It's not the most intuitive or responsive game regardless of whether you're playing it stealthily or as a shooter. It's still a great action game but a lot was done between MGS3 and 4 to make it play like a modern game. There are some long load times and the cutscenes can be extremely overbearing if you're not invested in Kojima's hokey story, but it still looks decent and its set-pieces are some of the best on the PS3.

You sir are a master of obfuscation. Straightforwardness is something that happens to other people. Also any game that shows people what bullets do to the genitalia deserves a cult following, otherwise what is the world coming to?

If you loved the gameplay and open world stuff of AC2 then Brotherhood is definitely worth the price of admission. There is literally monstrous levels of content and it's all nicely varied and interesting, the gameplay is the smoothest and most enjoyable it has ever been actually and Ubisoft have finally nailed the controls this time. If you only appreciate AC for the story then stay away as it's just filler with some nonsensical happenstances near the end. It's just the culmination of the AC gameplay formula, not a realisation of its creative potential

Only if they provided free stimulants to numb the part of my brain screaming at me to strangle George Lucas with a stuffed Rancor

a great trailer and sci-fi take does not a good FPS make. Prey 2 is just a fantastic piece of marketing material, just like Dead Island. I'll reserve judgement until I see solid, lengthy gameplay which is what a good, cynical gamer should base his/her/its assumptions on. I've watched too many previews and trailers for dreadful games to be taken in anymore

doubt it'll be any good, Crysis was terribly optimised and it's likely going to be a slapdash port. At least with Crysis 2 Crytek put the effort in to make it run reasonably well on consoles

really really don't care. after they stop making ps3 games I'm not buying another damn console. I'm not being pumped for cash anymore every five years for consoles that break, aren't fully featured or aren't supported enough by developers. I'm officially sick of new consoles

I like to open new games boxes and sniff them. PS games smell like clean, slightly citrusly empty warehouses, Xbox games have a nostalgic dustyness and PC games have a nice woody tone. I don't know why more people don't do this...

The best trailers are the Valve "Meet the..." trailers for Team Fortress 2 and you know it. The only thing that comes close is the Cave Johnson ads for Portal 2
