Funny Stuff...

Wow :P

Fail to the king, baby

well for a game that's been in development for so long there's no excuse for it to be bad, if you don't like harsh reviews don't put out junk, that simple, so next time go cry to your momma if you can't take the heat

There is a difference in writing a review saying "The game just doesn't come together and ends up being a sloppy first person shooter, and there are much better offerings out there"

And:

"A festering irrelevance with nothing to offer the world" - taken from the Destructoid review

Eh. Don't take any of Jim Sterling's reviews seriously. He trash talks on everything. Regardless, no amount of sugar coating in the world could mask the way people really feel about this game. Even Kevin Van Ord went a little overboard in his criticism. There's clearly a reason for that and it's not the fact that reviewers are being venomous. MrSelf-Destruct

I am defending the makers of this game by saying that there are better ways to give criticism on something without being unprofessional and sounding like a teenager wrote the review.

It isn't just the game industry that does this, it is every entertainment industry. No one knows how to write professionally anymore. Everyone writes in a style similar to a blog and they throw in all kinds of stuff just to get hits on the internet.

there is no difference as long as it's the truth, people need to stop being so sensitive and butt hurt about something true

one thing i really don't get is how some people will go out and buy whatever and if it turns out to be crap they'll say " omg why in the heck did i buy this crap, it's completely useless," so it's cool for some to say that but if a reviewer says that it's unprofessional and childish, like i said before if you can't take the heat don't give out junk, do yourself a favor with that criticism - go look in the mirror and ask yourself what can i do next time to make it better so i don't get harsh reviews

Also, the game actually has its moments. I regret paying the full price of admission, but I have at least enjoyed about $15 worth, so far. :P MrSelf-Destruct

i respect your opinion on your purchase, i'm not trying to act like a troll ( now that i got that part out of the way ), how did you feel after realizing you only enjoyed 15 out of 60, did you say anything like what a piece of junk

the point is simple, if something is junk i will say it and not try to act all professional about it and say " well after so many years in development this doesn't meet up to standards," what i will say is this - it's now 2011 and this has been in development for years and this is their product, ladies and gentlemen this cesspool of a product can be had for 60, it's like having internet racist tough guys that don't have the courage to say it to someone's face, i don't see the purpose of trying to be nice about something when it doesn't deserve it, it's basically tough love, i don't mind people talking negative about me as long as it's true, now if it's not true then that's when i have a problem, get my drift?
