the road. I love the Platformers and don't really mind repetition. This game got the best response from everything I looked at recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke is actually good guys. The reviews it got are unfair. Go over to the Duke site on this forum and you will see. People who actually played it enjoyed. It has very crude humor just like this game. Im not sure what the demo was but the game itself is not bad at all. Dont miss out based on demo. I would strongly recommend renting it though.

I'm a little spooked to drop $60.00 on that joker after hearing the press about it. I imagine it's pretty hilarious. I watched the trailer and it looked pretty cool. The part where he says, "Hell... I'd still hit it" at that Queen Boss was hysterical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
