Fuck shitty FPSes. . .give me the scans for the game on the cover that matters: Lego Indiana Jones.

Also, COD4 is bare minimum an 8. It is an intense fucking game. Anyone that tries to float anything resembling "it's bad" is full of some sort of bullshit or jadedness or whatever; at least enough that I'd question the validity of their opinions in the future.

The single player on veteran is an 8 to you?

Best thing about COD4 is everything going on the screen, explosions, helicopters, airplanes, tanks...etc...

the nuked city scene was mind blowing awesome, i wish we can play it in that setting, motherfucking awesome graphics there.

I'm not sure what difficulty I am on. Whatever the middle is.

Games that don't use EASY NORMAL AND HARD and try to use LEGENDARY AND HERO AND VETERAN are faggy. You're a fuckin' videogame, a technical device; the name of difficulty levels does not affect immersion, so stop trying to make yourself look "different."

Unless the sequel is much better, who gives a fuck about the features? Features can't turn a mediocre game into a great one.

tell that to all the reviewers who raved about halo 3 :'(

resistance 2 should be good, anyway. and i'm all for talented developers leaving baby games behind

It's really odd how vocal PS3 fans have been about COD4 sucking. What's the reason for the hate? It wasn't even a bad port job.

I'm not talking about Y2kev though.

PS3 fans are distinguished mentally-challenged. They hype shit up that nobody buys, and then they waste energy slandering good multiplatform games. I have no fucking idea what their angle is, but they are most definitely some flavor of dumb.

I'd agree on the names; the trend is stupid. I generally think that a lot of games get better as you ramp up the difficulty-- COD4 is the opposite. Just curious where you were.

And Smooth, which "PS3 fans" have been negative about COD4? Crazy NotAltogetherAndrews?

a. i thought it was mainly the halo queers bashing cod4

b. they're perfectly right

the seemingly-infinite respawns pretty much ruin the campaign. it's peerless in its portrayal of battlefield chaos, but 'sprint to the next checkpoint to stop fuckers spawning' is not a great fps mechanic. i played on 'hardened,' and didn't find it unduly hard...but didn't find it unduly fun either

contrary to popular belief, there arent actually that many parts where the enemies keep spawning, generally if you keep blowing away dudes you'll get an all clear from your sqaud, and then you can proceed

^^ true that. i've had to wipe out entire squads on veteran just to advance. the spawning isn't as bad as COD2.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #80 on:** January 11, 2008, 07:03:22 PM »

I only noticed 2 or so annoying bits where you just had to keep pushing, but that was also indicative of the mission and what the actual game situation was i.e an entire battalion has advanced on you squad you can kill them all get out of there

kev: shush, the weapons are clearly different, some MGs are better tha others in terms of hanlding, power etc. , if Veteran is too hard for you go play your Team Ico dreck

Hush up, COD4 weaksauce noobs! If you are too puny and feeble and generally sub-human to play it on Veteran, bleating about it on here isn't gonna help!

Instead, tell me more about how awesome Resistance 2 is going to be and why i need a Blu-RayStation. I'm pretty sure that the '2' on the end and them doubling all the numbers for co-op, online and SP mean that it's going to be twice as good but I may have the integer wrong; hype is an area of modern mathematics that often confuses me.

I might actually buy this just to own Kittonwy online. Who's with me

I don't really get the hate for COD4's SP. It's not amazing but it's at least a 7 to 8. I'm playing on Veteran and so far I haven't had much trouble with spawning enemies, etc. The TV station only took me 2-3 reloads to beat it. Maybe it's because I'm playing with KB/M instead of a gamepad. I'm about halfway through and so far the only mission that really sucks is the one where you control the satellite weapon.

Yea, that would definitely help. COD4

I finished CoD2 on Veteran, it wasn't that hard. I'm not complaining about the difficulty, it's about the single player campaign being pretty weak, especially when you have the awesome multiplayer at your disposal. Why bother with single? Multi is where it's at. I'll try and finish single over the weekend just to see if it picks up after the first hour and a half.

I thought it was kind of generic and safe, but I gave it solid marks because it was a launch game that really didn't have any glaring flaws, and it looked pretty good, and it had pretty smooth multiplayer. A launch title with no major cut corners? That's some points. Hopefully it's shaped up a bit, too, though.

I really want to like it. It has a cool premise and junk. The play in the first one was just kinda really standard.

Yea, I barely ever replay games. I think the last few I did to any extent were Mario 64, OOT (and that was due to the Master Quest disc), and Mario Sunshine. This is not including something like F-Zero GX or Ikaruga, which are pretty much infinitely replayable.

TVC15 · « **Reply #101 on:** January 11, 2008, 09:36:07 PM »

My big complaint with Resistance is that the game feels kind of sterile. Whereas the world of CoD4 feels really alive, and able to be blown apart and manipulated, Resistance has that perfectly still museum feel, for the most part. The glass in the game is fuck awesome, though.

I enjoyed Resistance. It accomplished its task, providing a good launch title, but I've always kind of felt that it would be the sequel that proved whether the game was a viable series, or just a good launch title.

The multiplayer impressed me. They really got that working well, at launch, even.

Resistance's biggest graphical issue was the sterile lighting. It really did everything to reveal the game's kind of middling texture work. Resistance was a geometry beast though, and Resistance 2 looks like it amps it up to 11.
