Halo 3: To hell with the flood. Completely lame. Ruined the campaign. And that Cortana level? GACH! I also would have released an AI patch for allies or something; that was just horrible. And that stupid little floating ball.. the Oracle or whatever. Jedis use those to train, for chrissakes! Why is it the final boss? It's bad enough that you have to listen to it talk so often. The game also needs more jetpacks. Twilight Princess: How about we just call it Ocarina of Time Redux and avoid disappointing people who still haven't played it? MGS4: Okay, I like this one a lot. But my expectations were impossible, and I might have been able to appreciate like everyone elseif the B&B corps weren't totally lame and irrelevant, especially after the likes of Foxhound and The Cobras. The boss fights in this one were almost as bad as those in Sons of Liberty. Completely redo those 4 boss battles and you've got yourself a masterpiece.. that, and add a little more depth to the Liquid Ocelot showdown. Way overrated, imo. And I almost forgot: the cover-firing mechanics are HORRIBLE.
I've been thinking, the game overall is a complete flop compared to the first. Gameplay/online/fun-wise. What epic did was go the realistic approach (most likely after looking at uncharted) and tuned everything up concerning animation. Problem with this is that it kills the fun factor. Any gears head would know the obvious difference in pace and feeling when playing the 2...its just too slow and heavy. Now add the fact that the MM system is flawed along side the lag and glitches i have a hard time accepting the score. The little improvements likes nade tags and stopping power made the game feel bad, you just can't get those random OMG 1 kills 4 moments or incredible shotty angles, etc. Epic IMO, tried too hard to be different and fresh but in the process killed what made the original fun. I also think the story was overdone for such a game. Gears should stick to a more simpler story telling..none of the emotional crap (obviously added after seeing MGS4 and how emotion adds depth to story) sadly epic..it doesn't suit every game. Just don't understand why the game changed so much in the way it plays and feels. Mind boggling. Sniper-PIG
gears got a 9.0 because Microsoft has the muscle to make it happen.
remember in Hitman: Blood Money where you attack the Whitehouse, gun down dozens of US Marines, Civilians, and Officials, and detonate a wing of the building? Nobody said a word about it.
