I think the fact that digital downloads being the same price or more as a new or used disk copy is a bit concerning. When that changes ill be down with digital.
i have to agree with tom on this, and the only reason i say that is because as a player myself, its fun for me personely to have a realistic game all around. i dont enjoy when you have a military shooter and an amazing story that is authentic and then the core combat is not realistic. just because you are shooting a gun and killing people does not meen that you have good combat. especialy in the case of medal of honor i used to play those game religiously but its pointless when they give me this real story and then let me run around shoot and get shot at while i regenerate my health, hiding behind a rock? i want to be engaged and have a sense of realism. i want to get shot once in the head and be dead, or get hit in the leg and have to limp or fall to the ground while i wait for the medic. thats engaging for myself. i also realize that some people like the opposite of that. and if i may say hardcore mode is not a justification for that, it snot the core game play. Greg Goodrich talked in circles about story and authenticity when that was not the question at hand. as i said you can bring a real life story to the game table, be authentic, but what is worth when your running around that immersive, authentic world and i have this sort of god mode that enables me to get hit multiple times without any kind of penalty. their is no depth there. if your going to make an authentic game make the whole game authentic. DO NOT say that you have a authentic game and then say "oh well everything is real but when you get shot ,just stand behind a rock for a second and you be fine again"... what? little redundant.all though i have not always agreed with McShea, i will defend him here and he was in the right to bring up a very interesting point. and if i may say Greg acted very unprofessional in the interview not letting McShea say all that much and then talk over him. and then make rude jokes. i will not buy that game personly for other reasons, but now i have another.
