Yeah, I bashed Dead Rising thinking it was a shit game, but I played it, and it turned out great. I just didn't like the time-specific events. Sad

Am disappointed in this game Sad I was hoping a lot. But, after i saw the preview on GT.. i got turned off

People will tell you otherwise regarding RE5 and personally I didn't like Lost Planet Very Happy
But Dead Rising was cool but yeah, basically what Waldo said.

There's no denying that RE5 is a good game. Sure, it might not be true to the RE series, but it's a great game nonetheless.

What is so good about Lost Planet? I think it was average game. Dead Rising is Capcom's best game this gen for me, but the sequel is developed by Blue Castle (The Bigs) lol. Don't expect something good. Laughing

The mandatory co-op ruined RE5 for me. And overall it's not even close to RE4's quality.

Capcom ps/ps2 era -> Capcom now.

Personally I liked RE5 much more than 4 and that's just because RE4 had Ashley Evil or Very Mad
and because I really love co-op games and finishing it with my brother awesome Smile

I like what I see on GT, reminds me of ME a little, I've played games which got a crappy score but which I loved (and vice versa) before, so I will try this one.

The concept is great, and i bet the gameplay can be good. But everything else looks a little rushed and just there to explore the whole x/y/z gameplay Sad Just seems as a tech demo for a great concept. I really wanted to play it before i found out there are aliens. Sad Granted i didn't do any reasearch at all, but saw vids and saw slick space ships that reminded me of old school future concepts and shit. And the suited bad guys with jet packs and shit packed a punch. And like 2 weeks ago I saw a vid and they said aliens and crash landings and shit. and i'm like...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Sad Good idea, good concept ruined by Indiana Jones 4.

I liked the demo, the jet pack once understood maneuvered very well and combat seemed similar to Mass Effect (while in real time) but my problem was with occasional screen tearing while in flight, anyone else get tearing?

Sounds silly I know but The only reason I knew about / really paid attention with this game , was that Bear McCreary does the score

Demo was extremely average, the combat was far inferior to mass effect in my opinion, to a large degree because of it's context.

But average doesn't mean it's bad, right? Wink
I thought it was fun but I had a few starting problems with the gun fighting and the flying as well Very Happy
I wa s playing the demo, without realising it's the same guys as Crimson Skies, and the whole time I thought "well, this looks and feels like Crimsom Skies! O.o
Feel a bit silly now...

I hope it's as average as Crimson Skies, i loved it. it was my first real experience of multiplayer gaming, and that's what made it so much fun, not the campaign..

Tried the demo, flying is ok actually it just takes a bit of getting used to. transition from flying to ground is good and turning off the jetpack and free falling down a cliff is pretty cool..

as said previous it just all goes a bit clunky on ground fighting, aiming takes a bit of getting used to and i had to turn recticle sensitivity down alot, it reminds me of halo for some reason but worse! Laughing

i will play this one though to see if it gets any better..

Time to bring some life back to this topic Wink

Numbers are increasing rapidly on mygamercard with 16 now 7 from UK 7 from USA 2 from France, also there are places in the UK listing it for release this week I've contacted a few and there still expecting delivery tomorrow. Also an online store has listed this being in stock today in America Smile though it still says its a pre-order but there expecting it today.

So either UK release is wrong and its next week and that the USA stock doesn't arrive but its looking good for a release tomorrow Smile

I got my review copy today for PS3. The game is very good. Animations abit stiff and jumping is kinda Quakish. It feels abit awkward since the character feels heavy but it's not annoying.
I'm just a couple of hours into the game and gotten a couple of weapon upgrades.
Sound and music are excellent. Voiceacting is very good and story so far is nice.
The flying is damn cool and enviroment is good. Its quite linear, at least so far, but it's still a great game. AI, so far, is quite nice and i've been seeing some real nice firefights.
This game is like Halo meets Lost/Mass Effect. Right now the game is on an 8/10 for me, but that might change. when i finish the game, either way.
