Why does every AAA game that uses the Unreal Engine get so much underserved hate? SparkyProtocolI hope Borderlands breaks this chain.

[QUOTE="SparkyProtocol"]Why does every AAA game that uses the Unreal Engine get so much underserved hate? aaronmullanBecause people are stupid :) I fixed the previous statement. I figured I'd help out in some way. People like to feel like their opinion matters, they like to think "oh, I'm being controversial by saying such and such". Well honestly the UE is the best that I can think of, that is why so many games use it. If you don't like UE games, you pretty much don't like games, at least this gen.
[QUOTE="SparkyProtocol"]Why does every AAA game that uses the Unreal Engine get so much underserved hate? aaronmullanBecause people have opinions :) Not a very compelling reply. I could bring up a very offensive example of how... not smart that reply would be in alot of situations, but it will definetly brake TOS.

True, that's why people rate games. :s

I haven't listened to any ratings in a long time, I used to trust gamespot, but then the whole, you know, kane and lynch thing went down. Now I just judge for myself.Because people are stupid :) I fixed the previous statement. I figured I'd help out in some way.

Why does every AAA game that uses the Unreal Engine get so much underserved hate? SparkyProtocolI've said this a many times before, but I guess I'll say it again. It is the cool thing to do to hate on things that are popular on teh Internets. Anyway, I played the demo skeptical but overall thought it was a pretty good game. It's not a day one buy for me, but I'll get it eventually.

I mean, I liked Lost Odyssey way more than Bioshock, and they're both supposedly in the RPG genre, and both use UE3 same for mass effect

Nope, but I have a lot of trouble believing some people on here. People who say halo has terrible graphics, people who try to incite a flame war basically, I'm sure some people actually believe what they say on system wars, but half the time I believe they are only trying to fuel the "war".[QUOTE="aaronmullan"] Because people are stupid :)Jandurin
haha. I hate graphics threads, but that would be a funny one to be in.People who say halo has terrible graphics

i love fueling the war, too, btw. :lol:but half the time I believe they are only trying to fuel the "war".

No like "Why do you hate a certain race of people and feel that yours is superior?" Ignorant Racist: Because I have my opinions. It needs a compelling argument. :|
9.5, but im still a skeptic, I feel like I'm one of the very few who thought of the demo as "meh".Did they give it a score? I can't wait for the PC version to come. This game is going to be awesome.

Man I love how damn elitist people on this forum are, Bioshock was a great game that many millions of people enjoyed. I'll never understand why people get so mad when a video game doesn't live up to their expectations. Its a damn GAME. Play it for what it is, have fun, and if you don't like it then don't talk about it any longer. For the record: I loved Bioshock; had an incredible time with Fallout 3; worshipped Blue Dragon; and greatly enjoyed many other games that people said were "dumbed down" from some mythical predecessor that 9/10 of the aforementioned bashers more than likely aren't old enough to even have played within the context of games releasing around the same time.TheSystemLord1
Yup, pretty much. It happens with Halo, GTA, BioShock, etc. Lots of people like the smaller games, as it makes them feel that they belong to more of a grassroots fanbase that doesn't feature the majority. Honestly, for the most part, I enjoy big and small games. I mean, there's some games I don't like at all (ie: MGS4), but I'll admit it's quality. It's rubbish to me, though.
Yeah, they can form their own opinions, but if the critics say it's a great game, it's a great game to them no matter how SW likes it or not. GTA IV already proved this.it means its the sleeper hit of the year/summer guys. jeesh. and no matter what the minority says on SW, thelarge majority of critics loved this game (95%)

Yeah, they can form their own opinions, but if the critics say it's a great game, it's a great game to them no matter how SW likes it or not. GTA IV already proved this. The probability of a random gamer liking a high scoring game by critics compared to a lower scoring game I believe is much higher. Take that for what you will. Obviously not everyone is oging to LOVE the highest scoring games of any year (MGS4 is a good example for me) but I think the odds of you being dissapointed are lower.it means its the sleeper hit of the year/summer guys. jeesh. and no matter what the minority says on SW, thelarge majority of critics loved this game (95%)

I;ve seen that happening a lot, I agree.ah man, from the demo i found the game was very good, i didn't know it was as bad as bioshock, come on batman asylum can't be that bad, well at least from the demo
[QUOTE="me_rock"]me too. i guess people like to dump on things just because they are popular.lol a lot of people sure hate Bioshock. Well it was one of my favourite games this gen, just amazing experience. Anyways comparing that to Batman is weird, their not even the same type of game.

Or maybe people got bored by the game? Just like Mass Effect, I boght both games on 360, never finished them.
Bought both games on PC, and while I do feel the PC versions of both games are superior (especially mass effect), I still couldn't finish them.
Bioshock in particualr had some of the weakest gunplay I've seen. Electric shock, wrench all the way through is no fun for me. You want goodies? YOU WANT TEH LOOT!?! Sorry, gotta play pipe dream 5000000 times over and over to get it. Want to upgrade your stats? Here, here is a camera, take pictures and you will cause more damage ftw? The story was pretty engaging but seriuosly, the gameplay is so damn bland. Like Ramen without the flavors. Like popcorn without butter.
IMO.
im still having doubts on this game.. usually movie turned games are almost crap and flops.. guess we will find out..
[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]Jandurinmy problem with it had nothing to do with System Shock 2, which I've never played, and everything to do with the game itself.
:o Something we agree on.
Get your eyes checked out. Bioshock...HIDEOUS?! That does not compute. Bioshock looks pretty ugly, at least by today's standards.[QUOTE="MerisYaki"]
They both do look graphically hideous..

Today standards are same as in 07 (crysis) and look wut we r getting in 09 (The Conduit). Bioshock looks great that why 2K is not even upgrading its engine for Bio2[QUOTE="MerisYaki"]
