[QUOTE="texasgoldrush"]and how dumb is clunky combat and inventory?texasgoldrush

You mean the ME2 leveling system wasn't dumbed down from ME1?

At least it was more functional and balanced than in ME1, unlike the completely broken ME1 system that causes backward difficulty curve.

Yeah but forcing one into an all renegade mode (or all angelic) was a poor substitute from the first game.

[QUOTE="Krelian-co"]

dragon age origin story may have neem generic (i hate that word) but it excelled in everything else, unlike its sequel which failed almost at everything and still managed to get a better score than amalur

texasgoldrush

so it excelled it is broken combat which can easily be exploitable, it excelled in rehashing fantasy cliches and the same company formula over again, it excelled with its rehashes of characters from past Bioware games, and it excelled at getting suckers nostalgic about Baldur's Gate to play a game far inferior to it. Silly DAO fans ignore the game's flaws so blantantly...while bashing DAII for its shortcomings failing to realize the entire series isn't that good. And really I praise DAII for its character cast and its attempt at having an original plot(which MOSTLY works), but nothing else in that game, notice this? While calling it another RPG rush job?

Dragon Age's 2's plot is one of the more broken things about the game.

I just wish they'd actually write reviews that were less opinionated and more technical. But they can't do that because if they did they would of had to give Skyrim a lower score and they can't do that to the greatest game of all time.

Skyrim was VASTLY overrated by the review community. Nevermind how generic that game was (although many of th eside quests weren't). Nevermind the bugs and the unbalanced gameplay, as well as lack of enemy types.

Skyrim is a new high water mark for open world RPGs and the reviews reflect that.

[QUOTE="IAmNot_fun"]Oghren may have been generic and worse of a character than Varric (whom I really liked), put him with Zevran, he's a freaking genius. But I agree with you mostly, DAO's story was extremely boring. I fell asleep while I was getting to Broodmother. But the lore wasn't.texasgoldrush
Zervan was HK47 as an elf...and found his cameo appearance in DAII god awful.

I killed him in the first game and the little bastard still showed up in the sequel.

Of course he looked nothing like his first incarnation so he could have been lying.

Then Space invaders should get a 1/10, Pacman and Frogger a 2/10.

Pong get's a 0/10.

Installing

Actually these games are still fun... but realistically you would be pilloried if you tried to sell the original Space Invaders Rom for $10 When you can pick up a more modern version on Xbox Indie channel for a dollar.

I don't like Trials original gameplay and the builder is fascinating to me.

Wow Tom Mcshea is an embarrasment as a reviewer.

Its not a good game because it sticks true to the original and gives us the game we all loved in the arcade but now with online multiplayer?

WilliamRLBaker

If the original game was a dated repetitive mess why not point that out in the review.

Nosalgia aside it looks and plays like a $1 Xbox live Indie Game.
