[QUOTE="Shake_McGee"]

Just finished playing the C2 demo (PS3 version) and I'm pretty blown away. I could not disagree more with the people who are saying it's just COD with powers. Granted the killstreaks are an obvious ripoff, but COD was never this fun. The suit powers make for some very interesting and memorable situations/fire fights. Black Ops is sooooooo getting traded in for this.

BTW, this is coming from a *big* former skeptic of C2, and also someone who really enjoyed Black Ops, so I'm not trolling.

So, Crysis 2 isnt a COD ripoff because its more fun?

Pretty much, yes. But maybe I should have been more specific. The powers really make Crysis 2 stand apart from COD. Being able to jump 20 feet, turn invisible, slide, and take more damage is a very big game changer. They don't feel similar at all, other than the previously mentioned killstreaks.

if by suit powers being fun u mean people cloaking/camping with shot guns...then yes...fun...maybe its not the same on teh ps3 version...but thats all i saw on the pc version when i played...the game just enables campers...which games should punish them...u know by makin them a sitting target (notice the love to quake live and unreal tournament)

I haven't experienced any camping, yet. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Meh, I don't really want to trade it in, but money is tight so I gotta cut corners. Besides, I only use Black Ops for zombies anymore.

Wouldn't be hard. Black Ops isn't even finished. Its a flop. biggest_loser

Well granted the C2 demo didn't feel anywhere near finished, either. I hope the matchmaking and loading in the final version is much more seamless.

Blog it next time please.

No, I will not "blog" it. This is perfectly fine as a topic of discussion.

I heard about this, and am rather dissapointed, only because I was having so much fun with the demo (when I could actually get into a freakin match). The demo did it's job though. Day 1 buy for me.

I would agree if you were only talking about the original. The sequel and spinoffs have been rather mediocre.

[QUOTE="Shake_McGee"]mark, did you just try to suggest that COD is on the level of Starcraft and Chess :/markinthedark

we were actually discussing quake and halo at this point.... and a game like quake when played at the professional level does require the same level of motor skills and mental strategy as starcraft.... chess is obviously more mental and less physical.

Well in that case I'm inclined to agree with you. But the possibilities in Chess are almost limitless, and go far beyond that of any video game... 'cept for video games about Chess XD
