Post by: duckman2000 on May 20, 2009, 01:13:50 AM: I guess. But look, it's fucking Terminator. And these guys did a great job with GRAW. So why does it, apparently, suck?

GRAW PC kicked ass. It was like, you know, Ghost Recon.

Post by: duckman2000 on May 20, 2009, 01:26:22 AM: Yeah. Tactical map with way points, ability to issue commands on individual or squad level, and just generally closer to the GR roots. Not very well optimized, though, and I still have trouble running it at high detail.

And Watchmen. And the Watchmen game isn't too bad.

It would be neat if this were a continuing pattern; it's kind of fun to pay small funds to play something associated with the movie, if you're excited about it. And publishers have got to be priapistic over the ROI on a game with a license that doesn't require a AAA budget to fund it.
