So according to you author of this review has to go with metacritic and can't use his own opinion .
I agree with this review. It's nostalgia for the sake of nostalgia with fresh paint slapped here and there.
Having played this halo 2 on pc from time to time I understand exactly what he means that multi player is deserted and when populated pros are in killing the fun of the game. Also multiplayer doesn't work in case of this release so you are stuck with single player which mosg people already know.
I find Halo bland now and overfamilair with Microsoft being in panic mode to sell their shifty system so their only great white hope here is Halo .
I used to be a fan but now it's as tired as Assassin Creed . For me this is waste of money .thanks God I kind of tried it on my mates x1. And it is how he says. You dump it on your shelf and hardly play it after checking few levels etc.
Seriously I don't know why I even bother with mainstream reviews anymore. Problem is for a quirky indie team this is make or break and seeing this game getting 5 out of 10 is a travesty !! Hence I have to say something.
The rubbish they award here with 8s and 9s etc is mind boggling yet this game which beats Thief 4 hands down and harkens back to games like Tenchu or earlier Thief titles . It should be celebrated not derided by some dweeb who calls himself a reviewer .
Anybody please if you liked Thief 1,2 3 , Tenchu , MGS etc please do yourself a favour an buy this game .it's at least 8 out of 10 and you will have tons of fun . Main character oozes personality and the whole game is quirky and fun .
So far this year my top 5 game that good.
Sort your reviews out Gamespot ,shocking lack of good sense of judgement.
His games were stunning to look at , cinematic with great story but ultimately shallow and reptitive gameplay . What happened betwen gameplay was far more interesting than gameplay itself .
I played them all. And it was no only my felling it was other people's too and press of those days as well. Ace magazine and many others .
So no he is not fu king game roylaty.
When it comes to space genre David Braben is game royalty and when it comes to sci fi operas people who did Mass Effect are .
I dont see why a very wealthy man who produced Lord of War and many other films needs gameRs to fynd a project he belives so much in.
I think he duped you all ...
I'm no troll .I feel I won't invest in something unless I'm sharing profits .
So even as we say someone here calculated that he will make 240 million from online sales etc .lets hypotheticsly assume it's true .
It's done on gamers backs which won't see a dime of it.
I'm Saying the same thing but these fanboys call me a troll .
Ultimately who controls this money .how is it alocated, spent , etc .its anyones guess .
.the man should have invested his money in it if he bwleives in it so Mich not just for a demo ...argument that he invested for a demo is nonsnse .
Its crazy to Think that he is some sort of royalty.
His games were always lovely to look at and cinematic with great and engagming storyline which was far better than Boring repetitve shallow gameplay they had .
When he finally had a chance to direct a film we know how that went .
Very sad that so many people are willing to throw money at ir .
You live in laland when it comes to piracy . 96 percent of all pc games are pirated . Your world is filled I see with my little pony and gummy bears . Sorry mate bit one of reasons pc is a dead platfrorm and no-one is making games for it bar steam digital content is piracy .
And yes you will play it sure but doesnt it bother you that you funded someshmuck who is taking you for the ride ?
His is the one who is making all the money .
I like the model when a proper company makes an investment in a game and it rides on quality of this product . If it's good than it's cool if not company learns from it .
What if this turns to be a total tosh ?
How dare anyone say what can you do for your genre as his slogan does to extort money from people like you.
Think about it .he is obuosuly a wealthy man with plethora of investors .
If he has so much belief in this project and genre why doeasnt he put his money where his mouth is and prove everyoneoe right ?
No...he prefers risk free option .riding on nostalgia and taking money from you .
You have been duped ...you dont any of you where this is going ? How it's allocated etc....you are naive at best all of you who support it plain stupid at worse .
